Spare a thought for Stella Donnelly today — she’s one of the artists who just found out that they came very, very close to placing in this year’s Hottest 100.

After crowning Kendrick Lamar the winner of 2017’s Hottest 100 on Saturday, yesterday triple j backed it up by playing all of the songs that placed from number 200 to 101 in this year’s countdown. Perth singer/songwriter Stella Donnelly came in at #102 with ‘Boys Will Be Boys’, her acoustic takedown of sexual assault and victim blaming culture. (Both Stella and her dad took the news well.)

It was Frank Ocean who placed at #101, oh-so-narrowly missing out on the Hottest 100 with his track ‘Chanel’.

Further down the list of the next Hottest 100 were the likes of Vallis Alps, Joyride, Kasabian (who are apparently still releasing music?) and SZA, who somehow didn’t crack the top 100 at all.

Vince Staples made it to #116 with ‘Big Fish’ and Lana Del Rey hit #148 with ‘Love’, while Lorde — who had three songs in the top 100 — also placed at #171 with ‘Sober’, #187 with ‘The Louvre’ and #194 with ‘Supercut’.

See the full list of the songs that placed #200 to #101 in this year’s Hottest 100 below.
