Our dear Underdogg Andy A47 is back with two really nice songs~
Since this cute little mixtape only includes two songs I don’t think a review is neccessary. I’ll just recommend it to you straight away!
Album: – Mixtape – Artist: Andy A47 Year: 2014 Language: Chinese/English Tracklist: 01. M.I.C (是中华圈的炫耀) (feat. Cross Gene’s Casper) 02. MA SEOUL CITY
I already wrote about Andy once, but since I like him so much, I’ll gladly repeat myself for those who haven’t heard of him yet:
Maybe you’ve stumbled across the Korean band Topp Dogg? With the intimidating number of 13 members? Well, in a way there are even more members – they’re called “Underdogg” and form a subunit that joins Topp Dogg once in a while and on certain occasions. And in there, between Jiwon and Hyuntae, we have Andy.
So he’s a sort-of Trainee of Stardom who maybe will or won’t join Topp Dogg? Not quite. Continue reading →
Hello~ Today I’m here to introduce you to a Rap-mixtape. We’re talking about the first Solo-release from Yano, the Maknae of Stardoms’ huge boyband Topp Dogg. Among 12 other members and the 3 other rappers he probably doesn’t particularly stand out to some people. Now the cute 19 year-old presents us his own personal mixtape to point out his own style.
Ya know about him? Most of you probably haven’t yet. This cute English catchphrase describes the origin of his artist name – Surely an improvement compared to his pre-debut name “Snoopy Swaggy”. …I’m not even going to comment this name any further. Now add his overly cute face and he probably looses all credibility as a rapper. Or does he? I would say: Surprisingly not. Out of all his bandcolleagues he has the most “badass” feeling to him. His voice is surprisingly deep and rough, his flow very fast and his lyrics are usually the most biting. So let’s see what kind of style he likes to pursue when void of the inevitable boundaries that is Topp Dogg.
Woooh, I’m back! Sorta. I’m using an old netbook I lent, so my possibilites are still kinda narrow, but let’s see what we can do~
I’m now back from Korea aaa~nd, first thing I did…? I caught a cold. Seriously, it’s really warm here(about 25 Degrees), but the Korean temperature brings ‘hot’ to a totally different level. Why am I babbling about this? Can’t you see the poor pun on ‘hot songs’ announcing itself on the horizon? You can? Thank god, let’s skip this, then.
With the overflowing ‘sexy concepts’ everywhere, my opinion became just more refined lately. There are different types of sexy: One, the almost desperate undressing and showcasing of bare skin which, at times, is not only totally uneccessary(*cough* Nu’est’s Sleep Talking *cough*), but also incredibly awkward at other ones(BTS, I’m looking at YOU. I really love you and I do believe you; you have abs. No need to reassure me in every damn Choreo, ok?).
Now let’s drop the rant and move on to the second type, the one that gives me goosebumps because it’s really sexy.
1. When, Where, How from Park Kyung
I think you all know by now my love for the Block B’s bubbly rapper Kyung. It’s also probably safe to say that this duet on the ‘Very Good’ mini album came as a surprise in two ways. One: Kyung can not only be dorky, but also has an amazingly soft yet strong voice. Two: Damn, this song is sexy. It’s basically a song about lazy morning sex. Doesn’t sound too enticing, but the soft vocals carry lyrics that are very sensitive and colorful:
Instead of a morning call, the rain wakes me up Between those sounds, I hear you ruffling around It’s 11 o’clock, the curtains are closed I like things just the way they are right now
Your tangled hair, your sleepy voice You wear my x-large t-shirt… Don’t mind the mess around us Don’t mind it…Continue reading →
…And because of my favourism of this song, you gotta check it out:
Lucky me, that I get a video tto a song that caught my interest that fast ♪
If only I had a computer, I’d make a full-blown review with so many screenshots… >_<
Minnie~
…Yepp, the title said it already: The rappers from ToppDogg show us a teaser for their musicvideo “Peekaboo” from their upcoming repackage album. Watch it here:
This song has been out for… A few hours? I’d love to make a full Mv Review, but with my phone…? Naah.
Still, you may like – no scratch that, you’ll probably like, but you may love this song like I do! :D
…Oh, and don’t be deceived by the Cover, it hardly mirrors anything that’s happening in this video! ;D Later on it gets more like… This:
Very… San E-ish, for that matter.
Alright, let’s get on with the facts:
Title: Body Language Artist: San E (feat. Bumkey) Album: – Year: 2014 Language:Body Language Korean Musikvideo:
I know, I know! Only Random Songs… It’s not that I’m just lazy(though I basically am lazy through and through, but that’s another story); Unfortunately my laptop broke down and this format is the only one that’s easy to do from my mobile phone…
…Anyways, I’m still listening to plenty of songs I can’t keep quiet about.
For example this really nice rap-song:
Title: 我 (“It’s Me”) Artist: Andy A47 Album: – Language: Chinese/English Year: 2014 Musicvideo: None, but this is the official Track: Continue reading →
Man, all these creative titles nowadays.
TOP DOG… From… Topp Dogg! Reminds me of a German comedian.
I still have enough material for an EXO Review, but I lack the time and prioritize Topp Dogg right now, since they deserve a lot more attention than they’re getting at the moment~!
I can imagine Topp Dogg being a challenge for new listeners, since there are 13 faces and all. Everyone who knows the name of SuJu or Exo probably knows what I’m talking about. This also made a great challenge of doing proper screenshots. I tried to catch every member equally, but it was almost impossible for some members.
I will also shortly introduce every Topp Dogg member to help new fans to get into the band, so don’t give up on them yet :)
So lets see what we have here~
First we’re gonna take a look at the overall setting. Welcome to the Wild West… Just kidding. This musicvideo is inspired by the movie Mozart, in which Salieri, an Italian componist, appears as a direct enemy to Mozart. We won’t be criticising historical correctness here, since it’s all about the battle between…
Mozart… A.k.a B-Joo with his Cotton-Candy-Afro
…And Salieri, a.k.a Hansol, who sports a pale vampire-like look. Continue reading →
“Positively Creepy”, you ask? Well, I can only talk for me, but I freakin’ love creepy songs. Songs that keep haunting me with their melody and their disturbing lyrics. Today I’m going to recommend some songs that give me goosebumps!
Actually I know far more Japanese songs of that sort, but I’ll start with the Korean ones today. Let the fun(?) begin:
1. Psycho – History
Let’s start out with a new song! Psycho from History doesn’t hold back in the least and gives us some direct insight into a rejected boyfriend that turns into a living nightmare:
Did you think you’d be done with me if we broke up? Well, you thought wrong
There’s nobody by your side tonight. […] and once everybody who might see is deep asleep I’ll go get you.
The playful tone they use along with the soothing, yet odd voice that seems to smile while singing… *shudder* Continue reading →
