A Ok-pop act’s title monitor isn’t all the time the very best music on their album, even when it’s the one most individuals will hear. Typically, b-sides deserve recognition too. Within the singles-oriented world of Ok-pop, I need to highlight a few of these buried treasures and provides them the props they deserve.
The Boyz’ dynamic title monitor VVV is a crimson herring on their new album, which has a a lot decrease tempo and is usually crammed with R&B-leaning songs. It makes for a little bit of a disjointed hear, although I get the sense that the members themselves choose the sound of those b-sides over the shiny bombast of their promoted materials.
The one music that appears like an acceptable pair to VVV comes close to the album’s conclusion. Miss Demeanor isn’t as over-the-top large, however its slinky funk sound kicks up vitality to echo a few of their previous titles. This might have simply been part of their Phantasy sequence from 2023. Ethereal vocals glide over a bouncy beat, swerving right into a enjoyable call-and-response hook. To be trustworthy, I needed to search for the Korean phrase “유혹” on this part as a result of at first I believed they had been saying “you hoe, is that so?” which might have been pleasant in its personal method. Alas, the lyrics are extra typical than tongue-in-cheek. That doesn’t cease this from being lots of enjoyable, although!
