hmm, it’s decent, but the bar has already been set so high

 

FKA Twigs - Papi Pacify

hmm, this didn’t do much for me sorry

 

Missy Elliott - One Minute Man ft. Ludacris

mega bop me thinks

 

Halsey - Alone

yes this is one of her best songs imo

 

Beyoncé - All Night

this song is just so amazing, there’s so much emotion in her voice here :cries:

it’s such a classic, need I say more?

 

 

 

GROUP B

 

Spoiler

 

Janelle Monae - Pynk ft. Grimes

it’s alright, I feel like it’s a bit repetitve; not bad at all tho

 

Drake - Take Care

I’m so sorry this would have done very well in a round where it actually fits the letters

 

Mariah Carey - A No No

big bop, Mariah is truly the queen of samples huh

 

Lady Gaga - You And I

This song is so charming, I think it will be middle-high for me

I sent. I mean the round literally got posted on my bday so I wasn't on as much :dies:

 

Happy birthday my friend! :party: 

 

Looks like I'm getting better reviews this time, I hope I can snatch at least a SAFE or a LOW this time. I've been bottom 3 for the first three rounds :dies: 

Posted

Janelle Monae - Pynk ft. Grimes

really cool, I really like it

 

Drake - Take Care

solid song, I'll put this pretty high despite the rule mistake. hope you survive. in a proper round this would get high scores I believe

 

Mariah Carey - A No No

a yes yes! one of the best in Caution

 

Lady Gaga - You And I

hmm, I'm indifferent but this is one of very few which are still good to listen to from the Born This Way album

 

Carly Rae Jepsen - All That

yup one of the best from Emotion. so good to listen to while driving in the wee hours of the morning when no one's on the road

 

Beyoncé - Hold Up

not my favorite

 

Notorious B.I.G. - Juicy

it's okay

 

Charlie XCX - You (Ha Ha Ha)

umm, no

 

FKA Twigs - Fallen Alien

it's okay [2]

 

Mariah Carey - GTFO

another yes yes!!! love it

 

Kendrick Lamar - Loyalty ft. Rihanna

I prefer Take Care but still solid.

  • Kylie Minogue - Confide In Me: cool song, the minimal production is very nice but the instrumental definitely feels a little repetitive and grating by the end
  • Saweetie - My Type: a bit trashy but it's a bop
  • Mariah Carey - Honey: it's a huge classic
  • Jojo - Anything: at first i was like omg this is awful and the vocals felt so random over this epic instrumental... it did improve and actually merge well though. however i'm still a bit embarrassed this exists and it doesn't hold up to the other entries
  • Leona Lewis - Collide: remember when avicii sued her for this? anyway it's alright. there's quite an unusual/experimental structure here which i don't necessarily think paid off all that well and honestly leona doesn't successfully carry the song
  • FKA Twigs - Papi Pacify: her vocals are so beautiful as always. it felt less disjointed than normal for twigs which i appreciate.. yeh i kind of like it!
  • Missy Elliott - One Minute Man ft. Ludacris: cool and interesting
  • Halsey - Alone: yeh this grew on me a lot after someone submitted it in ASC many years ago pre single release (probably @K$Ellie :thing:). no idea what the sample is but decent submission!
  • Beyoncé - All Night: one of my favourite (if not my actual favourite) Beyonce songs. like... every single element of the song is just so ridiculously beautiful and intricate. definite WINNER for me!
  • Teyana Taylor - Gonna Love Me: very pretty yes 
  • Madonna - Hung Up: ugh this is like THE legendary use of sample for me, like it's just insanely iconic and musically bold to release this and yes it paid off, the song just explodes from the first second into this dancefloor masterpiece

GROUP A

 

Spoiler

Kylie Minogue - Confide in Me

Yes ma'am. A classic. Her best song next to the Fever singles.

 

Saweetie - My Type

Never thought this was good. It's so overplayed and annoying now too :coma:.

 

Mariah Carey - Honey

GORGEOUS classique. No complaints.

 

Jojo - Anything

Not this sampling one of the worst hit songs of all time. Yikes. It's okay, though. She's vocally talented.

 

Leona Lewis - Collide

Could this possibly have been mixed any louder? :deadbanana2:. Um, it's not great.

 

FKA Twigs - Papi Pacify

Hawt production.

 

Missy Elliott - One Minute Man

Very boring, sorry.

 

Halsey - Alone

Not one of my favorite Halsey singles, at all. It's definitely radio friendly, but I've never cared for it. The chorus feels awkward.

 

Beyoncé - All Night

Wow......

 

CfwzhSR.gif

 

Teyana Taylor - Gonna Love Me

It's cute!! Nothing remarkable, though, tbh.

 

Madonna - Hung Up

The best dance pop song of all time, and one of the greatest SONGS of all time, period. If you don't win this group, y'all can find yourselves a new co-host!

 

GROUP B

 

the strongest group we've ever had!!!

 

Spoiler

Janelle Monáe - Pynk

Beyond tired of this song being used in games I am so sorry!! It's a good song, though. One of the only worthwhile tracks on DC for me.

