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!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
