34. The first, and highest-ranking single by a rapper from St. Louis; it's one known to be widely disliked on M4B.
33. The second of 2 pop hits by an R&B group from New Jersey; the first is barely disqualified, as it debut just prior to the start of the Bengino era.
32. The breakout hit by a pop/rock band from Oklahoma; at the time I started charting, I had written them off as a one-hit wonder, but I was obviously wrong.
31. The only Pop #1 by a singer who had a number of hits between late 1999 and the first year of my chart, but hasn't made a single appearance in 12 years.
30. This Mexican singer has had a great deal of success in the Latin market, in music and on television, but she has had only one Pop hit which crossed over.
29. Like the previous one, the singer in question is female and Hispanic; only this time, it was the first of 9 pop hits for her, 3 of which made top 10.
28. The last top 40 hit by a singer who appeared in the previous set, and whose discography begins in the mid-90's.
27. The only song to make the list which DNCed both on Pop and on ROTN; I was introduced to it by a former M4B member.
26. The only Bengino #1 by a singer whose most recent album was a complete disappointment for me, all of the singles from which failed to make my top 50.
25. Due to timing, this band's lead singer ended up having 9 hits on my chart before having one with the band.
24. The first of 5 pop hits by a male singer from Virginia with a very unusual-sounding last name.
23. This song shares its title with a minor Pitbull hit from 2008; the Pitbull song doesn't contain the title in its lyrics, but this one does.
22. Oddly enough, this song by an R&B singer from Washington, D.C. doesn't contain its title in its lyrics either.
21. The breakout hit by a singer who, in my opinion, had multiple excellent songs when she was 18, but is a total write-off now.
20. The second of 2 consecutive Bengino #1's by a group which appeared in the last set.
19. The first of 7 pop hits by a pop-rock band from Texas with a most bizarre-sounding name.
18. The biggest Bengino hit by a legendary performer who is expected to release a new album later this year.

Madonna - Die Another Day? 34, 33, 32, 31, 28, 27, 26, 24, 23, 21, 20, 19 and 18 are all correct. 30 is a great guess, and does fit the clue, although I Want You didn't make it. The song I'm looking for doesn't feature anyone, and was released just over a year before I Want You. 25, right artist, wrong song; It's My Life already crashed out at #114. Considering what other songs have already crashed out, only 2 possibilities remain, and the one I'm looking for was the bigger hit of the 2 by far.

Correct! That leaves just 22 and 29, which peaked only one week apart from each other. The artist at 29 had her only #1 for me in early 2006, but had a much bigger Pop hit in mid-2006.

Now on to the last set! So that the final results should not be revealed early, I have randomized the order of the remaining 17 songs, and given each clue a letter from "A" to "Q". Therefore, with 17 correct guesses, the remaining songs may be revealed early, but their positions will not be revealed until this Thursday evening. [ A ] The only artist to have 2 songs in this remaining set, it's the lower-ranking of the 2. This is also the only artist to have 4 songs in the top 50. [ B ] This R&B singer from New Jersey had a 6-week #1 for me just about a year after I started charting. This song of hers was accompanied by a very suggestive video. [ C ] She had a #3 for me earlier this year, but hasn't charted on Pop in 14 years. This was the second of her 2 pop top 10's. [ D ] This band from California had my #1 song of 2013, against all expectations; this is my favorite Bengino song of theirs, from their first album. [ E ] In 2018, she DNCed for me for the first time with a pop single, which goes to show just how much she sucks now; it's something even Beyonce hasn't done. Even a very immature-sounding song of hers from 2014 managed to get #44 for me. This was her last Pop #1. [ F ] The only appearance by a Canadian band which had a #11 hit for me in 2009. [ G ] She followed up this Pop #1 with a #34 hit featuring a popular Jamaican artist. [ H ] The other appearance by the only artist to have 2 entries in this final set; it was their debut single. [ I ] Right at the time when this single was riding high on the charts, the singer became embroiled in a high-profile sex scandal. [ J ] His only #1 for me came as part of a "group" on August 7, 2010. This was a solo single of his, of course, and my favorite from the Bengino era. [ K ] Her debut single, and most successful, which beats out her sister's 2 appearances on this list. [ L ] The only entry on this list by a singer from Connecticut, many of whose other songs I have disliked, especially when he went donkeyhead in 2006. [ M ] The second single, and a Pop #1, by a Canadian singer who, like many others who I enjoyed very much during the Bengino era, sucks now. [ N ] This song featured a rapper and a female R&B singer, both of whom were born in New York. It was notable for the rapper's unusual attempt at singing rather than rapping. [ O ] The most successful pop hit, and first of 3 top 10's, by an R&B singer from Virginia. After the Bengino era, she had only 1 pop appearance. [ P ] This singer has had a total of 21 pop hits in the past 16 years, of which this was the second. Earlier this year, a lead-off single of his fell 2-20 for me in one week, breaking his own record of 2-16. [ Q ] The last of 3 pop hits, all of which were Bengino, by a singer from New Zealand.

B, E, G, I, J, K, M, O, P and Q are all correct.
C, right artist, wrong song; Can't Get You Out Of My Head crashed out at #47. I'll give away that it's not an obscure song, which leaves only 1 possibility.
L, again, right artist, wrong song; No Such Thing didn't make it, although it does fit the clue as it's one of his songs that I do like. I'm looking for the song which immediately followed it.
N, you've got the female artist correct, but What's Luv crashed out at #109. Like What's Luv, it peaked at #3 on Pop.

C. Love At First Sight? (this actually missed the pop top 10, but her 1988 remake of "The Loco-Motion" made it, which threw me off) L. Your Body Is A Wonderland? N. Ja Rule f/Ashanti - Always On Time?
