‘Tis the season for yearly recap lists! If you missed our Top 30 Albums of 2016, feel free to correct your life here.

But that’s albums. Let’s talk songs.

For the past few years, I’ve teamed with my boys at YouKnowIGotSoul.com to compile a list of the 100 best R&B songs that were released over the course of 12 months. For the next few days, we’ll reveal a new back of 10 songs as we make our way to the top spot.

Tom and Kyle of YKIGS, along with yours truly, each submitted a list of 100 of our favorite songs released between December 2015 and November 2016. We compared notes, fiercely debated placement, and the results are what you’ll see below.
