James Blake

Not really. James Blake mixed with some Drake. Conclusion? James Drake. I am not a fan of mash-ups. Girl Talk should just stop. Seriously, GT, stop. However, if you love James Blake as much as I do, this is quite the fun remix of Blake n' Drake. The remix includes multiple of Blake's songs such as "Limit to Your Love" and Drake's most famous songs like, "Forever." Therefore, the entire track is just long enough for that train ride or walk home from work. Give it a listen -

Cults

Cults' new album, "Cults," was recently released and in perfect time for that summer playlist. You probably recognize their most famous single, "Go Outside," because of its catchy sing-a-long essence over the simple and endearing xylophone beats. This song is one of my favorites for various reasons. It is not only suitable in the beginning of the morning to wake up to, but also after a long day when you just need an energy boost. The teenage-friendly and girl-power-esque lyrics such as, "It's good to go out cause if you dont you'll never make a memory that will stay,"pressures you to put on them shoes and actually go outside. Sweet, right?
