Imagine that 2NE1 and Allie X songs surviving I just realized by Bottom2 I meant OVERALL B2 to keep sending mid entries. Screamin’ But listen you never know w the results! - this round could be very tight/surprising.
bestfiction Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 SOPHIE - Is It Cold In The Water?: just stunning. RIP angel
Tom Vercetti Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Ravyn Lenae - M.I.A. - Her best entry this season imo. Eyedi - & New - Don’t like this as much as her other singles but it’s still decent Janelle Monáe - Oh, Maker - Not bad but I think it’s because all her other songs which were my faves have been sent already, so this doesn’t stick to me like it should. Sky Ferreira - Nobody Asked Me (If I Was Okay) - Great song from great album. Title name reminds me of My Chemical Romance too. 2NE1 - I Don’t Care - I don’t think I’ll be able to save this one unfortunately so yeah white flag. Jean Deaux - Recipe! - Not very memorable. YUKIKA - pit-a-pet - Another smash hit from her. Wolf Alice - Don’t Delete The Kisses - it’s their best song I think but I’m still not that into them. Shura - What’s It Gonna Be? - I always thought this was something that should’ve been used a while ago. With that said, I like it. Kiana Ledé - Chocolate. (feat. Ari Lennox) - It’s listenable, sure. Ari did help. Allie X - GLAM! - Nty. Song’s on the shouty side. K. Michelle - V.S.O.P. - Solid enough for points. SOPHIE - Is It Cold In The Water? - It’s a good song sound design wise but def not a clever fit for this playlist. Will still support. Chloe x Halle - Don’t Make It Harder On Me - It’s fine. Doesn’t move me much though. Bree Runway - What Do I Tell My Friends? - When the beat kicks in it’s good. Kilo Kish - DISTRACTION III: SPOILED ROTTEN - I would’ve preferred new tricks too but this still does get the job done.

I hope I gave you enough points after you gave me a 12 last round x hope you gave me some now tho lol
bestfiction Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Chloe x Halle - Don’t Make It Harder On Me: has this really nice throwback vibe
bestfiction Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Bree Runway - What Do I Tell My Friends?: wasn't really a fan of this one
bestfiction Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Kilo Kish - DISTRACTION III: SPOILED ROTTEN: nice vibe, stellar way to finish the round
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 M.I.A.: chill vibes, expensive instrumentation supplemented with these ambient sounds and quite stunning layering mmmm
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 & New: it comes together very nicely. Nothing groundbreaking but it’s light and bouncy and fun
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Oh, Maker: this is one of my favourite albums ever, and the spell it had over me in the early 10s is something. I never had a special connection with this particular track which feels a bit backgroundish but it’s very good nonetheless and will be getting points yeh
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Sky: it feels a bit abrasive. Not really my kind of music but yeh it’s undeniably strong. I already know this is a competitive round so idk about points but could challenge
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 2NE1: sorry to whoever sent this but it’s without doubt the worst song of the round
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Recipe!: never heard this before the round and I’m pleasantly surprised, it’s moderately to very interesting and stylish. The pacing is lovely. And the vocal delivery (half talking ting) works nicely- I would definitely revisit
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Yukika: I mean, it’s great. The production is so punchy? The structure is fascinating especially in the middle third, it keeps developing and surprising. I don’t know how to explain this but it somehow feels sparse but also explosive and intricate simultaneously
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Wolf Aloce: it’s ethereal, it’s magical, it’s 5 years old yet also the moment and was the musical climax of Heartbreaker for sure
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 hmmm just got home but I can’t find my headphones… qualms
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Shura: it’s feel good, it’s uplifting and lovely. It’s not trying to be anything it’s not, like it’s content in being a light + well made bop. She isn’t very charismatic but oh well!
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Chocolate: smooth and enjoyable. This is harsh but it’s kinda verging on generic tho
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Allie X: This feels very 2014 which is odd considering it was released last year. It lightly bops but feels cheap compared to the competition
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 VSOP: I can understand why people apparently love this song, and I do like it too. There’s this kind of charming strength to it, definitely anthemic leaning, kinda like the R&B version of a power ballad. But it’s a bit corny to score highly
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Sophie: people are doing this wrong omg. It’s a lot but it’s stunning. The eclectic chaos is something nobody has ever executed quite like this before or since
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 CXH: very good song on a very consistently good album
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Bree: I enjoy this but I do agree with a prior critique that it probably verges on faceless, like anyone could sing this e.g. it would easily fit on a Raye project. I’m going to score it well regardless tho
Fruity Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Kilo Kish: hmmmm she’s so powerful. I whole heartedly approve, my only criticism is that it feels kinda disjointed / jarring. But that’s kinda the point so…
