It’s impossible to ignore the sample of Too $hort’s “Blow The Whistle” in “Tap In.” It provides the basic groundwork for Saweetie to absolutely go off. Following up on the success from her “My Type” and “ICY GRL” singles, the new queen of samples came through with yet another classic callback in “Tap In,” which has become her latest hit. Saweetie is no stranger to going viral, and she refused to slow down in 2020. With that being said, have a thorough look at our own, taking the time to read each breakdown, as we know you will. True, that certain selections may come at the expense of others will doubtless ruffle a few feathers, but rest assured that no list is definitive.
For now, rest assured that each song included held merit in 2020, whether defining a moment, showcasing dazzling penmanship, or simply going hard. What resonates today may not resonate in one year’s time on the other end, a song that initially flew under the radar now may find new life in the same timeframe. The consumption of music is never stationary. When it came time to collectively arrange the forty best songs of 2020, a shadow loomed overhead. Many of the game’s elite lyricists seemed to collectively agree upon bringing their A-Game, a fact reflected by the rap album nominations by The Grammy Awards of all places.
Thriving platforms like TikTok proved a valuable asset for musicians, with a viral track often going hand-in-hand with a lofty chart placement. Artists rallied to keep momentum with so many facets of their livelihood - namely live performance - derailed by the ongoing pandemic. For 2020, a year damned by so many circumstances, the music was among the high points. But this is tradition, and with every passing year comes a comprehensive ranking of the songs that came to define it.
