Top Ten Worst Hit Songs of 2018
#SpectrumPulse #Top10 #WorstSongsOf2018
That Halsey thing was so fucking weird
Todd in the Shadows HOLY SHET
Damn. Didn’t expect to find you in the comments here.
I can't imagine what that's like, to actually have one of those musicians actually respond to your criticisms.
Like... you'd assume that these people are too busy being famous and shit to care what random faceless people online have to say about them.
Heh... faceless...
how is this not the top comment?
"Takeoff buying his own coffin early"
Oooof that did not age well
As a Puerto Rican, I can say to you:
There's a lot of latinos who hate these lazy, overplayed reggaeton songs. Feel free to keep adding them to your lists.
It's astonishing to me how the music industry somehow managed to completely, totally and UTTERLY dodge the Me Too movement.
Thank God
@@cloudstrife7566 Generally when people try to dismiss the MeToo movement, they fall into 2 main categories, with a few smaller ones (I won't talk about them)1st are people who believe the MeToo movement has been hijacked by the far-left and has been corrupted from it's original intent, which was outing actual predators and giving a voice to people who have been abused by those in power. The second and larger group are generally hateful pricks who think that people like Weinstein or Cosby did nothing wrong, the women in question brought it on themselves or deserved it etcv etc.
So when someone posts a statement like you did with no explanation... what group do you think a lot of people are going to lump you into?
@@Ashannon888 So one of the smaller groups would be those who believe in innocence until proven guilty? Lumping people who disagree with you into majority opinions without knowing why they disagree with you looks bad for any movement.
@@Ashannon888 can't wait for the effects of the metoo movement to take place into the real world. Things like an increase in false rape accusations ruining men's lives permanently sounds like a great thing!
1. The assumption that false rape accusations are a bigger threat to people than _actual rape_ is a very dangerous one
2. Famous people with money and power can dodge the backlash of rape and abuse accusations even if they turned out to be true
3. The movement is obviously not about trying to encourage false rape accusations; in fact most self-respecting feminists (like me) are disgusted that it happens at all, because it discredits the testimony of actual victims and gives credence to the “(insert famous scumbag here) did nothing wrong, she was lying” crowd- I personally think that false accusers should be punished, but _only_ if there is *incontrovertible and decisive proof that it was an act of slander,* because the last thing I want is to discourage actual rape victims from reporting what is already a shockingly underreported crime (mostly because of the culture of victim-blaming we have that really needs to change first)
"We don't want her either"
I lost it hahaha
ARTV same 😂👌
2002 has been inescapable here in the UK, whenever a store is playing it I instantly walk out.
She needs to move to paris and live with Hope Morphin
@@RichardBatchelorComposer Wait 2002 or 2018?
@@SuperFlashDriver The song "2002".
Freaky Friday is honestly a song that gets worse and worse the more you think about it. I use to think it was funny but I started thinking about it more and eventually I wanted to hit Lil Dicky with a frying pan.
jkingisbeast and to think Rap Critic have it a 5/5
@@jk844100 I'll be honest, I don't hate it as much as Mark and I could see why Rap Critic liked it. He did a review of Lil Dicky's album with Mues and thought it was decent, but it comes down to whether you thought it was funny.
jkingisbeast I see it the same way as Todd in The Shadows. It’s just a song about how awesome it is to be Chris Brown despite all the awful shit he’s done over the last 10 years or so.
@@jk844100 Honestly, I could've looked past that is during the first verse they made a couple of jokes about those like lil dicky trying to call one of the women that has a restraining order on him and them telling him to pick off or something of that nature but I do agree the same.
At least something like I Love It was funny ironically and it gave me a good laugh. Freaky Friday isn't even enjoyable ironically. It's just unfunny and stupid, but the thing that really kills it for me is the end where he talks about playing with Kendal Jenner's vagina.
And what kind of name is Lil Dicky?
THIS MAN JUST SAID “SOUNDCLOUD WAIFU”.

Thats controversial?
Jay Romeo xxxtentacion
Hopefully soon
Tejas Kalyan why are you here please go back to testee
Tejas Kalyan “There is nothing wrong with misogyny” remind me why we’re supposed to take you seriously
I thought Girls Like You would be on this list. Guess it’s way too lifeless to be in here LOL.
Perfect candidate for Todd though
@@fuckingloser2817 Was on my worst list.
@@fuckingloser2817 You were right about that. It was #1 on Todd's worst list.
