NEW MUSIC
This next one is FANTASTIC! I'm only a year late getting to hear this.
The song is great. Kind of Bruno Mars style.
Jung Kook, USHER ‘Standing Next to You
- USHER Remix’ Official Performance Video
Watch I only added this to move away from the Bad Bunny. Now I'm interested in Jung Kook's music. This is another really great voice.
I initially thought this was an Usher song. But its Jung Kook. It is really good.This is the best I have heard from BTS though, and they were the big Korean band that broke in the West.
This video features Usher. I like Usher, he's very smooth. Actually a bit of an unusual looking guy, but good performer. technicaly I like him.
and One More for the Dance
Watch Features Hyunjin in the horrible black and white trousers.
They use lots of martial arts moves. I love martial arts but also used for dance. I want my spine injury to heal enough that I could do some of this dance. It's still going on.
There used to be 9 members in Stray Kids but this one featured next, was asked to leave in 2019
- which would be for pretty serious reasons. It is said there was friction in the group but the main reason given was that of sexual assault - when out at a bar he was accused of touching girls inappropriately. Seems a very sad way to have lost your career as a member of Stray Kids. I've seen a few other things and he does look as if he might have done what was said. I would say it was about personality differences and he just did not get along, but also there were instances of aggression. He is actually very good, but it just did ot work out with being in Stray Kids.
So I thought I would look at his work. He was the or a lead singer, and he does have a good voice, and all the skills you would expect of a Stray Kids member. This song is actually good, but the choreography I think is too busy for the song.
However, I do really like Woojin's work.
KIM WOOJIN 김우진 'What U Say'
Watch. I think it is better to listen to it, more than be distracted by the dancing. Way too much choreography. His type of voice is like IN (Hallucination) and usually when its the I.N feature there is not a lot of dancing. Even in Hallucination the dancing is not distracting.
Here is another Woojin. Again his voice is good, its a nice song. Actually I am a fan of Woojin's voice.
'I Like The Way'
Watch I like to focus on his voice. But, his dancing is good. I like this!
I hope Woojin's career takes off. He is with new management now - Kustomade - and also he writes his songs - which are good.
That was a tough thing to happen for him. And maybe, it was personality related, but its tough. I do wish him well, and I am going to pass on some of his music. Maybe anyone else could add a track on their social media.
In Korea the pop stars have to be very nice guys.
The things that came up with Woojin obviously cost him his career with a mega successful group, but it is very important that they are likeable and very decent, also respectful, yet of course these are definitely guys in the style of martial arts tough, but also the discipline. They train incredibly hard and have to follow the same kind of ethic as in martial arts.
In my opinion countries such as the example of Korea are far ahead of the USA, also way ahead of Australia, and these strange type weirdo English people they have now who talk exactly the same. They are better. Even in poor countries of oriental Asia, they will dress well. With the Stray Kids, they aren't actually K-pop, but it is a Korean product of extreme discipline and training, and with definite standards. They all bow when their dance teacher enters for example. They observe higher standards. For their pulic image, they are always 'nice guys'.
FILM SCORE for Netflix.GENIE - Make a Wish - it looks like a good series. Premiered on October 3, 2025
This is what romance and a relationship should be. It should be like this.
It should be sweet and nice, and something lovely.
And she isn't twerking her backside in his crotch like in the Bad Bunny videos. If you want to know what you've got wrong, THIS is it.
(Stray Kids) - GENIE'
Watch This male actor in the clip has some charisma about him. He is unusual looking like French actor Vincent Cassel.
So, his name is Kim Woo-Bin and apparently these two worked together 10 years ago. Maybe he is a big star in Korea then.
The write up says : "Starring as Iblis, the genie in Genie, Make A Wish. Iblis is an evil but lovable genie, in your typical K-drama style. However, it’s his comedic timing that truly brings the show to life. He definitely makes the role."
I am also looking at the music of Bad Bunny as a different culture and the music has lots of good stuff about it.
Yet I am curious why the video I saw is featuring so much poverty and very kind of sordid, but he seems a character. The video is a character too. I'm learning as I go. The music is great, just commenting on the other stuff. I'm not in Latin America or Puerto Rico, but I just looked at it for contrast. At first the only thing I could find was Monaco which was not very impressive. Neither was the video which is more suited to an Epstein-Trump party. I still can't find the right words to put across the right expression yet. Let's say the culture lacks the discipline and precision of the Korean culture!
This music is better than 'Monaco', and obviously has some grunt to it. Apparently someone similar is Benito - or perhaps that's who Bad Bunny is! What do I know. (Okay, its his name.)
