KPOP: 4/30/18 Wings (Outro) By BTS 💚

Image
SOOOOO BTS IS COMING TO MY HOMETOWN. Like seriously Bts comes to the US once every 80 million years and what are the odds they come to my town? Kinda crazy. All the fan girls in the army at my school are literally freaking out. this one girl was crying for an hour. Anyways, ticket drops are this saturday so i figure let's get my BTS on. Today's review is on Wings. So is it really a main song? It's meant to be the outro (hence it's in the name). But either way, it is a banger. it is a song with a lot of English, which in my opinion I like. There also is like a huge buildup into the chorus (like 2 minutes) so something to keep in mind. Overall this song just gets me super hype every time. The bass line is incredible and it's a really big motivational song. "Spread my wings and flyyyyyy" (yeah the song to text translation is not that good) but trust me the song gets me super hype. Not much else to say about the song. Again, I don't know Korean and I...

MUSIC: 4/28/18 Famous by Mason Ramsey 💚

Thats right kids, we are attacking THE WALMART YODEL BOY'S FIRST SONGGGGGGG. Alright so I will start out by honestly saying that going into this, I completely thought it would just be another meme song or whatever. He'd do some yodels, get his 15 minutes of fame, and then it'd be dead for the rest of the year. But I was wrong, I actually really liked this song. Now, do keep in mind country isn't exactly my specialty, but compared to the few country songs I have listened to in my life, yeah, it was really good. The only thing I'd point out is that you know that country/southern accent all singers have? Well, mason kinda has it but he is from illinois, so it wasn't really there. And that really disappointed me, because this could have been a true banger if he went all country on us. As for the lyrics, they were pretty solid. I mean, it's about how he's gracious for being famous and all, but he'd rather be famous for loving this girl that he m...

KPOP: 4/25/18 BBoom BBoom by MOMOLAND 💚

Image
YOOO back on the music grind (YouTube videos will return though). Anyways, wanted to quickly share my thoughts on BBoom BBoom by momoland. For starters, the chorus (and the song overall I guess) is really catchy. Obviously, the song is in Korean, but the lyrics itself, idk, they just stuck to me really well. I don't really listen to momoland too much, so I can't really comment on who I think sung the best in this song or whatever, but take my word it is a very catchy song. The dance itself is also pretty good. In my opinion not as good as Blackpink or red Velvet, but still verty solid for a girl group. Again, not a huge fan of Momoland so don't want to comment on who dances the best either. If I had one complaint, it would be the beginning beat. Now, I'm sure some Momoland fans will be extremelyyyy angry at me, but for a decent kpop fan, looking from the perspective of someone trying to find a new song, it just doesn't click me with me. It seems out of place...

YOUTUBE: 4/24/18 Masterchef Emotional Moments

Image
On the YouTube grind for the rest of the week, mostly because I listen to the same like 30 songs on my one playlist and don't want to review them all in one month and then be screwed. Anyways, some more videos came into my recommended, these two about times when people on Masterchef got super emotional. The first video is about this guy who has been perfecting this cake for five years or something, and then when he finally gets to make it, he goes nuts. Watch it on  YouTube And then this second one is this blind chef who, despite never making a pie in her life, makes an apple pie that in Gordon's words "is absolutely phenomenal". Watch it on  YouTube

YOUTUBE: 4/23/18 Kid makes three straight shots from half court

Image
ahaha, another random video, again not much to say about it. Anyways, found this in my recommendation (might be my love for Dude Perfect? not sure). Honestly, the only reason I love this video is that the crowd recognizes game. I love the progression after the kid makes the first shot (a little cheering) to the second (people are kinda amazed) TO THE ENTIRE BUILDING GOING WILD AFTER THEY'VE JUST WITNESSED HISTORY. Like imagine making your third halfcourt shot and 20000 people go wild. Unbelievable, hats off to this kid. Anyways, enjoy the clip! Watch on  YouTube

YOUTUBE: 4/22/18 Walmart Yodel Boy Dance (remix)

Image
So uh, not much else to say about this video, not like I can review it or anything. Just something cool I clicked on i guess. By now, I hope most of you understand the Walmart Yodeling Boy meme (so I won't explain it), but anyways, rigggghhhhttttt before it becomes completely dead I want to post this. This video especially stood out to me, because it was really in synchronized, and it was cringy but like in a good way. Idk, it's hard to explain, but I like how a comment tries to describe it as "2018 summed up in one video". It's pretty accurate in my opinion, but you can be the judge of that. Watch on  YouTube

MUSIC: 4/20/18 No Grass Today by AJR 💚

Image
WOOOOOOOOOO 4/20 BLAZE IT UP!!!! (ahaha what is wrong with me. Seriously, drugs are not the way to go). Anyway, for some people, this may seem like the most important holiday in the year next to Christmas or whatever, so I feel like I have to post about it. And what better song to talk about than a song about not smoking grass (no serious). AJR is a highly underrated techno/edm group or whatever. I found out about them after they played on Jimmy Kimmel a few months ago, and ever since them I have been in love. Part of their most recent album is this song No Grass Today, and I absolutely love it. One of the main things I like is the chorus. IT IS SO CATCHY. Adam (I think) literally has the most soothing voice. Not like go to sleep soothing, but it isn't like arrogant or whatever, it's just laid back and amazing. And the lyric, while dumb, is actually kind of cool I guess. "I didn't smoke no grass today, but that's because I love to play, but who am I to take a...
