Whether you are currently crying over your ex or busy becoming the life of the Zoom party, this personality quiz will tell you which release from the past year will suit you best. 


1.  You and a few friends are in the car on a quarantine road trip. They have the aux but you hate their music — what’s the next move?

  1. Take over the aux and tell them that their music taste sucks. They can thank you later — you’re saving them from themselves.

  2. Start singing over the music that’s playing. 

  3. Put your headphones on and listen to your own music. Life is too short to listen to bad music. 

  4. Nothing. You don’t want to hurt their feelings. You can always pick next time. 

  5. Ask everyone in the car for their song requests and add them to the queue. Everybody wins!



2. Your friends would describe you as:

  1. The leader of the pack.

  2. Laidback. Chill. 

  3. Reserved. 

  4. Sensitive. Emotional. The mom friend. 

  5. Creative. Indecisive. Lovable. 



3. It’s a Friday night. You’ve already made plans to:

  1. Go on one of the many dates that you have lined up for this weekend. Being attractive is so exhausting. 

  2. Run downtown to grab boba and Insomnia Cookies. 

  3. Host a Zoom drinking game. 

  4. Stay in to watch a movie and play with your cats. 

  5. Have a recording session with your band. 



4. Your friends have invited you out to a fancy 5 p.m. socially-distanced outing. What are you wearing? 

  1. A fur coat over your most fire fit, complete with your shiniest accessories.  

  2. Tight skirt, thigh-high boots, turtleneck and your sweetest perfume. 

  3. A bold makeup look and a head-to-toe leather fit. 

  4. The strawberry dress. 

  5. Whatever is comfortable. You care more about the memories you’ll make tonight.



5. You come across your friend’s partner while swiping on Tinder. You decide to:

  1. Swipe right, but only if they’re fine. 

  2. Keep it moving. That’s all of their business and none of yours.

  3. Make a meme and subtweet their partner. 

  4. Call your friend immediately and spend the rest of the day plotting with them. 

  5. Ask their partner before assuming the worst. Maybe they just forgot to deactivate their account. 



6. Which hobby did you pick up during quarantine?

  1. Sugar-babying. Somebody’s gotta fund this expensive taste.

  2. Pinterest board-making. 

  3. Becoming TikTok famous.

  4. Baking. You can make a mean loaf of banana bread. 

  5. Teaching yourself a new language, learning to play a new instrument and calling up old friends from the past. 



7. Which album would you listen to all the way through with no skips?

  1. “The Pinkprint” by Nicki Minaj

  2. “Beyoncé” by Beyoncé

  3. “Ungodly Hour” by Chloe x Halle 

  4. “In the Lonely Hour” by Sam Smith

  5. “Everything is Love” by The Carters


If you got mostly 1’s:



Ho, Why Is You Here?” by Flo Milli

Others can sense your confidence as soon as you walk into a room. If it isn’t your impeccable sense of style that immediately tips them off, then it’s the way that you carry yourself. You are the best dressed in any situation, and you enjoy treating yourself to nice things. You have your life together and people are jealous of you. You don’t have time for the haters, though — you’re too busy winning at life. The oldest album on this list, Flo Milli’s “Ho, Why Is You Here?,” is a self-love album for those who already love themselves. If you’re on TikTok, you have probably spent the last several months hearing the tracks “In the Party” and “Beef FloMix” playing in the background of people’s dance videos as they exuded pure monarch energy. If you didn’t already know about this July release, well, now you know.

If you got mostly 2’s:




Positions” by Ariana Grande

You keep to yourself for the most part and those who don’t know you would describe you as quiet. They could not be more wrong! You have strong opinions but you don’t think everyone needs to know about them. You don’t like everyone in your business but you can and will tell them about themselves when needed. People turn to you when they want an honest opinion but you won’t give out unsolicited advice.

SAWAYAMA” by Rina Sawayama

“You’re a bad b----. You don’t care. You’re tired of people’s BS,” Pearl Young ’24 said about potential “SAWAYAMA” listeners. You are mysterious. No one really knows who you are but everyone wants to. People want to learn more about you but they’re too afraid to approach you. As a result, you often go overlooked. This doesn’t bother you at all. You already know you’re the best. Why would you need someone else to tell you what you already know? Just like you, the alt-pop tracks on Sawayama’s latest album do not always get the love that they deserve.

If you got mostly 4’s:

Folklore” by Taylor Swift

You live every moment of your life striving to fulfill the cottagecore aesthetic. Timothée Chalamet was your white boy of the month. Your plants are your best friends and you visit art museums in your free time. Scarves can be worn on your head or as a shirt and your purse is made of wicker. Some would describe you as emotional, but you prefer to believe that you are in tune with your emotions. This somber and self-reflective eighth studio album will put you in the perfect headspace to sit outside thinking about your life choices and breathing in the crisp fall air.

Made In Lagos” by Wizkid

You are the life of the party and pre-pandemic, one would need only make their way to the center of the dance floor to find you. You are easily bored and always searching for new ways to express yourself. Wizkid’s latest work is a great match for your never-ending energy and attractive personality. Just like you, Wizkid’s October release has range. The album features a variety of artists across different genres, from Burna Boy and Skepta to Jr. Gong and H.E.R. As someone who is able to get along with just about anyone, the rhythmic yet relaxed tunes on “Made In Lagos” will be perfect for you.
