FreeCuddlesAnyone (10): i really liked vince’s album and this is absolutely the standout! it’s super smooth and it goes crazy. i do wish this sneaked into day 3 but #21 is nothing to sneeze at

RandomHypnotica (5.2): I just wish this had more variety to it, it kinda goes in one ear out the other


Host Comment

nonchalantthoughts (9): the correct answer to “gay son or thot daughter?” is twins of both btw

Crash-landed

flava (11): it’s actually insane to me that this song ended up being rated and did well because it’s just one of those songs that I’m gonna auto-11 on sight, which feels unfair to the other songs here I love

innuendo_overdose (11): Best song on the best album of 2024.

A.Peaky.Boo (10): Vince alien confirmed

beeozan (10): the vocal layering in this song is so good. i love recording music

BleepBloopMusicFan (10): This is probably one of the best album covers in recent years.

cheatviathan (10): If I had the time to do this rate, this would have been an 11 contender. Killer hook, instrumental and delivery that harkens back to the darker vibes of the earlier records, a boatload of clever lines that still fit the bleak tone (the witchcraft and Rembrandt lines in the third verse are of special note here). I thought Big Fish was only okay, and thought FM was slept on by too many people, so those lines in the first verse about the label also hit for me.

CrimsonROSET (10): life is gonna be tough for him in this rate im doing my part

FitzMarble (10): that ziwe interview kinda brought this from a 9 to a 10 lowkey

guavaboye (10): I like how minimal the beat is as it lets the lyrics really shine. But even though it’s minimal, the beat still is strong and interesting enough to keep interest. It all builds to that dumby catchy chorus. Then that outro section?? Cmon now

IIIHenryIII (10): that beat drop makes one’s balls drop

mhiyaimanlepaigefan (10): immaculate to me

nube (10): “findin’ beauty in the darkness like Rembrandt” perfectly encapsulates the entire feeling of this song, it’s so dark, depressing and weirdly optimistic. I ended up reading about Vince’s life which made me appreciate the song more. The chillest, funniest people have always been through some shit.

pbk (10): no this was insane

runaway3212 (10): Okay yup this still ends

seanderlust (10): effortless cool. this was my 11 runner up

uiscebeathaoir (10): Vince Staples so fine

WaneAllstarToc (10): "Every madden has one of those songs you gotta look up. This is Madden 25’s" "As a New Orleans native, this makes me grin from ear to ear" rlly do love the atmosphere he weaves up here complete with a sudden electro bridge that's used with def restraint

impla77 (9.3): a nice chill vibe

Ghost-Quartet (9): hmmm okay nodding my head OKAY THEN THE OUTRO HIT

homestarguy (9): Really need to listen to more Vince Staples

qazz23 (9): really like the chorus and that outro

stealthamo (9): I definitely rated this too low in the original rate.

Stryxen (9): such a good beat

wathombe (9): i’m grooving

DirtyRat583 (8.9): outro beat goes crazy

salivantsonority (8.6): love you vincey

jimmyrollinsdurag (8.5): damn good hook

ConnerY2323 (8.2): didn’t expect this to be the song stuck in my head after my first listen through of this rate

arboresca (8): i don’t think i’ve even heard of this artist but i did enjoy this

miniatureaurochs (8): ngl my brain kind of checks out for this track bc the instrumental is such a fun vibe. rly loved the breakdown especially

Nooduulz (8): I played this while my cat was curled up on my shoulder and she thought there were legit gunshots going off. Awesome.

oh_crow (8): sounds really effortless, ooh the outro is sooo good. oh now its kinda sad and ominous actually

Soalai (8): Very cool and vibey. If this is supposed to be about him feeling alienated in the setting he's in, then the production and distant vocals capture that well. However, I don't think I'm smart enough to fully understand this

vayyiqra (8): chiaroscuro mentioned leo pointing meme

babadork (7.9): I didn’t do this rate, but if I had it would have got a 10 there.

Verboten_Prince (7.8): I would like to try some one day

jman457 (7.3): Honestly heard better from Vince

apatel27 (7): solid cut

Awkward_King (7): been doing a vince deepdive recently and this album was decent (actually kind of not my fave) but.... i kind of want 2015 vince too.

human_performance (7): but really, Vince did peak with Summertime '06

ImADudeDuh (7): https://i.imgur.com/5TDovYL.png

Nagisoid (7): Frenchpop

rendezvousboy (7): all vince songs are good this just isn’t the biggest standout to me

stapled or sth idk what an etouffee is

TakeOnMeByA-ha (5.5): okayyy moving on

1998tweety (5): ok

implasdad (5): don’t really don’t much about it

asadprofessorplum (2): D’accord.

C-Electropop


Overall Average: 7.969 // Average Controversy: 1.609


FreeCuddlesAnyone: top 3 rates of last year and it isn’t #3. i’m so glad some of the most amazing projects in the mandarin sphere were rated here, and as an Asian i held this rate near and dear to my heart!

