ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted May 1, 2023 ATRL Moderator Share Posted May 1, 2023 How should we define 2022 in popular music? By the genre-defying international breakthrough riding deafening buzz or the year’s top seller, a Spanish-language album for the first time? By the Grammys’ Album of the Year winner, crowning the industry’s next great hope, or the masterpiece from a long-absent superstar that it shockingly beat, which earned more fervent critical acclaim than any other project in those twelve months? By the record-breaking return of the world’s biggest pop star or the surprise release that usurped the zeitgeist, slipping in just before we closed the books on the year? This is your chance to decide. Which of 2022’s biggest and best albums was your favorite? You can help choose the winner by ranking each of these 120 songs on a scale of 1-10 and then sending me your ballot by Wednesday, May 31. Please listen to everything again at least once before submitting. I want honest assessments, not scores based on your memory or biases. Up to two decimal points are allowed. Feel free to include commentary if you are so moved. And no trolling or your vote will be tossed. Happy listening! Results Spoiler 1. "Virgo's Groove" Beyoncé 2. "Good Days" SZA 3.

BGKC Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 This should be fun. I haven’t listened to Un Verano Sin Ti or Harry’s House in full yet, so I’ll get to that and try to send over my ballot sometime this week. Virgos Groove and America Has A Problem are 11/10s btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sazare Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 This looks fun! I’ve only listened to one and a half of these albums (Renaissance and Motomami, respectively) but this would give me a reason to listen to the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewan Chaos Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Two of these albums TOWER over the rest. But don't you worry babes, I'm MORE than happy to participate and give designated lashings where deserved (along with VERY high scores for those other two).

Hmm no tbh this time I'm pretty satisfied with the choices, I think all are justified! I'd swap Harry or Bad Bunny for Dawn FM since it scored great acclaim, but I guess it was a fad compared to big success of other two eras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
