Rival Dealer made last year's list, didn't it?

also Popcaan - The System was released as a single in 2012

Bah. Year of impact (on me) rule?

Speaking of Year of Impact, would Lewis' L'amour count? I can see the case being made for "Romantic Times", but I'm not entirely sure about "L'amour" since it was making the rounds on some blogs a few years ago before being reissued this year Light in the Attic.

xp
I don't think it hurts anything to be on the nominations list. I meant it more as "it's unlikely this will get a lot of votes" in case you wanted to pick something else

TRACKS

Drake - 0 to 100 / The Catch Up
Schoolboy Q - Collard Greens
Röyskopp & Robyn - Do It Again
Ariana Grande - Problem

20/30

Tracks:

Far East Mention Mannequins - Fuck Boyz Get Money

22/30

Are those spreadsheets empty or is it just me?

The albums one should have stuff in it up to this morning.

Some track noms (15/30)

30 total, dude.

I wonder who, if any will nominate Magic! and/or Meghan Trainor.

It would be like the year we left off LMFAO.

Or "Anaconda". Or "Booty". The Year of the Ass deserves our critical attention.

Expect someone will nom Kalron; lRSE!, A Wlnged Vlctory for the Sullen, Have a Nlce Llfe, Ben Fro$t, and the Beyond the Black Ralnbow OST, but otherwise I can't think of anything else missed with a chance in albums.
