As you all know, I'm a music lover and I listen to all kinds of music. Good music heals the soul, it energizes, and it entertains.
Listening to music helps me a lot. When I'm down, I listen to music to lift up my soul. Music helps me to focus on whatever I'm doing. Whenever I'm feeling weak, music gives me energy to carry on. In fact music helps me in a lot of ways.
I have different music apps I use but my favorite is Boomplay. In this post, I'm here to do a recap of my Boomplay activity (stat) for the year 2022.
