The Top 50 K-Pop Songs of 2015 (Day One: 50-41)

Posted on July 12, 2021 by Nick • 23 Comments

This week, we’re journeying back half a decade to look at K-pop’s best releases of 2015! 2015 was a prime year for K-pop. It saw the return of industry royalty, as Bigbang blitzed the market with no less than seven singles. It acted as the launchpad for many of today’s top acts (Twice, Seventeen, GFriend, … Continue reading →

Since the start of The Bias List in January 2016, I’ve always looked back at my three favorite title tracks by K-pop artists each month. Now, it’s time to look even further into the past, one month at a time. And, yes, the top three rankings count toward The Bias List’s personal artist scorecard! Which … Continue reading →

Song Review: HIGH4 – Love Line

Posted on February 28, 2017 by Nick • Leave a comment

The story of HIGH4 is a frustrating one. Debuting in the spring of 2014 with a highly successful duet with soloist IU, the group seemed to be on the right track from the very first step. But that song ended up being more about IU than them, and was followed by a series of disparate … Continue reading →

Song Review: HIGH4 20 – HookGa (ft. Hwasa of Mamamoo)

Earlier this year, I picked HIGH4 as the most underrated boy group in k-pop. I really root for them, and I was thrilled to see their Makestar crowdfunding campaign become such a big success. But with this said, I have no idea what they’re doing with this HIGH4 20 sub-unit. The duo is composed of rappers … Continue reading →

Top Five Most Underrated K-Pop Rookie Groups (Male)

Posted on January 29, 2016 by Nick • 6 Comments

2015 saw the rise of its fair share of super rookies. Some were predestined to be huge, and some were surprises. But, for every breakout success, there are dozens of groups slowing clawing their way to the top. Some make it, some fail. And some produce music that’s better than the big boys. Let’s take … Continue reading →

Okay, okay. When I say kpop, I mean mostly kpop, because there’s going to be some jpop and cpop in this list as well (some of it in very prominent positions), but “Top 50 K-Pop & J-Pop & C-Pop Songs of 2015” just doesn’t have the same ring to it! The only other criteria for … Continue reading →

HIGH4 – D.O.A. (Dead Or Alive)

Posted on December 20, 2015 by Nick • 5 Comments

Rookie boy group HIGH4 have had the most confusing roll-out plan. From what I’ve seen, the rookies that end up with the most success are those who develop an identity quickly and ride the formula out until they’re big enough to experiment a bit. HIGH4 have done the complete opposite, moving from a successful indie duet … Continue reading →
