A. Doja Cat & Tyga - Juicy 

 

This song is meh honestly. I always have an issue with songs that want to eat the ass like they are actual food. 

 

B. Katy Perry & Kanye West - E.T. 

 

I don't listen to the Kanye remix anymore, but the song itself still holds strong over others here 

 

C. The J-Pop song 

 

Honestly, the language barrier completely disconnects me from the song. So and honestly it sounds similar to other entries this round 

 

D. Tinashe - 2 On 

Very good choice. This song still goes off 6 years later 

 

E. Nelly Furtado - Promiscuous 

I always preferred Maneater but this is still good. 

 

F. Beyonce - Freedom 

 

Decent song. Should place ok in my rankings considering it holds up better compared to....

 

 

G. Mia Martina & Wala Flocka - Beast 

 

A poor man's Dark Horse with extremely shrill and awful vocals. By far the worst of the group. 

 

H. Pia Mia & the two stooges - Do It Again 

 

This song is a top that deserved better, and if her label didn't make her collab with a ****ing domestic abuser, it probably would have. 

 

I. Meghan Trainor f. Yo Gotti - Better 

 

One of her best songs and the best of that era 

 

J. Melanie Fiona & Sean Paul - 4AM 

 

This gets a pass from me. Malone's voice is more suited for RNB and this generic EDM dance pop beat does her absolutely no favors. She's lucky there are worse songs this week. 

 

K. Ciara & Missy Elliott - One, Two Step

 

Party classic. 

 

L. The Pussycat Dolls & Timbaland - Wait a Minute 

 

Wasn't really a fan of this song back in the day and my opinion hasn't changed 

 

M. Nick Jonas & Angel Haze - Numb 

 

Angel Haze does a decent job on the song but Nick Jonas reminded me here that his nasal voice is still annoying and having it drowned out by production made it worse.

Louisa feat. 2 Chainz - YES

Yeah I definitely get what others have said about this sounding like Xtina, it's almost IDENTICAL :deadbanana2:This is catchy but a bit messy.

 

Tinashe feat. Young Thug - Party Favors

I've never been able to get into Tinashe's music and this song is no exception :spin:

 

Kanye West feat. Nicki Minaj, and some other peepz - Monster

Kanye and Jay-Z's parts are kinda boring, but whew Bon Iver and Nicki really turned this into a CLASSIC huh

 

Estelle feat. Kanye West - American Boy 

This song brings back so many memories :jonny:One of the defining songs of my pre-teen years.

 

Kelly Rowland feat. Lil Wayne - Motivation 

Ok wait, this song is a lot better than I remember. I didn't really care about it when it was a hit, but I'm BOPPING now.

 

Destiny's Child feat. Da Brat - Survivor 

I absolutely love this song, but I'm kinda screaming at the loopholing, so I'm not sure what to do with this one :deadbanana2:

 

Mariah Carey feat. O.D.B. - Fantasy

I don't want all of ATRL dragging me so let me just keep my mouth shut for this one :spin:

 

Jay Sean feat. Lil Wayne - Down

Omg another defining song of my pre-teen years :jonny:This is dated but I can only associate happy feelings with it.

 

Gorillaz feat. Kilo Kish - Out Of Body 

The first 30 seconds were painful, but I started liking it quite a lot after that. I appreciate the risk.

 

Rihanna feat. Drake - Work

I can't believe I had the audacity to dislike this BOP the first time I heard it. Thankfully I saw the light quickly.

 

The Pussycat Dolls ft. Snoop Dogg - Buttons

F**k whoever took this before I could :jonny:An iconic, catchy, sexy, flawless CLASSIC :jonny:

 

Selena Gomez feat. A$AP Rocky - Good For You

Definitely one of Selena's better singles! And it's aged well too.

 

Madonna feat. Kanye West - Beat Goes On

The YouTube video being unavailable in Canada :deadbanana4: But anyways, this is v cute!

Group 2 Listening Party https://discordapp.com/assets/e820a306c732b90515989dada9995a97.svg

a. Louisa feat. 2 Chainz - YES

This reminded me of another music video and I can't tell which one it is?  This song is pretty generic but not in a fun way, its kind of lifeless honestly.  And loud.

 

b. Tinashe feat. Young Thug - Party Favors

The period between Aquarius and the album she released last year was rough to say the least.  I think this scales closer to the kind of music we love Tinashe doing but its admittedly missing a certain effortless spark I like from her.

 

c. Kanye West feat. Nicki Minaj, and some other peepz - Monster

Of course its pretty fantastic - we also know that Nicki shines the brightest on this track too.  Would I say I like it as much as I did before? Probably not, but I can't deny it either.

