Before we get to my top 100 best songs... it's time for my worst of 2020! Which songs rattled my ears enough to make the list?
2020 was a year full of awful songs, and many of them sadly became hits. Some were worse than others though, and that's where lists like this come in.
Disclaimer: This list is not intended as a direct attack towards anyone who may like any songs on this. It's a matter of my own opinion and nobody else's.
Note: There were a lot of songs that I'm sure I would've hated, but I never heard them so they miss out on the list. I'm talking about basically any mumble rap I managed to avoid.
First up, among the many songs I considered but found songs worse than them:
Black Eyed Peas - RITMO (Bad Boys For Life) / Mamacita
You know when even the Whack Eyed Peas miss out on the top 10, that there was a lot of awful crap! Seriously, these guys have been among my most hated groups for over a decade now, and among the worst songs they've done contain samples from past hits, completely ruining them with their awful auto-tune and annoying beats! It's gotten to the point where they are now permanently banned from my chart and I will never give anything from them a chance ever again - and these two are proof that I will never even remotely like anything they do from now on.
Blackbear - Hot Girl Bummer
Just bland, annoying trap garbage. All I have to say to this is f*** you, and you, and yoooooouuuuuu.
Blackpink & Selena Gomez - Ice Cream
I've never been into K-pop, though I've actually liked some of Blackpink's collaborations with the likes of Lady Gaga and Dua Lipa. This one, however, had a beat that literally gave me a headache. Couple it up with one of my most hated singers of recent years - Selena Gomez - and this one was bound to be hated by me.
Ariana Grande - Positions
Well, come on! Venti and her overexposed ponytail were bound to make the list somewhere... but this one, which sounds like every other uninspired piece of trap garbage lately, was awful but not quite bad enough for the top 10 worst! Another of her songs wasn't so fortunate...
Justin Bieber feat. Quavo - Intentions
Actually, I should put the entire "Changes" album here, because absolutely everything I've heard from that album has been just annoying trap garbage. This one gets the mention here as it was a huge hit, plus it has a "featuring Quavo" which is an absolutely cancer to me as I've hated EVERYTHING that annoying mumble rapper has been on. But this wasn't his worst of 2020!
Jawsh 685 & Jason Derulo - Savage Love
You know when a song goes viral on TikTok, if it isn't a classic like "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac, I'm bound to hate it. I've liked several Jason Derulo songs before, but this one just has a bland beat and goes absolutely nowhere for me. The only saving grace? It's not a grossout anthem like "Wiggle" or "Swalla" was, so unlike those two, this misses my top 10 worst of the year.
Maroon 5 - Memories / Nobody's Love
Ok, so I've hated Maroon 5 for several years now, ever since Adam Levine became a basic boy around 2016 and started doing generic crap the same as every other pop artist was doing. However, the "Red Pill Blues" era, while crap, still had his distinct voice from his past songs. But these ones? What happened to his voice? Not only are these basicfests, they're also OFF KEY ANTHEMS! He needs to either take singing lesons or retire from music forever - and since I feel he's completely lost it, preferably the latter.
Bebe Rexha feat. Doja Cat - Baby, I'm Jealous
Reptar's been normally crap for me, due to her annoying voice, though there were a few songs I could tolerate from her. And Doja Cat, while I do like Say So... it is literally the only song I've heard from her that is even remotely tolerable. Put them together and you get something I'm bound to hate... but I haven't heard it enough to make it into my top 10 worst!
Pop Evil - Work
These guys used to be your run of the mill rock and rool band, and I actually didn't mind a few of their songs... and then came... THIS. Seriously... why the hell do these bands insist on going trap/EDM mess or whatever the hell this is? You need some work to get back to somewhat decent music again! More on this later with another such band...
Demi Lovato - I Love Me / I'm Ready
She's become so inconsistent lately... at least ever since "Sorry Not Sorry", which was an annoying screamfest. She seemed to apply the same formula on "I Love Me", which really irritated me and resulted in one of my worst of the year - and she continued on an annoying collaboration with Sam Smith, "I'm Ready" a.k.a. her screamfest version of "Stay With Me". Alas, neither made my top 10 worst, but she does have a few appearances in my top 100 best!
Saint Jhn - Roses
What's worse than a basicfest? How about a mumblefest? I can't make out a single word in this song - at least in the version that became a hit. Just stop mumbling... oh wait, there's a reason why this artist will be a one hit wonder.
Halsey - Experiment On Me
I remember this got played on the Book Club. While I actually have liked some of her 2020 output surprisingly, this was just an annoying mess, and while not as bad as "Now Or Never" or "Without Me", was still awful... but missed due to being forgettable.
Trevor Daniel - Falling
Arizona Zervas - Roxanne
I'm putting these two together because I can't tell the difference. Just stop with the f***ing trap garbage anyway, and these people just CAN'T SING either! Stop making my ears bleed already!
Billie Eilish - Anything she released in 2020
To date, I have liked absolutely NOTHING from Eyelash. 2020 kept on her 0% hit rate for me, with her annoying whisper singing and songs that go absolutely nowhere.
