BOL4 transitioned to a solo act 4 years in the past, however new single Lips recollects their days as a duo by enlisting aespa’s Giselle as visitor rapper. It is a sensible characteristic, as aespa are presently purple sizzling on the charts and BOL4 may use a burst of rekindled public consideration.
To be trustworthy, there’s just one BOL4 tune I totally get pleasure from. 2018’s Journey is a everlasting a part of my summer season Okay-pop playlist, with a killer melody and optimistic drive that counteracts my private disinterest within the total BOL4 sound. I’m simply not a giant fan of Ahn Ji-young’s voice. That may occur every time a performer has an ultra-unique tone. It’s certain to polarize audiences. And when the songs themselves aren’t significantly attention-grabbing, my private choice will get in the way in which.
Sadly, Lips isn’t a vastly participating tune by itself. Giselle is barely on it with a throwaway verse and the remainder of the monitor bops alongside a laidback, barely retro, groove. It’s vaguely summer season themed, however with out its colourful video the music loses a lot of that seasonal character.
