The first 7 seconds slap hard! I'd love it even more if it stayed at the same tempo. Glad there are other Goya Soda stans! It sucked not seeing it get it's just dues :jonny:

I'm getting close to the top 50 so I had to come with the heat! And personally, I only really cared for Hoodrich Disco (and the EP as a whole) for Toro tbh

Songs of 2018

 

50-31

 

50) Choker|Starfruit LA

 

Image result for choker starfruit la spotify

 

One of the few times he doesn't sound like Frank O on the album. Give me more of this king.

 

49) First Aid Kit|Fireworks

 

Image result for first aid kit ruins

 

I like the kinds of songs where the production of the song sort of conflicts with the vocal performance/lyrics of the artist. It has a very celebratory and triumphant vibe to it while the vocals and the lyrics are much more somber.

 

48) Caroline Rose|More of the Same

 

Image result for caroline rose more of the same

 

To Caroline it might just be more of the same thing, but this here has some great, interesting production that couldn't be more different to the current pop landscape in mainstream music. A nice treat to start off her album.

 

47) Ssion|Dogs on Asphalt (feat. Melissa Burns, Contessa Stuto, and Jennifer Herrema)

 

Image result for ssion o

 

There's like 3 songs stuffed into this one song and it manages to work. An incredibly dynamic song.

 

46) Swae Lee|Offshore (feat. Young Thug)

 

Image result for swae lee swaecation

 

The renegade is real. This should really be Young Thug (feat. Swae Lee).

 

45) Nao|Saturn (feat. Kwabs)

 

Image result for nao saturn

 

One of the few standouts on Saturn, this hit all the right marks. I love a good R&B duet :heart2: 

 

44) ODIE|Faith

 

Image result for odie faith spotify

 

A vibe! This always gets me moving. Love an afrobeat bop:katie2:

 

43) Ariana Grande|no tears left to cry

 

Image result for no tears left to cry spotify

 

All hail the princess of pop! Her best single to date. thank u, next found dead in a ditch.

 

42) Rae Morris|Reborn

 

Image result for rae morris reborn spotify

 

The beat knocks way too hard for a pop song but I love it. The buildup of tension to sudden drops are nice highlights but her voice just takes it the extra mile. It's filled with confidence and power!

 

41) Travis Scott|STOP TRYING TO BE GOD

 

Image result for travis scott astroworld spotify

 

Travis may be a talentless hack and a sellout, but at least he knows how to "curate" songs.

 

40) VanJess|Control Me

 

Image result for vanjess album

 

so seductive, so sexy

 

39) DJ Koze|Baby (How Much I LFO You)

 

artworks-GN1VvXkXGz17-0-t500x500.jpg

 

So many layers to unpack with this song. It has all of these weird elements that could be bad on their own but work when they come together. Another dynamic entry to my countdown, this is the kind of song that'll never get old for me.

 

38) Kilo Kish|Elegance

 

Image result for kilo kish elegance

 

Love this bold new direction Kilo's taking with her sound. The production is the main highlight with Kilo playing backup to it, but with a beat like that who can blame her?

 

37) Anderson .Paak|Anywhere (feat. Snoop Dogg & The Last Artful, Dodgr)

 

Image result for anderson paak oxnard

 

Poor all the Bubblin' stans. The G-Funk inspired production was a nice change of pace and the fact that this is one of the few songs where Andy's singing on the album makes this a standout track on Oxnard. It's also pretty romantic :heart2: And work @ Snoop putting out a solid verse too.

 

36) Maxo Kream|Work

 

Image result for maxo kream work

 

Trap + a good rapper= a concept

Love the beat switch too.

 

35) Kendrick Lamar|X (feat. Saudi, ScHoolboy Q, and 2 Chainz)

 

2bd50294b0b2874d3182fa31a6fb825784e6e395

 

Not much to say tbh. Just a well crafted rap song. Everybody did their thing.

 

34) Starchild & The New Romantic|Can I Come Over?

 

Image result for starchild and the new romantic can i come over

 

Honestly, the lyrics are suuuuper disjointed and kinda don't make sense but the production is immaculate so idc.


33) Kadhja Bonet|Mother Maybe

 

Image result for kadhja bonet mother maybe

 

One of the few upbeat songs on Childqueen, Mother Maybe injects some much needed life into the album. The scatting at the end of the song is not only a highlight but a huge kii too.

 

32) Denzel Curry|TA13OO

 

Image result for denzel curry ta13oo song spotify

 

Say what y'all want about the album, but the title track is a banger!

 

31) Natalie Prass|Sisters

 

Image result for natalie prass sisters spotify

 

I love it when I see women supporting other women. #feminism

This is also some peak white girl funk :katie2:

pretty sure Fireworks is the only First Aid Kit song I've heard but I love it :heart2: I'm an ORMH, but Reborn is great and easily my favorite from her album. The Caroline, DJ Koze, Anderson, and Kendrick songs are all great, but NTLTC is my fave here :clap3: Ariana snapped. GIAW outsold by a tiny bit but both are way better than thank u, next so tea :mandown: Great set.

Fireworks kinda the best song on the album so you're not totally missing out.

asffghjkl the way everyone turned on her, she lowkey was an early AOTY favorite but glad you recgonize talent.

And she did, she sure did. no tears is fresh and vibrant while Giaw is cute but a tad generic :mandown: 

Posted

DJ Koze and Rae Morris :heart2: 

started listening to Koze last night. I didn’t know he was responsible/influenced so many of my faves songs.

 

Posted

More of the same, Stop trying to be god, NTLTC, Sisters, Control Me :clap3:

More of the Same ahhh, yes.

Sisters is a great song but 3rd best on the album!! Elegance is also fantastic.

Posted

Saturn felt so long to me :rip: Curiosity is the only song I use from the album honestly.

 

No Tears, Elegance, Baby, Sisters. :clap3: All bops.

Posted

Unique choice for DJ since everyone usually go for Pick Up.

Starfruit, ntltc, x, elegenace :clap3: 

Bubblin > anywhere but not a bad choice. 

Something about the vocals in Stop Trying To Be God is a little off for me and it makes me like the song less. More so on James's side.