Roddy Ricch - The Box
The only reason why this missed my top 10 is that I forgot how it sounded. I remember it being absolutely unlistenable though.
And, now for the top (bottom?) 10:
10. Tones And I - Ur So F***ing Cool
Well, come on! I remember I hated "Dance Monkey" so much in 2019, that it was one of my most hated songs of the year. The main reason? Her voice is one of the most nauseating I've ever heard. And this one? Just f***ing desperation! Trying way too hard to be edgy and "cool"... but all she sounds is desperate! Here she makes it a second straight year in my 10 worst.
9. JP Saxe feat. Julia Michaels - If The World Was Ending
Absolutely unremarkable.... this just goes nowhere. Plus, again, as is a trend with so many artists these days... JP Suxe just can't sing and just warbles me to sleep! If the world was ending, this would be the last song I'd choose for the soundtrack for it... as it would make me wish for the end of the world! Plus, this just would not go away, and the memes (it inspired the M4BCC Radio Top 40's "joke news" site, jpsaxefansunite.com) became legendary... all because of the hate for this song.
8. Camila Cabello feat. DaBaby - My Oh My
You thought you'd escape her? Think again! The herpes queen strikes again, for how many years in a row now? 5? 6? This seemed to be a cheap attempt to replicate the success of "Havana", and as with everything else she's done... her awful voice ruins any redeeming qualities this might have had. Now excuse me, after hearing this I need to get tested for herpes.
7. Megan Thee Stallion feat. Beyoncé - Savage
Ugh, I can't stress how much I cannot stand Mehgan The Staleion! I've hated her ever since "Hot Girl Summer" in 2019, and her shitfests continued in 2020 with this! Add a singer who I used to like but has since become just another mumble rapper, Beyoncé, and this became even worse! Mehgan The Staleion is just so awful that she is the only artist that has TWO songs in my top 10 worst - to compare, the likes of Tonedeaf, JP Suxe, Cabelno, Drake, Venti, Bieber and Rainbow Boy each only got one.
6. Theory Of A Deadman - Strangers
Speaking of former rock and rool bands gone bad... what the hell is up with this? I know Theory (of a Deadman) has gone downhill over the past few years as I haven't liked anything of theirs in years, but what possessed them to go trap/EDM with an annoying random rapper? This is just a sonic mess that reminds me of Fall Out Boy's "Young And Mehnace", which was just another formerly great rock band gone noisy trap/EDM garbage.
5. Drake - Toosie Slide
I can rant all day about TikTok meme "songs"... and honestly? Drake's been plain awful for many years now. He did have a few more melodic songs that he sang instead of rapped in the early 2010's, but lately he's just been doing annoying mumble crap. Plus, what the f*** does "Toosie Slide" even mean? This could very well be the worst song that Drake has ever done - and given how much crap he's had, that says a lot!
4. Ariana Grande - 34+35
Um, Venti... how obvious can you be? If you know math at all, you know the title adds up to 69... but instead of being subtle, she just flat-out admits the subject matter! I mean, "can you stay up all night, f*** me til the daylight"... how obvious do you get? More annoying crap from the ponytail, and honestly? I think this might be the worst song she's done so far! But given how Venti has been doing uninspired, annoying crap lately and shoves everything in our faces with her constant releases, I wouldn't count her out to do something worse in the future!
3. 6ix9ine feat. Nicki Minaj - Trollz
I could rant all day here, honestly. I seriously don't understand why this f***ing pedophile even has a career in the first place, he is a disgusting monster. And people actually willingly listen to this crap? Anyone convicted of such hideous crimes doesn't deserve to have a music career... he should just stay in jail forever, he's a danger to society! I can't believe he's actually REWARDED for this gross behaviour with hit records... what the hell has pop culture come to? This is just unlistenable crap, but the fact that rainbow boy is such a f***ing creep makes it even worse... though I still found 2 worse songs than this!
2. Justin Bieber - Yummy
You just knew this HAD to make it! "You got that yummy yummy yummy".... what kind of baby wrote those lyrics? And who told Bieber this was a good idea? And how the hell did this get Grammy nominations? Not to mention, it's, you guessed it... more annoying trap garbage! This just proves that Beliebers will eat up even the worst crap he could come up with - he could fart over an annoying beat and it would still become a hit! Sure he did redeem himself later in the year with a few songs I actually found decent... but that doesn't excuse this crime against music! But if this wasn't my worst of the year... what was?
1. Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion - WAP
Come on, wasn't this obvious? If there was any song that you could've guessed would make my worst list... it truly had to be this! A song about "wet ass pussy"... how gross can you get? And some have said that this is a feminist anthem... seriously? It's degrading as hell! They basically took a page out of Fuglie's playbook from "MILF $" and made another degrading slutfest. Annoying voices, an annoying beat, gross lyrics... it all comes together for my most hated song of the year. Seriously... just re-reading the lyrics to this has made me lose way too many brain cells that I'm about to become as stupid as this song.
2020 was a year full of awful songs, and many of them sadly became hits. Some were worse than others though, and that's where lists like this come in.
