clunky, doesn't offer much. doja's verse was solid, but this remix doesn't give enough. enjoy that #1, though, sza.
however, i feel like album simply does not offer enough. to start, all but the last two the songs fail to clock in three minutes of run-time, and are quite short. this doesn't allow the songs to flourish at all, and they end before they can even begin.

the b-side, tonari... probably the ... read more
solid kpop release! the girls have good potential, good vocals, good dancing capabilities, and also are actively involved in the making of this music. rest easy jieun, we miss you!
still, pretty damn good.
the pitched intro that fades into a beautiful soft first verse where she sounds better than she ever has before... and then the sudden cut into the chorus, followed by a second verse that's much heavier. the second chorus becomes even more explosive and the song all climaxes at the end into an almost sensory overload and ends off with what is a clear transition into the upcoming ... read more
