the chorus is nice, the verses not so much, i don't think this song needed rap verses, taeyong's opening ruins the song a bit and marks rapping, can y'all just scream into the mic like taeil? this should have been a unit song with the vocalists only and not the rappers. but overall a very very very good song, like do y'all hear the chorus? hello? haechan? one thing I didn't get though was what the hell the concept was ?? i would have liked for the mystical/vampire components to shine more, also the dance break was terrible. ruined the song. just terrible like what the hell is this? it's messy. very much so. the producers always find some way to ruin a nct 127 song with a dance break. seriously. 7.5/10
itzy - loco
stockholm syndrome is real. for the first like 2 weeks i hated this song but people played it so much i like it now, does that make it a good song? no. some parts are good, mostly yeji and ryujin's parts, lia's parts like that "so dangerous" part really messes with the flow of the slow and was not needed, also SOS for this kitty? girl what are you trying to tell me? also, the random talk rapping parts are not good, this could have been a good song if there was a different producer and itzy were not singing this song. people will say that's mean but it's really not, I find sometimes the girls vocals sometimes don't fit the parts at all. 5/10
stray kids - thunderous
firstly changbin opening this song is terrible. it sort of makes this song sound bad right off the bat, it's just not good overall, remember kids, just because something is catchy does not make it a good song. Bang Chan has re used the same exact stray kids loud formula for this song, i always find stray kids have the coolest concepts with the worst title tracks, like JYP (or 3racha in this case) just really don't want to change their sound at all. and it is really ruining their likability as a group. it's a forgettable song in general. 4/10 the album is very good tho, domino and cheese really could have been title tracks instead of boring thunderous.
first off let me just say s.coups looks very hot in the thumbnail, the song? it's alright. it's not making me want to listen to it over and over again, it's like itzy's loco, you hate (or in svt's case, like it but don't listen to it again) on the first listen and forget about it for 3 weeks then you hear it in a kpop video and your hooked. it's not bad but that DK dude's voice (is his name DK? idk the guy with the deep raspy voice) should have just sung and not used that irritating deep voice. overall it's good. not really my style but I see myself Stockholm syndroming myself into liking it. 6/10
let me just say that IU really wants to set herself up for failure by releasing these snooze fests at 8pm (dont you wanna make money and chart? I don't get her reasoning for releasing music when people are slumped in bed asleep...) strawberry moon isn't bad but it isn't an interesting ballad at all. she needs to really stop singing ballads and just ACT. eight was a more interesting ballad then this. it's okay, like, listening to it while i'm studying okay but never listen to it outside of studying. the one part before the chorus (i think) is the only catchy part and enjoyable part. it's not bad, but to be honest I have heard 20 other middle aged kpop women release this ballad before. the chorus is a huge letdown. come on IU try to sound happy for once. 4/10 also very boring music video.
enhypen - tamed-dashed
is it good? it's hybe standards...just dry. it's okay but like what is it doing for me? i don't really like their sound to be honest, you know what this song sounds like? it sounds like a 3 listen ONLY song. like ,I like it for 1 day and I listen to to it over and over again and then one day I realize this is the most terrible song to ever be released. it's catchy...not really. I don't know but their sound, like all their title tracks all sound the same to me. is this and that dance tamed? what is it called? drunk daze ooooh... they both sound the exact same??? like given taken is the same exact song as this? just like bts, they are releasing the same music over and over again....? I don't understand the concept either like are they being bitten by invisible vampires like i'm really lost. 5/10 every song they release or every TT is just mediocre?? even the members are mediocore like c'mon now. engenes hype them up to much.
let me be real. aespa have mediocre songs. yeah. y'all will drag me in your head all you want but who is bumping to next level right now? their songs sound good for 1 day then i'm over them. yes i am a my but imma be honest savage was a mess, the mv was just them dancing? they're suppose to be killing the black mamba but instead their dancing like wheres the flavor? savage is just like a lot of SM songs released this year, they all sound alike, the same feeling, SM has taken this SM family thing too far now, nct dream and nct 127 release very similiar music, and now aespa's releases sound just like them too. idk how to explain it but you just gotta listen to all those comebacks and then you'll see. giselle's rap in this song...flop. come on. no bars. she has that type of voice where the raps just don't hit. karina should be rapping i'm sorry y'all. savage final review: 4/10 (also im sick of naevis now. like seriously. kwangya is bothering me. all i wanted was girls generation 2.0!! like screw you hyoyeon.
and nothing for lalisa because take a wild guess on how I feel about that song. also ignore mistakes i'm not editing this. say lalisa love me lalis- FLOP.
) but I wish that