 

d. Estelle feat. Kanye West - American Boy 

This is almost definitely a modern classic (I guess it's not so modern anymore! #throwbackthursday) but its admittedly not something you think of instantly.  And yet when you listen to it again you realize why its a classic.

 

e. Kelly Rowland feat. Lil Wayne - Motivation 

Kelly Rowland is/was(?) underrated, we knew this.  I like this song because this came around a time when she was simultaneously releasing these big dance pop singles but appropriately showed her duality with this smooth bop.

 

f. Destiny's Child feat. Da Brat - Survivor 

Wow we love a remiX.  I was never a huge Survivor fan myself, preferring other singles.  I think it just didn't age as well.

 

g. Mariah Carey feat. O.D.B. - Fantasy

Undisputed classic, there's a reason Mariah does this so well - she invented it!

 

h. Jay Sean feat. Lil Wayne - Down

Little dated but its still at least fun in its genericness.  Not a lot of modern pop can say the same.

 

i. Gorillaz feat. Kilo Kish - Out Of Body 

I don't hate it but its definitely not my taste.  I like Kilo Kish though.

 

j. Rihanna feat. Drake - Work

Modern classic!

 

k. The Pussycat Dolls ft. Snoop Dogg - Buttons
Never been a PCD fan and this song is no exception.

 

l. Selena Gomez feat. ASAP Rocky - Good For You

The solo MV version where it gets more stripped back and minimal is insanely better.  That one is one of the best songs she's ever done, this one loses its uniqueness and I don't care for A$AP's verse.

 

m. Madonna feat. Kanye West - Beat Goes On

Huge fan of Pharrell as a producer, but this song feels so poorly executed.  I think it's because of Madonna.

b. Tinashe feat. Young Thug - Party Favors

This is just alright, it gets a bit too repetitive 

 

c. Kanye West feat. Nicki Minaj, and some other peepz - Monster

Absolutely not luv

 

d. Estelle feat. Kanye West - American Boy

Yup! the mixing is low key terrible though

 

e. Kelly Rowland feat. Lil Wayne - Motivation 

Eh this is really boring

 

f. Destiny's Child feat. Da Brat - Survivor

Kii at the song ending abruptly like that nnn a classic though!

 

g. Mariah Carey feat. O.D.B. - Fantasy

Yup! the chorus from the original though >>>

A. Doja Cat feat. Tyga - Juicy 
It's a cute bop, I love the video

 

B. Katy Perry feat. Kanye West - E.T.
One of the best singles from a (former) MPG, even my straight friends loved it.

 

C. Namie Amuro  feat. Doberman Inc. - First Timer
Never heard of either artist, so it's different at least? Kinda noisy and static-y, very pretty girl though on the cover though. 

 

D. Tinashe feat. Schoolboy Q - 2 On
This song puts me in a sexy mood and it's still my favorite Tinashe song.

 

E. Nelly Furtado feat. Timbaland - Promiscuous
One of the best songs of the 2000s :jonny: Nelly was my favorite of the mid 00s trio tbh

 

F. Beyoncé feat. Kendrick Lamar - Freedom
Beyonce and Kendrick served an anthem

 

G. Mia Martina feat. Waka Flocka - Beast 
First time hearing this and it isn't bad, would be better w/o Waka

 

H. Pia Mia feat. Chris Brown, Tyga - Do It Again
An underrated bop, may not be as good as some of the classics here but it's still cute

 

I. Meghan Trainor feat. Yo Gotti - Better
This is a chill song, it's not awful, kind of a bop

 

J. Melanie Fiona feat. Sean Paul -  4AM
The version w/o Sean Paul >>>>, the echo-y autotune on the chorus was not the tea

 

K. Ciara feat. Missy Elliott - 1, 2 Step
Another classic, Cici and MissE did that

 

L. Pussycat  Dolls feat. Timbaland - Wait A Minute
This is a fun song, it's not bad and Nicole is a skinny legend

 

M. Nick Jonas feat. Angel Haze - Numb
Not my favorite song from Nick, the numb chorus is kind of annoying, production is good tho

CRITIQUES

 

GROUP A

Spoiler

Doja Cat, Tyga - Juicy

this is, indeed, a bop. hadn't heard Tyga's version before, but it actually adds to the song (lowkey best part nn). Strong entry.

 

Katy Perry, Kanye West - E.T

 

Y1Bj1E2.gif

 

the solo version will forever be superior tho, but it still remains one of the best pop songs of the past decade.

 

Namie Amuro, Doberman Inc - FIRST TIMER

I didn't like this at all. The production is messy, the melody isn't good, the amount of autotune on the vocals is tragic, and not only that, but it doesn't even have the decency of being a short song. It's five minutes of pure, dated torture. Next.

 

Tinashe, Schoolboy Q - 2 On

idc for this at all. boring.

