Ever since their debut last year, EPEX and I have had the most bipolar (ironic considering the name of their debut album) of relationships. I absolutely despised debut effort Lock Down but came to adore comeback single Do 4 Me. They were effectively on two sides of the scale, one at the very bottom and … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: EPEX – Anthem Of Teen Spirit

SONG REVIEW: NMIXX – O.O
The debut of a Korean JYP girl group is always an exciting prospect. They're a company that have yet to miss in this particular department, having both a killer current roster and incredibly star studded history. And usually the debut tracks that these acts are introduced with are equally as great as the groups themselves. … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: NMIXX – O.O
SONG REVIEW: On The Ground – Rosé (BLACKPINK)
Despite my personal qualms with Blackpink's music, I've always found the girls to be more appealing as four distinct personalities than as a group. 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)
SONG REVIEW: Fireworks (I’m The One) – ATEEZ
Ever since their debut with the explosive Treasure and experimental Pirate King, ATEEZ have had an incredible, no filler all killer singles run. The triple punch of Wave, Wonderland and Answer remains one of K-pop's all time best and the groups adherance to a bombastic yet heavily melodic sound was one that clicked with me … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Fireworks (I’m The One) – ATEEZ

SONG REVIEW: Forever – aespa
As SM entertainments newest girl group, Aespa have a monolith of expectations to live up to. Their aggressive and instantly memorable debut Black Mamba acted as a strong introduction to the girls and while I personally didn't think much of it, there's no denying its success.

SONG REVIEW: nanana – MCND
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

This all culminates in the release of ''Say My Name'' her first album after leaving Starship Entertainment. Unfortunately, rather than stuff … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Say My Name – Hyolyn
SONG REVIEW: Sacrifice – Han Seungwoo (VICTON)
Since his stint on Produce X 101 and resulting group X1, I have been completely charmed by Han Seungwoo. He singlehandedly got me to pay more attention to Victon's discography and his talent as a musician really shouldn't be underestimated. He reminds me alot of INFINITE's Dongwoo, an idol who can both rap and sing … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Sacrifice – Han Seungwoo (VICTON)
