45. Kendrick Lamar f/ James Fauntleroy + Ronald Isley - How Much a Dollar Cost
If you're on the hunt for backing tracks and you're faced with the choice between:
'Pyramid Song'
+
late ass Pharrell rejects that don't go anywhere
I would always have to say to swing toward the former!
Kinda haunting
44. Rihanna f/ Kanye West + Paul McCarthy - FourFiveSeconds
nn this album cycle is a bit of a disaster but at least we didn't have to wait long for its very best
so far, a campfire-style singalong with all the vocalized ~upfrontness we've come to expect from
Rihanna at this stage in her evolution process, a lil pinch of the weirdness we expect from Kanye,
+ a Beatle (!) in the middle just there to bridge it together
43. Jamie xx - Gosh
Funny all the words I would use to describe this are right there
inside of it clashin against the void: UK; massive; 'oh my gosh'
42. Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean?
The slightness of the tick-tocks and the BARELY-there breathiness of his vocal performance
come together in a recipe for the most innately likable pop song of the year
41. Dan Deacon - Learning to Relax
