BLACKPINK - Lovesick Girls
80

in conclusion: let the pinks write and produce more their songs because this is honestly one of their best songs ever and it's everything blinks were waiting for

i-dle - I trust
70

u know i only need Soojin to say 사랑해 to be happy

Joji - Run
80

I fell in love with this song at the first listen, I don't know at it is about it that is just so great, the guitar melody that goes throughout the song is so good and the guitar solo just amplifies how good it already is. His vocals are on point, it feels fragile yet powerful.

Joji - Sanctuary
80

since its release, this song never fails to amaze me

Sophie Cates - all my boyfriends
70

It's really cute and enjoyable, the production isn't mind-blowing but still good and fun.

EVERGLOW - -77.82X-78.29
82

Well, wow I wasn't ready for this at all, this project is very youthful, EVERGLOW are definitely making their mark despite debuting last year and deserve to be big.

The title track "LA DI DA" is absolutely stunning, like really amazing. Synthpop is making a comeback even in kpop and I'm here for it. The song is really entertaining and not boring. Even the bridge brings a nice change without falling into the classic half-time dance break that we're used to ( ITZY (love them) and ... read more

Red Velvet - Perfect Velvet
77

It's a great album that feels just like them and they manage to try new stuff without letting go of their identity and it's appreciable.

The first 3 songs are actually my 3 favs from the album, maybe it's because they are more energetic, I don't know.

The only 2 tracks that I didn't like as much are "Second Date" and "Attaboy", while I appreciate the change it brings to the project, I feel like these 2 could have been better. I don't hate them of course, they're still ... read more

Porridge Radio & Lala Lala - Good For You
73

i played this song so much time while walking next to fields with my dog and i must say that it's a great feeling

​interrogación ​amor - ​vómito y mariposas
72

Long story short, I discovered Javier (singer) back in 2017 on twitter thanks to a drawing he made inspired by Halsey's 'hopeless fountain kingdom', I never stopped following his work since then.

When he announced he joined a band and released his first single "8,2 segundos" in February (2020) I was so happy to see him be a part of something new and exciting. Over the next few months, 3 other songs dropped and each made me like the band even more. So when I heard their debut album ... read more

NIKI - Moonchild
75

'MOONCHILD' is a great album and you can't change my mind.

It feels intimate yet wide, dark but not too much, just the way it should. I really appreciate the vibe she went for with this project. She takes you to another place and let you dive in the world she created, she showed that she is a good singer, songwriter and rapper and I'm happy I got to see all of it.
I like the idea behind the different chapter but maybe more could have been done into making each one sounds more different (they ... read more

ヒグチアイ [Ai Higuchi] - 樋口愛 (Higuchi Ai)
80

i didn't know a piano and a heavy saturated electric guitar could go so well together

i-dle - I made
67

it's is a nice follow up to "I am", it sounds a bit different and I like them for this. my only question is, where did Shuhua's lines go?????

EVERGLOW - ARRIVAL OF EVERGLOW
72

I think "Moon" and "Bon Bon Chocolat" are good but why does "D+1" sound the way it does? is this a song from the soundtrack of a bad cliché romance movie?

ITZY - IT'z ICY
65

It's a very fun and energetic EP and good follow up to 'IT'z DIFFERENT', I don't really the point of putting these 2 remixes here, and I think they could have put 2 new songs instead but ok.
To me "ICY" really stands out, it's super energetic, full of sound and has some iconic line. It is the ITZY blueprint for me.
"Cherry" is great as well, it keeps the same energetic sounds and adds some badass attitude to it which fits them.
I didn't like "IT'z SUMMER" as much, ... read more

ITZY - IT'z Different
64

I think "IT'z Different" introduces us to the sound ITZY will constantly try to revisit and reshape in a nice way and I think we should at least give it that. It's only 2 songs but I think it's enough to make us interested in what they have. It doesn't feel as polished as I wish and feels a bit unfinished at some moments but it's honestly fine for me and as a debut as well. It's 2 fun songs.

BIBI - LISTEN 035 신경쓰여 (Restless)
82

i like this one so much, her voice and the beat is so calming, it's so great to listen to omg

BIBI - 자국 (Step?)
70

It's a very nice following to "BINU", slow chill r&b. I love her voice and she can both sing and rap so well, what do you want more?

BIBI - 비누 (BINU)
70

I think it's a great debut, honestly, it's so sweet and has some nice catchy lyrics.

BLACKPINK & Selena Gomez - Ice Cream
55

When coming here I was expecting to see a low score so I'm not surprised. I have a lot to say about it because there's a lot to say about it. At this point, I haven't read any reviews yet because I'm highly scared of what I'll read there so I've only had the opinion of twitter blinks and it's clear that we didn't all like the song as much as we hoped.

I'm not sure where to start so let's talk start with what I've seen the most complaints about, the line distribution. Jisoo got the least ... read more

"@ShadeRD I have accepted the "no-return" of Soojin (her solo debut made it clear), but still I find that they were playing with the fans by hinting at her. I'm not annoyed at them releasing those songs, as it does make sense and every group ends up doing it. It's more about how it's done. But again, I have zero idea of the real situation, what they're allowed to do or not and the making process. Idk if what seems like Soojin's references are intentional or not. I repeat myself but I guess I needed to let that out last night and then thought about it again haha! In conclusion: I don't know anything about the situation and therefore shouldn't assume anything either, because then I'm just creating conspiracy theories, which I deeply hate! 2/2"

"@ShadeRD You're right it's probably just about publishing, performance's rights. While it's true many other groups did that, but they do it in the following months or so, and songs are often put at the end of another album, or without promo. To me it's a little weird that it's done now and not earlier, and I struggle with the way they used her name/image for marketing strategy (it looks like that did at least). But we have no idea of what happens behind the scenes and some stuff take times and are beyond our understanding. In the end we're here overanalyzing something far more complex than it seems. As listeners we only see the outcome and not everything that comes before which can make up come up with wrong interpretation. 1/2"
