10 Songs That Celebrate Winter
Once upon a time, some people believed that winter was caused by the vegetation goddess Persephone, also known as Kore and Proserpina, returns to the Underworld, taking the ability to grow crops with her. Boreas, the Greek god of the north wind, was the source of all the cold winds. People later spoke of Old Man Winter and Jack Frost, the personifications of ice, snow, and the freezing cold of winter. (Remember the 1979 stop-motion animated TV Christmas special?)

Beyond the Mainstream: YouTube. Top Story - November 2018.
I get pretty tired of the radio. Not the content so much as the format of it. They take a good song and proceed to viciously stomp its every beat and tempo switch into your brain to entice you to keep returning to that specific radio program—which, yeah from a business standpoint, I understand but as a music lover, it just kind of makes me tired. So most days I actually connect to my phone Bluetooth and cruise some channels on YouTube that I stumble upon at home when I've got the proper amount of time to coast the search results for whatever music style I'm digging at the moment. I've come across some real gems on YouTube, and I always suggest these channels to my friends when they admit to wanting to find some new music different from the overplayed "Top 40 hits."

An Alternate Winter Playlist
If you’re like me, then, despite the fact it’s November, you’ve already found yourself bored by the sheer amount of Christmas songs sneaking their way onto the radio and television screen. No, I’m not the 2018 answer to Scrooge, but there’s only so much Band Aid I can listen to before I never want to hear the supergroup again. This year, I’ve reached my limit in mid-November.

10 Best Dancehall Artists of All Time
Aptly named after the venues in which the Jamaican music was played, dancehall music owes its origin to reggae, and dancehall artists are often considered reggae or hip hop artists as well. The development of this genre of music began in 1970s Jamaica as a somewhat sparser version of traditional reggae. Many of the best dancehall artists rose to fame during this time, but the movement and genre weren't done growing. Today, dancehall is no longer a genre you haven't heard of and is most significantly characterized by a combination of reggae influences, Jamaican Patois or Jamaican creole, and synthetic influences. So, from those origins as a localized offshoot of reggae, to the commercial success of hit dancehall artists today, here are some of the best of the genre.