@@thema1998 I believe I made that comment after he revealed his #1, so I can't say I called anything.
@@fuckingloser2817 I never said that you *called* it. I said, "You were right about that."
"With the amount of emo rappers that have died in the past couple of years"
Well this comment certainly has more weight to it now with Juice Wrld himself dead.
Remember when we all thought that 2016 was the worst year ever for music? Feels like a lifetime ago.
@@quentinbringthenumetalchil5125 Mainstream music had been in a very bad place in the 2010s. I seriously wonder how it will be like in the 2020s.
I miss Pitbull. He may have been dumb a lot of the time, but at least he was enjoyably dumb and had charisma. Fuck it, I miss 2008-2013 EDM music because those actually had flair to them. Even when songs were the worst in those years, there was actually something interesting to say about them, not just this indifference to everything.
Krist Stevens listen to that pitbull song on the aquaman soundtrack, maybe it will help you miss him less
@@TheMiels I did, and yeah. I wasn't quite a big fan of it (I liked Aquaman though). oh well, there's always next year (for better or for worse).
Krist Stevens exactly!
2018: the year of self-deprecation at its absolute worst.
2018 was bad but i would argue that the year end list is not that bad
@@LK-tk2gl The Year-End list isn't good either. Most of the songs on it suck.
Yep it surely was
Except for great metal albums
More like a year that's bad and knows it but won't do anything about it.
Before viewing: I'm predicting Meant To Be will be in the top 5
During viewing: ... WHAT?!
After viewing: Okay... seeing your top 5, I can see why, even if I disagree
The Social Tune Meant to Be is the 10th worse
It is not even a bad song. It is above average. It is just overplayed, just like Despacito. People usually whine also about Taylor Swift in USA.
*insert that one Pikachu meme here*
Woah.
Todd and Mark release their year-end reviews on the same day?
It MUST be Christmastime!
:D
spoilers for a list entry:
man, nonstop sounds really funny speed up
The bass in all these songs are ruined when sped up (not that the songs were good to begin with).
Still would take it sped up... at least it sounds funny instead of awful(it still is but u get what i mean)
Unfortunately the copyright must have gotten so bad that now Mark of all channels has to resort to speeding up the songs during their introductions for the video to stay up
Hey mark I just want to say thank you for all the work you do i truly enjoy your content, and while i'm not in a financial position to support you on patreon I try not to skip the ads on your videos! Keep up the good work. There's not enough good music critics on youtube.
Me when you and Todd post your worst lists on the same day: :0
8:00 aged really poorly...
8:00 oh…
Changes is easily one of the worst song of the year. X's fans were saying that his music was so deep and relatable, but that song was the most basic shit I've ever heard. People who enjoy XXXTentacion really need to listen to better music.
Chantasia Manuel idk that’s pretty pretentious to assume that everyone who doesn’t enjoy your taste listens to bad music.
You mean like the idiots who compare him to Tupac or call him a legend? Couldn't agree more.
I like some of x’s stuff from his soundcloud days and even some of his newer stuff but wow changes was a lifeless bore
he's a sadboy meme rapper so his fanbase is full of lowest common denominator "emos" thinking X is a god above men.
Chantasia Manuel lmao
I think trap & pop music of 2018 is a total ‘No Brainer’
That comment about Juice Wrld’s staying power because all the other emo rappers “keep dying” ...yeah that didn’t age well
Every year, you bring the heat to these lists. My only disagreement is Let You Down, but I get it. Great video, Mark. Can’t wait for the other lists.
I don't get people's hate for "meant to be", just because it was overplayed doesn't mean it is bad
Lucas Dias the lyrics are ass and i don't think i can take bebe rexha's voice anymore
@@lucasdias2582 "Meant To Be" is not bad because it was overplayed. It's bad because it was a mess. 👎
Lucas Dias I agree about the overplayed statement. I hate when people say they hate a song for that reason. Reasons to say a song is bad are things we can blame the artists, writer, or producer for. And it’s none of those people’s faults a song gets played into oblivion. Heck, sometimes overplay can help me appreciate a song a little more
B-HOP I actually disagree with FRIENDS in this list. It’s not perfect but it’s also not terrible. It’s just an EDM/Pop song that I nonetheless find enjoyable. That said though, Better is the better song out of the two charting songs that Marshmello released this year.
I’d replace FRIENDS with Girls Like You by Maroon 5 though. Now that song is horribly mediocre.
