BUBBLING UNDER
Totally forgot I had a bubbling under for the albums.
36. This was supposed to be "Based on a T.R.U. Story" by 2 Chainz, but I chose not to include it. Silliness at it's finest. Don't hate on me.
35. "Kiss", Carly Rae Jepsen
Call Me Maybe is no indication of how amazing this album is. "More Than A Memory" and "Beautiful" with Justin Bieber are stand outs, the former being a super adorable pop smash and the latter a great ballad that displays both singer's vocal talent.
34. "Hello My Name Is...", Bridgit Mendler
Also known as
The Only Disney Girl Your Fave Should Be Afraid Of. Bridgit has serious potential to break into the music industry, and this album makes that evident. Be sure to check out the opening track,
Ready Or Not. Also notable is
Love Will Tell Us Where To Go, which needs to become a single because it's R&B-pop perfection and it would be a smash if say, Rihanna or Beyonce had it. Let's not pay it dust just because a Disney girl sings it.
33. "Somethin' 'Bout Kreay", Kreayshawn
Another "guilty pleasure" of mine, me and 2,999 other people will be bopping to this album. "Twerkin'!!" is surely not a song to be taken seriously, and if you accept it for the silliness it is, you will fall in love with her rap or Diplo's strange murmuring. "Blase Blase" is just as good, yet I still have to find out what the hell the title means.
32. "The OF Tape Volume II", Odd Future
My brother would kill me if this wasn't on my list, this is surely his most played out album of the year (the decade? the century? of all?) Anything with Frank is a standout, the original "White" that is miles ahead of the version on Channel Orange, and "Analog 2", the coolest 'weird' song there is. But the best track is the ten minute "Oldie", a cypher of sorts featuring the entirety of Odd Future.
31. "Sticks + Stones", Cher Lloyd
This ten song album from my girl Cher is a pretty solid album, but I have to admit I forgot about it when I was listing albums. That doesn't negate the fact the three singles "Want U Back", "Oath", and "Swagger Jagger" are divine, with the latter being my favorite thing. In the world. A bit of an exaggeration, but this album is everything I want from Cher.
I
will be doing the first five (?) singles and first albums that are actually on the list tomorrow. And don't worry, the reviews will be way longer than these.
Also, if you want me to check your countdown out, feel free to tell me!
