Russ – September 16 (Official Audio)

Steadily earning props in the underground, Ras has found success not only as a rapper but also as a producer.

He’s respected by hardcore heads as a genuine, real-deal MC.

Among his catalog, a track I especially recommend is “September 16.” It’s a piece that portrays the pain of losing your job and burdening your family and friends, and it’s packed with bars that hit home for working adults.

September, being the end of the fiscal half for many, tends to bring the blues.

Why not let yourself be soothed by this bittersweet yet compassionate track?

Selena Gomez – Lose You To Love Me (Official Music Video)

When September arrives, many people feel down as the pleasures of summer—like leisure and sports—dwindle.

For those feeling that way, I recommend listening to Lose You To Love Me.

It’s one of Selena Gomez’s signature works, portraying heartbreak through predominantly philosophical turns of phrase.

The lyrics also carry the meaning of reassessing oneself, so if you tend to feel blue in autumn, be sure to check out the Japanese translation.

Songs by Sparky Deathcap, where heartbreak and hope coexist, are becoming a hot topic.

This solo project by Robert Taylor, a singer-songwriter from the UK, delicately portrays the pain of lost love and the changing seasons.

Released in 2009, the work initially drew little attention, but it was rediscovered on TikTok in 2023 and captured many hearts.

Its soothing indie-folk melodies and deeply emotional lyrics are especially appealing—perfect for listening in September, when autumn begins to set in.

It’s a recommended track for anyone seeking music to accompany the start of a new season.
