Two Undiscovered Bands with Music That Will Be Stuck in Your Head All Day
One of my favorite things to do is to find new music from unsigned artists and bands. There are so many humans in today’s world just trying to make music and share what they feel through an outlet that is easily relatable. We all have our own style and taste to music, but I do like to consider myself someone who is open to listen to all kinds of music. My boyfriend is in a metal core band (Devil in the Details, check them out!) and I could not be any prouder of the music they make. I also listen to artists like Post Malone, Julia Michaels, Khalid, and bands such as Neck Deep, Knuckle Puck and many others. The point is, do not let the term of genres shy you away from music you could potentially fall in love with. Keep your mind open to the art that any individual could create.

Untarnished Songs by Bands Who Are Over-Played on Radio
We all hate it when our favorite bands and artists become too "popular," and you become sick and tired of hearing the same song on every single radio station. Bands like Twenty-One Pilots and Imagine Dragons are victims of this. Some will stay true fans and still love all songs written by these artists, but I personally have stopped listening to the radio so that songs don’t become ruined by the Main Stream Radio Stations. Here are some of my top songs that have been untouched by those radio stations, by some of our favorite popular artists and bands.

'The Greatest Showman' Soundtrack Review
The Greatest Showman hit the theaters December 8, 2017. Since then, it has not done anything but receive amazing buzz about the movie, the acting, the singing, and the music. I saw the movie awhile back, and I have listened to the soundtrack on repeat more than once. Each song is different than the last and each song has a different story from the real world incorporated into the movie as well. Songs from this album have reached the charts with famous song writes who helped along the way. The Greatest Showman is about PT Barnum and how he started the original circus would eventually lead to the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus. This movie focuses on the original story of PT Barnum. Here is my review on The Greatest Showman Soundtrack along with a synopsis on the movie as I tell the story of each song.

Apple Music vs. Spotify
The long-waited debate of Apple Music vs Spotify has arrived. I have been a user of both Apple Music and Spotify and here is my review over both apps and the pros and cons of each. I took five separate areas to focus on. Apple Music and Spotify both have the same concept of online music streaming for users. One difference is that you can still use Spotify if you are not a Premium owner. You just use your desktop or laptop to download songs and they will download to your app and account. For the sake of argument, I compared Apple Music and Spotify Premium.

Justin Timberlake: 'Man of the Woods' Review
After the 20/20 Experience release that Justin Timberlake made, Man of the Woods had mixed reviews and was claimed "average at best." Justin wanted to tie back to his Tennessee roots with this new album and incorporate new and old styles of his earlier albums. With features from Alicia Keys and Chris Stapleton, JT adds a little bit of everything to his new album. I sat down and listened to every second of every song and broke it down for you all. I rated each song out of a scale of one to five. Here are my thoughts on Justin Timberlake’s new album, Man of the Woods.

51 Songs to Add to Your 'Feels' Playlist
Some days just get us down in the dumps. Music has always been my remedy to get me through a rough day. I do not have a specific playlist that I go to when I am sad, I usually just search for a song in my songs list that matches my mood. I decided to go through my songs and take as many as I could to compile a large list of the feels music. Take what you want from the songs and listen to as any as you please. I promise they will not disappoint you.
