Hey guys! I know I said this in my last video, but I wanted to give a quick reminder that there will be no new HFK video today due to me being in pre-production for my film.

Hey, y'all! Here's the final poll! I did take some executive liberties in choosing which four albums to put in this poll. Please read carefully. 

I decided to only put one of the Halsey albums ( since some of you expressed the wish to give other artists a fighting chance). I...
