Midweek New Music Roundup :: May 21st - June 4th

[hitokage]

So yeah, the last couple of weeks have been kind of crazy, so we're getting a two week roundup post. Hopefully this won't happen again, but summer can be kind of an overwhelming time, so I make no promises! These two weeks produced a list of over 120 videos, so yeah. Everyone seeking to put out new music ahead of summer festival season (even as the festivals are already starting 😅) plus new dramas starting to add their OSTs to the pile. Honestly, it may be too much for any one person to get through unaided, so take your time and remember that Find... is your friend. 😉 Whether you're looking for the latest dance pop releases, the freshest hiphop, some new R&B to make you cry, or something even more surprising (there's jazz AND country-western this week!), the odds of finding something you'll like are in your favor.

Banner artist slots for this roundup went to SHINee and NCT's Ten, with additional picks going to BIBI, IU, Big Ocean, xikers, SEVENTEEN, DIAMOB, and Baekhyun of EXO. Because I'm just that predictable.
