Post Malone album review
Post Malone just recently released his newest album on September 6th named Hollywood’s Bleeding. Post Malone released the smash hit album Beerbongs & Bentleys in April of 2018, which fans couldn’t get enough of. In my opinion, Beerbongs & Bentleys was a great example of the true talents Malone can bring to the table. After being nominated for a Grammy this past year, Hollywood’s Bleeding was eagerly anticipated by his fans across the globe. Malone releases music that comes di

Seniors win Toga Day for first time in three years as part of goal to win the bucket
For three years seniors failed to win their Toga Day during Spirit Week. Until this year. This year seniors won Toga day with 72.3% participation, blowing out the other grades. Groves Student Congress (GSC) decided to call Toga Day, “Mamma Mia” Day this year because the setting, Greece, for Mamma Mia, fits the theme and is this year’s musical. Senior GSC leader Kaitlyn Ziegele feels this inspired more students to participate in Toga Day. “We on GSC decided it to call it ‘

Lost family
John was just the nice 18-year-old who lived in the basement in his own bedroom, always smiling. John came to our family from a foster home of five. He had to leave because of numerous fights in the family and the invasion of his privacy when his foster parents installed cameras where he slept. My parents learned about his plight from our church, Brightmoore Christian, and decided he would live with us. From the moment I saw John, I knew he was family. It's amazing how one pe

Melanie Martinez K-12 album review
After four years of zero new songs or albums, Melanie Martinez has finally returned to the spotlight. Martinez's previous album Crybaby was amazing because her songs talk about controversial topics without shoving her polemic down our throats. For Martinez, making music is not about the “fire” beat or the “crazy good” rap verse. It’s about getting an important message out to her listeners in a creative way. One of the more popular songs from the new K-12 album, "Wheels on the
