I was originally going to post this during the two weeks of K-Pop, but, you know, the Darling Buds annual celebration interrupted that. So, you get an extra day of K-Pop. Not like I don't have literally three months worth of solid K-Pop to post.....
And when I first saw aespa, I thought they looked a lot like BLACKPINK - but theirs is a unique sound.
aespa, however, doesn't need uppercase letters. This was their debut single, premiering in November 2020. It is an bass-heavy song that has become a worldwide hit.
The video definitely does NOT shy away from the snake imagery. The song itself is meant to explain the concept of aespa.....yes, there's a whole concept about avatars and experience.... you see, a lot of K-Pop is focused on performance and entertainment, and not the actual music.
However, this one's a banger, DESPITE the high concept. The four women in the group (I promise you there's only four) are clearly talented at singing, and the music here allows each of them to highlight their vocals.
