09.12.24 | UPDATE: As the votes are tallied by careful use of the ctrl+f function, please do *not* format any artist name in any way other than that shown on the template. If you type out your ballot yourself, make damn sure that your entry is identical (not case-sensitive, but beyond that). You're welcome to add smack talk etc in parentheses after your entry - but don't make me have to change your names
((almost everyone was perfect last round, but just a heads up))

AlexKzillion

For better or worse, poptimism in the Sput community is A LOT stronger now than it was 5 years ago
But also Janetās The Velvet Rope from what Iāve heard is actually quality stuff. Most people voting for her probably specifically focus on that album |

09.13.24 | So can we get an explanation for why daine is here? An artist with two releases totaling 21 votes across them and no high ratings? Is it because jesper reviewed them? |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.13.24 | In one of 2022ās most controversial moments, Sputnikmusic dot com writer JesperL wrote that daineās debut mixtape Quantum Jumping rendered the artist āTikTok-readyā and āhere to stayā. This caused major backlash: Sputnikmusic dot com user Mort. andā¦ well, mostly Sputnikmusic dot com user Mort. did not agree with the sentiment. In a turn of events that is unfortunate for Sputnikmusic dot com user Mort., daine would end up releasing the single āboythotsā a few months later, and subsequently break the internet about as much as Kim Kardashian did that one time. Now, almost a year later, the brand new mixtape shapeless proves the words that some of us may want to call prophetic: daineās music is here to stay and very TikTok-ready. |
SteakByrnes
