Now this is a track that I've been wanting to talk about for ages. Ever since the release of its "short" version back in late December, I've been absolutely taken by Shinsei Kamattechan's incredibly unique and daring new single, Boku No Sensou or My War. As the latest opening for arguably the most popular show … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Boku no Sensou (My War) – Shinsei Kamattechan

SONG REVIEW: Bicycle – Chungha
Chunga's first full length studio album has been teased for almost a year now with a number of very strong pre-release singles and alluring teasers. Songs like Stay Tonight and Play saw Chungha at her strongest, which only raised expectations for what could have been one of the most momentous comebacks of the year. Unfortunately, … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Bicycle – Chungha
Retro Rewind: Believe – U-Kiss
With the burgeoning growth of K-pop in its current state, many newer fans are unaware of many of the genres past classics.

RAVE REVIEW: Breathe – Golden Child
While I predominantly cover singles on here, I’ve always been an avid consumer of albums. More often than not, this results in some songs that I adore but others that I detest. As a remedy to this issue, we have Beast Sides! These songs put the Beast in B-side and are either stronger than their … Continue reading RAVE REVIEW: Breathe – Golden Child
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. But as successful as a debut may be, a … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Forever – aespa
SONG REVIEW: Cinema – CIX
Despite debuting with immense promise with the wonderfully slinky and effortlessly cool Movie Star, CIX and I have failed to really connect past that initial effort. I haven't enjoyed any of their albums and neither of their past two lead singles did much for me either. As such, my expectations for Cinema were rather reserved. … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Cinema – CIX
SONG REVIEW: I’m Not Cool – HyunA
Despite her essentially being one of K-pop's all time great figures, I've never had much of a thing for HyunA's own musical output. Her work with 4minute resulted in some stunning tracks but her singles usually fell short. I adore her as a performer and her more vocal driven tracks are a real treat but … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: I’m Not Cool – HyunA
SONG REVIEW: ST – SixTONES
Since debuting in early 2020 with the phenomenal Imitation Rain, SixTONES have been blitzing through a number of releases. A single here, a mini album there and now a full length album less than a year after their debut. And most of the resulting music has been great. Both Navigator and New Era built upon … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: ST – SixTONES
SONG REVIEW: Odd Eye – Dreamcatcher
Although I already enjoyed much of their musical output beforehand, 2020 was the year where Dreamcatcher truly became one of my favourite K-pop groups. The more electronic influences truly opened a new door for the group and tracks like Scream and Boca were the perfect vessel to channel that new energy. And so coming off … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Odd Eye – Dreamcatcher

As one of YG entertainments most talented and best known rappers, Bobby has been a household name for a while now.
