Current favorites from 2ne1 and One Way

Cr: Onewaysound+2ne1@YT

One way is a relatively a new group actually. I think they debut sometime last year. I heard their first mini album One Way and I immediately liked their sound of RnB. There's no bad song in the album. Everything is just great. They're one of the few very talented non-idol groups out there. They're good dancers and really great vocals and an absolute musicians and composers. This is what talent really means you know. And in their new album which I forgot to check when Kathy told me about it. I just remembered to check it now when I saw from Jheneh on Tumblr. This time it's a full album and again they simply just amaze me. All 10 songs with 4 bonus tracks are absolutely repeat worthy. The four I included here are my top 4 from the album.

One Way's album I give it 5/5.

A Thousand Words 



Forever 


Can't Stop



As for 2ne1, I've never really liked their sound ever since they debut. I couldn't get myself to listen to their songs. They're so patterned into Big Bang's hip hop music, too much auto-tune, too much electronic sound. It hurts my ears. Although there's this one song I like from them It Hurts which is very unlike any of their electronic auto-tune hip hop songs. That's the only song  like from them. But then last night, they released a digital single titled Lonely and I was like wow this is good. It's different from It Hurts and way way different from their noisy songs. I wish they sing like this more often but I doubt that's possible because like most people say they're the female Big Bang. Fine. At least there's some good songs from them once in awhile. This is their best so far.
