Dishonorable Mentions - Part 2

Here is the second and final list of songs that didn't make the cut for the worst pop songs of 2014.

1. "Not a Bad Thing" - Justin Timberlake

This song is basically a rehash of,"Mirrors" even referencing some of the same lyrics.  I couldn't really get into song though most critics gave it a positive review. Justin Timberlake vocal performance is meh here. He has done better.  The beat is good though.

2,  "Come Get It Bae" - Pharrell Williams

This was truly a disappointing follow up single to,"Happy."  Pharrell made production wise another, "Blurred Lines" record, but this beat is not as catchy. Having Miley Cyrus getting punch in the gut and shouting,"hey" throughout the background of the song is just irritating. Pharrell vocals are pretty good here.

3.#SELFIE - The Chainsmokers

The viral sensation hit song had to make the list for sure.  It is a novelty song, but I never could really hate it for what it is. It is parody song with obnoxious girls out in the clubs.  The girls are annoying in it, and the beat is a generic edm track. It never got on my nerves that quickly for me.


4. Demi Lovato feat.Cher Lloyd - "Really Don't Care"

Out of all Disney stars on the radio at the moment, Demi Lovato is the weakest singer. Cher Lloyd really should stop rapping. Otherwise the song itself never truly got on my nerves.

5. "We Dem Boyz" - Wiz Khalfia

This song is crap. It is purely all chorus which itself is s**t. I don't like the autotune voice on Wiz Khalfia voice especially on the chorus. This song mark the point where Wiz just does not care about his music, and just makes whatever sells. I do find it funny he explains what the lottery is with the side vocals effects. Truly a 0/5 effort.

6. "Ten Feet Tall" - Afrojack feat.Wrabel

I just find the EDM drop here is disappointing. I would think Afrojack would make a more powerful drop here instead of this one. I didn't find the lyrics that interesting either.

7. This Is How We Roll (Remix)  Florida Georgia Line feat. Jason Derulo 

-Should had been rename this is how we autotune. Would had been included on the worst list if it were a bigger hit.
