    A lot of what I'm into has been heard, as I'm a 2nd gen baby. But right now, this is in rotation:

    This feels more reminiscent of dream pop to me. f---ing great song though :rejoice: Gotta check them out.

    Soul Lady is amazing, unfortunately it turns out Yukika and her agency have terminated her contract. Fans are saying it's coz she wants more creative control or to pursue other avenues or something.

    Hope it's not the end for our Queen of City Pop :wow2:

    As for more reccs, just check this chart for some City Pop goodness:

    She got that retro city girl style but dream pop makes sense

    That sucks about Yukika. I heard she's actually Japanese but moved to SK to pursue a music career

    Thx for the recs!

    Finally found some time to dig deeper into City Pop and Downtown Boy is such an amazing song. I just keep listening to it, that vibe it's giving me is great. Also posted some of my other current favs. @Ordinary Joel What's your opinion on these?

    BTS' Dynamite has been poppin'-- what's y'alls opinion?

    Apparently this is my most streamed song of the year according to Spotify. Sounds fake but okay.

    It seems like a few Japanese songs have upbeat music with dark lyrics. Love it

    This thread needs way more Blackpink.

    also Pink Guy is the best Asian rapper.

    Petz new single slaps


    Currently watching all Evangelion movies since the last one just came out and I really dig how they changed the story starting with the end of 2.22. Anyways, this theme song by Hikari Utada is just beautiful. She alsondid a few songs for Kingdom Hearts