At least brendan urie is a decently good and charasmatic artist
Agreed
@Valntyne x you wanna fight?
@Valntyne x Im gonna fight you, see you in 5
lol I disagree but opinion respected
For me 2018 was a worse year for the Hot 100 than 2016 because at least we didn't have hits and popular artists as "morally reprehensible" as Diamond Axe Studios channel described as this year's. I would say Anne-Marie is like Natasha Bedingfield with even less personality. I'm surprised A Dose of Buckley didn't have your #1 pick in his list.
Hate panic at this disco all ya want, but at least thanks to them we got probably the most upbeat song of 2018
And then Hey Look Ma, I Made It happened. So that's cool.
I like P!ATD
I have things I like and dislike of all phases of this bands career
Upbeat doesn’t mean good. Pray For The Wicked had its moments, but a lot of generic ones as well.
Pretty understandable with your picks. A lot of boring and bland songs this year as well.
Safe to say, the music industry is in a bad state.
The industry pushes whatever is popular. People's taste in music is detereorating. The charts are just an expression of it,
Hot 100. As a whole this was a good year for music.
jack harrington same I ignored it as much as possible glad I did yikes! 😐
Ally Brooke is coming to save music along with Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui, and Normani
Check out I Dont Mind by Dinah Jane
jack harrington have you try finding underground artists? They’re better than today’s mainstream
State of Hot 100 in 2018: Rather dicey. Annual "Worst Songs" lists: Extra spicy.
Are these two phenomena correlated? Quite possibly.
Cathartic? Yes.
Hotel? Trivago.
@@quentinbringthenumetalchil5125 I'm not denying 2018 was a rough year for the Hot 100 (a lot more mediocre than other years this decade), but the general negative sentiment for this year has been quite overblown. It certainly wasn't as bad as 2016, as we weren't left as starved of good songs as that year if we're going by the YE Hot 100. Plus, the phrase I used fit the rhyme scheme of the first line better.
Not a Post Malone fan by any means but just for your info: 'I Fall Apart' was kind of written as a joke. It's about a 'girlfriend' he had for one day when he was 8 years old so I personally just view it as self-satire. I know there's no way to know that via the song itself but it's a fun fact nonetheless.
Just Louis Still doesn't excuse how the song's mixed like shit
Just Louis Honestly, that makes the moshing frat bros worse.
I personally don't really have a top 10, but some of my least favourite "hits" from this year were:
"Meant to Be", "Him & I", "I Like It", "The Middle", "Lucid Dreams", "Friends", "Bad at Love", "Wait" and "FEFE".
2018 in review: The Year of Trap and Emo Rap. Seriously, hip hop fans must be loving how relevant and widespread hip hop/rap is.2018 Year where Pop reaches the bottom of relevancy. The Year where K-Pop began baby steps on the chart.The Year where Country Pop and Reggaeton started making dangerous strides towards the top of the charts. The Year where Justin Timberlake involuntarily ended his career
Not the dumpster fire that was 2016, but honestly, this year for the most part was mediocore for the Hot 100. Not many charting songs truly stood out for either great or being good awful. A lot of them were either passable, meh or complete drivel.
I don't expect 2019 to be any better.
Well... at least that EDM song with AJR and Lil Yachty didn't make the charts...
I'm not kidding...
That sounds horrid
Thats sad
That exists?
There goes my sleep tonight
And yet, it STILL gets airplay at my store... REGULARLY. TO THIS DAY.
I personally don't mind AJR or Lil Yachty. LY isn't great, but he has a fun charm to him, and his bizarre voice is endearing. And I absolutely love AJR. I legitimately cannot understand why anybody would hate them.
Also, I heard that song. It's not that bad.
I think it’s sad, yet hilarious, that so many of the comments based on Juice Wrld aged so horribly.
So... does Sad by XXXTentacion just not exist?
@Billboardguy1 It honestly would bother me as much if so many impressionable kids didnt take X's word as gospel
@Billboardguy1 I've said this before but I dont hate Xs music because of who he is as a person, I actually respect him as an auteur, but I'm gonna call shitty music as I see it regardless of who made it.
And trust me, I get that everyone's sick of bashing on Sad, literally everyone put it on their worst lists and people are burned out, I totally get that.
9:05 The double meaning of this sentiment is chilling.
Especially now.
Good list well terrible list I guess lol. Other awful songs of 2018.
