Sonamoo "Deja Vu"

In the mist of B.A.P filing for contract nullification, TS Entertainment has debuted their newest group Sonamoo (which coincidentally look like a female counterpart to B.A.P).

The 33 Best Songs of 2014

This year has been a disappointment in music overall. In America, the overhyped machine known as "Frozen" somehow dominated album charts, the radio beat the same songs into our brains with more gusto than in previous years and critics collectively sucked up to Taylor Swift's latest collection of fifth grade level songwriting and heralded it as the best thing ever. Puke. The K-Pop landscape was also barren with most of the girl groups wanting to be sexed up to the nines by their agencies, the boy groups wanting to seem either over emotional or over hardened by the streets, and groups who took major creative risks last year opting to go back to the box set (pun intended). However, it wasn't all bad, with irresistible pop gems, Bossa Nova inspired bops, soul-wrenching midtempos and songs that were all in all fun to jam to.
 Songs in this list were released between 12/20/2013-12/20/2014 or had a parent album released in 2014.

The 2014 VMAs: The Good and The Meh (Short Recap)

This year's VMAs was not one for the books. Questionable winners, Jay Pharoh effectively annoying the general public with his impressions and a performance list that didn't reflect the current trends of popular music. All that aside there were some good moments and some really meh moments. The meh outweighed the good so I kept the meh as short as possible.
