Her critically acclaimed debut album, Sour, was released on May 21, 2021. It was preceded by two more singles, “Deja Vu” and “Good 4 U“, with the latter becoming her second single to debut at number one in the US.
“Brutal” is one of eleven songs from Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album Sour. The song resents the idea that one’s teenage years are their best years and shares a sentiment of teenage frustration.
Rodrigo and the track’s producer Dan Nigro wrote the song in two weeks as a last minute addition to the album after the unprecedented success of her debut single “drivers license“.
Kate Anna Rusby (born 4 December 1973)is an English folk singer-songwriter from Penistone, Barnsley, West Riding of Yorkshire, England. Sometimes called the “Barnsley Nightingale”, she has headlined various British national folk festivals, and is one of the best known contemporary English folk singers.

Underneath The Stars was Kate Rusby’s sixth album released in 2003. Cruel features on the album and is a traditional song from Lancashire. I’m not sure exactly when this performance is from but it’s somewhere between 2003 and 2008.

Bahari is an American alt pop,electronic and dark pop musical duo, previously a trio, composed of Ruby Carr and Natalia Panzarella. Sidney Sartini left the band in 2018.
18-year-old Southern California singer, songwriter carolesdaughter, born Thea Taylor, translates turmoil and disorder into oddly soothing pieces of alternative pop. Throughout her life she often felt like an outsider where she would spend a large part of her turbulent youth hopping between schools before eventually deciding to drop out, this lead to her widening her musical palette and stumbling upon the world of punk, hardcore, and goth. During this time she went on multiple trips to rehab before discovering that music was what she wanted to pursue which allowed her to become the unapologetic heroine we know and love today.
Her latest track is titled violent and came about because of a toxic relationship she was apart of and this track was her cathartic release that allowed her pent up resent to finally be released. Somber 808s melt together with a raw acoustic guitar melodies as she delivers these vengeful and fury filled lyrics with her ethereal vocal, adding another spellbinding dynamic to the violently innocent piece. This is only the beginning of carolesdaughter who’s quirkily haunting and demonic sound stands out amongst the crowd in the best way imaginable.
Within the Ruins is an American progressive metalcore/deathcore band from Westfield, Massachusetts, United States. They are currently signed to eOne Music and Good Fight Music. The group has released six studio albums and three EPs.