 

Nelly Furtado, Timbaland - Promiscuous

i would probably enjoy this much more if it wasn't so damn dated :rip: 

 

Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar - Freedom

Love the song, one of my favorites on Lemonade. Kendrick's verse is amazing and really adds to the song. Good job :clap3: 

 

 Mia Martina, Waka Flocka - Beast 

this is such an odd entry nnn. i kinda like it tho, the feature really help the song and the song itself is interesting.

 

Pia Mia, Chris Brown, Tyga - Do It Again

this is such a bop tho, wheeeew. Personal feelings for Chris aside, his verse is great and so is Tyga's. Not to mention that the song itself is pop perfection. Easily the best entry for this group.

 

Meghan Trainor, Yo Gotti - Better

This is actually one of the few Meghan Trainor songs that I really enjoy. Yo Gotti's verse is a really nice addition to the song and Meghan's voice here sounds really pretty. Good entry :clap3:  

 

Melanie Fiona, Sean Paul - 4AM

Why isn't this on Spotify? Is this even an official remix or is it fanmade? I-

Well, if the host accepted it, then... from what i heard, the original is probably superior and transmits the intended emotions of the song much better than this cheap remix, but i lowkey dig how they made a sad/slowtempo song into a dated bop. It definetely sounds cheap but i don't completely hate it either. It's kinda mid of the road for me. Definetely made a choice to send this as your entry nnn, but you could've done worse i guess.

 

Ciara, Missy Elliott - 1,2 Step

 a certified, dated bop. not much more to add tbh. i like it

 

The Pussycat Dolls, Timbaland - Wait A Minute

All these 2000s bops are so ****ing dated. Again, it's not that i hate it, it's honestly a bop, but i don't enjoy this as much as i probably would if we were still in the 2000s.

 

Nick Jonas, Angel Haze - Numb

this is also really middle of the road for me. it's a bop, but the chorus is just as dated as these 2000s pop songs, despite being released in 2014? 2015? the verses and pre-chorus is what kind save the song tbh.

 

GROUP B

Spoiler

Louisa, 2 Chainz - YES

I'm SO sorry that these ugly ass bitches have panned this song so far. It definetely has some Legend X influences, but it's a MAJOR BOP all around. She ****ing did THAT :clap3: 

 

Tinashe, Young Thug - Party Favors

This starts off as a big bop but kinda becomes monotone/repetitive/boring towards the end of the song. It goes on for too long imo.

 

Kanye West, Jay Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj - Monster

 

tenor_3.gif

 

a ****ing CLASSIC. it's a ****ing bop, and Nicki's verse is ICONIC. Really good entry :clap3: 

 

Estelle, Kanye West - American Boy

ahhhh, another classic. It still sounds FRESH and GOOD. Kanye's verse is great as well. Y'all killing it so far.

 

Kelly Rowland, Lil Wayne - Motivation 

this is sooo sexy. Lil Wayne's verse is a great addition and Kelly's voice sounds so good here too. I'm legit having a hard time ranking these songs bc all of them are so good. 

 

Destiny's Child, Da Brat - Survivor

A perfect example of what NOT to send for this round nn. The feature literally dowgrades the whole song. Sounds cheap, not to mention that it's completely unnecesary. The song itself, if you ignore the awful Da Brat verse, is good. So some points for that i guess.

 

Mariah Carey, O.B.D - Fantasy

kinda middle of the road for me. the song itself is good, it just falls flat in comparison to the rest of the songs in the group.

 

Jay Sean, Lil Wayne - Down

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, another classic. this is so ****ing good. i hadn't listened to this in so long, but as soon as it started, wheeew, such a good throwback :jonny5: 

 

Gorillaz, Kilo Kish - Out Of Body

this issa bop. i really enjoyed it. kinda falls a bit flat in comparison to the rest of the song in the group [2]

 

The Pussycat Dolls, Snoop Dog - Buttons

the SUPERIOR Pussycat Dolls song entry :clap3: issa sensual BOP, and Snoop Dog slayed his verse, as usual. 

 

Rihanna, Drake - Work

this is hard, because this is such a solid choice for the theme and as entry, but there's already so many GREAT songs in the group that this kinda falls in the lower half of my ranking, or at the very least, right in the middle nn. Still a great entry tho.

 

Selena Gomez, A$AP Rocky - Good For You

Selena's best single and one of her best songs ever, PERIOD. The song itself is so sexy, and it's one of those few times that Selena's limited range/voice actually really works in her favor, not to mention that ASAP nailed his verse. Good job!

 

Madonna, Kanye West - Beat Goes On

yeah, this isn't good. literally wanted to skip the song a minute after it started. the "get down, beep beep" annoys the hell out of me. literally makes me want to rip my ears off. Kanye's verse is the only decent part of the song.
