Sunmi 'Tail' Comeback Review
Sunmi has made her comeback with “Tail” paired with “What The Flower”. I’m kind of glad that it is a double single, but also a bit disappointed because it is just a double single. I really was hoping it would be a mini album or a full album because we've only been getting singles from Sunmi since 2019. It would have been amazing to have a mini album, but I’m glad she gave us two songs instead of just one.

STAYC ASAP Comeback Review
Stayc made their first comeback with ASAP along with three other tracks, So What, Love Fool, and So Bad (TAK Remix). This comeback was highly anticipated because Stayc debut So Bad did very well, and they are the first group managed under High Up Entertainment, created by the famous producing duo Black Eyed Pilseung. So South Korea and international fans were very excited to hear they would make a comeback, and they did with ASAP.

Rosé finally made her long-awaited solo debut, and I’m so happy for her because I know she was waiting for a long time too.

Lana Del Rey, Chemtrails Over the Country Club Album Review
Lana Del Rey has arrived with her highly anticipated album Chemtrails Over the Country Club, and what a very difficult journey it’s been to get here. Lana had a lot of controversies this past year, said this album was going to be released in September of 2020 but nope, and honestly I kind of forgot why I was a huge Lana fan. I won’t go into detail of all the controversies and stupid stuff she did, because everyone has already talked about it, and I just want to focus on the album.

Brian Wilson's new album
At almost 90, Brian Wilson takes the time to reflect on his work and grand us the opportunity to hear his most beloved tunes the way he hears them. This new record is a full instrumental recollection of Beach boys tunes with a lot of soul as the main ingredient.

30 by Adele | Album Review
I want to start off by saying that this album is, without a doubt in my mind, more of an outlet and coping mechanism for Adele than it is music designed to be mass consumed for profit. I think this aspect is where some criticism come from in the review of this album and some overlook just how emotional this album is meant to be. Adele is coming off of a divorce, while caring for a young child, comments on her weight, and suffering from almost debilitating anxiety at times. This album is the culmination of all of these things in the most heart-wrenching way possible. I understand this can take away from the enjoyability, but at the end of the day, Adele is going to sell and I’m going to listen.
