Agree about Kehlani. Get Like is such a bop, there's a few selections from the album but a lot of filler.
You're the only one I know that would dare put JMSN on their lists lol
Are we expecting Majid this year? :cupid:

 

You better get into Jorja!!!

I'm not too surprised JMSN hasn't been seen on many lists. Whatever Makes U Happy was a bit of a downgrade from It is. even though it's a bit more consistent. And bih, you just might :cupid: 

I'm going to need a whole album from Ms. Smith A$AP :jonny:

Honestly, I'm having a hard time cutting down the # of songs to recommend to you :rip: so I'd recommend all of them :celestial4: Try to find some time to listen to them all. Just start with these three first:

61) Jorja Smith|Teenage Fantasy

62) Billie Eilish|idontwannabeyouanymore

63) Jens Lekman|What's That Perfume That You Wear?

Top 100 Singles

 

Singles 60-51

 

60) Jhené Aiko|Psilocybin (Love In Full Effect) (feat. Dr. Chill)

 

Image result for jhene aiko trip

 

The problem with songs that are long is that they usually drag on for too long, feel like a chore to listen to, and ultimately feel like they should've been cut down in size. Thankfully, on this track, Jhené makes sure to keep our attention all the way through. On this 7-minute long trip, Jhene sings about, well... being on psilocybin, a mind-altering psychedelic drug. The outro, with assistance from her father, helps to switch up the pace of the song, making sure it never gets boring.

 

59) Oxbow|Cold & Well-Lit Place

One of my favorite songs in terms of instrumentation. I just lose myself in it every time I hit play. You can barely understand what the lead singer is saying, which I suppose adds to the raw and frenzied nature of the instrumentals.

 

58) Benjamin Clementine|Phantom of Aleppoville

 

Image result for phantom of aleppoville spotify

 

Easily the most dynamic song I've listened to all year. There's so many different instruments being used that it feels like I'm listening to orchestra playing. It's hard to describe. In the span of 3 minutes (out of 6 and a half minutes at that), the tempo changes from mid, to fast, to slow all while managing to incorporate a myriad of instruments and sounds that I'm not too familiar with in the slightest. And some how, Benjamin manages to make it work, putting together an all around gorgeous song.

 

57) Kali Uchis|Tyrant (feat. Jorja Smith)

One of my favorite jams this year, Tyrant is the lead single for Kali's upcoming debut album. Tyrant is about Kali and her lover using the love they have for each other to blind themselves to what's happening in the world. When I first heard this, I was initially disappointed because I didn't like it as much as I did her past material. But with every listen, I'm kept getting more and more hooked! Doesn't hurt this chill bop was great for playing all summer long and features the wonderful Jorja Smith too.

 

56) Mura Masa|1 Night (feat. Charli XCX)

 

Image result for mura masa 1 night

 

Another bop on my list, 1 Night is the collaboration between dance/electronic producer Mura Masa and indie pop dahling Charli XCX. Not much to say here but this is one of my favorite pop gems released this year. An infectious earworm with great pop sensibilities and both of them delivered  :katie2:

 

55) Fyfe|Belong (feat. Kimbra)

 

Image result for fyfe belong spotify

 

I was heavily anticipating this ever since I heard Fyfe's Stronger EP last year. And I'm glad to say he came through. With assistance from Kimbra, Belong is an indie pop song with slight synth elements about two individuals who want to find a place where they belong because they are tired of not knowing and understanding who they are on the inside.

 

54) Why?|George Washington

This song is probably the hardest song to describe on my list thus far. It's certainly one of the more interesting songs I've listened to though. A very bluesy indie rock tune, George Washington is a song where the singer talks about pushing through the problems they are facing.

 

53) Migos|What The Price

One of the best knocks I've heard all year. So smooth and I love the guitar riffs used throughout all of the instrumentals.

52) Bruno Mars|That's What I Like

Say what you want about Bruno, but he did that! I feel with each new album, Bruno continues to find the style that suits him the most/makes him the most comfortable and with That's What I Like, he's at his best and most comfortable. The song is catchy, has a great beat, has lush production, and has one of his best vocal performances ever. One of the best hits of the year.

 

51)  Tennis|In The Morning I'll Be Better

 

Image result for tennis in the morning i'll be better spotify

 

For our last track, we have the sprightly intro to duo Tennis' album, Yours Conditionally. Sprinkled with '70s pop/rock charm, the lead vocalist Alaina sings about the love she has for her partner. A great song to vibe to and one that's oddly relaxing. Getting some Natalie Prass vibes from them.
