How 90's music inspired fashion by:
Jazmine Cole
Many cool styles come and go, but some, like biker shorts and overalls, keep reappearing. Recent years saw biker shorts in everyday wear, just like the 80s and 90s. Overalls, popularized by Rosie the Riveter in the 60s, are back with teens. Baggy clothes, rocked by TLC and Destiny's Child, are a big deal again, with teens and adults sporting them: fashion trends cycle, each generation leaving its mark while reviving past styles. The future holds more comebacks, keeping fashion exciting!

TheWeatherisgettingwarmer,Whatareyourfavoritestaplepieces?
My favorite style is definitely baggy pants with tight tops. I love to wear baggy jeans or sweatpants with a tank top and a baggy sweater. I think it suits me very well
Whatareyourleastfavoritefashionstylesandthemes?
I am not the biggest fan of the “preppy” style. I don’t like normal leggings because I don’t like how they feel on my skin I also don’t like jeans from Zara as they are very high waisted and it’s just not my style
Wheredoyoufindinspiration?
I get inspiration from my friends or on social media If I see something my friend is wearing and I like the style, I’ll ask them where they got their clothes from. I also get inspiration from social media platforms such as Tiktok, Instagram, and Pinterest. I like to buy clothes from Hollister, Garage, H&M, Old Navy, and the website called Edikted. I think they have very cute clothes and I love to shop there!
Who’syourfavoriteMusicArtist?Why?
I would have to choose Drake because he has a huge variety of different music styles within hip hop/r&b/rap: unique within the rap industry
Howdoestheirfashionsensehelpyoursdevelopovertime?
My fashion has been impacted since he wears more baggy/dark tones - I wear more cool tones and outfits with hoodies, cargo, etc. it’s developed from being more basic like wearing a hoodie and leggings to more authenticity through jewelry, shoes, etc.

How soul music moves the black community
By Jordan Nelson
Soul music wasn't just for celebrations; it offered comfort and a shared voice during struggles. Rooted in the gospel's soulful cries and rhythms, it expressed the full spectrum of the Black experience - the pain of hardship, the joy of community, and the unwavering spirit of resilience Artists like Marvin Gaye tackled social issues head-on in songs like "What's Going On," while soulful love ballads by Aretha Franklin offered a temporary escape from everyday troubles This powerful music became a soundtrack for the Civil Rights Movement, uniting communities through backyard cookouts filled with soulful melodies and anthems demanding change. Even today, the legacy of soul music lives on, inspiring new generations of Black artists like Alicia Keys and John Legend. These contemporary artists carry the torch, keeping the spirit of soul alive with modern productions infused with the genre's signature rhythms and raw emotions Soul music remains a powerful force, reminding everyone of its enduring power to unite, uplift, and inspire
