Videos of the Year
#2 KDA - Just Say (ft. Tinashe)
A new aesthetic. Tinashe really did that!!  I really love the color, the ‘choreo’, her looks, the neon theme, and the edit are perfect. The video also helped the song to gain more exposure in the UK and charted. As of now, the video only has gained about 1,6M views, very underrated.

Albums of the Year
#4 Frank Ocean - Blonde
not really better than channel.Orange, but I think it's more cohesive, though the interludes are kind of unnecessary, but it's totally worth the wait 
#3 Rihanna - Anti
finally after 3 years of waiting, the mess and all  totally worth the wait. amazing album, talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, anti mainstream, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, sh*t on it, vomit on it, eat it, 460, give birth to it 
#2 The Weeknd - Starboy
his best work since House of Ballons. putting out his inner MJ vibes, cohesive but versatile, has bops, future ruined 2 songs on it though but still great, daddy did that

TIWYCF's video is cute. Didn't hear that song so I guess it is underrated indeed 
Albums #7-5 ~ Lady Wood  Dangerous Woman Both have tons of bops on 'em
Songs #7-5~ James Joint being this high, hmm 
Albums #4-3~ ANTI Definitely worth the wait! Abel came thru with Starboy, so much better than BBTM and it has way more standout tracks as well.
Songs #4-2~ Just Say snatching all the #2 spots  KIB missing the top 3  Not here for this

Underrated Singles of the Year
#1 Rihanna - Kiss It Better
Kiss It Better was supposed to be the lead single off ANTI and released on Glass John's birthday (he's one of the writers) on Nov 6 2015. The video ( apparently was filmed in October 2015 ). But due to something (not sure what, but probably album delays) she canceled it ( as well as her VSFS performance). So then later she released this as the second single off ANTI alongside Needed Me. But then she canceled her Grammys performance, that's by the description from James Corden it was gonna be legendary and iconic. Due to Needed Me success on its own, KIB got overshadowed and only peaked at #62 . She also didn't perform the song at VMAs as part of her medleys and always skip the song on festivals (except MIA). It seems like she used to love the song but now she hates it  #JusticeForKissItBetter
(p.s. well, at least it's grammy nominated)

Videos of the Year
#1 Rihanna - Kiss It Better
Kiss It Better video was released on March 30, in my timezone it was about 11pm I set an alarm and went up just to watch the video and.. WOW HER BEST VIDEO the black & white color, a very simple concept, the edit, her hair, her outfit, QUEEN IS SERVING LOOKS!! A perfect video with the perfect song, it really fits each other. Some of y'all might say that it's boring or it's decent, but well for me this is perfect. This video is extremely underrated, because many were expecting a video with a storyline or such, but Queen doesn't need any story line to make a perfect video. This video actually showing Rih getting her ***** kissed better so it is indeed fits the song.

Albums of the Year
#1 Tinashe - Nightride
I thought she wouldn’t do a full dark R&B project anymore, but thank God I was wrong. It was a surprise release and I’m surprised. The album starts with Lucid Dreaming, more like Dreams Are Real twin sister then followed by C’est La Vie, a slow R&B bop, then continued with Sunburn, very calming, dark, with the well-written line I’m seeing pink cause I’ve been lookin at the brightside, I ain’t letting nobody cloud up all my blue sky. The first interlude Binaural Test, yes queen T did it! Invented ASMR, queen of humming, then followed by the fan-favorite urban hit, Sacrifices and Company that makes it even greater with her whispering “I will not be ignored” on Sacrifices then transitioning into Company. Here we are, in the holy trinity, starts with Soul Glitch aka Cold Sweat’s twin sister with the perfect written lyrics and production at its finest with You Don’t Know Me and Spacetime The second interlude, High Speed Chase which was produced by her brother, super great production and nice lyrics. Then the album continues with the smash hits, Ride of Your Life and Party Favors. But the album version of Party Favors is different with the single version, new bridge. The third and last interlude called You Can Stay Here Tonight (but I’d rather call it Walking) leads you to the last section of the album with the pop-to-be-smash Touch Pass (which probably might make its way to Joyride as well) and fan favorite Ghetto Boy with Dev Hynes perfect guitar solo outro. Overall the lyrics, production, interludes yaass queen T did that!!

All these drops at the same time
Kiss It Better for #1 Underrated Single Very well deserved, it should've had Work's success tbh.
As for video of the year, hmm  Can't say I agree with that, but it's not awful or anything.
Love Tinashe but her mixtapes never interest me, so I'm not here for ha snatching AOTY.
