'TIME' magazine reveals list of 'The Best K-Pop Songs and Albums of 2021'

AKP STAFF

'TIME' magazine has revealed 'The Best K-Pop Songs and Albums of 2021'.

On December 8, 'TIME' released their list of the 20 best K-pop songs and albums of the past year. The magazine wrote, "Like in any other year, K-pop in 2021 can’t be defined by a single sound or message. Soloists and groups continued pushing the bounds of genre within Korean pop music as they experimented with influences from rock to Latin, R&B to electropop. But if there was one theme that emerged more than others in the lyrics of this year’s top releases, it was a shared reflection on the passage of time, the formation of memories and holding onto hope through it all."

Take a look at the full list below and the 'TIME' article here. In no particular order:

[Songs]
"Cinema" - CIX
"Love So Sweet" - Cherry Bullet
"Fever" - ENHYPEN
"After School" - Weeekly
"Advice" - Taemin
"Pirate" - EVERGLOW
"Feel Like" - Woodz
"ASAP" - STAYC
"Rock with You" - Seventeen
"Savage" - aespa

I love how they can nominate songs not just by some big group names and big fandoms
