Here is Idol Rumble’s catered list of K-pop new releases for the week of 7/23/2023. You can access the full playlist on the top right of the video.
Rob’s Pick of the Week
Oh My Girl - Summer Comes
Yup, deal with my top group bias this week. It sounds like Oh My Girl’s take on Taeyeon’s Weekend, but what if you throw E.One as the producer on it? It’s a fun track, but it doesn’t completely mesh too well. Some of the line’s syncopation doesn’t sound like it matches too well with the music track. Mimi’s rap is also a little out of place, especially if you read the random lyrics of it. But hey, I’m still glad that they’re going strong during their 8th year together. Cheers to many more.
Rob’s Second Pick of the Week
Colde - When Dawn Comes Again (ft. Baekhyun)
This is the pick that fills that chill checkbox this week. If an SM artist is on your RnB track, it’s going to be good. Need to test drive this on a night drive sometime.
