A Young Artist With Mature Talent: 'Sour' Album Review
There is a reason why Olivia Rodrigo is a rising star. Her debut album, Sour, has mastered the juxtaposition of experienced songwriting and a fresh-faced performance. The only other young artist I know can do that is Taylor Swift, which explains the comparison between the two ladies.

Vocal Is My Therapy. Top Story - September 2021.
Why do I need therapy, you ask? Well, I'm experiencing a lot of anxiety for two reasons. One, I got a new job that's been stressful. Two, my birthday is coming soon. I will be turning thirty this year (as I am writing this). To be honest, I am not looking forward to it. For the first time in my life, I'm not looking forward to my birthday. Sad, right? To me, thirty is the end of being young and the start of getting old. I know that's dumb, but it's how I feel. I want to either repeat my twenties or stall the aging process altogether. But life doesn't work that way. I got to learn to accept that. Luckily, I have found a place of solace and peace. It's a place of belonging and artistic thinking. That place is called Vocal. Why is Vocal therapy for me?

What Did You Expect: A Loki Poem
Quick Intro: I sometimes write poems or song lyrics (which I only sing in my head) that are inspired by TV shows or movies that I watch. Right now, one of my geeky obsessions is the infamous Marvel villain, Loki. Whether it's the Avengers franchise or the Thor trilogy, that character keeps me glued to the screen. So, of course, I'm a fan of his new series on Disney Plus. Not just because I love the character, but because that show really delved into his psyche. Who is Loki? What makes him tick? Can we ever know for sure who he is or what he wants? I went down that rabbit hole while writing this poem. I hope you guys like it!

Into The Storm: An Avatar Poem
Quick Intro: I have always fiddled around with writing poetry and song lyrics (which are sung only in my head). Sometimes, my work is inspired by films and TV shows that I watch. It's like I created a soundtrack for what entertains me. So, I decided to post one of these poems on Vocal to see how people react. This one was written for one of my favorite animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender. The first, part is written from Aang's point of view, and the second part is Zuko's point of view. Enjoy!

Walter White's Fate on 'Breaking Bad' Was Completely Avoidable
I love a good TV fan theory. They are just so clever and strange. When I'm in the mood to go down the rabbit hole of theories, I turn to Reddit. That's where I found a theory by a user named Kumquat Vaillant, who is a fan of the critically-acclaimed drama series, Breaking Bad.

The Evolution Of Taylor Swift
There are many reasons why Taylor Swift has become an iconic singer/songwriter in her own right. The personal and artistic lyrics are enough to cement her name in history. She also manages to succeed in multiple genres and overcome staggering controversies. Taylor has evolved not only as a musician but as a person. That evolution is evident in her extensive discography. She has gone through many phases in her already long career.
