[hanarchy]

was tagged by @slowwshoww and i want to preface this with: you wanted music recs but i am very public on this blog abt my very strangely limited music taste so this is on u and now u have to deal with it. that being said though, I’m gonna give u some reasons for each song 🙏

i was tagged to post the first 10 songs of my on repeat playlist and here they are

1. chung ha - i’m ready (club banger, like its just good gay club music, chung ha is such a fucking star its wild)

2. stray kids - stop (weird old deep cut from skz discography that sounds like if u mix minimal techno with a kpop impression of imagine dragons and weirdly goes extremely hard bc of it)

3. key - gasoline (listen like. this song is like the platonic ideal of a kpop song to me. which isnt to say it’s the best one but like its such a good illustration of what a lot of kpop sounds like today. like a little cringe on first listen, a bit of rap you dont really wanna deal with, some belting in between but after listening to it like twice it’ll be stuck in your head and the beat/background instrumental/hook is just FUN)

4. zakwe - music (Zakwe is like the godfather of south african rap from what i gather and i REALLY have to ask all of u to listen to it just ONCE if youve never heard someone rap in zulu, that shit is INSANE. This song was made in 2011 and his wikipedia says he once opened for kanye west so 2011 kanye gives you a decent idea of what this song sounds like)

5. Han from Stray Kids - RUN (i love him. its a really good song)

6. kehlani - piece of Mind (i love this fucking kehlani record sooooo much and this song is so painful imo but also very lovely in many ways)

7. bruce springsteen - tenth avenue freeze-out (listen like. I have never been able to resist some good horns OR a great saxophone and this song has both. is it a little cringe? yes. all the best bruce springsteen songs are.)

8. Stray Kids - The Tortoise and the Hare (top 3 skz songs ever made. insane experimental rap thing they made kind of mangling a korean childrens rhyme as well as the fable of the tortoise and the hare obv)

9. taemin - press your number (listen if you only ever listen to one kpop song in ur entire life make it a taemin song and dont just listen but watch the mv is my opinion. not this one tbh, it’s just the one I’m currently obsessed with)

10. stray kids - easy (also top 10 skz songs easy (lol) its just so good. the rap is there the beat is there the vibe goes hard, the choreo also slaps if ur inclined to look at the mv)

i tag @wantbytaemin @hyunpic @bourgeoix @alexenglish @biolums @geniaparadox @mybodyfails and thats everyone i can think of rn but also u guys dont have to give commentary 🙏
