THE TOP 30 WORST SONGS OF 2020...

Listomania begins as it should: quickly revealing the worst songs that I heard for the year. Quite a lot of repeat offenders, including a Jamaican topping the list for the first time. Enough said: here goes... 

1. Pink Pearl (Macka Diamond):  Macka continues to forge ahead, ironically, with dated and awkward sexually-laced lyrics that just sound utterly embarrassing.

2. Be With The King (IceJJFish):  maybe he should be praying for a better voice.

 

3. Loser REMIX (Chad Tepper feat. Cheat Codes): deliberately ridiculous.

 

4. H.O.E (Heaven On Earth) (Yo Gotti): what retard rap sounds like in its natural state.

 

5. Vida Loca (The Black Eyed Peas, Tyga & Nicky Jam):  not even sure where to begin with this rehashed mess.

 

6. Mi Readi (Demaro): to the contrary, not ready at all.

 

7. Illuminati (Lil Pump & Anuel AA): with tracks like these it’s no wonder Trump can’t get his name right.

 

8. Stove (Soulja Boy):  literally repeats the word “stove” right through.

 

9. Big Conspiracy (J Hus): speaking of hip/hop for dummy beginners. Ouch.

 

10. Bored In The House (Tyga & Curtis Roach): bored on the track too.

 

 

 

11. Hi, I’m Dave (Lil Dicky): not this shyt again…

 

12. Gave My Life To God (IceJJFish):  even when he turns to religion, he is still unbelievably trashy.

 

13. Stay Ur Distance (Yo Gotti): on some irrelevant hustler shit.

 

14. Remember The Times (Kodak Black):  don’t expect some MJ knock-off, this is some tepid elegy to lost souls.

 

15. Fight For Your Right (J Hus):  this British low energy rapping style is even less interesting than its American counterpart.

 

16. Wishing Well (Juice WRLD): not to speak ill of the dead but sometimes posthumous releases shouldn’t get released.

 

17. Quaranting (Lady Leshurr feat. Busy Signal):  not even the intervention of Busy can swing this around.

 

18. Change My Life(Stunna 4 Vegas feat. Blac Youngsta): sigh.

 

19. Chicken Shop Freestyle (Big Shaq):  his rapping is still textbook for dummies but to be fair, he as sounded far worse than this.

 

20. lnches (Spice):  maybe it’s time for her to sing about something other than herself.

 

 

 

 

 

21. Recession Proof (Yo Gotti):  when the lockdown is actually getting to you.

 

22. Vacation (Tyga):  if the chorus wasn’t so DOA then maybe it could have been salvaged.

 

23. Caution (Macka Diamond): more demure than other clunkers but still outside of the catchy chorus, still forgettable.

 

 

24. Up Front (Govana):  his constant assault on  a woman’s private parts sinks an otherwise fairly passable beat and unique flow. And using the term “vagi” is inexcusable bad.

 

25. Quarantine Thick (2 Chainz feat. Mulatto):  decent groove but horrible lyrics.

 

26. Krabby Step (Swae Lee, Tyga & Lil Mosey):  now he’s targeting pre-teen music territory and still missing the mark.

 

27. 23 (Jake Paul): never one to cease his appropriation of black culture.

 

28. Make You Dance (Meghan Trainor): old faithful.

 

29. How To Be Lonely (Rita Ora): literally belongs in a batch of B-side pop tracks put out every year.

 

30. Daisy (Ashnikko):  she almost pulled it into the bad girl territory she was aiming for but the opening lines are disaster.
