This month's Student Spotlight shines upon 10th grader Keith Robbins. On March 11th 2025, Keith published his newest music album. The Titan Times asked him a couple questions about it.
Q: What is the name of the album and what do you hope to achieve from it?
A: The Ballad of Snoobert & His Fallen Angel Army is the name of the album. I hoped to achieve better music skills from it.
Q: What is the Genre of the Album and why did you choose to make it that?
A: I chose Alt Rock because it's the type of music I'm currently interested in. It's also fun to play instruments.
Q: How long did It take you to make all the songs on the album?
A: I started production on August 10th of 2024 and finished it on March 11th 2025.
Q: What was your inspiration to make the album?
A: I was inspired by the musician Will Wood and the band My Chemical Romance.
Q: What is your favorite song in the album and why?
A: My favorite song on the album is “I Love(D) You”. It’s one of the first songs where I talked about real personal stuff. I was having a hard time so I wrote that song to express how I was feeling.
Q: How long have you been making and producing music?
A: I have been making music since January 9th 2020, during covid times.
Q: What made you decide to start making music?
A: I was just bored one day during covid times and started to do awful rap songs. I left the rap phase to make Electronic pop music. And now I do Emo Rock music.

This month, Senior Seth Doherty is in the spotlight. Doherty recently started a brand new instagram account where he is reviewing many different cuisines and restaurants across Massachusetts.
Doherty's instagram account, under the handle @montoreviews, has managed to amass 65 followers in exactly one month since he began his reviews. Doherty started his reviews with a few coffee reviews in Florida during the month of February. Following good feedback on those reviews, he quickly started to branch out to many other types of restaurants, including sitdowns, fast-food, and more. The Titan Times managed to strike an interview with the upcoming social media star, discussing many integral aspects of his journey so far:
Q: Why did you decide to start your food reviews?
A: “I decided to start doing reviews because of my mom. When I was younger she would always tell me that I should start doing food reviews.”
Q: How do you approach the food reviews? Do you focus more on taste, presentation, service, or the overall experience?
A:“For me personally, in the food reviews, I always think that service is not the number one priority, but it is very important. I’d say the most important part of the review is definitely the taste, but you also have to take into account the money and the quantity of the food.”
Q: Have you faced any challenges in your food review journey?
A: “I’d say for the most part no, not yet at least. However, one thing that does make it harder is when Google reviews does not provide the most accurate representation of the quality of the food.”
Q: Are there any food reviewers that inspire you?
A: “I would definitely have to say Dave Portnoy. Everyone knows who Dave is and his pizza reviews have really taken off in recent years.”
Q: What is the most memorable review you have had so far?
A: “I would have to say the review that I did at Regina Pizzeria in the North End of Boston. It was my first time ever having it and I can confidently say that it was the best slice I have ever eaten.”
