The band consists of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook.  BTS co-writes and composes much of their work and is known to include social commentary, often incorporating criticism of today's society in their lyrics.  Many fans finds comfort in their music since they aim to include experiences everyone has felt in life (sadness, loneliness etc.), and aren't afraid to open up about their own struggles.  Today's song recommendation of the day is their intro: Never Mind. A song by the rapline (Mostly Suga) that was released on November of 2015. The track is featured in their album; The Most Beautiful Moment In Life, Pt. 2. This is actually my personal favorite amongst all of BTS's songs. I find the song very comforting and emotional and powerful and most of all motivating.  The so...

Alicia Keys - Underdog

Alicia Keys - as we all know - is an American musician, singer, composer etc.  Todays song recommendation of the day is her newly released hit song "Underdog" that was released on January of this year.  Personally I think the song is really great and I've actually had it on repeat the last couple of days!

ONE OK ROCK is a Japanese rock band formed in 2005. The band currently consist of Takahiro Moriuchi (Taka) - the vocalist, Toru Yamashita - the bandleader and guitarist, Ryota Kohama - the bassist and Tomoya Kanki who is the drummer. The song recommendation of the day is their song We Are from their album 'Ambitions' that was released on January 2017. Taka said this about the album: " We wanted to make an album where we can all sing along together. By singing strongly in unison about hope, we wish to reinforce the importance of not giving up". We Are really embodies that and is also my favorite song from the group. The lyrics are very meaningful and really gives the listener a feeling of empowerment and belongning. But the best part of the song have to be seing the live performances. First time I saw the live performance of We Are I got goosebumps and tears in my eyes. It's really a sight to behold! The audience are very active and sings along and theres...
