Hands down it has to be "AY BAY BAY" I've never made it past 10 seconds of this song. Its that bad. it sounds like a retarded kid asking for something, and you aren't sure what it is he wants and he's like "AY BAY BAY!" 'what?' "AY BAY BAY!" 'i dont understand what you want' "AY BAY BAY!" and then the thrashing starts. I was in tears the other night in the car as we were listening to this song and we started screaming AY. BAY. BAY! So funny. Even then I don't think we broke the 10 second mark.So honestly I'm not even sure what market this song was made for. Kids? Do kids really like it? I mean, Biz markie sounded semi retarded on 'you got what i need' and we all like it, but then again we all know biz was just clowning around too. who knows.but anyways, thats my vote, hands down, for worst song of the year. I dare you to find something worse than that.

    i can think of plenty from last year - that london bridge was hurtful to my ears. luckily i only heard laffee taffee once or i might have shot myself. not sure i've even heard the ay bay bay cut.... not sure how i am such a busy dj without know some of the basic top 40 crap.

    however, i think i am gonna vote for that gwen stefani night mare, "wind it up."

    I just heard that Soulja Boy "Crank That" thing today and that shit is horrid. "Ay Bay Bay" is decent compared to that.

    Good Call. I might have killed her career. Fergie has seemed to have jacked her demographic.

    ehh. they have their moments. i found myself not turning the channel when "buy u a drink" and "shawty" came on the radio and tpain also sounds okay on that new kanye song. akon's voice can be very irritating, the "sweetest escape" being a prime example, but i like him in some of his supporting roles..i.e., "soul survivor", "boss' life"

    ^^^^ while this is true, I humbly offer my suggestions:

    1. Sean Kingston faux lover's rock chipmunk garbage.

    2. Ay Bay Bay: just when you thought rap could not get any dumber in '07.

    3. Soulja Boy Crank That aka a 5 minute chorus is not a song homie.

    4. Umbarella aka clinical name for cottage cheese discharge.

    5. Party Like a Rockstar: "Hi faux!"

    Fergie, etc. are not really even on my radar. I don't care when "artists" ruin music I don't like anyway, i.e. bullshit pop. But when the biggest rap and R&B singles are this bad it sort of hurts as a rap and R&B fan.

    Damn, somma ya'll dudes really hate contemporary Black music.

    "Ay Bay Bay," "Crank Dat," "Party Like a Rockstar," "Umberella" and any record featuring T-Pain are all hot.

    Sean Kingston is genuinely awful, though.

    How many years do dudes have to go through realizing that they only like about .0002% of all rap that comes out before they stop considering themselves as "rap fans"?

    so you're saying the top five BS rap singles on Clearchannel = 99.9998% of rap?

    how ironic coming from the self-proclaimed king of underground regional rap movements.

    Give me a break. Most legitimate rock fans don't like .0002% of all rock that comes out either.

    Most of the songs listed in this thread so far are annoying at best and utter garbage at worst, and it's pathetic highly amusing that the race card is being played in this discussion, especially considering how weak the songs in question really are. I thought straw men were supposed to be knocked down, not defended.

    In any case, for the benefit of the crap music defenders in this thread, I think the "You're Old" argument holds a lot more weight in this discussion than the "You Don't Like Black Music" defense. I'd be highly suspect of the taste of anyone over 24 who sincerely "gets into" most of the music discussed thus far.

    And yes I know I sound white (with a hairstylist).

    i like that kingston song with the "stand by me "beat. but mostly cuz i like stand by me.

    i dont know what sucks this year. i barely hear that ay bay bay song but thats only cuz i dont really listen to the rap station and ay bay bay hasnt broken into the KOST line up...yet.

    i really hated that chemical romance song that starts off "when i was a young boy". makes me wanna run into hot topic and stage dive on the paul frank section.

    The repetition in Ay Bay Bay drives me crazy and I said it before, Umbrella sounds like the Cranberries to me.

    Right now though, I am loving 'Let It Go' and Ludacris on 'I Get Money'.

    That kingston song is potentially the song of the summer. Im not sayin its on my list but shit was everywhere. And not in a silly Macarena way either.

    Fine time for rockists to go back to routinely hating on rock instead of routinely hating on rap that really has nothing to do with any single aspect of their rockist lifestyles.

    In other words, whether you're old, lame, or actually afraid of real "hard-as-fuck" people...most of y'all obviously don't frequent the places where a song like Ay Bay Bay is most at home.

    Therefore, you never witness such a song in its proper context and are thus ill-equipped to judge it.
