January is here, which means it's time to put out with the old, and in with the new. Unless of course, you are like me and you appreciate the old much more than anything new. Music from the 90's and 2000's are some of my favorites, and throwbacks are definitely the way to my heart.

Old school music reminds us of the better days, times filled with scrunchies, Beanie Babies, lipgloss, chokers, and windbreakers, to name a few. We reminisce these times through the appreciation of great memories and even better music.
