Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
R Kelly's "I Admit" is probably the only thing over 18 he's ever done
LoL
haha
FUCKING LMAO
That's what I call a W
You have written THE perfect comment
I can't believe Kanye has an 8/10 album, a 10/10 album, and a worst single all in one year.
legendary
I was surprised by that one. Not because the song isn't horrible, but I don't think anyone really considered it a "single". It was just something you can tell him and TI put together in 5 minutes to kind of address the Trump stuff.
And a cringing with kanye video, dude's a legend ahahah
That's Kanye for you. Completely unpredictable, always entertaining
He's bipolar what did you expect?
who's watching in 2017
I will

I’m watching this in 1776 now

Yo same!
When I heard Pitbull's Africa cover, I thought:
*"Shit, Africa wasn't butchered this badly since the Berlin Conference of 1884..."*
@Isaac Neiss that had me dying lmao
He really “scrambled” it up
Damn, now that’s a deep cut
Historical joke.. nice

can't wait for Eminem to drop a Fantano diss
Id die of laughter

Why is the gunshot that killed X listed as a single here Jesus Christ melon
Macbeth yo this is a fucking hilarious comment. I laughed for 12 whole minutes, real talk.
It should be in the Best Singles list
@@sudevsen #1 with a bullet :D
I know, it was more of an EP.
dont get it
All these singles are bad, but I'm pretty sure me being single the whole year is the worst
Same bro, I feel you 😥
😂😂😂
ok winner
Too real man
dude did you hear you’re the top 0 on the list
I never thought I'd see Paul McCartney on the same list as Lil Xan and 6ix9ine. 2018 was a crazy year
William Walrus Ranked even worse at that
Well, McCartney’s song was really quite terrible.
Eliza Anderson I highly agree
Paul McCartney has a history of bad sonds wdym
Ebony and Ivory is horrible
William Walrus The difference between Paul McCartney & those two pieces of filth though is that they will be irrelevant in a year, but Paul McCartney’s legacy will always live on!
"The opposite of macklemore in every way except talent level" LOL
Magamore.
Macklemore must've felt that lol
LMAO
That's unfair, The Heist was a really nice album.
@@dunadan1995 That's true. It is really enjoyable if you can take it for what it is - a pop rap album. I mean it was what has gotten me into hip-hop overall. A nice gateway and listening to it brings back so many memories.
“He’s the opposite of Macklemore in every way except for skin color and talent level”
That’s the sickest Macklemore burn I’ve ever heard
At least Macklemore made some decent songs. Melon should show more love for Mr Mackle

I want to be present at Anthony Fantano's death so I can blast 'Fuh You' as he drifts into the hereafter.
Patavinity underrated comment
It would be an epic twist if deathbed melon grabs Patavinity and gives an unbidden redux review of "Fuh you"
Anthony Fantano is relaxing in his casket as he is about to be lowered into the dirt by a group of his admirers for one last, meaningful time. He then springs up out of his coffin to everyone’s surprise, and states smugly with a slight smirk on his face, “ With my last words, I have to say... FUH YOU: NOT GOOD” . He then folds his arms back over his chest and tells his family and loved ones to hurry up with his burial before they receive their own NOT GOOD review.
By giving attention to this track, you have guaranteed that this track will NEVER be forgotten, even after you die.
@@scotty7864 why is he being buried alive by his admirers is there a some kind of weird cult surrounding him that im not aware of
whiteboy came out this year? damn 2018 really has been long.
youthproblem yeah, it came out in February; feels just like yesterday!
I was gonna say that he was gonna put his latest single on here, but then I realized that 2018 is basically the equivallence of eternity on the internet an W H I T E B O Y did indeed come out this year.
yeah that feels like forever ago. Oh wait, it's 2024 now
Only Kanye could make a 10/10 album and a worst track of the year in the same year
Anthony, in 2019, can you go back to walking out in your yard and yelling the album name?
Sincerely, a longtime fan :)

@Matija Kovačević if he does it imma freak. He doesn't even gotta do it every time, just like occasionally to spice it up.

