Music Style
At first they were a group with addictive choreographies and auto-tuned/electro/pop songs like Man Man Hani.
But after Alexander and Kibum's departure, their company decided to drastically change their style to bring maturity and evolution to the group. So now their style is more diversified: hip-hop, electro, dance, pop, and they also sing very nice ballads.
Songs

Aha~ Just stumbled upon your blog.
ReplyDeleteI highly approve of your selectivity in k-pop music. "Neverland" and "330" are definitely a couple of my favorite U-Kiss songs, too~~ I loop both of them at a weekly basis at least 20times in a row~ Cheers, fellow U-Kiss fan. (≧∇≦)/
U-KISS is awesome!
ReplyDeleteYeah... Someone, I don't remember who, told me one day to go listen to them... :p
Ever is grateful. Thanks!