 

Drake - Take CaRe

Very cute and surprisingly hasn't aged. im sorry about ur situation ?

 

Mariah Carey - A No No

This is how you do it as a seasoned legend in the music industry. Keep it fresh, while not being cringey, and STILL stay true to what made you popular in the first place.

 

Lady Gaga - Yoü and I

One of her best songs, mhm. Very nice pick.

 

Carly Rae Jepsen - All That

Still love this. One of the only Emotion songs I can still listen to. That last chorus...

 

https://i.imgur.com/CfwzhSR.gif

 

Beyoncé - Hold Up

This kinda has always been just cute to me. Still good, though.

 

Notorious B.I.G. - Juicy

Okay the risk.. love you for that. This song is like engrained in me, so that's good for you!!! An undeniable classic.

 

Charlie XCX - You (Ha Ha Ha)

Girl... the classic of all classics. Nuclear Seasons > though. :lilbit:

 

FKA Twigs - Fallen Alien

CLASSSSSSIC. The maximalism >>>

 

Mariah Carey - GTFO

Very chill and cute. I love it as an opener for Caution.

 

Kendrick Lamar - Loyalty.

WHEWWWWW. One of the most clever uses of a sample ever.

MARIAH CAREY

GROUP A

Spoiler

Kylie Minogue - Confide In Me - this was very good :clap3: 

 

Saweetie - My Type - don't hate this that much, it's a fun bop but doesn't really come close to the highs of this round

 

Mariah Carey - Honey - great song, no complaints x

 

Jojo - Anything - it... has its moments :thing: I just very much so dislike the way the sample is used and it's super corny and the song it samples is also one of the most grossly overrated songs of all time so I'm not a huge fan. She makes it somewhat better at points and it's not a total trainwreck, but it's not the most smooth ride ever either

 

Leona Lewis - Collide - oof, this just screams early 10s. The sound besides a few songs here and there, just hasn't aged well. Besides the bad production, Leona's vocals on this sound suprisingly weak. I know she's a great vocalist but here it sounds like she's struggling or it's just poorly mixed/unfinished. Not a big fan of this

 

FKA Twigs - Papi Pacify - the production for this is great, I truthfully care way more about MAGDALENE twigs, than pre-magdalene twigs so this didn't HIT me hard, but I liked it nevertheless

 

Missy Elliott - One Minute Man ft. Ludacris - hmm.. okay I guess? Wasn't that entertained but it was cute, not a huge fan of Ludacris contribution here either.

 

Halsey - Alone - something about this just sounds off imo :thing:  it's kinda fun I guess so I don't hate it but I feel like it's not complete

 

Beyoncé - All Night - GORGEOUS song, absolutely beautiful YUP :jonny5:

 

Teyana Taylor - Gonna Love Me - yeah I always liked this album a lot :clap3:  lovely lil moment, it's a shame I never connected with her recent album but this is great. Just very very solid song

 

Madonna - Hung Up - the way I listened to the hung up x dsn remix so much that I was waiting for dua to sing JSJSJ anyways this song is just absolutely AMAZING, an absolutely perfect pop song. The sample in here is so perfectly used as well, because it's so instantly recognizable but the song is strong enough to stand on its own as well :jonny5:

 

GROUP B

Spoiler

Before I start I will say this group did THAT :jonny5: almost every song here would most def be safe if it was in group A, my crits are a little harsher here but i liked almost every song here so x

 

Janelle Monae - Pynk ft. Grimes - This is like THE games section song and I'm just.. meh on it. The sample on this is also so unrecognizable that in a round about samples it doesn't excite me that much. It's still a great song on its own tho and in group A this would've devoured at least half of the songs but here idk

 

Drake - Take Care - worth the penalty me thinks, this is such an incredible track :jonny5:

 

Mariah Carey - A No No - she really repeaked quality wise with this album huh? very fun track, not sure where it'll rank in this group but you at least sent a great song so there's that

 

Lady Gaga - You And I - the way NOTHING on jopanned comes close to this :thing:  anyways this is lovely, but it's expected as BTW is her best album :mandown:  country (pop) done RIGHT

Carly Rae Jepsen - All That - it's carly and I don't have a connection with her, and in such a strong group with many songs I feel super connected with.. I'm gonna PASS! 

 

Beyoncé - Hold Up - kinda surprised by the mixed reaction this has gotten so far but that's I guess the downside of  being put in this group and perhaps looking worse in comparison even though this is a great track. Anyways I for one love this. Always preferred it to Sorry, such a great track

 

Notorious B.I.G. - Juicy - such a classic and I appreciate the risk :clap3: idk where this will rank for me (or overall) but if you're out you'll at least go out with a bang

 

Charlie XCX - You (Ha Ha Ha) - she was in her bag back then YUPP, such a great track

 

FKA Twigs - Fallen Alien - this maximalist ballad masterpiece..

 

insta.gif

 

Mariah Carey - GTFO - this is very lovely as well x cute lil moment

 

Kendrick Lamar - Loyalty ft. Rihanna - the way rihallah DEVOURED this, and the use of the sample here is so GENIUSSSSS ahhh this group will be so hard to rank
