Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
A relatively slow week in terms of big name releases, but we always have N.O.M.
======
T1419 – “Run Up”
The Japanese debut of a group I have yet to even moderately like anything by, and that doesn’t change here.
——
SKY-HI (Feat. Stray Kids’ 3RACHA) – “JUST BREATHE”
A collab that interested me greatly … wasted.
The parts where there’s actually rapping has potential, but everything else is just not good.
——
Billlie – “Ginga Minga Yo”
Song choruses these days are like “no melodies, just vibes”.
——
Salem Ilese (Feat. TXT’s Taehyun & Yeonjun + Alan Walker) – “PS5”
Sex is temporary, gaming is forever.
Cute for what it is, honestly.
——
CRAXY – “Dance With God”
These hype girl crush sounds are doing the opposite of standing out, ironically. No idea what it sounds like already.
——
Solji (EXID) – “Fade Away”
Song already in the process of doing just that in my memories.
——
Sorn – “Sharp Objects”
This is a pleasant surprise in terms of direction for her music. It’s not in the upper echelon of uptempo, retro efforts, but it’s certainly on that path.
——
N.O.M – “LOOK”
Tailor-made for the club, honestly. Sounds like something they would use in a movie where the antagonist is doing coke in the VIP room while the assassin protagonist makes his way through the crowded club of dancing, shooting random baddies looking for him.
