2024 has been serving up an infectious surge of pop tunes that simply refuse to leave my head! It’s a thrilling mix of artists breaking new ground and those making a triumphant return, ensuring there’s something for every music lover out there. These are the tracks I find myself replaying instinctively – tunes perfect for cruising in the car, pumping up at the gym, or even as an energizing soundtrack to my daily commute.

Are you excited to become captivated by this year’s most popular pop tunes? Featuring infectious rhythms and melodies that stick in your mind, these nine songs have been dominating playlists and airwaves, and it’s nearly impossible not to be drawn in!

“Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter

Two tunes from this playlist have probably been lingering in your mind for quite some time now, given they were released around seven months ago. One of these catchy pop numbers is “Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter, which serves as the main track on her sixth studio album titled “Short n’ Sweet“. The line “I’m working late, ’cause I’m a singer.” seems to be stuck in an endless loop inside my brain.

The song was penned by the carpenter, joined by Amy Allen, Julian Bunetta, and Steph Jones. It wasn’t just praised by critics, but also enjoyed commercial success. In fact, it has been nominated for Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance at the upcoming 67th Grammy Awards. This year, it became the empowering summer hit that combined a catchy beat with an uplifting message.

“Nasty” by Tinashe

Tinashe is recognized for crafting tunes with memorable choruses, and she delivered that same appeal with “Nasty.” This particular pop song you might still find yourself humming even though it was released in April. In reality, it leans more towards R&B, but it incorporates pop elements. It serves as the lead track from her seventh studio album titled “Quantum Baby,” and she collaborated with Ricky Reed on its creation.

Just like “Espresso,” the song “Nasty” gained massive popularity on TikTok. It skyrocketed on this social media site, with numerous users integrating the track into viral trends. In truth, it even ranked among the most trending tracks of the summer on TikTok.

”Birds of a Feather” by Billie Eilish

Billie Eilish consistently delivers hits, as evidenced by her latest track “Birds of a Feather,” which she released in May. This song, similar to many of her past ones, has been a massive success among fans and has even earned nominations for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance at the upcoming 67th Grammy Awards.

Furthermore, it’s also the second track to be released from her highly praised third studio album titled “Hit Me Hard and Soft“. Among the many great songs on this album, some of my favorites apart from “Birds of a Feather” include “Wildflower”, “The Greatest”, “Lunch”, and “Blue”.

”Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan

As a gamer, I can’t shake off “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan. Its heartfelt lyrics and infectious tune make every listen feel fresh, even after numerous plays. Since its release in April, this track hasn’t left my playlist – it’s like hearing it for the first time each time I hit play.

I’d be thrilled if a music video emerged for this song, but I’m content without one. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely that we‘ll get one based on Chappell’s updates. Excitingly, the track has been nominated for Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards. We can hardly wait to find out if she’ll be bringing home any trophies!

Here are five more of this year’s most unforgettable pop hits:

  • ”Apt.” by Rosé and Bruno Mars
  • ”Die With A Smile” by Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga
  • “Diet Pepsi” by Addison Rae
  • ”Saturn” by SZA
