Right on schedule, my indecisive self says hello once again! During my annual New Year’s Eve/Day listen to my favorite songs of the year, these ten songs popped up on the playlist and they definitely left a lasting impression on my 2021 music year. So here’s ten more tracks worthy of my Top 70 (80?!) of 2021!
As we bring 2021 to a close, it is of course time for those end-of-year lists! Lists ranking everything from TV shows to TikTok trends. You could probably find a list ranking anything you could ever imagine.
Last year, I started the Music Monday feature here on DryedMangoez.com in which I shared some of the music I’ve been listening to each week. And of course, at the end of the year, I had to rank my favorites. But for me, I always have trouble ranking things. Whether it’s music or seasons of my favorite TV shows. I’m pretty indecisive that way.
Four Christmas Treats from ONEWE & ONEUS, BF, OnlyOneOf, Kim Woojin
Over the years, I’ve always been happy to see and hear new music from them. Their diverse discography features many different styles of music. From emotional ballads to midtempo R&B songs to even upbeat dance tracks as well. And with every release, their talent is always evident. Between their powerful, passionate vocals and their silky smooth harmonies, it’s always a treat to get to enjoy a performance from VOISPER.
The MBC music channel it’s Live (formerly Mdromeda KPOP) features special live performances from a diverse mix of artists. And quite often, artists are able to present a side of themselves that they’re just unable to do on the regular network television music shows. When they say “t’s Live,” it really is LIVE. And these great examples are some of my favorite performances from it’s Live this past year.
