1. Swimming Pools (Drank)
2. HUMBLE.
3. Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe
4. King Kunta
5. Backseat Freestyle
6. Alright
7. Poetic Justice
8. DNA
9. i
10. LOYALTY.
11. LOVE.
12. The Blacker The Berry

Finishing runner-up is 2017 anthem 'HUMBLE.', the biggest single from Kendrick's latest album. I think this was his first UK Top 10 single too and has become a club staple this year - and it's not hard to see why. Perhaps a little radio-friendly, however this chorus is memorable and the video again was superb. Unquestionably going to be one of those songs which will have high club play in the future and a guaranteed festival anthem and mosh-pit starter.



And the winner is Kendrick's first mainstream single 'Swimming Pools (Drank)'! Perhaps a testament to this song's ability to stand the test of time, it convincingly won this final. With a production that manages to be both laidback and claustrophobic, the introspective lyrics and earworm of a hook instantly made this a fan favourite in 2012 and was the song that really made people begin to take notice of Kendrick Lamar. A worthy winner for me!

Thank You all who voted and participated in discussion, we are open to suggestions for the next artist to receive the 'Least Favourite Single' treatment!

A decent winner even if it's not my personal favourite. I've become much more of a fan of Kendrick as his albums have progressed really.

My personal ranking:
1. HUMBLE.
2. DNA.
3. LOYALTY.
4. King Kunta
5. The Blacker the Berry
6. Alright
7. Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe
8. I
9. Swimming Pools (Drank)
10. Backseat Freestyle
11. Poetic Jusice
12. LOVE.

Thanks for hosting this, great to see these sorts of things happening again in the R&B forum !! wub.gif

Correct song won but a mess of a result elsewhere.

Thank you for hosting this! Craig David singles next?

Cheers for this Hammer, prefer HUMBLE. of the 2 but Drank is great too, reminds me of GTA V.

'Swimming Pools (Drank)' was my preferred winner out of the top 2 so I'm happy with that result! This went well except 'The Blacker The Berry' departing far too early.

I think this will be best around the time his album drops!
