Taylor Swift's "Invisible String" Is the New Anthem for Hopeless Romantics
The first strings of the four-minute and 13-second track sets us up for a fairytale, but not just any fairytale. This one takes us through the trials and tribulations of Taylor Swift's public and often ridiculed love life. She reflects on how each failed relationship brought her closer to the One. Although the song has a melancholy feel to it, she takes comfort in the fact that all of the pain and suffering led her to her current love.

The year 2020 has proven to be a real pain in every orifice on Earth. If there is something that humans need during this unprecedented time in our history, it's striving to find avenues to forget, for just a moment, the drastic changes occurring in daily life on a consistent basis.

Passed Down Like Folk Songs, They Will Last So Long: Ranking Tracks from Taylor Swift’s folklore
It’s safe to say the current situation of the world isn’t easy for any of us. I don’t know about you, but I have always turned to creative arts as a coping mechanism, and I found that films, tv shows and music have carried me through lockdown blues. Although they can’t substitute physically being somewhere else, at least I can travel in my mind, right?

That playlist
There are not very many things that stick with me year to year. Many things seem to be in flux. Music is one exception. It hasn’t gone anywhere. That’s my catalyst for getting chores done, my means for escape when ‘it gets too much’, and my gateway to prayer. It seems to make things better and easier. With music, I see the world through rose-colored glasses. It gives me the opportunity to define my world exactly as I want it.

Rapper Action Bronson Drops New Single “Latin Grammy’s”
Action Bronson, the 36-year-old rapper from Queens, New York, dropped his first single of 2020, titled "Latin Grammys." The single, which sits at 2 minutes and 50 seconds, fuses his signature pop culture references from Derik Jeter, football, and his neighborhood Flushing, Queens. With a Latin jazz-inspired horn section, is a welcome return to the music scene since his 2019 EP “Lamb Over Rice," which was released on November 22 of that year. The song features the humor that Action has brought since hitting the scene with 2010’s "Imported Goods." "Latin Grammys" references his love for pop culture via such lyrics as, "I fly the plane better than Tom Cruise / Drive cars like Dale Sr. with my feet up / Lotus pose like Shiva on the floor / For the fight with my seat next to Jeter."
