Despite its many controversies in its home country of Korea, the Produce franchise has blossomed in neighbouring countries China and Japan. JO1 are the product of the first Japanese season of the show and debuted with the rather generic Infinity. It was a track that didn't do much to excite but with the groups two … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: OH-EH-OH – JO1
Although I love them dearly, TXT's 2020 output has been less than stellar. Title track Can't You See Me has only gotten more forgettable with time and the less said about Puma the better. I loved their debut year work but it almost seemed like the group were going down a route that just didn't … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Everlasting Shine – TXT
I had literally no expectations coming into this pre-release but it still managed to underwhelm me. As many could tell by reading my scathing review of their last comeback, I’m not the biggest fan of Blackpink. Their early material was pretty strong but ever since 2018’s megahit Ddu Du Ddu Du, I’ve felt a very obvious … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Ice Cream (with Selena Gomez) – Blackpink
With the burgeoning growth of K-pop in its current state, many newer fans are unaware of many of the genres past classics. That’s why every week I will be taking a look back at some of K-pop’s most exciting and iconic tracks that were released before the conception of this blog to shed some light on this … Continue reading Retro Rewind: Flash – X1
KARD's transition to a more harder edged sound has so far yielded some less than impressive results. Bomb Bomb and Dumb Litty were two of my least favourite tracks from last year and while it has since grown on me, Red Moon wasn't much better. And while I understand that this is more an issue … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Gunshot – KARD
Despite being one of my favourite groups, I've found Seventeen's recent material to be quite disappointing. Apart from last years excellent Hit, I don't think I've really loved a Seventeen song since 2018's Call! Call! Call!. This has left me falling out of love with a group that once challenged for a spot at the … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: 24H – SEVENTEEN
If I had to put it bluntly, I've been underwhelmed by almost every single post X1 comeback. All the boys have the potential to really hit big but the material they've chosen or been given has just not made good use of their talents. Of the many that we've gotten over the course of the … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: No More – Kim Yohan
Despite the amount of hype garnered for their debut, Cravity's initial foray into the kpop world was kind of underwhelming. Sure, Break All The Rules has grown on me quite abit but to say that it was what I wanted from the group would be far from the truth. It felt too much like Monsta … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Flame – Cravity
For the past few years, double title tracks have been a dying breed. Although they experienced mass popularity in the early to mid 2010's, they've all but disappeared from the promotional schedules of major groups. It's a choice that would have likely solved many of the rather underwhelming single choices we've seen this year as … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: THANXX – ATEEZ
Rookie group MCND have already perfected one of the key promotional tactics needed for any under the radar rookie group and that is mass promotion. They've really never stopped being out of the public eye and while this doesn't always guarantee success, it's one of the better ways for groups to stay somewhat relevant. And … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: nanana – MCND
