Song of the Week: Noonie Bao – Oceans Deep

Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. Grimes’ recent single Flesh Without Blood could have been the song of the year, but she messed it up by overcomplicating what should have been simple. Perhaps in an attempt to be subversive, she made the chorus a complete anticlimax after the brilliant verse.… Continue reading Song of the Week: Noonie Bao – Oceans Deep

Future Stars: CL (Capitol/YG Entertainment)

Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. Most Brits know nothing about K-pop, except Gangnam Style (which they probably think is Japanese), but acts such as BIGBANG can sell out two dates at Wembley Arena with tickets over £100. This phenomenon suggests a crossover star is inevitable, but no-one’s cracked it… Continue reading Future Stars: CL (Capitol/YG Entertainment)
