[Willow]

yeaah i agree with you

Ayy it was a long time I didn’t enjoy a Kpop song tho

 

[Selfmate]

I gave it a listen and it's not my cup of tea

So, it's not my thing (it's super smooth - but I do love the funk bass), but damn I really admire the hell out of it. The vocal melodies & harmonies are incredible, so unusual yet so good. If I was a more vocal-orientated listener this would be a GOAT-tier kpop title track for me.

Really impressive song.

In conjunction with Itzy's glowup and the really great-sounding Twice teaser, I'm starting to be cautiously optimistic that JYPE has turned the ship around with regards to their A&R and song selection...

It makes me want to go workout, so I signed up for the noon class even though it's -17*F here lol. It really feels like Bae's era, she sounds so lovely both in this and Run for Roses.

After first listen, I don't like it quite as much as Run for Roses or Sonar, but I still like the energy. Need to check out the rest of the songs!

Finished listening! With a first pass through the songs, I think my ranking is currently:
1. Run for Roses
2. Passionfruit
3. Sonar (Breaker)
4. XOXO
5. Dash
6. Boom
7. Break the Wall


Passionfruit is my pleasant surprise new song! I really liked it, it's so refreshing.


Nothing's wrong with Break the Wall, but I don't remember anything about it even after just finishing it, so... bottom of the ranking it goes. For Boom, I think I like the chorus more than the verses. "tick tick boom!" is so fun, but the rest of the song... IDK.

My mind might change as I listen to it more, but right now, I'm pretty pleased.

I looped Dash just to make sense of it (the bit just before the second proper chorus when the singer slows down is insane, wtf), and... It grew on me so much, despite my hatred of jazz and rnb! It's really good.


But then!

I listened to the album.
Friends, it's amazing.
Legit one of the best k-pop releases I've ever heard. Every song hits the spot for me. Break the Wall is a bit generic, and Passionfruit sounds a bit Newsjeansy (but I like it better!), but all the other tracks are so idiosyncratic. I think old-heads would really like it, it's a really quintessentially k-pop album, far away from what you would hear in the west. You can trace a straight line from f(x) to this stuff. Love it, love it.
