2022 was another year. We’re still in a pandemic, but we sometimes pretend that we aren’t. Influenza is raging this viral season just as hard as all the emo millennials did this summer at the My Chemical Romance reunion tour. We spent hours scrolling through TikTok and getting the viral sounds stuck in our heads. That whole ‘Will Smith slapping Chris Rock’ thing happened. Britney Spears posted at least 50 videos of her doing that weird dancing/posing thing that she does now (You ok, Brit?). And I guess the Queen died or whatever?
Despite everything, 2022 still managed to bring us some rad music. Here are my favs of 2022:
Albums
Wet Leg – Wet Leg
THICK – Happy Now
Megan Thee Stallion – Traumazine
The Beths – Expert in a Dying Field
LIZZO – Special
and special, honorable mention to the surprise single drop by Paramore! “This is Why”
I’m also going to list some of my top ‘Viral TikTok Songs’ from 2022 because I can:
LIZZO – “About Damn Time”
ROSALIA – “BIZCOCHITO”
Nicki Minaj – “Super Freaky Girl”
Millie B – “M to the B”
AND THAT MASH-UP OF “ANTI-HERO” BY TAYLOR SWIFT WITH “CUTE WITHOUT THE E” BY TAKING BACK SUNDAY IS EVERYTHING.
