Madilyn Paige matures into a fresh new pop sound on her follow-up to her debut self-titled EP. Her pitch-perfect vocal talent combines with progressive electronic and traditional pop production on this album. Keeping with the inspirational tone of her first album, this new effort shows Madilyn striking out with bold messages about positivity, self-worth, inner strength, and the dangers of comparing ourselves to others in a hyper social-media world. Standout tracks like "Scribbles" examine a deeper relationship with God, and the anthemic "We Are the Riptide" is a call to girls across the world to unite as a force for good.

7. “Little Drummer Boy” by GENTRI

Latter-day Saint singing group GENTRI released this uplifting version of the classic Christmas song, “Little Drummer Boy.” The group wrote on their Facebook page, “Please join us this Christmas by choosing to #LightTheWorld through acts of service by giving of whatever gifts you have to give, no matter how small they may seem.”
