During her stint on Produce 101 and resulting group IOI, Kim Sejeong always stood out to me as one of the more interesting members. While she has an incredible voice, it was her undeniable charisma and ability to hook you immediately that really transformed her into a bonafide star. And while her own group Gugudan … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Plant – Kim Sejeong
Eyedi has always been a weird artist for me to properly assess. Her brand of psychedelic lo-fi synth-pop is completely unique within the K-pop landscape, and this often results in a number of singles that are either absolute knockouts, or complete let downs. Last years hypnotic &new luckily fell into the former category, providing one … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: J.us.T – Eyedi
Although I’ll primarily be reviewing singles, there are some albums that are too influential or strong to not cover. In this segment, I will be spotlighting those standout albums and giving my thoughts on each and every track In honour of Loona's first win, I though I would it would only be appropriate to have a … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: LOOΠΔ – [#]
Almost a year on from their last song, the fun latin inspired Loca, FAVORITE are back with a new single in the form of Lie (또 LIE). Although not much of a fan of their previous effort, I went into this track with utmost optimism. This is due to the track being an Ollounder/ Leez … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Lie (또 LIE) – FAVORITE
Other than their less than stellar debut Nom, I've enjoyed pretty much everything Dongkiz have released. The ghostbusters sampling Blockbuster was a great time, and followup Fever was even better. Even January's All I Need Is You, an album track turned single was one of that months stronger songs. After all my favourite group have … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Lupin – DONGKIZ
In just over a year after their debut, ITZY's shadow looms over much of what modern day kpop girl group fare sounds like. This disjointed upbeat pop, made viral early last year by the groups mammoth hit Dalla Dalla, has pretty much come to dominate much of the girl group landscape in the past few … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Wannabe – ITZY
Being billed as Apink's younger brothers, I've taken a keen interest in Victon since their debut back in late 2016. Apink have always been one of my absolute favourite girl groups, and unfortunately, Victon haven't been able to (atleast in my eyes) hit those high expectations set by their seniors. In fact, I didn't really … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Howling – VICTON
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: Love Bomb – fromis_9
AB6IX's '5INALLY' project has unfortunately been one of the most disappointing of the year so far. Although it gave us the phenomenal Rose, Scent, Kiss, the rest of the tracks are as faceless as they can be. And while Break Up is still as generic as they come, it's probably my second favourite track on … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Break Up – Lim Young Min (AB6IX)
One month after the release of My Gravity, Yezi has once again returned to the kpop landscape with the propulsive dance pop of Home. Even though most of her career has prospered on her skills as a rapper, her last few releases have shone greater light on her skills as a vocalist. This may have … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Home – YEZI
