Dignity debuted final summer season with a enjoyable new jack swing observe and an excellent higher b-side that recalled the perfect of late-second-gen group Block B, touchdown them on two of my year-end countdowns. However like many rookie teams from small businesses, they swiftly disappeared after that. Virtually a 12 months later, they’ve lastly returned with new single SWEET2TH. Sadly, the tune struggles to copy their previous glories.
I’ll by no means say no to a shiny boy group observe in Ok-pop, largely as a result of this type is usually accompanied by robust melody. SWEET2TH boasts all the mandatory power for this idea however devolves into the sort of chant-heavy hook that immediately yanks me from a tune’s momentum. This refrain is instantly adopted by a extra melodic phase, however even right here the tune doesn’t stretch itself sufficient. This strategy continues into the verses, together with an energy-killing second verse shift. General, SWEET2TH is innocent fluff however will simply get misplaced amongst stronger releases and definitely pales compared to their debut.
