Welcome back to Takeover Tuesday, where each week Billboard taps chart-topping artists and tastemakers to compile their very own playlist exclusive to Billboard's Spotify account. We give the artists free rein to base the list on whatever subject they choose. The only rule? Make it as creative and unique to them as possible.

This week, Grace VanderWaal reflects on her own artistic origin story by looking back at the first works of veteran stars. The 13-year-old’s career is already chock-full of firsts, like last year’s debut EP, Perfectly Imperfect -- which the singer-songwriter released upon landing her first record deal with Columbia Records after becoming the first 12-year-old to win America’s Got Talent. And with her first full album on the way Friday (Nov. 3), VanderWaal has fully established herself as a rising star, as evidenced by her No. 8 spot on Billboard’s 21 Under 21 list this year.

VanderWaal created a playlist that’s thematically consistent with her own status as an up-and-comer. “These are all songs from some of my favorite artists at the beginning of their music career,” VanderWaal tells Billboard of her picks. “All of these songs are some of their first singles or their first albums, similar to how Just The Beginning is the first album for me!”

Her song selections veer between soft-rock crooners like Ed Sheeran and doo-pop darling Meghan Trainor. Simon Cowell once called VanderWaal “the next Taylor Swift,” and it’s no surprise that the country-turned-pop superstar makes an appearance on the playlist.

Her aptly titled first full album, Just the Beginning, will be available on Nov. 3 and can be preordered here. In the meantime, stream VanderWaal’s playlist below.
