LOONA spin-off Loossemble are at present with out an company, unable to launch new music since 2024. As a salve for anxious followers, their youngest member YeoJin has returned right now with a solo monitor. Sugar Speak will seemingly please these within the temper for a vibey LOONAVERSE monitor, even when it feels like “simple listening” to me.
A music like Sugar Speak could be efficient as an antidote to greater, bolder sounds, however in an business the place subdued vibes have develop into the norm relatively than the exception, there’s little to assist the music stand out. It’s a boppy mid-tempo with a repetitive refrain and a barely-over-two-minutes runtime. It feels extra like a sigh than an exclamation, led by a candy however unsubstantial vocal and manufacturing that hardly exerts itself. If something, Sugar Speak is an train in fan service — an opportunity to get product onto the market relatively than make any kind of musical assertion. Hopefully this nice stopgap will urge some company to grab up the complete group and provides them an opportunity for a (third) resurgence.
