The past year hasn't been the kindest for (G)I-DLE.

(G)-idle released one of my least favourite songs of the year with the incredibly grating Oh My God. An unpopular opinion for sure but one that I'll stand by. The song felt like a culmination of all my gripes about (g)-idle in one momentum killing package. It was an example of style over substance and … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Dumdi Dumdi – (G)-idle
