2018 was a great year. TBH, I’ll have to disagree with others in 2018 in music. It was a great year for music. It was my favorite year in general. However, I still feel very sad for Avicii’s death. He passed away back in April from suicide. We also had our first 7 exit week this year in almost 3 years. That’s something. In other news, I’ve graduated high school this year and I’m off to college. I’ve also had a prom back in June.
There were a lot of bad songs in 2018. Rap music was really bad. A lot of them made Hits 1 unfortunately. Now, with #1 being the worst, here’s the worst songs of 2018.

My Biggest Whiff Of 2018: Nicki Minaj/Ariana Grande - Bed
Now, let’s To the actual Biggest Whiff. It was on the Hits 1 voting poll, it it never made HitBound or the countdown. It was popular on many platforms as well including the Billboard. To be honest, I don’t like this song but let’s go.
Actual Biggest Whiff Of 2018: Drake - Nice For What
Song That Should’ve Made Big:
Now, there’s one song that I really enjoy, but it’s a shame that it didn’t make it big. It should’ve made it big because I really love this song so much. It’s on Jack’s rankdown and it’s a song that I really loved. Now, here’s a song that should’ve been a Hit.
