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)

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.

K-POP Monthly Roundup: August 2020
