2NE1 did something that is unusual in the Korean music scene today. They waited a whole year before they dropped their album. In To Anyone, they are fresh, they are tight, they are bouncing!

This mini-album – the first after that former member JaeBom left the group – is a step 2PM takes in to reinventing themselves, with a little R&B mixed with dance tracks. Nothing really stands out, yet it doesn’t really suck.

2PM released their second studio album Hands Up on June 20, 2011. It’s a great development in what 2PM has done so far. This time around the sound is a little bit more fun, with tracks are a little bit more sexy and has a club vibe.

The latest minialbum by the “beasts” in Kpop is a great club album filled with a nice retro sound. And by retro I mean disco mixed with some kind of 90′s sound.

13:day:dream is somewhat between electronic and industrial rock with very dark and intense sequences that makes it sound like a midnight feverish dream.

After the success of Chasing Pavements from her debut album 19, Adele is back with 21. In it, the heartbreak is tough, the vocals are sharper, the lyrics are more controlled, and the sound seems less raw.
