Upcoming Music

By Kylie Sevits (8th grade)

Music has been around for a very long time, human beings have found comfort and happiness in it. There are many different music genres to choose from, some of the most popular like Rap, Pop, and Country to some of the least popular like Phonk to Cli-Fi, Dystopia, or Goth. People have different opinions on certain genres of music, for example, some people don't like Country music. Some people like listening to artists that aren’t popular, and some don’t mind whether others are popular or not. Some people associate music with their style, or music could be their whole personality! Anyways, what matters is what you like! Here is some music being released in May of 2023.

They all asked for their names not to be mentioned except for Kaz (Picture below), so I will not put them. There was Pebble Brain by Lovejoy, Like..?
