Just days after the release of her long-awaited new album ‘Poster Girl,’ Swedish artist Zara Larsson is partnering with a fellow Swede, IKEA, for an International Women’s Day-themed virtual concert. Zara has already teased that the show will be shot like a music video with different sets and “worlds” to match the mood of each song. I definitely can’t wait to dive into the world of ‘Poster Girl’ on a day dedicated to powerful girls around the world!

MUSIC MONDAY: Springing into Spring with Vibrant Tunes

Although the weather may indicate otherwise, spring is officially here and a new playlist fit for the season is a necessity.

You may have noticed that there was no new Music Monday playlist on my blog in February. In case you missed it, I partnered with Girls’ Life magazine to curate five Valentine’s Day-themed playlists covering everything from love songs for happy couples to girl power anthems for the single and proud chicas. These playlists are guaranteed to hit you right in the feels all year long!

For this month’s playlist, I’m starting off spring on a musical high with 15 handpicked tunes that will bring out all the good vibes! Before you listen to it in full, preview my selections from three of the hottest artists in the industry.

“LIKE I WOULD” by Zayn

Zayn Malik broke off from his One Direction bandmates to take time off and experiment with new projects. Then, rumours started swirling about an official solo music venture. Zayn officially responded to the speculation by dropping his single “Pillowtalk” and giving fans their first taste of his new sound. Now, leading up to the release of the full-length disc ‘Mind of Mine’ on March 25, Zayn has been surprise releasing his favourite songs from the album. Fan-favourite “LIKE I WOULD” is an upbeat track about reconnecting with a former fling.
