I only included bands that weren't in my top albums (otherwise this list would've been 5 songs by VW and 5 by Weyes Blood). Anyway:
Alex Cameron - Gaslight
Alex G - Southern Sky
Angel Olsen + Mark Ronson - True Blue
Caroline Polachek - Door
Clairo - Closer to You
Diplo + Morgan Wallen - Heartless
Frankie Cosmos - Windows
Freddie Gibbs - Practice
Jay Som - Superbike
Luke Combs - Every Little Bit Helps
Max Richter - To the Stars (Ad Astra Soundtrack)
Slaughter Beach, Dog - Heart Attack
Sturgill Simpson - Mercury in Retrograde
Post Malone - Circles
Taylor Swift - Paper Rings
I would also include William Tyler's "Goes West" and I know it's a little counter to the point of this list, but I genuinely think the Luke Combs album is good (especially if you ignore the singles).
Either way this has got me revisiting The Highwomen, which is always a good thing.
Other candidates:
Pete Buttigieg: Hair Metal for All Who Want It
Joe Biden: *hugs Billie Eilish uncomfortably*
Tom Steyer/Michael Bloomberg hybrid monster: "You like Van Halen? Ok, I just bought their whole catalog."
Bernie Sanders: "PANAMA! PANAMAAAA!"
Anyway that's my attempt at that meme format.
I'm not really into Westside Gunn (or Griselda that much tbh) but this Gunn verse is prob my favorite of his:

1. Father of the Bride -- Vampire Weekend
2. Titanic Rising -- Weyes Blood
3. A Distant Call -- Sheer Mag
4. Forever Turned Around -- Whitney
5. Diaspora -- Goldlink (weird fucking posts will not disqualify this one)
6. Outer Peace -- Toro y Moi
7. Goes West -- William Tyler
8. You Deserve Love -- White Reaper
9. Rico Nasty + Kenny Beats -- Anger Management
10. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Soundtrack (IDGAF what year the songs are from)
#1 and #2 are in order, the rest are pretty fluid.
Shoutout also to Alex Cameron, Jay Som, Luke Combs, Post Malone, and Faye Webster.
