JO1s Posted December 22, 2019 Author Posted December 22, 2019 #2 Japrison - Sky-hi (2018) The mixture of elements of Jazz rock and rap on this album are perfect. Songs like person, white lily and the shed luster interludes are what make this album so good.
JO1s Posted December 25, 2019 Author Posted December 25, 2019 #1 Eau de Vixx / Reincarnation - Vixx (2018) These are esentially one album one being their Korean release and one being their japanese release. These are the peak of Korean pop. With masterpieces such as Scentist and Shangri-La, experimental excellence with Odd sense, Last note with it's Katamari pop excellence, R&B excellence in Circle and My Valentine, Gay anthems such as Trigger and Silence every song is a high.
K$Ellie Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 Eaux De Vixx was pretty great, Reincarnation didn't live up to it but I think I liked maybe 3 of the new sings
