(You can access this playlist on Apple and Spotify; let me know what house song you'd add to this list!) Beyoncé is undeniable. Even autocorrect knows the drill (they graciously added the accent for me).

Listen to Absolutely. It’s not a comfortable, smooth ride; there’s rocks, flowers, a thunderstorm and dew.
Gossip Girl, Teen Wolf and Vampire Diaries all have a very specific, mid-to-late 2000s aura about them. Oversized neck ties, fedoras, ballerina flats and bedazzled flip phones are just some of the iconic imagery that comes to mind. These skinny box-dye blondes and frosted tipped faux-hawked twinks was the vibe of the time—not because that… Continue reading OneRepublic’s Roots: Dreaming Out Loud
YouTube is a magical place. There’s tutorials, commentary, and very silly videos of cats playing piano. Many of my intense and short lived obsessions were conceived there, some holding me hostage longer than others. One thing i’ve recognized about myself is my partiality for what isn’t evident—the solitary nature of things that aren’t commonly circulated… Continue reading Cold Heart: Thirdstory’s Blue Flame

Starting something is always a pain. That was the case for my journey into Frank Ocean. i can truthfully say that my taste for music was initially built on Coldplay's 4th studio album Mylo Xyloto, a serendipitous choice i made because i liked the album art. i'd grown tired of simply reading the limited selection… Continue reading Channel ORANGE: an Emotional Record Scratch
It’s January 17th, 2021. 11:08 pm. i finally started listening to Heaux Tales. As terrible as my memory is, you would think my reverence for singers like Jazmine wouldn’t make me wait nearly 10 days to listen to her latest project in 6 years. Unfortunately, the most consistent thing about me how is easily i… Continue reading Jazmine Sullivan: This Ones For The Heauxs
There are a very select few things that get me excited; updates of my favourite manga, a good tv show and discovering new music. You guessed it—its the latter. i came across Bree off of a Rickey Thompson instagram video (which is the most Gen Z way to find music); he was dancing to her… Continue reading Bree Runway, The Star You *now* Never Knew You Needed

At… Continue reading SE SO NEON: nonadaptation
