Need new artists to listen to? Here are 13 artists that I listen to that not a lot of people know about! This list consists of pop, pop-rap, contemporary R&B, R&B/soul, pop/rock, and alternative/indie - all in that same order. A couple of these artists are also YouTubers. So, if you like their music, I bet you'll like their YouTube videos, as well!

1. Lauv

Lauv is mostly known for his pop song "I Like Me Better," but "Chasing Fire" is probably my ultimate favorite song of his. I absolutely love to listen to this while walking on the beach!

2. Tyler Shaw

Tyler Shaw's style of pop in this particular song is the sweetest and most adorable thing ever. "Wanted" is also another song of his that I absolutely love!

3. Ruel

Ruel's style of pop music is more laid back with chill vibes and "Not Thinkin' Bout You" is just that!

4. AJ Mitchell

If you were to know AJ Mitchell, you would probably know him for his pop song "Slow Dance" with Ava Max. "Hate That I Love You" is my favorite song of his, though.

5. Ellise

No one I follow on Instagram also follows Ellise. Her pop songs "Keep It To Myself," "Love Made Me Do It," and "Pinky Promise" are my absolute favorites!

6. Alexander Stewart

I found Alexander on YouTube through one of his music cover videos. I remember I found him when he only had around 50,000 subscribers. Now he has 1.82 million! Despite his growth over the last couple of years, no one I follow on Instagram also follows him. His pop song "Best Damn Thing" is my favorite song he's released!

7. Jack and Jack

Jack and Jack is a pop-rap duo, and "Tension" is my favorite song they sing. They recently decided to make music as solo artists, and they're just as good as their duo songs!

8. Olivia O'Brien

Olivia O'Brien is mostly known for her pop song "Hate You, Love You" with G-Nash, but her most recent contemporary R&B song "NOW" is an absolute BOP!

9. HRVY

HRVY's latest pop song, "Good Vibes," is nothing like the previous music he's released, but it's such a great song to boost your mood if you're feeling a bit under the weather! The R&B version of his song "Younger" is also great one to listen to.

10. Franny

Franny Arrieta is a YouTuber who releases R&B/soul music, and I love both her videos and her music!

11. NEZZA

NEZZA is also a YouTuber who releases great R&B/soul music! Fun fact: she's actually best friends with Franny and does lots of collaboration videos with her!

12. The Vamps

The Vamps are mostly known for their pop songs "Somebody to You" with Demi Lovato and "All Night," but their first single for their upcoming album is definitely a big step up in their music! When they were starting off as a band, they first released pop/rock music but have switched over to pop in the recent years.

13. Memphis Wild

I somehow came across this guy's Instagram and absolutely loved his alternative/indie music!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
