Posted January 2Jan 2 As always, I want this to be a celebration of the very best Pop of 2024. You can choose anything that was released in 2024... as long as it is a POP release. So singles, album tracks, special releases etc... as long as it has a "Released in *insert month* 2024" release date. It's fair game. I will be using guidance from the placings of artists within these genre forums, so if their thread is located in any of the other genre forums, then there is a high chance it won't be included. However, I do appreciate some artists do have some "pop" moments amongst their albums so I won't be TOO strict, but please stick to as pop as you can possibly get. An example of that could be (I'll use last year as an example) Nothing But Thieves 'Dead Club City' album is located in the Indie, Rock & Alternative forum (rightfully so) but they ended up WINNING with 'Welcome To the DCC' - a song from that album - as it is a synth-pop/rock song, more than it was an indie, rock or alternative one. So that kinda thing I won't mind. Ultimately though, I will have the final say. I want this to be a celebration of the best pop releases of the year. YOUR favourites. Try not to go for something just coz you think it will win this contest. Go for something you have LOVED from this year. If someone takes your artist first, I will be asking for your next choice. If your chosen artist is a featured artist and is being used by someone else (as a solo artist or vice-versa), you will be asked to reconfirm with a different artist. In the rare occurrence of covers, samples, interpolations etc... I don't mind them being entered, but if someone else confirms with a track that has also used that same track, then you will be asked to reconfirm. All the lengthy parts are out the way here is the only other rule: An artist with an "Artist Forum" here on Buzzjack CANNOT be entered. Here is the FULL list of those with Artist Forums: - Ariana Grande - Britney Spears - Charli xcx - Dua Lipa - Girls Aloud (or Solo) - Katy Perry - Kylie Minogue (or Dannii appaz lmaoooo) - Lady Gaga - Little Mix (or Solo) - Madonna - One Direction (or Solo) - P!nk - Rihanna - RuPaul (or the Drag Stars from the show) - S Club (any variation - 7, Juniors/8) - Spice Girls (or Solo) - STEPS (or Solo) - Sugababes (or Solo) - Take That (or Solo; inc Robbie) - Taylor Swift Basically, this contest is predominantly for the pop hoes amongst us! Whether it was a chart hit or not doesn't matter. WE'RE CELEBRATING ALL (well, most - sorry Swifties, Huns, Monsters, BRATs and whatever Dua's fans are called </3) THINGS POP FROM THIS YEAR. Exciting times! Remember... don't just choose a song coz you think it'll win, choose coz you LOVE it! - Confirm your entries by clicking HERE - Confirmations are open for ONE WEEK and will close Thursday, 9th January 2025 @ 23:59 (GMT) - Entries are a first come, first served basis. If you have an artist or a song clash, then you will be asked to reconfirm with a new artist or song. LETS CELEBRATE THE POP BEAUTY OF 2024!

January 2Jan 2 Author ...I feel like I'm kinda cheating by sending this but I truly think it was one of the best releases this yearThere is NO "cheating" for this contest! It's why I love it. As long as you stick within the guidelines, any entry goes. We are here to celebrate the best pop releases of the year. Whether people score certain songs less due to them being more well known or whatever, I obviously have no control over that, so that's kind of a bit of a risk in itself for you!
