[Sanguine]

So true and real… AOTY deserved for Bea

 

You’re still not right for putting SOS above the few below it though it’s a cute girl, 3-8 all best albums ever

 

The entire 11-20 slays  Ethel deserved top ten though!

 

Pretty much love everything except Crash and Beach House from the top forty 

 

The Worst Of yeah… you SUCK for panning Black Dresses but I shouldn’t have made you listen jdjdjdhf. Santigold wasn’t that bad and Bladee misunderstood king but the rest  + Panic deserved bottom one, the stan behavior being exhibited omg

[smholiv]

Beatopia PERFECT choice for AOTY. Her best album yet and such a great album from this year 

The entire top 8 are 8+ albums from me too, slayssss, shook at SOS being that high already!!

Yeule being top 3 IKTR. So rare for me to have an album at the beginning of the year that holds up that long but they did it

 

Rosalia grower of the year

Love that there's so many 9+s for you!! 2022 had a lot tbh

The top 20 has some slays :mandolin:  Isabella's album :fallingjonny: amazing discovery of the year

 

Worst of:

Panic is way too (low?) should've been in the top 3 worst of... omg

BCNR PANNED yup

 

 

 

[Polgg48]

beabadoobee - Beatopia: 9.4 - amazing

Isabella Lovestory - Amor Hardcore: 8.8 - bops

That Kid - Superstar: 8.6 - yep

Addison Rae - 2 Die 4: 8.3 - talent

Pale Waves - Unwanted: 7.2 - work
mxmtoon - rising: 6.4 - cute
Jackson Wang - MAGIC MAN: 5.4 - too high

 

great taste

 

Kat Graham - Long Hot Summer: 2.2

Tegan & Sara - Crybaby: 2.3

 

scream at these two

[worldwide angel]

you’re one of the only people ik that loves nymph that much  are you a fellow honey stan 

 

 

also not kat graham released an album

[Legend E]

well nothing that I like in that worst album list  

Beatopia was a good album! Renaissance, GTWA,  Midnights, DF in the top 10  

Glad you also appreciate HTG a bit  

[Alex]

Hypnos deserved top 10 

[Mark Rih]

47. Addison Rae - I Got It Bad

we were robbed of her music career, best Tiktok girl (followed by Leah Kate)

 

exactly

 

 

SOS already top 2 on the album list she really delivered.

however.. where is AOTY FM?

[Mr. Blue_Shirt]

SOS, Renaissance, Giving The World Away, MOTOMAMI in the top 10 yes

these smashes  surprised ethel only got a 8.9 though

[Into The Void]

Omg u scored 180 albums 

[Alldeezy]

About last night  sos at #1 considering it dropped this month

[potent]

Oh wow so much taste here, I just don't know that #3 but otherwise the top 5 is flawless. Love the Bea and Hatchie stanning.

Blue Rev, OTM, Midnights, The Kick

 

I listened to that T&S album and I liked some songs (Under My Control is great), but uhhh... yeah not to the standard of their previous stuff.

Would not even bother with artists like MGK or Jack Harlow but I'll believe you lol

 

Some good stuff in 51-180 although nothing I'm too upset about. I liked Laurel Hell but I'm not super familiar with her other stuff so it's hard to compare.

Special is about the type of music you'd expect from Lizzo but there are still some bops.

MUNA and Harry were generic-ish. I did love Love Sux. Sigrid was fine I mainly just remember Driver Saved My Night which is a bop and a half.

AURORA barely missing out

[TheWayWeWere]

Aguilera wasn't that bad, but campaign around its release

BIG   not best Betty work tbh

SOS/Renaissance/Midnights in top 5  

nice to see Dirt Femme and Hold the Girl  both kinda disappointed me tho after the string of great singles

Mabel and Foxes back to back   we love some basic pop  

 

[Remmy]

Not SZA #2 so quickly, damn... not a fan of Bea  Bey and Hatchie top 5 though yesss  with Taylor & Tove not far behind. Rina and Foxes  Charli, Sobs, Kilo  There's a lot of other albums I enjoy on the list but it's just so damn long nnn but wow there's plenty that are WAY too low... as for the Worst Albums list, the only one I enjoy is Betty's but a 2.6?????? Be serious. It is her weakest album though. Panic! definitely deserves to be there and luckily I didn't hear any of these other flops.

[K$Ellie]

let me finally post my song list tonight... 

[TRF.]

Shygirl, Rosalía, Bey, yeule, Weyes Blood, Tove Lo, Hatchie and SZA in the top 10  that said the pannings towards Bladee and BCNR...  

[TalkThatRihanna]

SOS already at #2

 

Panic! and Chainsmokers dragged as they should be

[Legend E]

:waitin: for the songs

[Alena]

Love

[Staryu]

Love 2