Supplies- Timberlake
Filthy- Timberlake
Money- Cardi B
Accelerate- CAguilera ft Ty Dolla Sign
Best life- Lil Duval
Taki Taki- Dj Snake & Friends
Mo Bamba- Shek Wes
ZeZe- Kodak
GTFO- Mariah Carey
And so many more just throw the whole year away
Christina Auguelra is still a thing?
I thought the Lil Duval song was great but I respect your opinion.
Zeze was good
Zeze is good if u just stop listening to it after offset's verse
Girls Like YOU. By Maroon 5.
10 - Halsey was a guilty pleasure music-wise for me. But good lord this year, like most pop artists this year her works were TERRIBLE . Do yourself a favor folks and listen to Postmodern Jukebox's cover of Bad at Love.
9 and 8 - Drake is a garbage artist. That Pusha T diss track this year was a godsend. And why the hell would people willingly subject themselves to Florida Georgia Line.
7 - I don't think I've heard of this guy before? Those are some drama-llamas.
6 - HOO BOY. Another guilty pleasure. It's awful garbage though. Such a good song to laugh at though imo. If you have a bad day, listen to this and remember: you aren't Anne Marie, friends. XD
5 - What the fresh hell is this screeching reggae techno nightmare? Why does it exist?
4 - I'd rather see what he's like when he's angry.
3 - JEEZ. Idk why you would want to see him live, but if it was for the sake of reviewing. I have nothing but props.
2 - This is a musical representation of a train wreck.
1 - DRAG THEM. This song is absolute fucking garbage, and so is Chris Brown. And anyone else involved in this monstrosity.
Wow this video was one of the angriest videos you have ever made. I love it
Yeah. Knew Freaky Friday would make number 1. I thought Sad! might have made the list though
Great list. Merry Christmas Mark.
He did say Changes was worse for a reason.
I don’t think Sad was that bad of a song! Changes was mediocre but sad has a preety uplifting beat. The lyrics are better than most songs. I won’t rewrite history but if there is one thing I know, is that he tried to change. Changes is his only bad song but every other song is either ok to just amazing! I’m not saying this because he died. I’m saying this because he is a good artist with a troubling past. RIP X :(.
I also have to say, Freaky Friday was a good song with a weird message. Most of the reason he used for the song being bad was the mediocrity of the lyrics. I have to say they are preety awful but it at least conveys a story. The beat and everything else is preety good.
A Little Yellow Frog People’s perspectives of the word uplifting can be different.
The combination of yourself, Jon (from ARTV) and Fantano make a trifecta of great year-end lists. Great vid
Freaky Friday for #1
Mine:
1. GUMMO - 6ix9ine
2. Te Boté - Nio Garcia, Casper Magico, Bad Bunny, Darell, Ozuna, Nicky Jam
3. changes - XXXTENTACION
4. Yes Indeed - Lil Baby, Drake
5. Wait - Maroon 5
6. Girls Like You - Maroon 5 ft Cardi B
7. SAD! - XXXTENTACION
8. I'm Upset - Drake
9. FRIENDS - Marshmello, Anne-Marie
10. Nonstop - Drake
(Dis)honourable mentions:
- Gucci Gang - Lil Pump
- No Brainer - DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance The Rapper
- Be careful - Cardi B
- Love Lies - Khalid with Normani
- Walk it talk it - Migos, Drake
Whatever Agreed except for Nonstop
9:03 That didn't age well...
@Ddhfacetyy And HE'S not talking about the criticism of the music, but specifically referencing JUICE's staying power because of all the dying emo rappers
@Raven Balcom It’s aged fine
@@DocDevious23 Stop lying, he clearly is
Don't mean to sound like a fanboy here who would kowtow to white rappers and defending them, sounding like someone who doesn't know what real hip-hop sounds like, but hear me out, I'm an NF fan and you got the concept of "Let You Down" wrong.
He is not talking about his father in the song, he's referring to himself, how he let himself down as NF considers himself a perfectionist and he couldn't live up to his expectations.
And I know you got an aversion to high pitched or chipmunk vocals, but the high pitched voice is meant to represent his younger self, talking to himself, how he let himself down.
The music video is even more apparent as there is a male figure who is presumably NF's father watching NF drowning but it culminated to a lady calling the male figure "Nathan", which is NF's real name.
He is watching himself drowning.
He is not just a white rapper with tight flows with nothing to say.
He's gone through a lot of shit from being abused as a child and his mother dying from drug overdose and he talks about his hardships in his songs.
But hey, I am a fan of your channel and I sound like a total fanboy here but I believe I stated my point.
chief I listened to Perception and I'd rather split my scrotum with a golf club than do it again
I like Freaky Friday, but I will admit that the Kendall Jenner bit is unnecessary and entirely unfunny.
Well my Christmas gift came Early! :)
Thank you all for these likes! I truly appreciate this community :)
Alright, that was the list. Perhaps the biggest disagreement I had was with Let You Down. However, I find it interesting that for the 2nd year in a row, my top 2 was the exact same as yours. I'm looking forward to your Best List...
10:39 She tried to deflect it as WHAT?! A couple of days ago she went after Todd by going through each ex in the song and explain the toxicity and destruction in each of them. She also seriously tried defending it as playful self-deprecation? WTF?! That's two entirely different tones ,and she fails on both of them! I get she's being defensive, but you can't have it both ways Halsey.
Anyways, *FANTASTIC* video and early Christmas present, Mark. Can't wait for all of the Best of lists. I'm also curious about what you meant on the side effects of pop at 1:28
I think upon reflection... Todd really balked right there. He really buckled down, because thinking about it now, he could've gotten back with the argument that intent isn't the same as result.
Reggeton has no redeeming qualities and it gets even worse if you actually heard the lyrics.
Ooh maybe listen to Con Calma cause to me it’s pretty fun & crazy amounts of catchy
@@RubixCube-nq4wi Daddy yankee is good
One of the most excruciating things I've seen this year is two white girls singing and rapping every single word of Freaky Friday because they knew it would annoy then mother who is a massive prude. If that's not the perfect representation of the songs audience I don't know what is.
My personal philosophy is that it's OK to like things (movies, video games, music, w/e), but in the case of 'Freaky Friday' I draw the hardest of lines. I hope those young ladies look back on them liking that song and feel the deepest of shame.
@@gracecarpinter8623 I know that I feel shame. I used to like "Freaky Friday" when it came out.
Well i liked the beat on it
@@gracecarpinter8623 What if they like it on a musical aspect, like enjoy how the song sounds
@@thema1998 I thought it was funny when I first watched it not in the "HAHA LOL XD" funny but the "WOW he's so stupid he actually said that XD" and that humor fades real quick.
I'm so glad you put Him & I in the HM instead of higher. I'm so happy that you don't have the reasons to hate it that I have. Nobody deserves to see that. Ew. Just... ew.
...also what were you doing in a Post Malone concert? I mean, props for making it out alive, but who did you kill?
You literally have a Black eyed peas profile pic🤣😂
That’s not hypocritical. I recall no cringy Bonnie&Clyde/Jekyll&Hyde reference in no BEP song.
I assume this is what happened.
“You know what we’re gonna do? I have coolest idea. We have to convey that our relationship is tormented and what a complicated bad boy I am. Girl like bad boys, don’t they? So hear me out. I have been enlightened. Why don’t we... compare our love to Bonnie & Clyde?”
“BRILLIANT! And hear this. Since you’re a tormented bad boy that needs the care of a girl like me to learn how to love... it’s never been done before, I swear: compare yourself to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde!”
“Yes! I am so original. And tormented and bad!”
I hate that song with passion. I knew The Beautiful And Damned was gonna hurt... well, since I read the title, but this song was the proof I needed.
You know its a bad year when Lights Down Low, Girls Like You and Never Be the Same dont even get a dishonorable mention. I look forward to the Best list.
I think he liked Lights Down Low enough to be a Best Song of the Week when it debuted.
@@crazyluigi6664 It was only a hit because radio wouldn't stop playing it. It got old very fast.
There wont be a best list.
@@elliegoo2946 The Best list came out a couple of days ago.
@@michaeladkins6 oh. Lol
I’m sorry for Anne Marie 😔
As a somewhat friend of yours from the UK, please don’t disown me
America apologizes for 6ix9ine
When you gotta speed up the music clips not to get flagged lol, love the list bro
You were right on the money with the “Juice WRLD fans being faintly embarrassed of this in two years” point. That happened to me beat-for-beat; I got into his music in 2018, drifted from it as I discovered more music and came into my own as a listener, and was somewhat embarrassed of my emo-trap phase by 2020. Kinda funny looking back at it in 2022 when my music taste is exponentially more diverse.
The music video of Fefe by 6ix9ine is pretty disturbing(in my opinion) The song on it's own is horrible but the video just makes it 10 times worse.
Also, for what it's worth, in regards to #7, don't worry about being 'controversial.' That song has ended up on SEVERAL worst lists already. The critics of TH-cam have shown little to no mercy regarding the artist in question.
Even then, this is the song that does deserve that kind of wrath more than Sad. I mean, it's like Mark said in the week he covered it, at least Sad sounded like a finished song.
@Billboardguy1 I would've been more surprised if Todd did mention X since I think everyone knows that Todd would've said some stupid shit and botched literally everything.
I agree with everything except Let You Down.
Yeah I strongly disagree with having Let You Down on this list
I mostly agree with the list except was surprised at how low some songs were. I was certain "Meant to be" was going to be top 5 and "Lucid Dreams" would be in the top ten. I think the year's worst music was typified by laziness in that some seem to think drum machines, a bit of trap and hollow lyrics were good enough and in some cases the public lapped it up. Wish it'd stop
Well that was both unsurprising and thoroughly cathartic. Can't imagine what'll make the best list this year since pretty much all charting music was on a scale from boring to godawful
no GUMMO and SAD interesting
In the case of Sad, he did say Changes was worse for a reason. Still a bit surprised with no Gummo, but Fefe more than makes up for it, if you asked me.
gummo is a good song but sad should have been here
@@LK-tk2gl Honestly, I'd say reverse the order here. Sad I'm glad isn't on here, but Gummo should have been at least a dishonorable mention.
Roman dererste I think Gummo is worse than Fefe, though I hate them both. Sad admittedly kinda grew on me, still don’t like it tho.
@@LK-tk2gl Are you serious? "Gummo" is a terrible song.
10:34 was that a Todd in the Shadows reference? lol
After watching his review of Without Me, it probably was.
Freaky Friday probably sums up my hatred for the music industry
I'm Upset - ghostwritten by RiceGum
Thank you for including Te Boté 😁
Don't worry about putting Te Bote on the list, that song is terrible
Mark, i truly stan your work and everything you do! We agree in nearly every way and i’m so happy for your directness. As an aspiring songwriter, your thoughts on music and effective artistry means a lot. I’d love to see a “what makes a project a perfect ten” video, just to pick your brain further! Anyways, thank you for another great year! xx
I *knew* that was going to be your #1. It definitely captures what was at the heart of 2018 in every way.
You left Sad off the list? Huh.
Well, he did say Changes was worse by comparison.
Every year I think mainstream music cannot get any shittier and every year I am proven wrong but I think trap/reggaeton on mainstream radio are going to be hard to beat.
I'm a simple man. I see this critic, I click.
Yearlististhony Endtano
*send*
...oh, sorry wrong channel.
This makes the fifth list I've seen without Gummo and Sad! on the list.
I wonder what the others were for you?
gummy is a good song but sad should have been on here
@@crazyluigi6664 Radical Douche, Ducky, Buckley and TiTS. That actually makes this video the fifth, so I'll edit that.
@@LK-tk2gl 6ix9ine to me is like the Hinder of rap. He's fine when making songs like Gummo or Kooda, but when he lowers his voice for something like Gotti or FEFE, he's one of the worst things I ever heard.
@Yoshifan9511 I know about that, and although it deserved its spot on his list, I'd say he wasn't hard enough on them for that song.
9:04 well....
23:43 Your story about your expierence seeing Post Malone live left me dying! 😆😆😆
and to just set the record straight Halsey did release Strangers as the final single off of Hopeless Fountain Kingdom it just didn't re enter the charts (feel free to double check if you don't believe me she released a music video for it and everything)
Lil Dicky's fantasy about Kendall Jenner is a lot like the Armitages from Get Out.
2018: it wasn't the worst year of the decade in terms of hits, but boy, did it test my patience.
DHM1: The song sounds like it had as much effort put into it as the ringtone rap from the 2000s.
Loved the jab at Marshmello, that one made me laugh.
DHM2: Fuck you, Maroon 5. You suck.
DHM3: I can't understand its existence and I always keep a straight face whenever it comes on.
DHM4: This one will be a dishonorable mention on my list purely because of overplay.
DHM5: It sounds like a combination of Eminem's early 2010s stuff with Linkin Park's Numb.... but sloppily executed.
DHM6: That chorus is in my top 10 worst of all time.
DHM7: You can tell he wrote it after his first break-up. "I know that you want me dead" is still an uncomfortable line for me.
10: I wanted to put this on my worst list, I really did. But I guess you could say it didn't bother me enough.
Also LOL, Mark referenced Halsey replying to ToddInTheShadows's comments regarding the song.
9: Why is Toronto called the 6? Also, Nonstop might be one of the reasons why I tried to avoid that gigantic album bomb that happened the week Scorpion impacted the Hot 100.
8: Did anybody put any effort into this?
7: My #3 pick for my worst list, for its combination of incompetence, amaterurism and poor framing.
6: Dunno what I hate more: Anne Marie not knowing what she wants to get across, Marshmello making poor production choices or the lyrics, which are about the friendzone.
5: It's a good thing that the song is called Te Bote, cause I want to throw it in the trash. (No, I don't speak Spanish, I just understand a few words)
4: "Hey girls who spent their years dancing to 'Nice For What' and 'In My Feelings', this is how Drake really feels about you - just keep that in mind." Yeah, I am aware of that. Haven't seen Drake as a nice guy since Hotline Bling.
3: When Mark mentioned it last year, I was like "It's probably gonna make the 2018 Year-End, you should save your thoughts for then."
There were pits while he was performing this live? What, was the crowd on drugs or something?
It shows that he wrote it as a teen. And his vocals are obviously crap.
I forgot to add a thing about rockstar, tho: In hindsight, I find it funny that Mark said Post Malone wasn't worth licking the boots of legit rockstars. Why? Because he ended up hanging out with /meeting a few rock musicians this year.
2: 6ix9ine proclaiming himself to be the king of New York made me wish the city was infested with rats.
1: I was somewhat expecting it to be #1. Didn't want to be Chris Brown before he beat up Rihanna, I sure as hell don't want to be him now.
voltorb plushie = best plushie.
I can see why you didn't include lucid dreams on the worst list cause it's not degrading to a point of obnoxiously unlisted.
Great list as always mark
"we don't deserve these Trash hit songs either".
2018 was so great year for underrated songs. Hope the mainstream on hip-hop shit would fade away
#10 entry, and he's already dropped an indirect "At least with AJR-"
Those of you saw his review of The Click should know how telling that is.
Even though THe Click is one of the best albums of all time.
@@jeremyusreevu237 with best you mean worst right?
The only song i disagree is Bad At Love, i like that song
The rest are trash
Thank you so much. Meant To Be gives me such a headache
Freaky Friday is a "special" song...
Freaky Friday number 1
While I disagree with it being on your list musically , changes really deserves to be on here purely based on its representation of the industry as a whole
My worst list:
1. Fefe
2. Freaky Friday
3. The light is coming
4. Never Be The Same
5. Te Bote
6. No Tears Left To Cry
7. Endgame
8. The Middle
9. I’m Upset
10. Meant to Be
HM:
- Changes
- X
- I fall apart
- Him & I
- God is a Woman
- I like it
Man I’ve been waiting for your list I was afraid you quit your TH-cam channel Mark so I’m extremely happy to see you’re still here. 😬😬😬
Let’s not pretend we didn’t see the number one coming
Honestly amazes me that so many people think Fefe is worse than Gummo. Gummo is actually unlistenable. Fefe has really catchy flows on the verses and the beat is pretty good. Predictably became his biggest hit.
Honestly, they're both shit songs. They just both happen to be shit for some completely different reasons.
@@crazyluigi6664 I hate the idea of Fefe more than the song itself. I hate the video, I hate the fact it was popular, I hate the fact Nicki Minaj is on it. But the song really doesn't sound that bad.
Great video Mark!Merry Christmas!🎁🎄
Im so excited for this!
Edit: "These two who seem to have more cocaine and passive agression than common sense" damn Mark is going off already
Oh and about "Te Boté", its pretty much a meme at this point, very little people listen to it unironically outside of edgy 11 year olds
How is Fall Apart still on the charts I didn't even realise
It's been gone for quite some time, though!
Made the year end charts which Mark uses for his lists.
@@AdamLeeNichols I mean because of how old the song is that it's surprising it's even there
love ur year end lists
"Given how many other lists this will make, which I assume is all of them..."
*smirk*
It’s strange that a lot of modern music is fine, but all of the “hit” songs suck.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Love the video man! You’re killin it out here