"It's like he's the opposite of Macklemore in every way except for skin color and talent level," lmao
Bruh how is "Friends" by Marshmello not here? That song makes me want to rip my ears out every time it comes on the radio
Cryptrik
That song is my guilty pleasure of this year and I wholeheartedly agree. It's the movie "The Room" but of bad pop music instead. FRIENDS is just a train wreck that my ears can't not listen to. XD
Sprite Lady Fuck that song, for real.
OOOooooOOOOh, OOOoooOOOOOOOOhhh
LightSpeed
Agreed XD
It may be that Mr fantano let his personal views and political views get the best of him during this list. i felt that multiple things were left out.
Girls Like You!?
Where are you!?
Hippo I was expecting that one
The production on that one was nice tho
Intro 10/10. It really shows how much Cal cares about and Anthony and you can tell they really have a special connection and are in tune with each others emotions.
Larz_Vox I hope the live action remake will be true to the source material
Well that's gay
Anthony frequently has meltdowns and outbursts, you just don't see it much in his videos. Cal goes through an immense amount of stress being Anthony's caretaker, and I worry for both of their health.
And for reference, this was a mild outburst. You wouldn't want to see what a bad one looks like. Authorities have been called in the past.
Reminder that lil xan and Noah Cyrus broke up coz Noah sent Lil xan a meme that he didn't get
George Fielder lol are you serious? 😂
Wat
She shoved Cheeto dust in his lungs
I swear every time I hear some news about lil xan it gets harder and harder to believe
That's the most 2018 thing I've heard all year
Freaky Friday should’ve just stayed a video parody instead of hitting the radio
Isaiah in the same way as This Is America
Derek Wadas nah those songs should never be compared
Dylan This Is America *IS* meaningless. It WOULD NOT have the same level or impact w/o it’s music video to go alongside. Be honest with yourself, if Childish Gambino only made the song and never the video and it was playing on your car radio, would it have the same amount of impact? I highly doubt it. Just look up the lyrics to it and separate the song itself from the music video. It almost sounds nonsensical.
Derek Wadas flawed
I first heard the song while I was working a convention. I thought it was a parody song they were playing in between sessions....couldn’t believe it was a real song
Smfh Melon's just too biased to recognise the greatest single of the year:
Ocean to Ocean by Pitbull _WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!!!!_
MJR Schneider mr worldwide
Mr 305
Dale
Who would’ve seen this coming Tom Macdonald’s “Whiteboy” song
Ikr is an awesome song
He, like, didn't address any of the technicals of the song. He just disliked the message. Which means the actual worst song of 2018 was the R Kelly song. Fantano's also sweeping generalisation that the majority of people disagreed with Kanye's support of Trump just shows he cannot separate his biases and his music critique, and his throwing of the 'These Kids are Alt-right' song was just to throw people off.
@@skyrimLEGION No they were all just pretty bad songs and the messages in it weren't really all that great. I'm not sure if you listened to Whiteboy but if you still not understand why it's such a bad song then maybe music isn't your thing...
@@skyrimLEGION Fantano was just trying to trick specifically you by putting """""These Kids are Alt-right""""" on the list, but you were too smart. Great work, fellow epic gamer
@@ElGiganto17 He gave specific reasons why particular songs were bad. The reverb and grating of 'Venom,' and the uninspired flow of 'Freaky Friday.' And they're justifiable bad pieces of music. But when you throw a song on, say 'it's hated by the majority,' and give no further explanation as to why the song is where it is, it does come across as a little unfulfilling. Anthony gives good reasons all the time, and when a song is good, he'll say why - as will he give a reason why it's bad. What's more, he'll go in-depth. Maybe not as much as he would in a single or album review, but I was expecting a puddle at least. But for the songs he had personal grievances with the message with, or mishandling a message he approves of, he doesn't go very far with it. Surely you can see where I'm coming from.
Didnt expect “This is America” to be number one.
Ogie McPunlin it actually is bad though
I agree. I guess the message is okay but the song is completely un bumpable. Like I would literally rather bump 1970s Outlaw country
You're surprised by that? How about putting the rest of the Black Panther soundtrack on the whole list? I was kinda shocked at that, although not really.
@@ChromeTecNina well it's not mainly ment to be a nice sounding song.... it's all about the message
@@ChromeTecNina thats tough

The only time I want to hear R. Kelly admit anything is in court
I didn’t mind Freaky Friday the first few times I heard it. Some of the jokes actually make me chuckle a bit, but I didn’t really take note of how terrible they were until later. Technically it’s Chris Brown singing it, but he’s singing from the perspective of a white guy about how great it is that he can say the N word.
Lil Dicky is one of saddest rappers alive.
That sing is pure cringe
The poster by Cal reads:
"attention Fandango if you keep stealing my bombass memes without mentioning me or the subreddit, I will set you're shining head on Fire (kids see ghost)
Parental Advisory Explicit Content"
HA Cal is calling you out!
fire (kids see ghosts)
Fire is such an underrated track

