When I started this blog back in 2020 (wow it's been 5 years already), my music taste and playlists essentially consisted of only K-pop with a few J-pop songs sprinkled in. And between 2020 and mid 2022 that remained mostly the same—though with a notable increase in the number of J-pop songs as a result … Continue reading Top 100 Favourite Songs of 2025 (honourable mentions)
There are few things in this world that go together worse than oil and water. One of those is me and posting consistently. The other-similarly-is Blackpink and releasing music consistently.

It's not a good song at all and is unlikely … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: BLACKPINK – Shut Down

Casual fans of the genre often bend to the loud, often addicting presentation of these tracks but those more jaded fans such as myself usually find them unpleasant … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: BLACKPINK – Pink Venom

This is something that lends very well to solo ventures and much like how member Jennie debuted back in late 2018 with, Rosé has graced us with her own solo venture … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: On The Ground – Rosé (BLACKPINK)
