Best dance-pop songs of the 2010s
Streaming rewrote every incentive underneath a record: its length, its release date, whether it needed a single at all. Trap production became pop's default rhythm, and a lot of the decade's best artists arrived through a laptop rather than a label.
Songs from the dance-pop albums of the 2010s, ordered by their own ratings rather than the record's.
