The biggest crime is Loefah's new haircut, but you can't really HEAR that.
yeah Loefah's been committing some abominable hair crimes for a few years now..

for me it's wiley, skepta and jme's 'can you hear me'. not just because of the fact that they're so keen to waste their talent on shit like this, but also because it's an archetype of everything i hate about the current dominant pop sound.
pop today, post-guetta, is all 'wahheyyyy we're having an AMAZING time!!!!!!'. it's so forced and relentless and desperate. it's like the musical equivalent of those people that go around with holsters dispensing shots of jagermeister at shit clubs.

anyway, i have in the past said that 'trap' music should inspire uk producers so i'm cringing at myself now. but then - look at jungle, which was inspired by hip hop but was certainy no rote replication of it, but rather a transformative technical mutation of that original blueprint? i'm not into white suburban guys wearing bandanas on their face or whatever, i can only see that being a flash in the pan.

Only heard the Conor Maynard part of that song and thought the beat was suspiciously nuum indebted. Would of been better as just a straight Wiley song tbh.
Never heard of Conor Maynard before. Is he supposed to be a Justin Timberlake clone?
Beat doesnt sound too bad though.
That Thamys one is truly bad. Here's a similar one my girlf put me onto a coupla months back. You probably know it, going by the viewing figures:
Here is something my friend was telling me about yesterday that he saw at Womad & made him want to stick needles in his ears. So wrong I almost want to go & see it. Not exactly a totally new fusion (hip hop & opera), more one that you would have thought people would have got over the need to attempt by now!: http://womad.co.uk/lineup/timetable/artist/4271/lorchestra-di-piazza-vittorio-il-flauto-magico/
Asian Girlz by Day Above Ground will probably be in the end of the year round ups of worst music.
