2. I'm On A Roll by Ashley O (Miley Cyrus)

Miley's new Netflix episode of Black Mirror had people a little spooked while also jamming in their seats. The songs she performed as her ulterego (no, not Hannah Montana) Ashley O were so iconic and empowering that you almost have to dance to them. Yeah, maybe the song was a cry for help in the show, but the beat is uplifting and anything Miley is incredible.

Ridin' so high, achieving my goals"
- Ashley O

7. Love U Better by Victória Monét

Victória Monét is on the rise and I am so happy about that. Her music is incedible. You may know her best as Ariana Grande's bestie and songwriter, but she also has created music of her own. This song is one that will make you feel like a goddess. Stand down, peasants.

I got you alone, but I don't wanna go
And darling, what you waiting there for?
I got you alone, but I don't really know"

Listen, I do not like country music. Unpopular opinion, but I have never been a fan. Until, I listened to the country pop queen that is Kacey Musgraves. This song is more on the emotional side, but will have you singing along over and over again.

"And I'm the kind of person who starts getting kinda nervous
When I'm having the time of my life"
- Kacey Musgraves

I miss the way that you laughed with me"
