Drew Norman is a 16-year-old student, writer, athlete, music-lover, and proud Slytherin from Atlanta, GA. When she's not listening to music, you can find her... well, probably still listening to music, actually. She never stops. Ever. When she's not writing, though, she can usually be spotted reading, eating (usually some flavor of PopTart--preferably Hot Fudge Sundae), or scrolling despondently through pictures of puppies she will never own on Pinterest. She's also rumored to be a distant cousin of Beyoncé, but this is unconfirmed as of press time. Twitter: @scoobyDREW__ ~~ Spotify: @drewnorman83

Album Review: Harry Styles – “Harry Styles”

Ever since the formation of One Direction in 2010, it’s been clear Harry Styles is a star. The piercing green eyes, the deep British accent, the long curly locks and the increasingly eccentric wardrobe… he seemed destined to become a…

Album Review: Cashmere Cat – “9”

I first fell in love with Magnus Høiberg completely unintentionally. Back in 2014, I was a huge fan of Ariana Grande—still am, actually—and listened to her album My Everything on a constant loop. I particularly loved the song “Be My…

Album Review: Tinie Tempah – “Youth”

Youth, Tinie Tempah’s first album in four years, is a pleasant if a little scatterbrained reintroduction into the British rapper’s sound—heavily influenced by dancehall, grime, self-reflection, and braggadocio. Sadly, the rapper’s many delightful high points on the album are balanced…

Album Review: Drake – “More Life”

“I get a blank page when I try to draw a comparison/I’m getting straight to the point with it,” rapped Drake on the title track of last year’s blockbuster VIEWS. Sadly, his much-hyped fourth studio album was too-often exactly the…
