As a carefree college student with plenty of time to kill after classes and before marching band duties, I prided myself on staying on top of all the new music that came out every day.
It wasn’t that hard for me to stay in the know, since there was an abundance of blogs showcasing new artists, and my dorm mates were generous with their musical recommendations. Even after I graduated from my alma mater, I stayed in all types of musical circles that never let me fall behind whenever a new song by a popular or emerging artist started gaining popularity.
