so weird that this kind of stuff is now routinely major label/pop chart fodder. i guess Har Mar Superstar was ahead of his time?

53 48 YUNG L.A. FEATURING AIN'T I

hmmm

what is hmmm about that, it's on the radio every goddamn minute

no rap radio here, i really had no idea

i guess that's kinda where it is on itunes - idk im just surprised that it finally took off

yeah, it's been by far the biggest song on R&B radio with no singing on it for a few weeks now...really did very gradually hit well after the video dropped and everything

yeah i mean it's coming up on being almost a year old - i think the best that can come out of it is that it gets dro back in the mind of the public and facilitates his album

-- 94 LILY ALLEN THE FEAR

cool!

65 51 3OH!3 DON'T TRUST ME

i think this is fucking terrible in every which way (heard it today on the bus back from work site, but thankfully 'single ladies', 'my life would suck' and 'whatever you like' were on also, which we all sang along to), but i'm curious too see what a sarge thinks of it

eh i think it's alright, i kind of hate the idea of emo bands throwing stock synth lines into all their songs, but i can't deny that it works really well when the chorus opens up. it's basically just a teenpop song, and, like metro station, it would sound better if miley cyrus was singing it. to me it sounds like what clarkson/max martin etc trying to do with "my life would suck without you" except that song just seems so belabored to me, where as "don't trust me" is just some kids with one good idea (a chorus). i wasn't exactly pining for a fake metro station but this song turned out to be pretty decent, but it's not like i want a fake 3OH!3, or any more real 3OH!3 for that matter

― on some raggett bullshit, call him billy corgan (some dude)

it was also just used on america's best dance crew

xxxxpost

For me it's weird that "Ain't I" is gradually climbing the charts now because it was a rap radio staple here in NC like six months ago.

I'm kind of horrified to find myself liking the "I'm in Miami, Bitch" song. LOL frat electro

suggest ban

probably otm

tape store told me that the jesse mccartney song w/ ludacris is awesome and it totally is

lol video btw

jesse mccartney is very underrated. "it's over" is one of my favorite jams of 2008 (naturally i forgot to nominate it in the poll)

yeah. lex and i initially wrote off departure when it came out and we were discussing it on poptimists, mainly b/c mccartney has trouble selling himself as having convincingly transitioned from nsync-jt to nuJT or whatever, but the songwriting and the production hold up quite well. it's over is so much more massive than i remember it being.

i finally heard that 3OH!3 earlier this week and...i kind of dig it? do the helen keller and talk with your hips is just the right amount of tasteless for a band of their ilk. j0rdan otm, though. i have no desire to see/hear what they do NEXT.

yeah that's at least the 4th or 5th really quality jesse mccartney single, kid is consistent

xpost

I find myself completely incapable of giving a fuck about him.

"mainly b/c mccartney has trouble selling himself as having convincingly transitioned from nsync-jt to nuJT or whatever"

it's not the music, it's his face! frozen at 16 (hair is obv. a huge part of the problem).

so i guess the album's coming out now

boyfriend #2 is dope

HEARTLESS GO AWAY

17 14 ASHER ROTH I LOVE COLLEGE

o_0

i want 'mad' to be #1!! :(

when does his album come out? it's gonna jump into the top 10 whenever that happens

asher obv

at this point i am way less mad/anxious about "I Love College" blowing up than i am about "Day N Nite" blowing up. possibly because they don't play "College" on any stations i listen to.

i like "day n nite", at least it's not a total sellout. is it possible to sellout w/ your first single?

yeah i don't considering "selling out" a term applicable to thundercat blog rappers, it's just degrees of wackness and trend-chasing

"Day N Night" is one of the 5 best songs in the top 40.

as with charles hamilton i find the production infinitely more interesting than the rapping but cudi seems to be a waaay better rapper as well

Unlike Charles Hamilton he doesn't have a voice that makes me want to take a screwdriver to my ear. There's that, too.

haha yeah

flo-rida single that samples eiffel 65 has me str8 speechless, like truly no words

Okay, so I haven't been paying too much attention to radio or pop so far this year (which isn't too surprising for me). I'm curious to know what's come out that's worth listening to, so, could you merry popsters tell me the four or five songs that you think are a much-listen at this point in 2009? Anything blowing anyone's ears off?

keri hilson ft lil wayne - turnin me on
jamie foxx ft t pain - blame it
the-dream - rockin that thang
pink - sober
all american rejects - gives you hell

Cool, thanks. Keep the shortlists coming.

the last two are personal non-rap/r&b favorites but i can confidently say that everyone on the board who cares about such things endorses the first three songs whole heartedly

Def agree on Jordan's first three!

Also, Cunga: Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow
Electric Red - So Good
Ryan Leslie - Gibberish

Not sure if any of those are even singles, or if the first two are even released, all three are kickass.

Anyone else heard this Bite You track? (Ne-Yo, prod. Tricky Stewart)

those 3 are awesome— boom boom pow is gonna be the biggest song of the summer fwiw
