Top 5 Songs in the year 2019

Top 5 Songs in the year 2019:

It is that time of the year where we wrapped up all the best music of 2019 and have each song battle it out for the spot. This year was a tough one for the up and coming artists of 2019. As usual, we stay away from the more established artist but some artist was so hot that they had significant commercially and we are fine with that; it is always to see young artist achieve new plateaus. Here is the list below:   

 

  1. Pop Smoke – WELCOME TO THE PARTY

Coming in at number 5 is Pop Smoke. A new artist from the New York City area that most people with any device that had played music heard this song. A deep voice that matched the horns and drum to tee was a hit that nobody gets enough of listening to. Let’s hope you can keep this up.

  1. SAINt JHN – Trap

SAINt JHN’s song trap is another great song. The melody mixed with the wordplay by both SAINt JHN and Lil Baby was a blatant attempt to make a commercial sounding song and it worked. 

  1. Cassanova – Jail Call

With all this talk about mass incarceration, it is quite refreshing to hear what going on in jail from the perspective of an inmate. The emotion on this song could only be seen through the eyes of human who was in the belly of that beast. This isn’t the first it has been done but it is one of the more tasteful since Beanie Sigel’s “What Your Life’s Like.” Enjoy

  1. Dreamville – PTSD

This album cut could quite possibly be the sleeper of the year. This was one of the most introspective songs of the year. The melody of the beat had so much emotion, the words in the flows were all on point. I chose this one because it is quite hard to have so many new artists collaborate on one track and have it sound so good. I compare this to songs like Kanye West “Street Lights” or A Tribe Called quest’s “Stressed Out.”

  1. Dababy – Suge

How could we not put one of the biggest records of the year as number one. This artist breath control, wordplay, delivery, energy on this song was completely brand new and I think that’s why it worked. All I know is I’m glad I got to enjoy it.
