bruh I think maybe you should read a field guide book for your camera or start with watching a gangload of streaming videos to fully understand the technical aspects of the camera and lens. chances are a lot of what you want to improve on with your pics doesn't have anything to do with upgrading your lens.
I recently picked up a nikon d3000 so I'm new to the dslr game. In the same boat really. Personally its complicated for me to grasp many photography concepts but I'm hella happy that i'm slowly but surely picking it up.
After understanding your kit or standard midrange lens. it's all about what type of pictures are you trying to take. A nice wide angle would be dope but telephoto, wide angle, macro, fisheye, etc. are all unique and important too.

You don't want wide angle then, you're looking for Telephoto/Zoom lenses.
Wide Angle is for up close shots where you're trying to fit more in the picture.
The deeper I got into photography I found that It's not the camera that matters, but good lighting and a decent lens.
Check out the 55-200 or 70-300, if they have those for Canon, I imagine they're cheapaer for Canon because Nikon's glass is $$.

You can even try this place.. www.borrowlenses.com
it's saved me a lot of money, trying lenses before I buy them.
The lenses mostly used in Studios are Telephoto, Like if you've ever been to Karmaloop, the shots of all the models wearing the clothes is shot with a telephoto lens.
Also make sure u get a filter for every lens it protects the glass on the actual lens from dust/scratches/impact.
Any questions you got you can post em here or PM me.. I was in the same shoes as you about a year or two ago.

My bad.... I only read the first part
Yeah like I said though, Wide Angle lens is for trying to fit more into the picture when you're up close to your subject.. so if that sounds like what you need, get a wide angle, if you're trying to shoot from a distance Telephoto is the way, like sports or outdoors where you can't be too close to the action.