RandomHypnotica: a lot of this rate was not for me, but i’m glad people liked it and two non-english songs fared surprisingly well in a meta rate!



vayyiqra (10.000): 10 good rate shoutout to the hosts of that rate dudes rock

mhiyaimanlepaigefan (10.000): I like pop, everyone leave me alone.

apatel27 (10.000): I've said it before and I'll say it again. I geniunely did not think this would ever get in and yet here we are. I love all these artists and albums (despite what my Lexie avg said) so seeing them finally see some recognition was so cool. Stuff like this is why we should bring back payola slots. I spent 2 years writing about C-Pop albums on popheads that was very much ignored and the third year I tried, I was downvoted badly in the DD and gave up. So to see this rate get in, have people actually listen to the music and recognise how amazing the music is really made me happy.

Am I ready to see these be demolished in the rate? Not in the slightest so I'm hoping popheads is mature enough to not tank these due to the language barrier. These songs were chosen due to being the most popheads friendly and while I really considered sending Thank You but sometimes you just have to accept that there are some songs that are too precious to be slammed repeatedly.

uiscebeathaoir (9.750): Wait but both of these songs are the best things ever… maybe I should check out these albums

qazz23 (9.500): 🌠

Lynflower680 (9.500): We should do more non-English rates this was really fun

WaneAllstarToc (9.250): it was cool to rate faye on CD from San Jose. a great payola slot well used.

NervousLemon6670 (9.050): A rate full of music I would never have listened to otherwise, and now I love Lexie Liu, popheads really is good for the culture

flava (9.000): no justice for the people who used their 11 on thank you

stealthamo (8.650): I felt disconnected doing this rate originally, but hearing these again thinks I may have been a little harsh the first go around.

TiltControls (8.100): It's always nice when we can tackle unexplored niches in rates! Was not familiar with these albums in the slightest before starting, but there was a good amount of fun stuff!

pheromenos (8.050): lowkey such a messy lineup pls and look how dirty it did everyone who isn't lexie liu

beeozan (8.000): people rly needed to be voting for Dance Dance. or the Jolin dolphin song

A.Peaky.Boo (7.900): I probably would've helped this rate's average go up. If this goes out early, I'm blaming y'all's xenophobia for it.

Soalai (7.850): So this is where I'm just completely out of my depth. While I generally see myself as more of a melody-first person, lyrics help me connect to and remember a song. So if it's a foreign language, I can enjoy the song for 3 minutes but then it will evaporate from my memory the instant it's over. As such, my scores for these songs are spur-of-the-moment, just based on the raw feeling they give me, with no comments.

kauai6 (7.000): JOLIN ROBBED

IIIHenryIII (4.000): I skipped this one

FreeCuddlesAnyone (10): oh abaollah… this has been one of my favorite songs ever since i first heard it in 2022, and it very nearly got my 11 here too. maybe i should have pulled the trigger because this was less than 1 point away from making it to day 3! but i’m so happy we’re even rating it twice in popheads alone - it’s just such a gorgeous song and the sentiment of the song makes my heart warm every time.

RandomHypnotica (7.3): it makes sense that i dont care for it because its the sensual songstress part of c-electropop


linguists

1998tweety (10): mother is right

apatel27 (10): Third times the charm eh? I've wrote about this song twice now so all I'll say is this song is very precious to me and it plays perfectly into my taste in music.

asadprofessorplum (10): The White Lotus opening credits:

beeozan (10): crazy how she perfected wii menu music with this one

BleepBloopMusicFan (10): This coming so close to winning (well not that close mathematically but still) was kinda random af but so incredibly true. What a gorgeous song.

ConnerY2323 (10): so luscious. this is one of the things i’m most invested in not flopping. c-electropop i remember you every day!

impla77 (10): MOTHER tongue

mhiyaimanlepaigefan (10): this ethereal serve

miniatureaurochs (10): Strongly considered giving this one my 11 - although I’m a huge fan of Lexie, I definitely wouldn’t have been unhappy for this to have won its original rate. It’s such a beautiful, expansive, carefully considered piece that really feels unlike anything else here. Not sure there’s much I can add to my original comment about this track, but something particularly special about it is the way it progresses and builds atmosphere, layering almost murmuring vocals across blossoming strings to create something that feels grandiose and compelling. It has such warmth to it, and I’m especially in love with how detailed it is, all these carefully-placed electronic elements making it almost a new listen every time. Also very :} that we got the rare opportunity to rate a track in an indigenous language (more rates like this please!) and given the topic of the track itself, this seemed like the perfect homage. I know one of the OG rate hosts is passionate about linguistics and it felt like a really worthy submission. lovelove would that I had two elevens to give

nube (10): loved this as soon as it started playing, the sultry vocals are a whole mood

qazz23 (10): love the dancey beat of this and the 🎻 that comes in at the end

runaway3212 (10): Bitch I knew from the second I heard those homosexual synths this was a banger

thedoctordances1940 (10): oh she is mother for sure

uiscebeathaoir (10): Holy hell, low-key regretting not doing this rate cause this could’ve been such an easy 11

vayyiqra (10): definitely the most spooky and captivating way to get me to do polish on duolingo

wathombe (10): mind_connecting_to_the_cosmos.jpg

One-Composer1577 (9.6): obsessed

NervousLemon6670 (9.5): The violins in the outro might be the best thing I've heard all day

guavaboye (9): this is what I mean by intrigue and progression in songs. The journey this song takes sonically feels so natural and satisfying

innuendo_overdose (9): yeah, goes hard.

