BRIGHT have to be my favorite J-pop girl group besides Tenjochiki. They have amazing voices and I’ll compare them to Korean group Big Mama because they have these amazing voices and can dance really well, but get such crappy songs. Continue reading BRIGHT Real

JASMINE GOLD
After 2 years of releasing singles, JASMINE has finally released her debut album filled with hits like sad to say, L.I.P.S,Jealous,This is Not A Game,No More, and Dreamin’. What attracted me to her music was that it had a R&B feel with emotion; that and the fact that she always had on these colorful wigs and different concepts for every single.

Guess what skp readers? This is my first Japanese album review on the site! I really enjoyed listening to ICONIQ’s debut album; it was better than what I expected. What I like about this album is that they experimented with a lot of different sounds. Continue reading ICONIQ Change Myself
J.ae Sentimental
This entire album is a breath of fresh air. It’s an album that I can relax after a stressful day; it’s a nice break from constant dance tracks and auto-tune every song I hear. J.ae is in a genre all her own; not K-pop or R&B; it’s from the heart and that’s what I admire about her. Continue reading J.ae Sentimental
f(x) NU ABO
f(x) didn’t really wow me with their debut single, but it was so catchy that I found myself singing it /dancing to it. Then they released Chu~ which made me want to go slap whoever wrote it, but once again it was catchy so I Â was singing it/dancing to it. After I heard, You’re My Destiny, I fell in love and decided to review this album. Continue reading f(x) NU ABO

길미(Gilme)- The 1st Purple Dream Sound
When I first saw Gilme’s MV for Love Cuts, I fell in love. Her voice is very unique. She has a skill that few idols have; she can rap and sing. Many compare her to Tasha/Yoon Mirae. Continue reading 길미(Gilme)- The 1st Purple Dream Sound

KARA 3rd Mini Album
KARA shed their cutesy ‘Honey’ images with the trending “sexy black” concept for their 3rd mini album, Lupin, which is French for thief. What I don’t understand is why does sexy have to be associated with the color black. Why can’t red or white be considered sexy? Anyway back to the album review. Continue reading KARA 3rd Mini Album
