The New York Times mentions NCT 127's 'Sticker' and Aespa's 'Savage' as one of the best POP albums of 2021, the only two Kpop albums on the list.

Loved Savage as an album minus "Savage".

Sticker is not my favorite NCT album but Lemonade, Focus, Magic Carpet Ride, and Breakfast are definitely new NCT faves of mine.

Favorite and Pilot are amazing.

Both very solid albums, this is nice

Quote from the101

There’s no blurb on those two albums. There are blurbs on their top 10s and t then a list of their other 15-20 faves. I have a NY Times subscription - I’m searching the site to see if there was a past review I missed.

EDITED TO ADD: I just checked. No longer review.

You have a NY Times subscription, how fancy!

Sticker really is a great album, no lies!

Nice- you can rely on Jon Caramanica/NY times popcast team to recognise good music!.

Both albums are in my personal top 10 of the year.
