Top 5 Pop Songs of 2016


2016 was an awesome year in music history. Everyone from casual listeners to music buffs were clearly entertained. Beyonce and Justin Timberlake both have demonstrated why they are still on top of the pop charts. On this special day, I will countdown my top 5 favorite pop songs this year. Enjoy!


5. 24 K Magic By: Bruno Mars

When I first heard this song, I didn’t like it that much. However, something magical happened the second time. I saw Bruno Mars perform 24 K Magic live on Saturday Night Live and my mind changed instantly. This song easily makes my top list now, because Bruno’s techniques are legendary. Nothing beats the singer’s vocals at their best.

24 K Magic gets the party started better than the Black Eyed Peas Let’s Get It Started. I like it more than Uptown Funk. You see Bruno Mars is a dangerous man with some money in his pocket and you gotta keep up or you’ll get lost. Moreover, the lyrics are exciting.

4. Starboy By: The Weeknd

I can’t say anything bad about the Weeknd. Starboy shows why The Weeknd is a star. Did you catch his Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show performance? He stole the spotlight from supermodels. The Weeknd doesn’t hold anything back. He’s a dangerous man with some money in his pocket too. Check out Bruno Mars Vs. The Weeknd for an interesting comparison.

3. This Is What You Came For By: Calvin Harris Featuring Rihanna

I listen to This Is What You Came For every other day because Calvin Harris generates electric music. You need this celebrity like you need electricity. Boldly, I dare say that Calvin Harris is a modern day Elton John. Plus, his collaborations are always genius. Calvin finds the right vocals and mixes it with the right instruments. His calculations are never off a fraction.

2. Work By: Rihanna Featuring Drake

Does everybody love listening to Work By: Rihanna or what? The repetition, the beat, and the rhythm are 3 things that make this song worth it’s weight in gold. It is a priceless masterpiece of a song. Rihanna is obviously one of my favorite pop singers. And this is my favorite song by her. Rihanna is someone else I can’t speak a bad word about. Work is amazing!

1. Perfect Illusion By: Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga earns the number one spot on my countdown. Perfect Illusion came out at the perfect time. Gaga has shown throughout the years she isn’t a one hit wonder. What is more, Perfect Illusion broke the Internet. Apparently, YouTube crashed as a result of this video’s release. I choose Perfect Illusion By: Lady Gaga because the song has a certain intrinsic value. Only Lady Gaga could do it.

Honorable Mentions: Formation By: Beyonce and Can’t Stop the Feeling By: Justin Timberlake


This concludes my top 5 pop songs of 2016. What are yours?
