New and Returning Entries Ranked

1. Bored To Death
Oh my God this actually crossed over. I've been hearing this on the radio a lot over the past couple months and it is fantastic. It's intense and catchy, which is what I expect from blink. Yeah, it won't go anywhere, but I'll be grateful that it's here for now.

2. Ophelia
You know the drill by now. I like this, but it dropping out and coming back is getting exhausting.

3. Brand New
Okay, confession time. I like this song. A lot. I hear it at work frequently and it's one of the better songs that plays there. Yes, the lyrics are kinda worthless, but it's not like they're offensive. They're mostly silly. But the feeling is so happy and infectious, I love it.

4. Flexicution
This song is kinda insufferable. Like, seriously, why does Logic have this big of an ego about himself? I would've ranked this lower, but his technique in the second verse was actually pretty impressive. Even if he really wasn't saying anything.

5. Messin' Around
Still not a fan. But I stand firmly with my opinion that it's not /that/ bad. If your biggest complaint about a song is "it uses a sample", reconsider your opinion.

6. Lockjaw
Not the worst thing, but kinda bland. It just keeps kinda going on. French Montana and Kodak Black have confidence and the beat's alright, but there's not much to grab on to, or to keep coming back to.

7. M.I.L.F.$
This is bad on purpose, right? Right?? Admittedly Fergie does have some good flow, but EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THIS SONG IS WRONG! It steals the chorus line from Webbie's "Independent". It uses the phrase "milfshake". Go die.

  1. I know you hate M.I.L.F$, but the bridge is actually pretty impressive IMO.
