Rundown: Yoojung (OnlyOneOf), Sunmi, Fromis 9, B.I & Chuu, HUTA (BTOB), Q6IX
Share Facebook Twitter There was one song that interested me, but just not a great week overall, honestly. ====== Yoojung (OnlyOneOf) – “Begin” [embedded content] Atmospheric and synthy, this was a pleasant listen. It doesn’t jump at you and kinda leaves me uncurious about him as a soloist, but definitely something you can groove along with. —— Fromis 9 – “Stay This Way” [embedded content] The primary appeal resides in it being an upbeat summer track, but either due to technical limitations or bland production choices, it eventually kinda settles for being a soulless knockoff TWICE song. —— B.I & Chuu (LOONA) – “Lullaby” [embedded content] Works as advertised. —— HUTA (BTOB’s Minhyuk) – “BOOM” [embedded content] All I could think about during the “boom shakalaka” parts was the NBA Jam call. —— Q6IX – “Blue Heart” [embedded content] People can hate all they want, but this is unironically like help from LEEZ and Ollounder away from being better than most this year. —— Sunmi – “Heart Burn” [embedded content] The instrumental foundation of this is actually quite nice, and I was actually into it until the chorus hit and I figured out it was basically never going to do anything dynamic or really go anywhere different. That said, it was nice enough and the music video concept of basically being a man killer through time was fun.
