Buried Treasure: IZ*ONE – Hey. Bae. Like It.

Buried Treasure: IZ*ONE – Hey. Bae. Like It.

Posted on April 8, 2019 by Nick • 4 Comments

Most of the time, a k-pop group’s title track is the best song on their album. But, sometimes b-sides deserve recognition too. In the singles-oriented world of K-pop, I want to spotlight some of these buried treasures and give them the props they deserve. I’m not sure I’ve ever loved a Produce 101-related album all … Continue reading →

Song Review: IZ*ONE – Suki to Iwasetai

In a first for the Produce series, girl group IZ*ONE will be promoting actively in both Korea and Japan. As jaded as I’ve become with these survival series, I’ve got to admit that this is a pretty shrewd business decision. The girls have already made a strong mark in Korea with La Vie en Rose … Continue reading →

Song Review: IZ*ONE – La Vie en Rose

As the years have gone on I’ve become a bit disillusioned with the whole Produce 101 format. The show is still an absolute juggernaut, with a far-reaching shadow that touches almost every corner of the K-pop industry. But more often than not, it feels as if the powers-that-be are simply coasting on its popularity to … Continue reading →

2018 in K-POP so far: Risers & Fallers

Posted on July 5, 2018 by Nick • 10 Comments

As part of my 2018 mid-year retrospective, it’s time to look at those songs that either rose or fell as the months have passed. Some songs are slow-burners. Others impress in the moment but fizzle out quickly. And sometimes, a song surpasses expectations to become a cultural phenomenon. This year has actually seen more risers … Continue reading →

Top Three K-Pop Songs of May 2018

Posted on June 1, 2018 by Nick • 11 Comments

At the end of each month, I look back at my three favorite title tracks by k-pop artists. I take my own ratings into account, but there’s a bit of wiggle room as certain songs tend to grow or fade. May 2018 Overall Thoughts All things considered, May was a pretty solid month. It definitely had … Continue reading →

Song Review: Produce 48 – Pick Me (Nekkoya)

Posted on May 11, 2018 by Nick • 7 Comments

In the short time since it’s been on the air, Produce 101 has spawned its own mini-genre of hyperactive, multitracked pop anthem. Whether it’s Midas-T, Ryan S. Jhun, or now Flow Blow in charge of production, the end product sounds roughly the same. Last year’s Season 2 theme set the bar incredibly high, so it’s … Continue reading →
