Move over Tidal and Spotify, Apple Music has done it again with it's new Behind The Boards, a creative new take on the average playlist featuring artists and producers who have created some of the most memorable hits of the century.

It was moments into the "Behind The Boards: Rich Harrison" Apple Music playlist that I realized, a mistake was made. It started with Crazy In Love and by the point it got to Get Right by Jennifer Lopez, the whole entire game was messed up. I danced, I pranced and lost my mind and after listening to this playlist, you'll see why.

Rich Harrison, an alumnus of fellow HBCU Howard University, and Grammy award winning producer has undeniably created a number of the hottest club hits for the likes of R&B and hip hop megastars such as Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez and Ameriie. Harrison's and rich integration of percussion, piano, and trumpets creates the melodic up-tempo beats we all loved to work up a good sweat over.

Here are 5 Rich Harrison throwbacks that will get you hyped up this #ThrowbackThursday:

1. "1 Thing" by Ameriie

2. "Crazy In Love" by Beyonce

3. "Soldier" by Destiny's Child

4. "Why by Don't We Fall In Love"

5. "Get Right" by Jennifer Lopez

Check out the play list on iTunes, and If you can't get enough of Harrison, check out his latest work on Ameriie's latest EP, Drive which was tapped by Rolling Stone as the Best R&B Album of 2016!

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
