March is my favorite month (i'm definitely not biased because i was born in March). i thought about my songs of the month a few days ago and went "huh, it's funny how much my tastes can change in such a short amount of time." you'd think it would take much longer, right? of course, there's a few stragglers every month, but by the 2-month mark they've changed pretty significantly.
i originally made this just to share my favorite music here, but i noticed that watching the evolution is really cool as well. that's why i want to keep this up monthly even if nothing else on my site changes lol
i began this list on March 14th and adjusted it on the 31st. as always... not in any particular order, and explicit songs are tagged with the purple symbol!
a few weeks ago, at damn near 2 in the morning, i found out Luci4 had passed away. i'd JUST finished an hour-long marathon of listening to his stuff the day before, and he's been one of my favorite music artists for such a long time, so it was such a huge blow for me. for that reason, i wanted to put down a list of my favorite songs by him.
you probably have heard dozens of his songs on TikTok because that's how he went more mainstream, mainly during 2021-22 - plus, he's a major influence for a lot of newer SoundCloud/underground artists. i don't even really know how to describe his stuff, but it's an acquired taste for the most part. regardless, i think everyone could find at least one song by him that they think is good. i'll really miss Luci4
he was truly a production genius in his own right and there'll never be anyone like him in the music scene.
i'm not gonna bother with the purple symbol 'cause they're basically all explicit lol. i will also label artist names if need be with "cr."; they can't all be found under his main name because he went by several aliases. i might keep updating!!
- i really like this one because of this lyric "i don't really like talkin' to nobody, they always have an excuse / as to why they can't accomplish somethin', sounds like a problem for you" - unintentionally motivational AF
i recently got into Jamiroquai and they've taken over my brain. i love their music so much. i also found some old favorites from 2021-22 again, and they've re-entered my song rotation.
as a reminder, the purple symbol = explicit music
i am posting this 5 months later, lol. but i did keep a running list of my favorite songs at least once after i stopped updating my site for a bit. they didn't change from July to August, so i skipped a month... and i only had 17 this time around. don't ask me why, i don't remember!
i'm posting this on the last day of July, so i'm not gonna lie, my YouTube mixes have changed since then. however, since half the music i still listen to is recycled from last month and i wouldn't have 20 otherwise, i left most of the songs intact even though i'm not actively listening to them.
anyway, here's this month's list (not in order)!
i finally found something i could do with this section. i held off on adding it for SO LONG because i wasn't sure what to write about, but hey- a list of 20 songs i've listened to over the past month sounds like a good start to me!
these are in no specific order + for May AND June, since June just started and this section was nonexistent last month.
LAST THING! not all of these songs are clean. i will tag explicit songs with this symbol:
so, with that said, let's get into ittt
