Two Way Street is good! But it's not one of her best so it's confusing as to why it made it above her way better songs.

Not much hate for this song by the raters, we agree that it's one of her best. From her first two lines you pretty much get that “Ecstasy” is very sensual sex jam. It emulates a little bit of Aaliyah, Ciara and Brandy but it's still fresh.

It feels a LITTLE too sugary in spots but still not The Worst.

I'm 99% convinced brando and borntodie are the same person. 
If I'm wrong and they're 2 different people, they need to date

I rated it a little too nicely based on my love for the Drake track.

Poor Two Way Street! But Cameo Lover + Settle Down are still here so I'm not bothered.

Not all music is about melodies. His music is monotonous on purpose. His whole album is like that  |

I'm glad Autre Ne Veut and How To Dress Well are holding up so well! Tinashe also has her two best songs left so nothing too dramatic. The top 40 actually looks pretty decent for the most part.

The Worst needs to GO. I can't even remember what I rated it, but hopefully I didn't give it anything above a 6.
