Yesterday, I was listening to some of Hyuna's songs and I came up with the idea for this post because I love the fact that Ilhoon is featured in "Roll Deep" - it makes the song so much more awesome! What I'm trying to say is that sometimes it is a really good idea to have artists feature on a song, especially if the main artist is alone. Or for groups who don't have a good rapper (which mostly is the case) or to bring a male or female vocal in because there are basically no mixed K-Pop groups. 1. Born Hater - Epik High (ft Beenzino, Verbal Jint, B.I, Mino & Bobby) This was the first song I listened to by Epik High and I fell in love with the song right away. This is probably my favorite song with featured artists and it's just amazing. Thinking about it, I should really start listening to some more of Epik High's stuff... But well, this song - perfection, seriously. All of their raps are so different, you hear their different styles but it fits together perfectly and I love it so much! 2. The Leaders - G-Dragon (ft Teddy & CL) Everyone of my friends (even those who don't listen to K-Pop) and everyone who has been reading some posts on here should know that G-Dragon is my absolute favorite artist ever, I love that guy so much. So of course I have listened to every single song he ever released (pretty much) and this one is a personal favorite because heck, this is amazing! Also, I really love CL a lot and it's just totally perfect. 3. 잘나가서 그래 (Roll Deep) - Hyuna (ft Ilhoon) Before this song, I didn't even really like Hyuna's music all that much. I knew she was the girl from Gangnam Style (for all of you who didn't know yet) and I knew about her solo stuff, watched the "Red" MV etc but I didn't like it at first. Then this song came around and at first, I was sceptical but the more I listened to the song, the more I grew to like it and now it's one of my two favorite songs by Hyuna. And it was a very good decision to get Ilhoon on board for this because his part is just great! It just fits. 4. I - Taeyeon (ft Verbal Jint) Taeyeon is a very talented singer and when she released her first solo album last year, I was incredibly happy. Plus the title song (this one) was just perfect and with rapper Verbal Jint featuring on this, it's just more perfect. Taeyeons voice and his rap go so well together! 5. Neverland - BTOB (ft G.NA) Neverland is my favorite BtoB song and I am glad to have found it because it wasn't even a title song. Could have been though, in my opinion... G.NA brings in some premium female vocals and the balance between BtoB and her singing is great. 6. 니가 하면 로맨스 (You Call It Romance) - K.Will (ft Davichi) To be totally honest, I only watched this MV because Hyungwon from Monsta X stars in it but then I got hooked on the song. The melody is super sweet and K.Will has a nice voice. I personally only know Davichi from a few songs but what I've heard was all very good! They are very talented and definitely a perfect addition to this! 7. 화 - Mad Clown (ft Jinsil) Back when I first got into K-Pop and had no idea about anything, I found this song and fell in love. The contrast between her singing and his rapping is so awesome, I can't even find suitable words... Let me also clarify: it's not Jinsil in the MV, that's Hani from EXID. 8. Daddy - PSY (ft CL) I was sceptical about Psy's comeback last year. After Gangnam Style he had released a few more songs but I didn't like them at all and in general, I wasn't much of a fan. But I decided to give the album a listen anyways and I was not disappointed (again). This song is by far my favorite and it's just very much Psy-like. 9. Wow Wow Wow - Junjin (ft Eric) When this came out, I didn't even know all that much about Shinhwa yet, thus I had no idea Junjin was a member. When I did finally realize it, I immediately listened to the album and liked this song right away. 10. 또 하루 (Lonely Night) - Gary (ft Gaeko) I knew Gary from Running Man and this was the first song by him that I listened to. Gaeko is half of the rapper duo Dynamic Duo and I'd heard about them before and I definitely liked the combination of the two. Special Mention |
