kpop

omg Blackpink's new song Sour candy is coming out this friday along with lady gaga on her new album!!! I'm so excited!
YG also announced they are going to have a comeback in june so I'm pumped! I do think they should have more comebacks than once per year though ;;
*also loving Hwasa's OST song "orbit" and IU's new song "eight"!!
THANK YOU MY GOD NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT BP'S EXISTENCE AND IT'S SAD!!!
 
I use to be a really big Kpop fan but now I grew out of it after finding out how they treat the artists.
 
Who is excited for Irene and Seulgi sub unit debut???? 🥺 They're my faves and I'm absolutely stoked. Ever since I saw their video of Be Natural when they were rookies I've been wishing so hard for a sub unit 😭😭😭😭 I hope I can managed to fit their mini album (both ver) to my buy list.

ME AHJSDJ they're both my biases (--actually everyone is lmao) whenever I see someone mention 'be natural' I can only hear taeyong's "booming system up up ty track ty track"

AGSHJSJA I totally forgot about Taeyong's existance in the song. I thought it was unnecessary lol.
 
kpop twitter is so tiring & toxic
but on the bright side, the kcon concert this year is free & being streamed on youtube :)
loona (my ult group) is in the lineup and im so excited omg
 
I love the clothes and aesthetic of most of the groups, but I cannot enjoy the music. I keep trying and have had multiple people recommend specific songs for me to listen to in order to try and hook me in. And I am willing and ready to be hooked, too lol but nothing I have heard has grabbed me. I suppose I should just be glad I haven't found myself embroiled into another fandom, I've got plenty others that are distracting me from my responsibilities.
 
sour candy sounds so similar?? but i love it sm;; might consider stanning again once yg learns how to be a decent human being
 
Used to like it when I was growing up since growing up in an Asian household in North America there wasn't a lot of mainstream Asian media in the west at the time. Now I kinda don't like it as much because the fanbase is awfully obnoxious especially on Twitter. It kinda ruined it for me >0>

what kinds of genres do you gravitate the most to? there’s lots of songs/groups that are heavily inspired by other styles. maybe that can help you get into it more??

I mean, I like a lot of genres - but I'm a big fan of jazz, like Dave Brubeck and John Coltrane. I also really like 'popular' music with jazz sensibilities like Steely Dan, and Joni Mitchell. I also like alt rock bands like Wilco, The Smiths, and Pearl Jam. Plus I'm a big fan of blues music.

If you can recommend a song based on that mess I just provided then I'll definitely give it a listen lol

wow that’s really tough LOL. the songs i’ve picked are from soloists since i think they offer a bit more variety.

jazz inspired songs that i can list from the top of my head are:

iu - the red shoes (i believe her whole modern times album might have been inspired by jazz)

jonghyun - happy birthday

as for an alternative sound, i recommend indie bands and not necessarily kpop artists. eg. parasol or the black skirts.

bonus: the only boy group to successfully pull off a heavy rock sound imo
 
been listening to a lot of loona lately, really like them a lot now! prob more than twice (still love twice though) i have a hard time getting into kpop groups so i was pleasantly surprised, can't believe they aren't more popular!
