Chemicals - Miss Lewis is kinda becoming the IT producer huh? His nu-disco shtick has become popular and for a good reason, most of his output is really good. This is cute and he sings well. Very breezy and summery

 

Scream Drive Faster - The way B@g*ls made this a thing....... I hate it here. This is great though, if a bit faceless. We'll see how it stacks up.

 

driver's license - fan base] Lady Gaga - Page 17033 - Base - ATRL

 

Samson - She's so boring, it's a boring song and this title reminds me of the absolute worst person to ever roam this site. I hope he has a horrible day.

 

Please Don't Touch - This is surprisingly cute. I really like the chord progression in this

 

Pink + White - Yes Beyoncé yes #1 :heart2: this song is just a rainbow and sunshine after a storm. So uplifting and positive. LOVE IT

 

OctaHate - This top 50 CLASSIC.. it was my jam in 2015 :riri: Her voice is kinda annoying tho but this was MOMENT

 

Regardless - This is very H&M-core. Very basic deep house moment. Pretty forgettable :sorry:

 

Save the Best for Last - There's a reason she was never sent... this is AWFUL

 

Mago - I wrote about this in my best of (Link in bio) :heart2:

 

From this moment on - I AM SO BORED! This is garbage!

 

Sail On - Not this filler from her album.... Umm there were much better songs to chose from :riri2:

 

Motivation - My favorite Normani song!!!!! This was a cute pop moment, I can't make it not bop

 

On & On - This veers a BITTTTTTTT on pretentious crystal energy vibes BUT it is a classic and I quite love it.

 

 

You're welcome!

SG Lewis - Chemicals

Very cute and Tame Impala'd. The baseline is great. Mega bop I fear.

 

LAUREL - Scream Drive Faster

Cute synthpop bop. Love the solo at the end.

 

Olivia Rodrigo - Drivers License

I've finally been forced to listen to this. Very bland and corny.

 

Regina Spector - Samson

Not a fan of her, but this a singer/songwriter classic, undeniably. YOU WERE MY SWEETEST DOWNFALLLLLLLLL.

 

RAYE - Please Don't Touch

Very H&M. No thank ya.

 

Frank Ocean - Pink + White

Not a fan of him, but this is absolutely beautiful.

 

Ryn Weaver - OctaHate

Classic.

 

RAYE - Regardless

Cuter than the other one.

 

Vanessa Williams - Save the Best for Last

A classic, but a LITTLE bit crusty and dated.

 

GFRIEND - Mago

BOP.

 

Shania Twain - From This Moment On

A classic, but VERY crusty and dated.

 

Ryn Weaver - Sail On

There's better on the album, idk why the title track wasn't sent. This is fine tho.

 

Normani - Motivation

What do you smoke where you'd send Normani's "Motivation" over Kelly Rowland's? Just wondering. Anyway, it's cute, but I got over this so fast.

 

Erykah Badu - On & On

Where do I begin? One of the most iconic R&B tracks ever. Neo-soul production that you can taste and feel. "On & On" isn't a song, it's a lifestyle.

SG Lewis - Chemicals: His sing with Robyn was really good, this bops too :jamming:
 

LAUREL - Scream Drive Faster: Her EP was really good, her voice kinda reminds me of F+TM :katie2:
 

Olivia Rodrigo - drivers licenseI can't stand her Gen Z'd voice, this is just a basic Billie Eilish rehash tbh and I don't care for Billie so...
 

Regina Spektor - Samson: It's giving Olivia but not as Gen Z'd
 

Raye - Please Don’t Touch: Yaaaaas zTrNoUj.gif
 

Frank Ocean - Pink+White: This is quite cute, sounds like a sunrise 
 

Ryn Weaver - Octahate: Her voice is kinda annoying at first, but it's a bop. Cute Bubbling Under hit
 

Raye - Regardless: This song is so addictive, glad it's becoming a UK hit 7lwIzrs.gif
 

Vanessa Williams - Save the Best for Last: It's nice.
 

GFRIEND - MAGO: WINNER!!! Gfriend Mago GIF - Gfriend Mago WalpurgisNight GIFs
 

Shania Twain - From This Moment On: I like it but you could have sent MIFLAW or TDIMM or even YSTO
 

Ryn Weaver - Sail On: Better than I expected tbh
 

Normani - Motivation: It was a cute Check On It rehash / Ariana reject, I guess
 

Erykah Badu - On & On: Meh

SG Lewis - Chemicals

my impact yeah the Hallucinate producer snapped on the production here. Vocals could be better but the production here is the main selling point and it's great. He's def one to watch

 

LAUREL - Scream Drive Faster

my impact (2) This is a big bop. Very nice pick

 

Olivia Rodrigo - drivers license

idk if this was the smartest choice considering it was to be expected that this was going to be polarizing. I like it personally. Very Lorde lite, the bridge is also great. Pretty decent stuff all around imo

 

Regina Spektor - Samson

Her voice is pretty but this.. didn't really interest me that much. Sending ballads are risky anyways cause they either have to be gut wrenching, have great production or just be classics, and Samson for me isn't any of those so :)  I like it better than a few songs here for what it's worth

 

Raye - Please Don’t Touch

Yes it's more on the faceless side, but it's a very solid pop song in the end. Very enjoyable imo

 

Frank Ocean - Pink+White

Beautiful!! The background vocals from Bey makes this even better. Great lyrically as well. Great pick!

