The Britney-Sounding One (Top 10 Singles of the 2010s)

[koganbot]

Here's a top 10 of the '10s. My desired number one, Brown Eyed Girls' Nivea lip care ad "Smile Chock Chock," turns out to be 2009, too bad.

3. Kesha - Animal/Cannibal

But the next bunch would probably include, in no specific order:

21 Savage - Issa Album
Charli XCX - Sucker
D'Angelo - Black Messiah
Dev - The

Excellent, never heard of any of those before, thanks! There's an ILM thread about 2010 Top Tens, and maybe I'll do one. Will no doubt incl. Gay Sex and others from early line-ups of Guerilla Toss, then an art pop no wave dance party, later kinda tiresome, but it's all on bandcamp, ditto the works of Jlin, spinning out of and around from the Gary, Indiana footwork scene: she makes me think of metallic and crystalline beaded curtains, sometimes rippling in ways that can't be done w/o digits (also good w vocal and perc). Would also have my fave Death Grips release, Government Plates, in ugliest luminous caveman spin class out the ass.
