FIERY FOUR

MV] 마마무(MAMAMOO) - 너나 해(Egotistic) 2018.07.16 6PM 'RED MOON' 발매 - MAMAMOO https://twitter.com/RBW_MAMAMOO https://www.facebook.com/RBW.MAMAMOO https://www.instagram.com/mamamoo_official/ https://www.youtube.com/user/WAMamamoo

MAMAMOO heats up the charts with the release of “Egotistic” on July 16 off of their seventh mini-album, Red Moon. As part of their summer album, these fine four ladies show a more fiery side with a Latin-inspired beat accompanied by their sultry vocals which belittle their selfish lovers and their desire to break free from their hopeless love. Currently 19th on Instiz’s Weekly iChart, listeners can foresee their rise on the charts from the looks of their pre-release, “Rainy Season,” and their last promoted track, “Starry Night,” still present in the Top 20 of the MelOn Weekly Charts.

SUMMERTIME SADNESS

♬ Available on iTunes, Apple Music : https://apple.co/2KRX9JU Listen on Spotify : https://spoti.fi/2LgHGSV "세상에서 가장 가까웠던 사람, 버거울 만큼 많은 감정을 쏟았던 사람." 하지만 이 모든 걸 의미 없게 만드는 게 이별이다. 이별은 뜨거웠던 감정을 무색하게 만들고, 세상에서 가장 가까웠고 누구보다 잘 알던 사람을 두 번 다시 볼 수 없다는 말이기도 하다.

DAVICHI released their newest single, “Nostalgia,” on July 12. Known for their emotional ballads perfect for any K-Drama, the duo sing a story of lingering heartbreak with painful nostalgia that can only be cured by abandoning sweet memories. The progression of soft piano keys followed by Minkyung and Haeri’s powerhouse vocals bring the lyrics to life with listeners reminiscing vividly of their bittersweet past. Placed at 17th on Genie and 10th on Instiz, DAVICHI sings for the lonely hearts this season.

THE COOL DOWN

♬ Available on iTunes, Apple Music : https://apple.co/2NVq25z Listen on Spotify : https://spoti.fi/2Jvx5hZ -wonderlost by Crush. 석양이 저무는 수평선 넘어 닿을 수 없는 그 곳까지 깊게 떠나고 싶은 마음처럼, 이 여름을 즐기고 싶은 이들과 함께 하고픈 Crush의 여름 이야기 wonderlost. 크러쉬의 여름 감성을 녹여낸 'wonderlost' 앨범은 2016년 가을 발매한 미니앨범 'wonderlust'를 잇는 'wonder' 시리즈의 후속 앨범이다.

R&B singer Crush released his summer track, “Cereal,” featuring ZICO, on July 13 from his third EP, Wonderlost, as part of his Wonder album series. In contrast to the calming melodies of Wonderlust, the artist changes up with a brighter and upbeat song that rejoices his newfound love, comparing his feelings with a strong desire to spend every morning with his lover eating cereal and cleverly announcing to the world that “she’s real,” which adds a whimsical element to the song title. At number 14 on Bugs! Weekly Chart, the mix of Crush’s smooth vocals and ZICO’s versatile rapping blended to a groovy beat is perfectly suited for a summer cooldown mix.

Yoon Mirae returned with “You & Me” on July 5 as part of her Gemini 2, a sequel to her 2002 Gemini album. Deviating from her usual hip-hop sound, this new track features melodic synthesizers for a more bubbly image that expresses the story of two friends experiencing love that is beyond platonic. While the song focuses on an incomplete love story, images of Yoon Mirae, Tiger JK, and their friends vibing together shares another story of cherishing friendships. This hidden gem rests at number 11 on Bugs! as the best anthem to blast with your friends in your summer adventures.
