The Universe is currently taking turns playing with different parts of my life. As if existing wasn’t hard enough, this past week decided to be extra emotional and completely unnecessary in how complicated every day turned out.

I first heard her voice on a Macklemore song. She caught me off guard but I was immediately looking up the rest of her work on all streaming services: I found two songs. I was disappointed, but I was already invested. So I patiently waited for a complete body of work and it has finally…
I have been waiting to write this post, I have sat in my feelings, I fell in love with the music and I have attempted to find the words that will accurately portray how amazing this duo is. The War and Treaty felt like magic the moment that their music hit my ears. Michael and…
So this Music Monday is coming at you a little later than usual, which mainly is because I wasn’t going to post anything today BUT I cannot get this song out of my head. I have been obsessed with Jessie Reyez since her song “Figures” first came into my life. She recently released a remix…
