12

The Offspring 

3 Awesomes /10 tot = 30.0%

2 greats/10 tot = 20.0%

2 good-ish/10 tot = 20.0%

70.0% output is good & up

Supercharged is no joke. Every track is punchy and upbeat. Energetic, bitter, 

adamant. Listen before a fight (or before conquering some big goal).

11

Sum 41

6 Awesomes /20 tot = 30.0%

4 greats/20 tot = 20.0%

8 good-ish/20 tot = 40.0%

90.0% output is good & up

Confident, Resolute, told ya so, fast, energetic

10

Mean girls 2024 Soundtrack 

4 awesome / 13 total = 30.77%

1 great

2 good-ish

53.84% output is good & up

Humorous and sometimes unexpected lyrics (fugly cow). Singing talent! 

Renee Rapp

3 Awesomes /4 tot = 75% of her Mean Girl songs were awesomes

The singing is bananas, funny

9

Taylor swift 

10 Awesomes /31 tot = 32.26%

7 greats

13 good-ish

96.77% output is good & up

Rebellious, introspective, emotional, sad, angry. One of the most elaborate and 

contemplative albums of 2024. I think the complexity was impenetrable for 

some listeners. People who didn’t have context, or didn’t put together the braid, 

might just end up tangled. It’s a IYKYK kinda thing.

8

Dua Lipa

4 Awesomes /11 tot = 36.36% 

For tie-breaker only:  [4 of 15 (11+4 versions) = 26.67%]

2 great versions/15 w/versions = 13.33%

3 goods w/1 being a version

60.0% output is good & up

Catchy, dance. Hitting notes, gallop beat. Though the songs would benefit from 

more complexity and less repetition. 

The album is like this dress: 

 It’s revealing and on-brand. It sparkles, it’s eye-catching, it says “party” but also 

just misses the mark. The dress just. . . hangs. There’s potential, but has this 

ambiguous attribute that you can’t quite put your finger on, but that prohibits it 

from being a stunner.

7

Fletcher

4 Awesomes /11 tot = 36.36%

4 greats/11 tot = 36.36%

3 good-ish

100.0% output is good & up

Synth, drama, beat in backing is fun and adds to vibe, processing, notes! 

Catchy, lots of interest in production.

Compared to her earlier works, the album is lower.  Compared to the field of 

artists, Fletcher still is heads above most. Her story-telling, visual writing, and 

notes are powerful. For the next album, I’d like to see a bit more sass along with 

the technical singing ability Fletcher always brings to the table.

6

Imagine Dragons 

4 awesomes/10 tot = 40.0%

1 great/10 tot = 10.0%

3 good-ish

80.0% output is good & up

Back to their core sound, but elevated with synthesizers, and some well-placed 

auto tune. The stand out for me is the onomatopoeia!

Empowered, strong, unapologetic, sassy, energetic.
