Leellamarz offers a surprisingly tender rap album that while more singing than rapping is still earnest in delivery.

I had high hopes for kaogaii's BACK HAN SOL. And in the beginning, those hopes were realized.

Taking music I identify it and using it as a gimmick to house less than interesting delivery makes LOCALS ONLY unappealing to me.

Wonstein's ZOO is one of the most beautiful pieces of music to come out of South Korea in the last couple years.

Khundi Panda's MODM : Orignal Saga is the most aggressive album from South Korea in 2021.

The Alchemist's This Thing of Ours is a piece of jazz-tinged magic with musical depth and, at times, lyrical majesty.

Zior Park offers SYNDROMEZ, a twisted, fantastical work of art. Oh, how I have missed this man!
