It's "United State of Pop 2014 (Do What You Wanna Do)". DJ Earworm's mashups are usually centred around one or two songs and this is no exception: the main two in this track are "Animals" by Maroon and "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift - and to a certain extent, Jason Derulo's "Talk Dirty" - with the other songs built around them.
Keeping consistent with previous years, the criticisms of the song are, to be blunt, utter nonsense. Most - as usual - are based on it "not being as good as before", in particular, not as good as the 2009 release; there were also a few hateful comments about Taylor Swift. I also saw a comment somewhere complaining that it only features American songs; given that DJ Earworm is American and uses songs that were number-one there, this shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Plus, he has created mashups composed of non-US hits.
Trolling aside, there is nothing wrong with "United State of Pop 2014 (Do What You Wanna Do)". It's different to DJ Earworm's previous mashups but isn't variety to be encouraged?
Finally, 2013's version is here, which features a link to 2012's.
