And yeah, based on the hook, and the fact that he says she's way better than your average neighbourhood whore. Now, Akon is pretty stupid on this, with the way he brings up local rumours she's probably insecure about, which frames this as a song where he's coming to her defense. Maybe it's because I've been aware of a lot of these songs since they came out, and therefore I've had over a decade to let a lot of these sit with me, but looking at what I've actually grown to hate in all that time is quite fascinating, and certainly reveals some interesting patterns of mine that we'll be breaking down as we go along. In retrospect, I was very optimistic and naïve back then, because going through this year again was an absolute CHORE! 2010 may be a better year than 2009, but it was still an incredibly rough year for the charts, with an abundance of terrible club music, a bunch of adult-alternative drivel, and a few abortive experiments that still make absolutely NO sense to this very day! Seriously, compared to 2020, the year to kick off the last decade was abysmal, and as someone who has tended to call himself a much more level-headed and generous person when it comes to music these past couple of years, making this list made me VERY tried at points, so strap in everyone, because there's going to be blood! However, I gotta say, even I was surprised what ended up making this list. And at the time, I stated that 2010 got kind of a bad rep, and honestly held up a little better than I'd expected. The last time I visited it, it was to count down the best hits all the way back in 2017. I haven't talked or even thought about 2010 in a very long time.
