Wind - AkeboshiThis song is a song that shaped me entirely. I know this is a little nerdy, but it is the first outro to the anime Naruto. I first watched Naruto when around second grade. That was the moment I really fell in love with anime, comics, manga, and all this “nerdy”/awesome stuff today. This is where it all began. Whenever I listen to this song nowadays, I get the strongest sense of nostalgia. I sometimes even tear up to this. Absolute masterpiece.

Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper

This song has a lot of meaning because I think it’s a classic that everybody should know. It’s in a lot of movies and TV shows, and that's mainly where I was exposed to it. Anytime I think of the 80s-90s, this is THE song for that

Pursuit of happiness is like THE upbringing, party, and positive vibes. This is a song I like to play when im on aux, when im having a good time or when i do something big. Anytime i’m out with friends, were having a great time, this is the song I alwayds play. In this generation like 80% of people know this song(THEY SHOULD) so its a great song for the aux.

aruraian dance - Nujabes

This song is the perfect song to sit back and reflect. There have been times when music has been playing in the middle of the night, when I'm lying down staring at the ceiling, and this song always manages to end up playing. It reminds me of all the good, bad, easy, and hard times I’ve gone through. There's no specific mood to it, but it’s perfect for looking back and reflecting upon the decisions you've made, where you are currently, and how you got here.

I think this song is beautiful. It starts off with Rihanna's beautiful vocals and a good old Kanye verse. Then, later in the song, there are vocals from Alicia Keys, Fergie, and even John Legend. This is my running hype song, so it always keeps me going! The perfect pumped up beat to face any challenge.

We Are Young - fun.

To me, this is like THE radio pop song. It's so catchy and iconic. To this day, I am still listening to this. It reminds me of when I was really young, whenever this was playing, whether it was in the car, grocery store, or anywhere else, I would start singing it.

I chose this song because it explores themes of personal growth and the journey towards the top. The main idea is that despite struggles, you can find strength and become better. Every day I want to improve and become better. And this song talks about that journey

I love the vibes this song gives off. It gives off such a road trip type of vibe. I chose this because when im in aux in the car and my dad is driving, I always play this song. I love it because my dad always sings along, even when he doesn't get the lyrics right. When I saw Rex Orange County a while back, my dad and I were screaming our hearts out

Family Business - Kanye West

this song is dedicated not just to one person but to three. These three people are my brothers mean so much to me. I wouldn’t be the person I am without them. I chose this song because it's all about family. I also chose this because it is Kanye West, and he was one of the first artists who made me fall in love with music. Now, don’t hate me, but I think Kanye is the greatest rapper alive. (I DON'T SUPPORT HIS VIEWS). But my brothers are the ones who got me into Kanye West. They’re all older than me, so I grew up while they were all listening to people like Kanye West. I was so influenced by all the things around me, especially the things they liked, like music, drawing, anime, video games, or literally anything they did. I want to thank them for helping me grow as a person and really acknowledge them with this song.

This song is like one of my dad's favorite songs of all time. Whenever this is being played in the car, he is always singing it (ask Ryan and Omari about his singing, LOL). I also chose this song because whenever he hears it, he always reminds me of the first concert he took me to which was Tyler in 2022. When this song was playing, Tyler was dancing across the stage, and my dad always brings up how awesome that was.

Easy On Me Adele

I chose this because my mom loves Adele and I think she can really relate to the lyrics. A lot of the time she is always working, cleaning, cooking or staying occupied somehow. I think she goes a bit too hard on herself at times and that sometimes she needs to lay back and go easy on herself.

Love by Keyshia Cole is a great song for my homies because I feel like everyone knows it and It puts you in a mood where everyone is so joyous and singing. It takes me back to whenever this plays in the car with the homies or at dances.

I am such a huge Bruno Mars fan, it is insane. I think I'm such a big fan because of my parents. They've been playing and listening to him since I was a baby. I have yet to go to a concert, while my parents have seen him about 3 times. This is a favorite because it just speaks to me, and I personally think it's underrated and underappreciated. This is a song I can even relate to IFYKYK

Pink and White by Frank Ocean was my 7th grade anthem. It was my top 3rd song that year plus i connected to the lyrics and the meaning. The lyrics talk about how beautiful life is without always being perfect. During 7th grade I felt as if I had a lot of stress placed on me and the lyrics reminded me that not everything was perfect.

HYPOTHETICALLY, Mona Lisa would be the song I would play after scoring a date with the girl of my dreams. This song dropped when Spider-Man: Across Spider-Verse came out, and I remember seeing the movies with some of my homies and hearing this song, and I could not stop listening to it. This song reminds me of that movie and that summer, which was arguably a top 3 summer of my life. I still listen to this song whenever I'm in a joyous mood, and I can't wait to be playing this song all summer once again.

This is probably everybody's leadership song, but I think everyone who chose it had a good reason. This song was ALWAYS playing in class but especially during the haunted house build. The song talks about October, which is when we have our Hawktober Fest. I think everyone in the program really did fall in love with the program and the supporting people in it. All this song will do is remind me of this awesome journey.

I chose white ferrari because it talks about themes of nostalgia, love, and how fast time can go by. Whenever this song plays, I reminisce on the past and remember all the moments and experiences I've had. I know this is a song for sorrow, but like it’s sorrow in a good way, if that makes any sense. I'm glad to have experienced these moments and lived to my fullest.

I would use this song because it really reminds me who I was and what I liked back in 6th grade. I was THE biggest Tyler The Creator fan. There was something about his music that i enjoyed so much and I just couldnt get away from it. This was a song that really reminds me of back then. T was also my most listened to song of 2022.

I chose this because I feel as if when this plays, I can take anything on at full speed. I'm ready for whatever the future holds, and nothing can get in the way of me making my way and having a great time. No matter what might happen, I feel as if I could get through it, so don't stop me, don't stop me!

This whole 8th-grade year has been nothing but a party. There hasn't been a moment this whole school year that I haven't had fun. I'm so grateful to have such a supportive circle of friends with whom I can enjoy this year. I'm going to miss this so much, but with the time left in the year, I want it to stay sounding like this song. Let's end the year with a blast!

I'm choosing Connor Shaw as my agent because I believe he wants the best for me and will try to do what he can if it's in my best interest. A man fit for the job!

For my Muse, I'm not just going to go with one person, but with a group of people. These people are my amazing, supportive friends. They inspire me to keep going and strive to be the best as I can. I couldn't have done it without them.

I got the inspiration from the best turtle, Michaelangelo. You may know me as Michael, MJ, Mikey B, MJB, but now you can call me MC Mikey.

This is MJGB, also known as "Mindset Just Gotta Be" or my full legal name, "Michael John Gasic Belmondo". It's sort of a double entendre. "Mindset Just Gotta Be" means focusing on maintaining a positive outlook on things. I got the cover inspiration from Jaden Smith's 2018 Album "SYRE". I whipped up the cover in Canva.

This is my best friend right here Jayden. Ive known Jayden for about 8 years now ever since we met in elementary. If you were to ask me about a best friendship I'd tell you about him. We may not see each other as often anymore since he goes to John Muir now, but we still talk every day, whether it's a call, text, or on the game. He's my producer because I think he gets me the best.
