Today songs are being churned out to create the newest and biggest hit. It is like a science. Producers and pop artists know what we, the society, wants to see and hear. Justin Bieber has hit after hit that gets old after the 5th time you hear it at a bar or in your car. Sure, his songs are fun and catchy; but what about real, thoughtful, emotional music? What about the songs you can listen to on repeat and hear a new message spoken to you every time? I never used to be the biggest music person but the more artists I find the more I find that these artist are making raw, soul searching, emotion wrecking absolutely beautiful and joyful music. Next time you need a new song check some of these out instead of Taylor Swift or J Biebs.