The eminem song was shit but there's no way it was worse than the Pitbull song bro
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
At least Eminem didn’t ruin one of the best songs of its genre
@@jesusquicksaves No but he did that with "Zombie" in 2017 on Revival and therefore he deserves it
I kinda enjoyed Venom
@@VarsityAthlete04 I enjoyed it a lot
Melon was lowkey spitting bars in this video like I swear every other sentence rhymed
"in my cranium made of vibranium and titanium"
He’s a spiritual lyrical miracle
🤦🏽♂️
Bruh this is true. If you focus there are really some moments where it makes sense
Don't let this distract you from the fact that coolio has a music video on pornhub
excuse me *what the fuck*
I think that song should take the #1 spot here
Not the First to do that...Rammstein did it in 2009 with their lead single which is basically porn

holy moly its mr list!!
mr scromp what are you doing here, go work on your mxgp pro review
Holy moly donut shop!
mr list has dark sunglasses
Anthony can you review Stalin's Five Year Plan next please?
Jack Morgan the first five year plan was decent, there was a increase in industrial output in major areas such as electricity, coal and natural gas. But the devastating famine of 1932 due to collectivization undoes all good of the industry. Decent to light 0.1
Can you believe me when I say I'm studying that EXACT thing RIGHT NOW

Make sure you put WhiteBoy at the top of the list. That'll really get the party jumpin' 😎
Make sure you start of with R.Kelly to pump everyone up
Great list Melon, maybe ease off of saying the *N word* so much. 16 times is 15 too much.

Red Phone You had to say this... stfu
tom maconald is literally the worst artist ive ever listened too.
At least Macklemore can rap fast, and his early music is fun. Tom MacDonald is closer to an edgy Vanilla Ice

POOPITY SCOOP
The song if Definitely close to being redeemable. Liberty by Amnesty is one of my favorite samples out of ALL SONGS in recent years. Like the actual song together is ruined by Kanye’s trolling but FUCK ME that sample slaps
Tyler Stedman the trolling is actually charming and essential.
I was at a Paul McCartney concert two days ago, and he played Fuh You.
It kind of grew on me a little bit.
That song is not that bad . I love the beats but the lyrics are not so good .
Love that my man has 2 copies of kids SEE ghosts on his shelf
Why is Dicko Mode on this list 😤😤
Cause it was good
cause it slaps
Cause it sucks

I appreciate that your list was different from everyone elses. I've seen 4-5 other top 10 worst for 2018 and they were all very similar
Ocean To Ocean deserves to be higher tbh
Pretty crazy how it only came out a few days ago and still made it to number 6 on the list. Just shows you how bad it is.
I agree
The Venom single is the reason why I can't say the character's name without adding at least five more m's

@@LochlainnMacdonald It'd be funny, but it's basically an unspoken internet rule to not respond to negative criticism.

Somebody finally said it
I've never really payed enough attention until now, but the jump cuts of Anthony's videos really keep up the pace and energy. They make it seem like one complete thought. Pretty impressive editing
I'm surprised that "Girls Like You" - Maroon 5 didn't pop on here
Tony Lednev I’m *VERY* surprised that I Love It by Kanye and Lil Pump ain’t up here!
i actually quite like ye vs the people for non political reasons
Dole Memes
Me too. I really like the sample and just how the song sounds.
The Austinator224 yes mainly the sample
The other song he did has a killer beat as well. Both these songs got me beyond hype for ye (which was kinda dissapointing tbh)

@Gage Holle What do you mean my dude, Mr. Worldwide only samples the best music and only makes it better with his signature lines like: D A L E and M R W O R L D W I D E
@Gage Holle Mr. Worldwide has put global statements over tribal African music. He saved us from pollution, the economic divide, and terrorists with this single song.
Idk man Ye vs. The People just feels like it doesn’t belong here.
9:28 anthonys impression of eminem = pearl jam
Venom is pure trash. The movie was trash and when the credits started playing with the Venom song, immediately realized it was one of the worst songs ever.
I love the song only for the fact that it is so goddamn bad its just a blast to listen to
It's a guilty pleasure to me, but I kinda hate it for it doesn't fit that well for Kamikaze and it coulf d easily been more fire tbh.

“It should be no news to you that in 2018 a lot of music did come out..” thank you melon very informative, important, game changing information.
honestly didn't know that until he said it thank you fantony antano
That guy. Absolutely glad you caught that
“L-l-lick salad bowl, Edgar Allan Poe” I feel like one of the problems with Eminem’s lyrics these days is sometimes he says a bunch of bullshit; he says shit just for the sake of a smart-sounding reference and a multisyllabic rhyme. There’s a salad bowl called the Edgar Allan Poe at some place. Okay??? He doesn’t do anything with this reference, he just throws it out there. Nothing against references or multisyllabic rhyming, obviously; it’d be hard to find rap music without any lol. That said, I’d honestly rather a rap song do without some references than just have those things there because it sounds impressive; same goes with a simpler rhyme scheme rather than sacrificing the lyrics to make it technical. If your rhyme scheme is intricate but you’re saying a bunch of bullshit, it’s still lazy. References should be used for a purpose, such as making an analogy
He's a good rapper but i agree with you even tho' i liked Venom but i wish the lyrics made a bit more sense in some parts then it would be an amazing song
