I've Been in My Feelings (Music)

Sadly, I've gotten myself mixed up in my feelings... yes, it is true, I too am a human being. I have fallen for someone who I may never be able to be with (It's all quite ironic and glorious... even moreso if you know me and know how horrible I am when it comes to relationships and romance). I sometimes expect things from folks that they will never be able to give me, but thank goodness music has never failed me. I've been switching between a handful of songs in hopes that they will somehow help me get over said person and said feelings. I'm getting there.

*Each song is accompanied by a link so feel free to click away and have yourself a listen (especially if you've never heard the song before).
 I hope you are able to connect with at least one or two :) 

Jessie Reyez: Figures  And Shutter Island

Reyez is an up and coming Latina (Colombiana) artist from Toronto. Her Ep is entitled, Kiddo (both songs are on it). She's dope. 

SZA: Love Galore (Ft. Travis Scott)

If you haven't listened to her EP, Z, you really need to getcho life and click here. The song I'm featuring isn't on there, but you should know her stuff because her music is chill and epic at the same damn time. Okay, cool.

K.Flay: Blood in the Cut  
I gotta thank my wonderful mentor (Rhoda) for this wonderful discovery because she played it this weekend and I fell in love, instantly. I've since listened to a few other songs by K.Flay and she is pretty dope.

  

Kranium: We Can (ft. Tory Lanez) 

Gyptian: Wine Slow 

Halsey: Now or Never 

I really dig this song (gotta stick around to hear the beat drop haha). I haven't listened to her other stuff yet, but I plan to (just to see). Fun fact: she's mixed (her father is black and her mother is white). 

Ariana Grande: One Last Time 

I usually don't rock with her like that, but this song has been helpful.

Labrinth: Jealous

My homie (Diandra) put me on to this song and I must thank her for it because one, he/his voice is fabulous and two, this song is absolutely beautiful.

Julia Michaels: Issues

I love this song and I think she is killn the game. I really dig her live performance of this song (it sounds just like, if not better than, the recording... a lot of popstars don't got that). Not only is she a dope song-writer (shes like 24 and has written pop songs for folks like Justin Bieber, Gwen Stefani, and Britney Spears) but she has a pretty cool voice. 

That's all I got for now.