 

Ryn Weaver - Octahate

I don't.. hate this one? Her voice is rough but it works here at least. The production here kinda aged for me but overall it's not the worst thing here. Fine pick

 

Raye - Regardless

The only thing this song did for me was make the other Raye song seem less faceless :thing:  Personally not the biggest fan, but it's in no way a bad song  either. The production is decent, and there's worse

 

Vanessa Williams - Save the Best for Last

Not my thing at all. Very corny and dated. I guess certain audiences love it so maybe you have some chances but this is really not for me

 

GFRIEND - MAGO

this is surprisingly great :eek:  The production on this is very early gaga-esque but good this time

No complaints tbh

 

Shania Twain - From This Moment On

a very.. ehm.. odd choice? Why would you pick this out of all the Shania songs you could pick? Surely you don't think this would do better than MIFLAW or TDIMM :huh: ?? The song has the same issues as the Vanessa song, but this one feels even cornier and the featured artist here is very.. not needed. Not a great pick imo

 

Ryn Weaver - Sail On

Oh girl she was struggling here :rip:  The production at least was cute but this was not cute vocally. On the verge of.. goat :thing: 

 

Normani - Motivation

Perfectly.. adequate? Nothing mindblowing but it's a cute lil moment. Nothing I'd really go back to and yeah there was a better Motivation out there

 

Erykah Badu - On & On

Very nice and I appreciate the risk. It's a very soothing and pretty track. Nice pick!

SG LEWIS - CHEMICALS 

I really like the vibe of this track. I'd probably like it more if someone else was singing it, but it's solid. 

 

LAUREL - SCREAM DRIVE FASTER 

This is a nice track, but I wish she had a little more emotion in her voice. 

 

OLIVIA RODRIGO - DRIVERS LICENSE 

Purr. @miguelfound in a fender bender. 

 

REGINA SPEKTOR - SAMSON 

A truly beautiful song with a haunting message. 

 

RAYE - PLEASE DON'T TOUCH

There are some tweaks that I would make to this track if I was in the studio, but it's enjoyable. 

 

FRANK OCEAN - PINK + WHITE

I've noticed that I can be pretty hot/cold with new school R&B. This song is solid, but it doesn't really stick with me. 

 

RYN WEAVER - OCTAHATE 

I think a good chunk of The Fool has held up better than this, but Octahate is still a bop, and the choice makes sense. 

 

RAYE - REGARDLESS

This is the inferior RAYE song this round, but it's not a bad track. 

 

VANESSA WILLIAMS - SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST 

This song reminds me of when my grandma would take me with her to run errands and would turn on the radio. Grandma has taste though, cause this song made some points.

 

GFRIEND - MAGO 

Wendy_williams_dancing.gif

 

SHANIA TWAIN - FROM THIS MOMENT ON 

It's not bad, but very basic. 

 

RYN WEAVER - SAIL ON 

Still pretty good, but there were definitely a lot of better Ryn options. 

 

NORMANI - MOTIVATION 

Deserved to be a Top 10 hit idc idc. 

 

ERYKAH  BADU - ON & ON 

No thank you, Hoteptress Erykah.

SG Lewis — Chemicals

The production’s lovely. The other components are nice but don’t do much for me.

 

LAUREL — Scream Drive Faster

The verses/pre-choruses were much stronger; the chorus drags things down a bit.

 

Olivia Rodrigo — drivers license

Finally hearing what the hype’s about & I could definitely see how the pre-teens/teens of today see her as their Lorde/Taylor equivalent. Song’s not for me much but she’s talented.

 

Regina Spektor — Samson

Lovely!

 

RAYE — Please Don’t Touch

The project’s titled well — it does have that bit of euphoric-Pop feel. I enjoyed it!

 

Frank Ocean — Pink + White

Very nice / easy listening. Needa stop procrastinating & go through his catalogue.

 

Ryn Weaver — OctaHate

Haven’t listened to this in ages, but it doesn’t feel like it! That chorus has always been an ace for me.

 

RAYE & Rudimental — Regardless

I prefer “Please Don’t Touch”, but this is still nice.

 

Vanessa Williams — Save the Best for Last

Vanessa’s still that woman - very cute choice for the nostalgia.

 

GFRIEND — MAGO

Definitely prefer this productional approach as opposed to those electro-bass-styled K-Pop tracks. 

 

Shania Twain — From This Moment On

Shana’s voice is lovely but I could never get into her slower songs.

 

Ryn Weaver — Sail On

Couldn’t get into this one either. At least the ending bit is eventful.

 

Normani — Motivation

Love Mani & the song is cute so it’ll get a nice rank from me. Such a shame 6LACK was banned, Waves woulda been my #1.

 

Erykah Badu — On & On

Nice to finally hear this classic. Love everything about it, can definitely hear why it's a classic.
