My Top 10 Taylor Swift Songs
Taylor Swift, an artist that has been in the music industry since 2006. In the beginning she started as a country singer quickly making waves into eventually becoming the biggest country star in the world to eventually becoming the Taylor Swift we all know and love today. After all the heartbreaks, controversies, and shaming. Taylor Swift has always stayed true to her craft and that's why many up and coming singers and songwriters see her as an inspiration. So without further ado here are My Top 10 Taylor Swift Songs:

Top 10 Best Albums
To start off, I would like to say this is just my opinion and that music is a very subjective art form, so everyone has their own top ten, and this is my top ten albums from #10 to #1 based off of how the music reaches me through my mind, body, and soul. And I would also like to state that I do have a wide taste for music that includes many genres that go from classical to pop to hip-hop/rap and even techno, etc., so I hope some of you can find something new to enjoy out of these ten amazing albums.

Eight Taylor Swift Songs I'd Play for My Younger Self
I was nine when Taylor Swift’s debut album was released. I consider myself someone who has always been a Swiftie, although at that age (in the mid-2000s especially), kids don’t really know about fandoms and online communities. I just knew there was a sweet girl with gorgeous, almond-shaped eyes lying on the ground singing a song called “Tim McGraw” at the top of the country music video countdowns every single week. I was as hooked as a nine-year-old could be.

Reason First: Best Hip Hop Artists Who’ve Discovered Dreadlocks and Maintained Success and Credibility Listed from the Starter Lock Stage to the Adult Stage
Christian mythology holds that the judge Samson drew strength from his flowing locks. Has this idea of growing one’s hair to increase virility played itself out in Hip Hop? Terrence “Pusha T” Thornton, famous for maintaining his cornrows and braids, declares in the 2012 smash remix to “Don’t Like” that the “power’s in [his] hair…” While the mysticism does not hold water, there is some truth to the idea of artists growing out their hair to boost visibility, sales and streams, and make concert show appearances more memorable. The women will adore the dreadlocks as sexy. The men will want to grow their own set of dreads so that the former may be just as attracted to them as they are to the recording artists. The maintenance regimens associated with hairstyles like dreadlocks make them at once challenging and a breeze. Just a single wash a week and plenty of moisturizer will keep those dreads in excellent condition. For rappers like Lupe Fiasco who sported a close-shaved head when he entered the Rap world, to dreadlocks, to now a close cropped small Afro with the sides cut close, the trend seems to fluctuate among individuals. In an era where ballplayers and Hip Hop artists had shaved their cornrows and opted for conventional haircuts such as Allen Iverson (who reverted back to cornrows), Carmelo Anthony, Ludacris, Fam-Lay, and a host of others in anticipation for the President Barack Obama Administration, the artists of this list have taken the dreadhead look to another level. So, get your palm rolling tutorials and tightening gel for, Why Are You Ranking: Best Hip Hop Artists Who’ve Discovered Dreadlocks And Maintained Success and Credibility from the Starter Lock Stage to the Adult Stage.

My Favourite Film Soundtracks
My Favourite film soundtracks One of the main components to a film becoming epic or memorable is the soundtrack. Music added to a dramatic scene can make your hairs stand on end, or it can define a scene and make it a classic. Music in a film can be the stitching that makes it all neatly tie together. This is a list of my very own favourite film soundtracks. I based the list on soundtracks that I personally remember and that have stood out in my mind. So these are not necessarily the best films or the best soundtracks just my own personal opinion.

The "Epic" Playlist
Hello, and welcome back to Silver Linings where I rattle off the best of... well... whatever I feel like. I love music. I think I established that over the past year since I actually went to bat for Lionel Richie and John Barry's film scores. I can find something to like in just about every era and genre. I've used many words to describe songs over the years, but there's one word I've used that I don't think gets used often enough. That word is "epic".

Girl Groups to Listen To
From the Spice Girls in the 90s to Little Mix now, the world has seen a whole lot of girl groups. The Fader released an article in June of 2018 hosting the question, "Where are all the girl groups?" In the article, they mentioned that it seemed like the world had a plethora of boy bands, but the girl groups were nowhere to be found. Then, they spent half of the article talking about boybands. Here's a hint: maybe, if they hadn't done so much in-depth research on the boybands of today, they would've been able to find some girl groups like the ones I'm about to mention. Here, the Fader, I did the dirty work for you!

7 Good Songs from Awful Bands Pt. II
If you've read any of my work thus far, you know that I love to hate things. It's a passion of mine, honestly. However, every now and then, I like to sprinkle in some positivity on top of all the detestation. Woot. Now, as the title suggests, this is of course a part II, and part I of this series will be linked at the end. I think this least needs no further explanation, so let us begin with:
