if there's one thing nicki doesn't suffer from in 2012 it's too many good songs

It's faded for me -- the space in the arrangements which sounded novel in June now sounds like a way to hide a couple unfinished songs -- but no so's it would leave my top twenty.

i haven't listened to it in a long time... i should revisit

i'll def have "stupid hoe" pretty high

Not trying to troll, b/c I know this is sacred around here, but has Armor On lost some of its luster for anyone else? (uh, asking for a friend...)

yeah it's cool but at this point i'm more interested in seeing what the new one does

nicki's best moments in 2012 hit the sweet spot of being great public pop AND great personal favourites that i ended up playing on loop - i could legit vote for "stupid hoe", "starships" (YES) and "the boys" if it wasn't for my one-track-per-artist rule

Gun Shot >>> everything else.

Not to make this a nicki thread but I remain upset that gunshot never became a huge summer single.

posted a photo on instagram tonight of him in the studio with beyonce

Huh, I assumed Dawn Richard was a British thing since the only place I've ever come across her name is the Singles Jukebox.

But it's been established that I don't know shit, so.

No, no, no. She's an American r&b singer who was in Diddy Dirty Money and Danity Kane. Sounds like this:

Oh I've heard her (b/c of the Jukebox), just didn't know her provenance.

Kaleidoscope Dream is prob going to be in my Top 3 at this point, maybe even be my number one - it's got like 5 of my favourite songs this year.

just couldn't get into the Dawn Richard record at all though. :/

where's this beyonce image?

i must look like such a psycho singing and clapping along to this album on headphones. hope my cats don't judge me.

Yell WHERE'S THE FUN IN FOREVER at it.

Beyonce is so sweet when she almost looks human.

it's kind of impossible to overstate how much this sounds like a year of the gentleman deep cut. i swear ne-yo is actually singing this

speaking of miggy and shaffer, anyone heard this before?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fIoz37nsac

yeah i heard and was really into the ne-yo version of that (production plumped up by tricky stewart supposedly) that leaked around the time of year of the gentleman - since that video predates it though i guess it was originally written for miguel and he took it back to play with and discard again. makes sense as it sounds very much like first album ne-yo

miguel has supposedly disowned this but it's not bad for what it is imo

now he's big he should get all his former west coast undie r&b homies like sa ra and j davey together and form a crew, crews are popular i hear

they could call themselves... black hippy

he used to run with those dudes?

fellow outcasts and weirdos

Miguel Jontel Pimentel was born 25 miles south of here, in the fishing port of San Pedro.

that kind of ruins my conception of him as this adorable twink. never been into really muscular guys.

he was in chicago last night but i was at kreayshawn =[

how is it even possible to be that wrong

ask the person who paid me to go see kreayshawn

tbf i actually didn't even realize that show was happening until i saw miguel post a photo of the bean on instagram and forgot to pitch it

I can't even

I'm hit with that body and sarge going to a Kreayshawn show. I need to lie down.

hmm, gotta concur with rev here

bomb hip dips tho

Do you like roooooooids
me too

am i going to regret removing "don't look back" and "pussy is mine" from my ipod?
