2013 Triple J Hottest 100‏

[The Big Sauce]

Clearly I'm getting my Kanye West's mixed up........ I'm talking about the idiot rap douche who's songwriter pumps out cookie cutter club tracks featuring things like bagging gold diggers, and then knocked up a media whore gold digger who he's about to marry, and pulls the race card at every dumbass opportunity while embarrassing himself whenever he can.

Which one were you talking about?

The one with the best post 2000 catalogue of music

 

[speedybundy]

My votes, guaranteed to have missed some quality ones but anyway

Rufus - Rendezvous
Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know
Birds of Tokyo - Lanterns
Boy and Bear - Southern Sun

Be facetious if you want, but it only makes you seem ignorant and frankly quite stupid. As much as Kanye the person is deservedly derided, his music has been a constantly evolving and consistently great. He has a very legitimate claim for album of the decade and he was the principle reason for the decline of gangsta rap that was dominant when he arrived on the scene in 2003-4.

Your inability to recognise this, puts yourself on the outside of critical reception.

I don't like Kayne the person, because I think he is a douche. But I love his music and that right there is a talent in itself, for people to hate you but still enjoy your music.

 

[bomberlegend2007]

Hahahahahaha, you listen to Matt Corby I don't think I need to say anything else....

I am starting to wonder if you actually listen to JJJJJJ. Bag Thrift Shop all you want because it's the cool thing to do, but that song first gained popularity on there. It was a great song until it became overplayed on mainstream radio.

And, you are bagging someone for listening to Matt Corby, me think this thread is not for you.

No one is voting for Disclosure because if they're in your list that's posted to Facebook, that hot broad u work with in the Tame Impala shirt will think ur just in2 "club bangers" and not soulful "legitimate, grassroots indie bands."

Can see Arcade Fire hitting top four even though Reflektor is the worst lead single they've ever had but their presence as a band blurring indie and mainstream has never been higher/better/more 'cool' for more 'cool' peeps.

Laters. These bagels won't toast themselves.

Not sure how all this validates his selection on a radio station described as "alternative".

Not sure how all this validates his selection on a radio station described as "alternative".

Because when he came through he was considered an alternative rapper, despite his proliferation into the mainstream he still takes many ques from the alternative mindset. He wasn't in mainstream music in Australia and they have always played hip hop from the days when they played nothing but NWA's Express Yourself on loop for 24 hours in resistance to the banning of another hip hop song.

Kanye didn't break through here until Gold Digger which was the second single off of his second LP.

Some artists Triple J stick by no matter how popular they become. Kanye seems to be one of those.

Really hoping Violent Soho make it up high, ******* great band and really down to earth guys. Best gig I've ever been to when I saw them in November. Bought me a beer before the show and let me get up on stage to sing Muscle Junkie! To be honest Covered in Chrome isn't even the best song from their latest album (listen to 'Gold Coast') but that seems to be their best shot at making it.

Also really surprised that 'I Appear Missing' by Queens of the Stone Age didn't get more love, in my opinion it's right up there as one of the best songs they've written. The whole album is quality though, guess you can't put them all in.

 

[thewitness]

Great work as always witness. Just wondering how many votes you counted last year before the top ten was roughly set in stone?

It's never really set in stone, but I would say at around the 5000 vote mark, all of my top 10 will finish in at least the top 20. Although this year seems especially tight, with only the top 3 getting over 1% of the votes at the moment, its normally around the top 10 or 11 that get over 1% of my count.

 

[boyhumbug12]

Surprised to see Global Concepts in there. That's eligible? Could've sworn it was released in 2012.

 

[Portmanteau]

This is looking like the first Hottest 100 in three years where I know more than a handful of songs, more like 30-50. I'm very pleased by this.

Ahhh FasterLouder outdo themselves again. "Latch" was 2012 you gooses.

 

[james Dean]

Lanterns is one of the worst songs I have ever heard. I didn't mind Plans, but it seems BOT are just trying to capitalise on the success of that song by re-creating it again and again.

Stick to what you're good at it, which is why Karnivool is much better than BOT at the moment.

Sorry I really felt like having this rant

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I cannot stand Kanye the person or Kanye's music.
And this is from someone who likes rap, good rap.

I just can't stand it, I dont like his voice, and maybe its just the ones that get airtime but his lyrics have no substance and often don't even make sense. Now his album tracks may be different but from what ive heard it all just sounds like someone who is trying to hard, its not natural and smooth like rap should be, well I think so anyway

But thats just one casual listeners opinion

Listen to The College Dropout and Late Registration, listen to those lyrics and the soulful hooks. That might change your mind.

Of course, each to their own

This tends to be one of the first songs I'll point Kanye knockers to. I think it's earnest, soulful and quite unexpected at the time. Was pretty much the only time I'd heard a love song about someone's mother since 2pac .

Well apart from Stacey's Mom but that's a different type of love



Also love this.

Truth.

And the Grammys performance, shortly after her death - beautiful.