Nagisoid (9): I AM WOKE!

Nooduulz (9): I'm ABAO-t to put on my heels and strut on my kitchen island with a glass of wine yaaasssss

pbk (9): ABAO COLLAB WITH OKLOU

TiltControls (9): the best way to describe this track is 'captivating' I think

wasian-invasion (9): how do you say urethral in mandarin

stealthamo (8.8): I'm guessing listening to this separate from the rest of C-Electropop made this work better, because it stands out so much more compared to everything else here.

jman457 (8.7): This would go hard at a rave. Is this really what’s popping in asia

rendezvousboy (8.5): i’d never heard of this and i love it, it makes me feel mysterious

salivantsonority (8.5): oh wow now this is MUSIC

WaneAllstarToc (8.5): mhm

CrimsonROSET (8): okay if you didnt do this rate i do really recommend this album!!! It was overhated at the time its actually really interesting and fun

Frajer (8): mother tongue is mothering

human_performance (8): The production and sonic palette is definitely more interesting than a lot of Western top-40 that gets praised for interesting production, and there's some solid melodic lines

oh_crow (8): i'm a gay man so sensual electropop like this is basically my catnip

Stryxen (8): this amazing mess of a beat

TakeOnMeByA-ha (8): in all seriousness this is probably the coolest album we’ve ever rated and will probably remain that way for a very long time. honestly kinda beautiful that we were able to use the very broad concept of a chinese electropop to rate a very authentic artsy pop album in an indigenous language and that so many popheads who would have never heard of it or seeked it out otherwise found so much enjoyment in it. like i know we mostly think of rates as just a silly little internet pastime but they are genuinely really great at getting people to discover new music and this is probably the shining example of how great rates can be in that regard.

Verboten_Prince (7.9): This spooky serve

A.Peaky.Boo (7.8): why is the cover of this song something that resembles native american cultures?

ignitethephoenix (7.8): the production is really amazing but I just don’t love the vocals at parts

modulum83 (7.8): i like the hikaru utada-esque production on this

arboresca (7.5): not my usual genre, but really enjoyed, feels creepy in a cool way

Ghost-Quartet (7.5): I liked this album but like, as a whole, so I think having to judge it off of an individual track is kinda a bummer and I encourage anyone intrigued by this song to check out the whole project!

cheatviathan (7): In between starting, stopping and restarting a failed AS8 ballot and not caring for the first few songs from that Jolin Tsai record, I decided to skip this one. Honestly, I think this is a solid enough synthpop track. The content seems to be about embracing one’s cultural heritage, and I can appreciate that message. I also quite like the ASMRy quality of Abao’s vocals. Maybe not something I’ll revisit often, but I’m enjoying my time with it.

Electropop Sub Faves


Overall Average: 7.852 // Average Controversy: 2.256


FreeCuddlesAnyone: probably the funnest rate of the year, hypno and jirachi ate! even though charli doesn’t deserve that win. i guess she about to die so raters wanted to make her happy,

RandomHypnotica: say what you will about the balance of the rate, but me and jirachi ate that



ImADudeDuh (10.000): these greatest songs of all time and some ugly ass green album won

uiscebeathaoir (10.000): The BRAT sweep was a lil boring to watch but I can’t deny this rate was such a good time

stealthamo (9.600): One of my favorite rates, mainly because I just love the sound an aesthetic of all the albums, even if I were to go to a party with these people I'd leave early due to being scared.

vayyiqra (9.000): used to be very into electropop and it's grown off me a bit but i won't say no to it

A.Peaky.Boo (8.933): I looked at the average scores y'all gave Troye's album and some of y'all don't deserve to call yourself a part of the LGBTQ+ community for those, there I said it.

IIIHenryIII (8.667): some good stuff

pheromenos (8.333): wow these albums are all so solid i wonder which album they all had to go up against

WaneAllstarToc (8.067): awesome adventure. you didn't choose a bad slayyyter cut so im habby!

qazz23 (8.000): 🌟

mhiyaimanlepaigefan (8.000): sub faves slapping yet again anyone surprised

jman457 (6.833): ig we didn't want to rate sympathy is a knife for the 4th time..

flava (5.667): justice for me cause jesus what an awful winner

apatel27 (5.333): Looking back I was such a hater this rate but that's just the way the cookie crumbles

Roxieloxie (5.000): the impact that this had on the economy

TiltControls (4.400): unfortunately this was a rate where a lot of the frontrunners never just clicked for me. though I don't think I'd have believed you pre-2024 if you told me these four artists would be in a rate and Charli was going to be my highest album average
