I always wanted to like Ariana Grande because she’s super pretty and can actually sang, but her debut single “Put Your Hearts Up” was so fucking shitty that I just had to hate her and pray for her demise.
I’m basically suicidal right now. First SHINee followed up the genre-bending smash that is “Sherlock” with the insipid background pop that is “Dream Girl,” and now INFINITE has followed “The Chaser” –possibly the best pop song of 2012– with the most disappointing single of their (and Sweetune’s) career, “Man In Love.” Seriously, if TVXQ returns [...]
Along with Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city and whatever that cunt Azealia Banks puts out, A$AP Rocky’s Long. Live. ASAP seems to be one of the only hip-hop records I can really get into lately. All the tracks are hot, but the Skrillex-assisted “Wild For The Night” is one of my favorite cuts just for the fact [...]
To be honest, I’m not a huge fan of GodT’s “Mirrors.” I like it, but I don’t L-O-V-E it (yet). It’s cute in the context of The Flawless/Iconic Experience, but I’m not really here for it as a single when there’s much better stuff that could’ve been released instead. So with that said, I wasn’t [...]

The bulk of the production duo’s work is with girl groups and boy bands, but they’ve also got a good relationship with former SS501 star, Heo Young Saeng, who is one of the more popular members of [...]
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, a.k.a The Crown Jewel of Japan, is back with another one of her life-changing anthems.
One of my favorite things about 2012 was discovering D E N A. Her breakout blog hit, “Cash, Diamond Rings, Swimming Pools,” was a little piece of musical heaven, and her winning personality only made her even more amazing. Nobody really seems to be able to tell if she’s an annoying hipster or some kind of ironic parody [...]
G.NA is the most annoying woman in K-pop. She’s the epitome of that random nice person in your life who technically has nothing wrong with them, yet they just irritate the shit out of you for no real reason in particular. Seriously, every time you think G.NA is finally okay, she’ll go and do something totally stupid [...]
