What I found interesting was our short discussion on Prince and that fact in his house he as a “vault” of unreleased music. I am not surprised that he has a bunch of music that nobody has heard, and I’m excited to hear more of his music. What I wanted to write about is the song Nothing Compares 2 U which was released last year. Prince wrote and produced the song but never put it out until the Irish singer Sinéad O’ Connor made the song popular in the 90s. I found this really interesting that he wrote and produced this song and probably planned on releasing it but decided to give it to someone else and have them make it popular. Then after his death released the original version of the song.  I have posted the cover and the original.

Over the past two months, I have been listening to a lot of artists but Three artists I have been listening to a lot are BTS, the band Tennis, and the band Muse. First, with BTS I have been a fan of them since 2014 so I kept myself notified when they were dropping a new album. I recently saw them in September last year for their recent tour and now they are currently on a world stadium tour with a new album. The new album Persona: Map of the Soul is kinda a throwback to their original sound and dedication to their fans. I really like the album and cannot wait for more music. Next, is the band Tennis my I first heard of them when itunes used to do single of the week ( I used it to get free music and to find new artists). I forgot about them for a while and my sister reintroduced me to them after seeing them in concert in Washington D.C I then fell back into their music and have had it on repeat. Lastly is Muse, I loved this band since middle school but forgot about them for a while until they released an album last year. I saw the music video for the new song and had to listen to the album. Soon I fell in love with the new album and had it on repeat. I am not surprised with myself my music choices change constantly sometimes daily. I love finding new music and I hope you like these artists I have chosen.

Another group I got into is a pop-rock group called The Rose. The group has 4 members Kim Woo-Sung (Sammy), Park Do-Joon (Leo), Lee Ha-Joon (Dylan), and Lee Jae-Hyeong (Jeff). The group was actually quite popular before debut, in 2017 they debuted with the song “Sorry”. With their debut they quickly became mainstream. Same as Hyukoh they have versatile to their music but because they debuted recently there is not much much from them. The Rose only released 2 eps Void and Dawn. Because they became so popular, they had multiple tours in Korea and a World tour last year in Europe, USA ( i wanted to go see them but couldn’t), Mexico and South America including Australia. I found out about them on youtube and instantly started following them. The leader Woo-sung has a really interesting voice it’s airy and raspy at the same time when he sings. His voice is very different from anyone I have ever heard sing. Here are two of my favorite songs that they have released.

for this song I couldn’t find the music video so here is a lyric video

A band I have been listening to a lot lately is Korean indie rock band HYUKOH. The band has 4 members, Oh Hyuk, Im Dong-geon, Lim Hyun-Jae, and Lee In-Woo. The band debuted 2014 with an EP called 20. The name of the albums all correlates with their ages. From 2014 to 2018 the albums are 20, 22,23 and 24. I am not sure why there is no 21 I could not find info on it. More on their music sound the leader Oh Hyuk was in inspired by the Beatles and another band named The Whitest Boy Alive. The music ranges from rock to really soft and relaxing. Later the band became really popular and they recently performed at Coachella this year. I found this band in 2015 when I was still getting into Kpop, but I wanted to find more Korean music outside of the kpop genre. Through social media, I found a tweet about them and looked up their music. I found them really interesting and have been a fan since. HYUKOH have also been on multiple tours in the U.S and I wish to see them in concert I have heard really great reviews. Lastly here are three of my favorite songs by them. I think they are a great example of how versatile their music is.
