Rolling Worst Music of 2017

he's a complete fucking sociopath

guys just like him are partying in 9-bedroom mcmansions in the hamptons right now, phonebook thrown in the pool, peanut butter smeared on the wall, the quiet hum of undocumented cleaning crews picking up after them come sunday afternoon

but where were you when he documented meeting a kid with cancer?

I love chris isaak but this shit is fucked up

Did he even have anything to do with this, or is this a case of metadata shenanigans? He doesn't seem to be promoting it anywhere.

Anyway, here's the singer in question: https://www.instagram.com/davidsbaumanis/

(I also like that someone on his FB page posted a note to Agent Desmond.)

Some lad called Ron Jelly or something like that. The sooner I get these headphones fixed the better

Bastille - Basket Case

6 Music keep playing this for some reason.

reason : mercury prize entrant

has Castle on the Hill been mentioned? Ed Sheeran never fails to horrify:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qp5vcuMIlk

his voice, the production, it's all so terrible - but the lyrics are even worse! absolutely dreadful

That song played dozens of times at the place i worked at over the summer - i hated it so goddamn much and i'm so glad I don't have to be around that office radio anymore. Yeah, we get it ed, your friends in high school were burnouts. that doesn't make you any less of a cheeseball.

harry styles - sign of the times

i fully expect "castle on the hill" to be nominated for song of the year grammy

"Castle On The Hill" is not nearly the worst thing Sheeran's released this year

yeah it's going to get record/song of the year noms for sure unless the grammys just give up and give every song that hit number one in its nomination period (which ended yesterday) a nod

that list, btw, would be (in reverse chronological order)

bodak yellow
look what you made me do
despacito
i'm the one
that's what i like
humble
shape of you
bad and boujee
black beatles
starboy (woof) and
closer (WOOOFFFF)

despacito owned the charts huh

Last call to get some nominations in here for the worst song of 2017.
I'll likely run a poll in late December.

Is that one where Ed Sheeran keeps saying "I'm in love with your body" on here?

If not, that.

did Meghan Trainor sit this year out or something

crypto, reposting this for you

meghan trainor is on a talent show panel with diddy and dj khaled

she also put out a dumb smurfs tie-in song

Eminem - Walk On Water

That American Soul song U2 did on SNL this week should be in the mix.

"refujesus"

that smurfette track is very bad

lol, i forgot that trainor's debut album was 'title'

it's useful at least as a marker for showing why kelly clarkson's 'whole lotta woman' and kesha's 'woman' are really quite good

Katy Perry ft. Migos, “Bon Appetít”
Maroon 5 f. SZA, “What Lovers Do”
Look What You Made Me Do, Taylor Swift
Ed Sheeran, “New Man”
Louis Tomlinson, “Miss You”
Katy Perry, “Swish Swish”
Miley Cyrus, “Malibu”
Portugal. The Man, “Feel It Still”
Branchez & Big Wet, “Turn Up on the Weekend”
Chainsmokers f. Florida Georgia Line, “Last Day Alive”

why would they include Malibu tho?

also, I know they had to pick a token Sheeran track, but I think they should have clarified in the blurb that every Ed Sheeran track is the worst

is this the shortest a worst-of-the-year thread has ever been, in 2017 of all years

too much horrible shit to mind in all other corners of life imo

i was pretty impressed by how awful that branches & big wet song is

swish swish is a bad song but it really requires the video to move over into terrible

I don't know what a JMSN is, but this is some garbage:

That’s the only worst-songs-of-the-year list from a major publication this year? Come on, ILM writers, you can do better than that! Where’s Whiney?

EW’s five worst songs of the year:
5. Katy Perry, “Into Me You See”
4. Post Malone feat. 21 Savage, “Rockstar”
3. The Chainsmokers, “Break Up Every Night”
2. DJ Khaled feat. Chance the Rapper, “I Love You So Much”
1. Bhad Bhabie, “These Heaux”

Five worst albums:
5. Prophets of Rage
4. Lil Yachty, Teenage Emotions
3. The Chainsmokers, Memories... Do Not Open
2. Kid Rock, Sweet Southern Sugar
1. Chris Brown, Heartbreak on a Full Moon

kind of a layup there tbh

time puts post malone at #1:

esquire brings in taylor swift’s powerpoint presentation

http://www.esquire.com/entertainment/music/g14470314/worst-songs-of-2017/

not linking uproxx’s because it was poorly written trash

young & menace is kind of amazing

it is! easy to hate though

"bhad bhabie" isn't really any worse that a dozen other people doing similar work; picking on her seems unimaginative

if you want to be galaxy brain cynical you will likely not piss off any advertisers by shitting on bhad bhabie

anyone who didn’t have qveen herby on their list didn’t plumb the depths enough

I know 2017 is over, but I'm still plowing through 2017 year-end playlists and just came across this ghastly thing:
