Five Songs That Should Find A Permanent Home In The Red Hot Center Of A Collapsing Star
I wasn’t going to participate in this. Music is like pizza toppings… most people like normal, good quality things, and some people are wrong and like pineapple. It’s not worth my time to argue with the neanderthals who like the latter. There’s plenty around to make my blood boil and delving into those songs I spend time consciously avoiding isn’t exactly what I want to do with my free time.

HUNTR/X's "How It's Done": A thunderous opening for K-Pop: Demon Hunters. AI-Generated.
The moment HUNTR/X's "How It's Done" kicks in at the start of Netflix's animated film K-Pop: Demon Hunters, it's clear this isn't a typical musical. More than just an introductory song, this explosive track serves as both a high-octane battle anthem and a perfect primer for the characters who sing it. With its razor-sharp production, commanding vocals from EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and REI AMI, and a bravado-filled lyrical message, the song expertly sets the stage for a story where K-pop stardom and supernatural warfare collide.

Some Thoughts On The Nature Of Progressive Music
Introduction These are just some of my thoughts on what makes music "progressive" and whether it always needs to be rock-based in the eschelons. While music started probably as chants to the heavens, which became hymns, and songs about life and nature that became the lifeblood of folk music, and these threads eventually led to classical music, in which groups of musicians performed written music together. Then these threads, folk, religious and classical, continued to grow and split, giving us blues, jazz, soul, rock, and roll.

A Push and Pull for the Ages: Ravyn Lenae's "Love Me Not". AI-Generated.
Ravyn Lenae’s "Love Me Not" is a masterclass in musical contradiction. It’s a breezy, fun-loving track, brimming with a nostalgic, doo-wop-inspired bounce, yet beneath its polished surface lies a poignant and raw exploration of relationship uncertainty. It is this beautiful duality—the sweet sorrow of a love that can't be pinned down—that makes "Love Me Not" not only a viral sensation but also a career-defining moment for the Chicago-born artist. In a soundscape often dominated by a uniform digital sheen, Lenae offers something that feels both fresh and timeless, proving that a song can be both a throwback and a hit.

Justin Bieber's alternative pop track, "Daisies," released as the lead single from his seventh album Swag, represents a notable evolution in his artistry, blending intimate, raw vulnerability with a deceptively simple production style. Co-written by Bieber and a team of acclaimed producers including Dijon, Mk.gee, and Tobias Jesso Jr., the song offers a candid glimpse into the complexities of his relationship with his wife, Hailey Bieber, navigating the highs and lows with a maturity not always present in his earlier work.
