Well...I guess "Hung Up" is winning then. Good song, but the fact that it beat the song that is the majority of the reason it's good at all is hilarious.

That was a close one! Literally lol omg. "Hung Up" is a total jam and I'm thrilled it was able to come out on top. I'm still just not a Kendrick Lamar fan. I LOVE "King Kunta" and "HUMBLE" is also a jam, but this "Wesley's Theory" song did nothing for me whatsoever.

So many fans of every niiigggaaa is a star... 🧐
But funny that it literally came down to a 1-point difference considering how much rap hate-ranking occurs in these.

Imo Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! should’ve beat Hung Up but oh well
(Also would’ve been fine with any of these songs beating it tbh)

Oh thank God. That was close. Madge deserved! "Hung Up" is a whole iconic ass BOP. Love the ABBA song and it's kinda funny they were in this round together, but Madonna's is the better song imo.

I generally try to put major samples in the same round. Other matchups of songs and songs they sampled in this tournament #6 Everyday People vs #19 People Everyday #9 Big Poppa vs #13 Between The Sheets #14 Mo Money, Mo Problems vs #7 I'm Coming Out #11 Who Am I? (What's My Name?) vs #18 Atomic Dog #5 Gossip Folks vs #20 Double Dutch Bus #7 The Rain vs #8 I Can't Stand The Rain #5 Money Trees vs #17 Silver Soul #10 Kerosene vs #18 Feel Alright #1 Hung Up vs #3 Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) Exceptions are if the sample is fairly small like with "The World Is Yours" sampled in "Dead Presidents II"... or if the song being sampled is pretty obscure and wouldn't stand much of a chance like with "Every N***** Is A Star" sampled in "Wesley's Theory".

hung up has grown on me recently, i definitely prefer it to gimme gimme gimme at this point
would've preferred to see kendrick or outkast (daos pt1 is probably my favourite song from them) but it's cool that they did so well regardless
