I don't want to do it, but someone should do an Aaliyah rate including her soundtracks/rare tracks

 

@Melancholy do it

 

edit: maybe @Saddy could do it since it has been a couple of years and the other one was limited in songs?

I remember asking about doing it again but with "all" of her songs, but someone told me I should wait a little longer (it was 2 or 3 years ago?)
@Ace Reject what do you say? can we do it now?

So, there are a few others up for play, and I'd love for you to host one:

 

THIS WAS ALT-POP 2023

 

Sufjan Stevens

Lana Del Rey

Kelela

Caroline Polachek

Mitski

Tinashe

Chloe

Kali Uchis

Janelle Monae 

 

(Take careful look at who's not mentioned - and they'll be in supa's rate. :wink:)

 

Carly Rae Jepsen in for TWPOP 2023 - PinkPantheress in for the second edition!

 

We have to get back to doing rates - there's only one at the moment!

 

And rate on CURRENT music that bring us together! 

 

Do I have to get this party started? Or does @supaspaz with THIS WAS 2023?

Hosting rates is hard! and the lower voter turnout compared to back in the day makes it hard to justify all that work sometimes, unless you're real passionate about it!

 

I prefer discog rates myself, but I could maybe see hosting the Troye / Kylie / Jessie / Carly thing if I'm not too busy.

Yeh hosting Pop 2022 was a lot of effort but it was enjoyable. I happened to love all 4 albums before hosting it so i didn't mind putting in the effort, plus it got a pretty good turn out for today's standards from what i have seen.

 

I definitely would like to host another rate at some point but it would have to include music i am passionate about and none of the 2023 options really interest me.

 

I'd be more up for a specific artist's discog/singles rate.

Now THIS is what I'm talking about!

I managed to finish my preparations for the Sheena rate earlier than expected, can I start it? I don't think that it will interfere with This Was 2023 much, and I'll try to participate in that one too.

Agree. Voter turnouts are definitely lower than 2-3 years ago.

 

I remember hosting a rate with 300+ songs in 2020 and it had like 60+ voters and that would never happen today lol

Maybe, to revive a bit of interest and flair in rates, it's time to start the re-do of the classic rates that we were brainstorming about years ago.

 

You know: 4 v Born This Way v Femme Fatale / '90s Rebellion Rate / In the Zone v Stripped v Dangerously In Love / other fun stuff. It's been over a decade since a lot of these rates!

 

 

Could have one classic rate run concurrently with one or two new rates - like, I'd certainly take a crack at the TW Pop lineup I mentioned a few posts, but I also would looooove to do the Music/All For You/Fever rate again :heart2: We could even throw ol' Celine's album from that time in for a punching bag if need be.

Yes, I love this idea! We could expand the '11 by adding 21 and Talk That Talk!

@Ace Reject My rate is completed!

Only Girl (in the World) won!

Could the Sheena rate get pinned, at least until the deadline, pretty please? I'm getting the ballots but would like to maximize the reach without having to tag every individual fan in the wild.

I think Troye has enough of a catalog for a discography rate by now, doesn't he?

 

Would also love to do something with Dolly Parton, but IDK how we'd do song selection for that one. She has 198 singles! Even limited to top 50 hits on the country charts, it'd be like 78 songs and still miss some essentials / late career work after she aged out of the charts (but not out of making quality material!).

@Ace Reject hey, honey! Question, can I do Aaliyah rate? The last one was 2 years ago (or maybe 3 idr) but it was limited, there were only songs from studio albums. Now I want to make an extended one with soundtrack, features and maybe even unreleased/rare songs.

I believe so, and... yes. How would we handle Dolly/

There's such a divide rn in Hip-Hop...There's enough for us to do an All-Female Rap Collaborations Rate, maybe two installments even don't you think? @Ace Reject The WAPs vs the princess dianas vs the ladies firsts of the world.
