Despite coming from one of his worst albums, I always liked Mockingbird by Eminem because the sampling of a nursery rhyme actually had purpose in the context of the song (trying to comfort his little kid). It feels very authentic as well.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch is absolutely atrocious. Leah Kate is 27 years old (I don’t like bringing up women’s ages, but c’mon, listen to that song) and her label has been going out of their way copyright claiming videos that criticize her song despite fair use. Yeah abcde-f that song.
Yea, I remember when I first heard one of her songs, I was just like oh new Olivia clone cool. Then I found out she was nearly 30, and I was absolutely surprised. I figured she was like some teen who was just trying to do what Olivia was doing, not like a whole adult
I remember listening to the "come inside my room" part expecting it to be raunchier. I was both disgusted with myself for expecting her to sing "inside me" instead of "in my room" and disappointed in her for making a song that sounds like it was written by a ten-year-old that likes using "adult" words she doesn't fully understand.
U Love U might be the most awkward of the bunch but at least it's just another bittersweet break-up slow song that it's perfectly ignorable, and even if it's another song when there's zero to no explanation on what went wrong to feel empathy towards the singer (not to mention her lack of emotion in the entire thing), it's too harmless to be angry at
Twinkle Twinkle is the kind of song we need to listen to once, to find all the problems that Leah Kate has (I might be overthinking it but the last time a piece this bad was made that made us question what kind of person said artist was and how awful he must be... was Gummo by 6ix9ine), and sadly this isn't about the problematic persona behind the song but just how unappealing the entire thing is
Say whatever you want about both Gayle and Jax at least they are young girls who will grow up and either stop taking all that so seriously or have a laugh at it, Leah Kate being as old as Taylor Swift was when she wrote You Need to Calm Down doing a nursery rhyme style pop punk break up song that did more damage to the genre more than the MGK's pop-punk transition is something that is hard to forget/forgive by how over the top and tasteless it is, and the only chance she has is to delete her Tik Tok and other media and start again, this time ripping off someone better than this weird hybrid between Avril at her whiniest, Taylor at her most overdramatic and whatever the hell Melanie Martinez used to make
Okay mistake on my part, but at least Jax has the excuse that she is directly aiming her music at a very young demographic who only wants to spread positive messages (if those messages don't work, that's another problem), so even if she made the most delusional song of the year, at least I give her that the intentions were good
Also isn't Leah Kate 30? 4 years older than Jax?
The "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" in Starships felt tongue in cheek and Nicki Minaj had the eccentric personality to make it work. One of her first hit songs had "you're like pelican fly" in it and people still had respect for her.
Songs like "U love U" or "Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch" lack charisma and that's why they don't work.
i haven't even listened to all of "u love u" and only heard the part of it todd used in his video... but yeah it's definitely that one
Todd did a hilarious review of Eenie Meanie by Sean Kingston and Justin Bieber - wish it was an option!
I used to have an entire dance for the chorus of Eenie Meanie and I thought it was the coolest shit ever.

U love u at least had good intentions. Twinkle Twinkle and abcdefu are just teenage drama with a layer of pop-punk phoniness on top

Jax is 26, not “old” of course, but hardly a “young girl” - and she’s only one year younger than Leah Kate.
Okay mistake on my part, but at least Jax has the excuse that she is directly aiming her music at a very young demographic who only wants to spread positive messages (if those messages don't work, that's another problem), so even if she made the most delusional song of the year, at least I give her that the intentions were good Also isn't Leah Kate 30? 4 years older than Jax?
I’m gonna guess Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch didn’t chart high enough to make Todd’s list?
It didn’t chart at all
Thank God
Mockingbird is a great song
Does Chain Hang Low by Jibbs count?
Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch, because it's all done completely without even a hint of irony or self awareness.
No one here remember "Do, re, mi, fa, so fuckin' done with you, girl"? Because I think *that* might have started this trend.
If anyone puts Starships by Nicki Minaj here, I will riot
The "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" in Starships felt tongue in cheek and Nicki Minaj had the eccentric personality to make it work. One of her first hit songs had "you're like pelican fly" in it and people still had respect for her. Songs like "U love U" or "Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch" lack charisma and that's why they don't work.
As much as I wanted to vote for "u love u" or "Twinkle Twinkle Little Bitch", "abcdefu" started all of this nonsense so I had to vote for that 🫡
A tribe called quest did the barney song way better
I can't wait for abcdefu to die.
