Pop Smoke f/ Dua Lipa - Demeanor

Is it a good song? Not at all honestly. It's very disjointed and you can tell they are running out of his proper demos to use so they started piecing random ideas together trying to force something passable. However I'm still a Dua love at heart and her verse was amazing, her delivery was hot as fuck and made me spin the song TONS of times this year so I had to drop it here somehwere.

 

 

 

Elton John & Dua Lipa - Cold Heart (PNAU Remix)

That's a much better offering from Dua this year. PNAU did an amazing job blending these Elton classics together with a warm groovy production. So happy to see it smashing around the world, though not gonna lie it was very unexpected. This cool breakdown by David Bennett on YouTube made me appreciate it even more. But in its core it's still more of a cute mashup than a new song so.

 

 

 

Kylie Minogue & Dua Lipa -  Real Groove (Studio 2054 Remix)

You thought we are done with Dua in this reveal huh? A collab between these ladies was (and kind of still remains) a dream, especially on one of the best songs on Disco which got notably compared to Future Nostalgia right after the release. This remix however, while I'm still glad it exists, doesn't really count as a proper collab with Dua's vocals being barely there, blended in and lost behind Kylie's lead and big instrumentation. I still love the remix though! With or without Dua it's funky af.

 

 

 

Hyd - Skin 2 Skin

Glad to see QT is back with a new material, especially penned with help of Caroline Polachek. The whole new HYD EP is pretty decent, but I'm waiting for more fireworks. So far this track was the biggest stand out for me, hope we hear more in the future.

 

 

 

Madison Beer - Default

She's been so hyped this year and I'm gonna admit the album was a pretty interesting debut from a new pop girl. Hope she continues the path of songs like Default / Selfish / Effortlessly rather than BOYSHIT or Good In Goodbye. Ultimately tho my favorite track on the album is Default and it feels rather like an interlude so I didn't feel like putting it ont he main list.

 

 

 

Zara Larsson - Poster Girl

I was anticipating this whole record a lot, the original pre-release singles were all so fucking sick (Don't Worry Bout Me, All The Time, Love Me Land especially), I kept rewinding her own words of making ABBA on acid pop bangers. But is Poster Girl really all that? I found myself obsessed with the title track and 2/3 other cuts upon the release, but they all aged rather quickly and I'm still mostly coming back to pre-album singles. Hopefully Zara will surprise me in the future again, cause she does have an X factor and it shines when I see her on stage.

Yeah I realized last year that there still are quite a lot of people who don't care about K-pop at all (used to be me!) so every update will have something for both groups

Where's albums report :eli:

I really struggled to rank my favorite albums this year, let alone pick an AOTY due to lack of great material :mandown: But I'll be noting projects I really liked during songs reveals

It's so damn hard sometimes, but Top 50 is much less than it feels like so I had to

Sadly I'm an Orbit (rip) so they could fart and I'd still place them in top 30
