4 Upcoming Albums That Need To Drop
Cabin 24/Mom + Pop Music

In the past 7 months, we have been gifted some incredible albums. Beyonce’s “Lemonade,” Chance the Rapper’s “Coloring Book,” Drake's "VIEWS," and Rihanna’s “Anti” are a few titles that come to mind, with many other massively successful hits as well. It is unbelievable to consider the fact that we still have almost 6 more months of albums coming our way before 2017.

Here is a look at what’s in store for the rest of 2016.

1. Ingrid Michaelson, "It Doesn't Have to Make Sense"

As you might have assumed, considering her single “Hell No” can be heard on the radio now, singer/songwriter Ingrid Michelson is planning on releasing a new album on August 26th. Titled “It Doesn’t Have to Make Sense,” the album should hopefully be as fun as her last, 2014’s “Lights Out” ( featuring the song “Girls Chase Boys,” which still plays on the radio to this day).

2. Local Natives, "Sunlit Youth"

Indie rock band Local Natives have a new album coming out September 9th. Following a three-year hiatus, the album "Sunlit Youth" is surrounded with high hopes and expectations beyond belief. The band’s interesting blend of harmonies and folky-rock has not disappointed up to this point, and hopefully the band can succeed in releasing another great album this fall.

3. Childish Gambino, TBA

While no official release date has been set, rapper Childish Gambino (aka actor/comedian Donald Glover) has announced a new album set for later this year. He recently announced an exclusive listening party to promote the album, which is rumored to be titled “PHAROS,” dated for this September at Joshua Tree, California. Childish Gambino’s biggest singles like “3005,” “Sweatpants,” and “Sober” all show off his unique style of blending casually clever rhymes with deeply personal lyrics, and hopefully “PHAROS” is no different. We can most likely expect to see the album released this fall.

4. Haim, TBA

Haim, the rock band made up of three sisters Este, Danielle, and Alana (as well as drummer Dash Hutton of no relation), showed off their incredible knack for music with their 2013 album “Days Are Gone.” The sisters’s one-of-a-kind blend of old school rock, hip hop, and pop caught the attention of not only top critics, but also top musicians (especially Taylor Swift, who the band frequently hangs out with and just finished opening for on the 1989 World Tour). They have kept themselves busy for the past three years, between touring multiple times and taking time to write the next album, and plan on releasing their next album in late 2016.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
