2019: My New Year’s Goals

#Unfollows a Form of Rejection?

Recently, against my better judgement, I downloaded an app that tracks and reports Instagram unfollowers. Why? Well, a friend on Twitter mentioned she had recently done it out of curiosity and so I think that pressured me. I’m not quite sure why, but it rattled me. Am I shallow? It’s bizarre, and I picture my mom rolling her eyes, but it’s an odd psychology. Many of us use social to maintain relationships with those we care about, although we may never interact.

I have to start by sharing my obsession with Rationale. His album dropped last Friday and it has been on repeat all weekend long. His voice, the rhythm, it’s all just magical. You’ll find Oil and Water on this playlist, but be sure to check out all of his tracks — there isn’t one that will disappoint. A close runner up for favourite from this selection of tracks would be Jesse J’s Not My Ex. The lyrics are really beautiful and Jesse J delivers with passion.

I think this week’s selection is a sign that we’re going to have great music to vibe to the rest of the month. I’ve fallen head over heels for E^ST’s Life Goes On; Waterfall from Petit Biscuit (feat. Panama) and Elohim’s The Wave. What tracks do you have on repeat?

It was kind of quiet week in the realm of releases, but I’ve been able to find a few favourites that I think you’ll enjoy! I’m currently loving the collab between Macklemore and Kesha; Maggie Rogers‘s electro-folk single, Split Stones; Kim Petras‘s Hillside Boys sparkles like champagne; and Mark Forster‘s Kogong is the sound that the heart makes when you listen carefully.
