At the start of 2020, Stray Kids were one of my favourite artists. Off the heels of two of 2019's strongest and most daring singles in the form of Miroh and Side Effects, the group seemed to be moving towards even bigger and better work. And though their commercial success has definitely sky rocketed since … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Stray Kids – Case 143
As someone who's kind of bored with the state of music right now, I've spent most of time either going back and listening to some of my favourite songs of all time or, at least according to last.fm, Taylor Swift (I know I know). And though I never really thought to really put all my … Continue reading Every 10/10 of the Past Five Years (2017 – 2021)

I want to change that and that’s why I’m going to be counting down … Continue reading The 100 Best K-pop B-Sides / Album Tracks of 2020 (25 – 1)

Now that I've counted down my favourite and least favourite K-pop songs of the year, it's finally time to have a look at some of my absolute favourite J-pop songs of the year. Unlike K-pop, which experienced a strong but rather unspectacular year, Japan had an absolutely incredibly year musically. My countdown here is probably … Continue reading The 50 Best J-Pop songs of 2020 (50-26)
It's finally time for me to reveal the top K-pop artists of 2020! Unlike other lists or award shows that determine the top artists of the year on a chart basis, here at Kbopped, we (and by we, I mean myself) like to present our rankings on a more "merit" basis.

When it comes to my personal tastes, I've always believed Stray Kids to be strongest when paired with a more electronic backing. Last year we got the sensational one two punch of Miroh and Side Effects and nothing since has really lived up to them. It's been solid and the abrasive God's Menu remains one … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Back Door – Stray Kids
