But great job with the rate in general, was very very fun to watch.

That pretentious opening monologue though. Lana her never-ending impact.

Definitely didn't give CFNR a 10! But yay for the winner, it is truly best song in this rate!

minho

Fun rate but really strange/boring results

Good job conatus!

Subomie

jessie ware has got to have the biggest sophomore slump since ever, totally gross results overall

conatus

Hope to see you all in Part 2!

Oh, good. Tough Love really shouldn't have won but it's far better than the alternative.

As opposed to Crying for No Reason's complete lack of a hook.

Oh, I gave them both the same score. CFNR has a better hook but it's also just way too slow and never builds up that tension into something amazing.

yes I will bitch! V V and Janelle are getting all my 10s.

Lukey

Woo, great, awesome, I gave both a 9 so it's not a big deal who won.

Tough Love is great though and everyone complaining about it can take a seat cause you clearly didn't vote low enough for it to not win.

Eeveelution

A very deserving winner, you were a great host too Connor, ready to drag Santi in part 2!

can't wait for part 2 tbh! VV Brown and Janelle have amazing albums, it'll be nice to actually feel passionate for the songs

Edit: Wait you changed that OP with quickness

Are we using the same rate thread??

conatus

Updated the OP in anticipation for Part 2!

Welcome to Part 2 of the Sweet Sophomores Rate, hosted by yours truly, conatus!

In this thread, we will be honouring and rating the music of bold, daring, and talented female musicians, who I feel are incredibly underrated both on ATRL and in general.

Each artist's most recent studio album was their sophomore effort, and these are the releases which will be used in the rate.

Which artists will we be rating? Well, in Part 2, the following albums will be included:

The Electric Lady by Janelle Monáe

Cut Your Teeth by Kyla La Grange

Trouble by Natalia Kills

Master of My Make-Believe by Santigold

Samson & Delilah by V V Brown

Now for the boring stuff:

If you choose to participate, you must give each song a score between 0 and 10. If you fail to give a score to at least one song, your rates will not be counted.

Scores of 0 are allowed, and decimals of up to 2 places are allowed. That means, a 9.75 will be counted, but a 3.84152 will not.

Scores that are quite obviously trolling will not be counted. Examples would be: giving one of the artists a score 0 for every song, while giving the other artists nothing but 10s; or, alternatively, giving one of the artists a score of 10 for every song, while giving the other artists nothing but 0s.

Rates must be received by 9pm GMT on the 19th of April, 2015. That will give you 3 weeks to listen to and rate the songs. PM your rates to me by then in order for them to be counted.

PM-friendly list of songs

Happy voting!

Subomie

No thank you!

However, I might end up listening to the albums when I'm drunk because clearly everyone was drunk for part 1

Sazare

Yas conanus thank you

I may or may not participate in the second, depending on whether I can get through those albums.

Tymps.

I don't think I'll do pt. 2, I only like one album and I don't want to drag everything else to the pits.

Marq

And the best song prevails.

Bloomers

Congratulations to Jessie's song.

Thanks conatus for hosting. This was a lot of fun! Looking forward to the next one!
