Tunesdays, a compilation by the Dolan Twins, Ethan and Grayson Dolan. is a group of songs selected by the twins involving the genres of hip hop, R&B, and electronic dance tracks including artists like Hoodie Allen, Black Bear, KYLE and others that include explicit language in their songs as rap artists. The album played altogether has a duration of 47:04 minutes long. The twins have chosen to include these songs in their album to portray to the general public who they are as internet personalities to those who don’t know them. It is also an indication to their influential relationship with their fans as they often use the word “savage” in their videos, its a Dolan thing ;) Therefore it is only fitting that the twins put in the idea of being a savage in this compilation to show the world that they and their fandom mean business!!

1.Movements- to any Dolan fan they instantly think of Grayson’s musical.ly to this song. a must have song on something to do with the Dolans 9/10
\
2.Dirty laundry- this was played as we were waiting for the show to start and Black bear is an American artist so to put this on the album that will be streamed to fans across the world is great publicity for his music and gives us an insight to what the twins listen to. 8/10
3.Angel – The artist KYLE is featured a lot in this compilation which shows he is a favoured as an artist by the twins, this song is super catchy with the riffs and old school feel to it. 8/10
4.Ukiyo- This is a really catchy electronic song by hermitude an Australian artist the fact that the twins used an international artist in the album is so cool! 6/10
5.Make me fade – The beginning of this song is really calming with a piano riff and is more of a chilled out song than upbeat with a female voice over the track this is relaxed song which makes the balance of lit and calm
songs in the compilation work 6/10
6.Raining love – Back at it again KYLE with the old school feel and slow beat with a hint of electronics and low vocals it all works together 7/10
7.Catch you – This song begins with an electronic upbeat riff and kicks into a lit electronic song that definitely describes the twins loud and crazy personalities 7/10
8.Oh yeah – This song starts out with a male voice singing in a high key and is more of a vocal song with the voice as the main focus including a low voice which is a form of backing for the voice, I personally love the song because it is so chill and you can listen to it whenever
8/10
9.Champagne and pools- HOODIE!!! The fact that the boys included Hoodie in this album is great because he is a huge American rap artist with great music and this song fits perfectly to the scheme of this album 9/10
10.Ridin solo- This another electronic song which is a really cool song as it includes a real voice mixed in with a variation of remixes of the voice. This also makes you think of the twins when you listening to this song. 7/10
11.Valley girls- This is by Black bear and is one of his more slower songs that includes both vocals and rapping , this is one of those songs you would listen to at the end of the night am I right? 6/10
12.The buzz- Back at it again Hermitude, I think I like this one better because near to the end it gets lit AF and is something you can imagine the twins jamming out to before they go on stage 7/10
13.Ryan must be destroyed- The name of this song is a weird one, but it is another electronic song another lit tune which I think is a good song to close the album much like the twins after a 4ou show, ending but still keeping it Lit ! 7/10
