MISC should've been top 3!! I'm appalled!
"Time" slays. "Cry" was boring, but hey..
I expected "Make This Song Cry" to be top 5. A bop!

One of the two tracks remaining from Kimberly's most recent release is the first to depart the Top 5. "Rounds" is an uptempo sex jam bop that details Kimberly's longing to get back to her man after being out on the road away from him so that he she can get her freak on. With this loss, we take out the final bottom 5 rank remaining from anyone's list (a #30 from Troublemaker), as the four songs ahead of this one had all Top 20 ranks or very close to them. On the other hand, it does wipe out a total of six Top 10s, including a #2 from Leo ✔. I was really surprised at how well this one did and it came much further than I ever expected it to. "I be slurrin' I be all off beat Look at the flick of my wrist Look at the shoes on my feet They don't mean nothing If you ain't the one that I'm wakin' up to in the mornin' Kissin' and lovin' and touchin' and keepin' me moanin'"

With back-to-back losses, The People I Used to Know record is our second to be eliminated from the rankdown as "Crazy Like You" follows just behind "Rounds." It was kept out of the Top 3 by nearly 50 points, so it wasn't close to breaking into that threshold, though it stayed comfortably ahead of the rest of the songs that made the Top 10 for most of the submission process. "Crazy Like You" is a song that for its first two-thirds finds Kimberly singing her frustrations out as she confronts her man for driving her to lose her sanity, and then later popping off with her delivering a rapped verse near the end. It fared well in this rankdown and only received a single sub-20 ranking across the board, while scoring seven Top 10s, including a #1 from #LisaRinna. This was also the final song left in the game that lacked multiple #1s. "I hope you get this back times two Hope your kids just as ugly as you Lord forgive me of my sins I can't let the devil win"

Top 3 came down (probably unsurprisingly to most) to her three biggest hits: which one will come out on top? Will it be her debut hit "V.S.O.P."? Its follow-up release "Can't Raise a Man"? Or the lead-off single to her sophomore record "Love 'Em All"?

Let's go ahead and cut this down to our Top 2! We see "Can't Raise a Man," Kimberly's ode to being unable to teach a grown ass man how to act right, fall short and finish in the bronze position. It starts out with an elegant string arrangement and then quickly kicks into a sexy groove, and has one of her best vocals to date imo. This is the song that fully put her on my radar and led me to become a stan. It did exceptionally well in this rankdown, with every poster ranking it at least in their Top 20, and it received multiple #1 placements courtesy of jtd Thee Stallion and Hashtag Pow, and Top 10 ranks from all but four participants. "Try to talk to him, can't get through Every day he's a different dude These are the signs of a grown ass boy Better run for the hills, I'm just trying to keep it real"

"Love 'Em All" is the most iconic K. moment to me! "Crazy Like You" follows.

And the winner is....... "Love 'Em All"! In the end, it wasn't even close. Not only did "Love 'Em All" trounce the competition in such a way to come ahead of the runner-up by over 40 points, but its lowest rank received was a #7, meaning it had an overwhelming support in this rankdown. "V.S.O.P." was no slouch either, with only three ranks outside the Top 10 of its own, and both received three #1 placements a piece. Pulse declares a decisive victory for "Love 'Em All" as the ultimate K. Michelle track! "Why can't they understand Sex is irrelevant Just a game in my head, I'm playing and I'm winning Oh oh I broke another heart today Oh oh and I didn't care I just walked away"
"Warm my bed It's a little cold on your shoulder Mama said I will understand when I'm older In my head Even if you tell me it's over I'll pretend you told me I'm your all"

I don't even mind that Love Em All won, but y'all know this right here is a mess! I love "V.S.O.P." but I've always found it a touch overrated personally, though since I like basically all of K's material, a #17 rank for this actually isn't even 'bad' (like I still do love the song, just not as much as a lot of her other material).

I don't even mind that Love Em All won, but y'all know this right here is a mess! to be honest I had never heard any of these songs prior to doing this rankdown (had never even heard of K. Michelle before). All of these were first time listens and some songs clicked with me and some did not. I thought this one was alright but I didn't care for it as much as others and so it ended up lower as a result. Glad I participated though because it was enjoyable listening to someone new

I love when Pulse actually gets it right!! LEA is a future classic and I’m still upset K. burned so many bridges at radio because that it should’ve been a crossover smash!! Thanks for hosting! .indulgecountry

I'm glad I was able to encourage a lot of posters to do this who were otherwise unfamiliar with her work. She's definitely very underrated as an artist so it's nice to introduce new people to her talent, so I thank you to those of you who did this whether you were a K. Michelle fan previously or had never heard of her before.

I’m not mad at this top 5 at all, though you can put me in the VSOP for #1 camp. It would have topped my list but I like Love Em All too so its all good. Thanks for doing this .indulgecountry
