** The segment of his number one pick, "GUMMO" by 6ix9ine, isn't much better. Sean expresses his disappointment that the American public not only popularized an artist who has been charged for the "use of a child in a sexual performance", but also through a song that contains a lyric where he alludes to the charges.
--> '''Sean''': And the reason he's proud of it is because he knows that those accusations are the only reason anybody knows about him in the first place. As far as he's concerned, this is what made him famous, so he keeps going down that road, it should keep paying off.\\
[...]\\
He's not shying away from what he did, he's playing into it and using it to strengthen his image. As far as 6ix9ine is concerned, [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity being outed as a child molester was nothing but a great branding opportunity for him]]. And the worst part of all of this is that not only does he think of it that way, but so does the music industry. This guy now has 4 Top 40 hits to his name, he's collaborated with big names such as Music/KanyeWest, Music/YoungThug and Music/NickiMinaj and he's just released a proper studio album. And this isn't a Music/RKelly situation where he's been involved in the music industry for years before the accusations went public, this is a guy who screwed around with a 13-year-old, who makes references to the fact he screwed around with a 13-year-old, who is accepted into the music industry because he's popular because he made songs where he references the fact that he screwed around with a 13-year-old. And when you've gotten to the point where you're defending a ''documented pedophile who wears that label as a badge of honor'', you've really got to take a good hard look in the mirror and seriously question what it is you stand for.

--> '''Sean''': This song essentially turned the entire world into an echo chamber of the darkest and scariest thoughts that I have ever had. Ever time that I've heard that chorus, I was brought back to that terrible, ''terrible'' place that I was desperately trying to forget. That, above anything else, was what solidified this song as my least favorite song not just of 2017, but of all time.

* Sean's reasoning on why "1-800-273-8255" is his least favorite song of all time. When the song was initially popular in 2017, he was in a very badly depressed state to the point that he admitted to calling the hotline the song was named after. At the same time after Logic's performance of the song at the [=VMAs=], it got enough airplay for it to peak at #3 on the Hot 100. As a result, Sean ended up hearing the song anywhere that had a radio playing, reminding him to his own depression.
