[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

The poll for most interesting Pop Thing - as with the other polls we're doing this CANON STYLE i.e. you pick your three most interesting pop things from this list of all* the stuff that was nominated.

[Poll #1314032]

*except I removed noms which were about Poptimists itself, mostly to get it down to 15.

I nominated (and obv ticked) Kanye because of his omnipresence this year: American Boy, 808s, Flashing Lights and of course his BLOG which is just mental.

Bassline tick vg, something so awesome charting then VANISHING entirely.

Beyonce/Sasha - probably the single artist I have posted on poptimists about most this year!

I think Kanye appears 3 times in MY top 20 of the year, which is saying something. Definite tick for him as a result. Not sure about the rest of this list though...

Bassline didn't vanish though - the scene is still going strong! Its chart presence vanished cuz the tracks stopped getting licensed to big labels, radio stopped playlisting tracks (presumably b/c two token hits were enough) and so on.
