BTS came out with a short album recently which perfectly embodied the variety of music in which they create. The hit single "Boy With Luv" captured the hearts of all the fans and those who aren't familiar with the world of k-pop. Halsey was featured in the song, which pulled Western pop influences into the single. The bubblegum pop single did not define this entire album though, songs like "Jamais vu" and "Dionysus" demonstrate exactly the variety in this album, giving a feel of rock and a feel of mellow, sad rhythms. The feel of "intro: persona" gave put RM on a rap pedestal, where an interesting, electro-type beat eases into his lyrics. "HOME" embedded the classic genre of BTS, mixing hype beats with a slight hip hop rhythm. One Direction, possibly the biggest boyband of the century so far, unofficially disbanded in early 2016, where millions of fans were disappointed and upset that their favorite band was now moving on. They let the fans down easy and have all pursued their solo careers in a successful way, some more than others. Remembering their albums from Up All Night to Made in the A.M., I rank the albums on the scale of most to least enjoyed based on my perspective.
1. Midnight Memories 2. Four 3. Take Me Home 4. Made in the AM 5. Up All Night 1. Sucker - Jonas Brothers
2. Free Spirit - Khalid 3. Talk - Khalid 4. break up with your girlfriend, im bored - Ariana Grande 5. Happier - Marshmello 6. wish you were gay - Billie Eilish 7. Without Me - Halsey 8. Nights Like This - Kehlani 9. Old Town Road - Lil Nas X The Jonas Brothers announced their split around the time the infamous ex-boyband One Direction rose to fame. The end of the era of the rock and roll brothers of the 2000s upset millions of fans everywhere, including me as a poor 10 year old. From the hit single 'Year 3000', the brothers have reunited in 2019 to put together a groovy single called 'Sucker'. The song made it onto my playlist, and although it steers them away from their original rock sock from the 2000s, it makes for a happy, lively mood. Joe and Nick Jonas show off their vocals and Kevin shreds the guitar per usual, making the perfect, classic Jonas Brothers single. I miss their rock tunes, but I am ready and excited for whatever else they have in store. Last week, Ariana Grande may have dropped the biggest album of February. With the incorporation of soul, R&B, and pop, Ariana leaves Arianators and all listeners with their mouths wide-open. The song that immediately got to me was ghostin'. The song was an absolute masterpiece for me, and the soothing, beautiful falsettos and harmonies at the end had me mesmerized. All in all, it made me want to cry. NASA got me up and bumping to the beat, bringing a more happy and lively mood to the album. The song that most got to my attention, and the public's as well, was, break up with girlfriend, i'm bored. This song definitely expressed a guilty pleasure that may seem messy to people, but it is fun to think about in a song. Overall, Ariana produced the perfect album that hit all aspects of the pop genre spectrum. Even though I slightly enjoyed "Sweetener"'s ballads better, this album serves as a great start to pop in 2019. |
AuthorMy name is Angela and my life revolves around music. I realized that a song could tell a million stories, even multiple at the same time. My passion for it continues to grow every single day, and I want to share my personal feelings about modern music and my particular taste in it. Another day another song. Archives