NUEVAYoL - DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS
Watch I have found it difficult to find much of his music videos.
So as I am a dancer, yes I could dance to this. - and that means the beat, NOT the dance shown in this video. . My version would be in class, its always only in a class. I was very lucky to be able to have that as my career though. .
But yes, definitely this type of dance is something I could do. I don't know what this style is, I thought it was Reggaeton. I don't think its Trap. I like the music, I don't like him so much. Well, actually he is quite funny. He is a character, but that doesn't make it a good thing. Maybe the music is Trap. "Trap music is a subgenre of hip-hop that originatedin the Southern United States in the 1990s, characterized by its rhythmic, minimalistic productions using synthesized drums and complex hi-hat patterns. The lyrics often focus on themes related to street life, drug culture, and personal experiences in urban environments."
NEW SECTION. This became quite controversial
and I think his music and stage performance should be separate from any resentment he might have from growing up as Puerto Rican. (Like who cares?!)
To me, his videos say a lot about how he views his 'culture' and the videos are mostly slutty women with big bums, twerking or bent over twerking into his crotch. I think this is a really bad and sad message to be sending out to the world, and to younger fans. This is not how people should be interpreting 'relationships'.
The fun is in the music and the dance.
But then people take it into something that is not that, and the actual fun gets thrown away. I think people really don't know this, and can't work out why what they are presenting is throwing everything away. Its not being uninhibited or 'free'. It's missing the point.
This actually goes for the 'Higher Self' person too, who tries so hard to be 'in' with 'Americans' and 'young' and has also been doing what 'throws things away'.
Also I can add after looking through Usher's music - and I like Usher as a performer (he's been around a long time) - he also misses the point! They try so hard to be, let's say 'open' but what he's saying is absolute xxxx. They try so hard to be what they are completely missing. Anyway, back to this.
As said at the beginning, the idea of love should be like the 'Genie - Make a Wish' . You look for something beautiful and precious.
When the comms began for the Higher Self person it was all about the soul level and about what is beautiful and precious.
If the HS person has had the kind of influence shown in the Bad Bunny videos, then that is a pathway to unhappiness.
There is absolute rubbish about the 'Bad Bunny' Super Bowl for 2026. This is really silly stuff.
There is a lot of stuff about the language. I don't understand this. I think this is paid publicity with some controversy to raise interest. It's an organized and paid for promotion. If the music and the show are good, and the style comes from Puerto Rico, then that's just what it is. It doesn't mean Puerto Rico is great, or Latinos have been underrated. It means the entertainment is good and popular.
So Benito goes on SNL after some people have allegedly said he shouldn't be doing the Super Bowl. Its an SNL comedy sketch and then it ends with a serious message apparently, from him. Like the contribution of the Latinos and Hispanics to the USA. Then he said everyone has 4 months to learn Spanish to know what he said. Truly, if he's talking about their contribution to the USA, then no-one has to ever speak Spanish.
On the other hand, there is an issue about the USA identity. But whatever the 'plan' was for integrating different cultures was supposed to be, it's all a concept that's just a mess.
Should people be speaking Spanish in the USA? Of course not. The USA is an English speaking country, not Spanish. It's the same question for the UK, should the UK become Muslim just because it has some immigrants there? Of course not. Those people should not have gone to the UK if they wanted to change everything. Same for the USA. Why did the people go to the USA then? If they want it to be the culture they left, why are they in the USA? Unless of course, the opportunities are in fact better.
The programme to get rid of illegal immigrants is how it should be. But if people who came to an existing country insist on trying to change the country, that country will end up being destroyed. The culture in the UK is a million times less civilized and less developed than it originally was.
I'll add an observation from these videos. Is the 'Hispanic' culture portrayed inferiour to the original culture of the USA? YES, big time. Music is good - the culture isn't good. And 'Bad Bunny' himself isn't a great example of anything good.
There are some comments by 'Bad Bunny' which clearly are in his interests for self promotion. Loads of publicity from it. Of course it sets up devisive arguments which are dividing people into separate groups. Bad Bunny is promoting that consciousness. I never gave any of this a second thought, but apparently those who are 'Hispanics' - presumably from the original Hispaniola - think there is some kind of issue. Then there are other demographics like the black community, so the end result is that trying to create a 'diverse country' clearly doesn't work. These two groups seem to be incapable of integrating.
In Singapore it is also a diverse culture but of Asians and English. It works absolutely fine.
It is still difficult to find where his best music is. I don't like his videos though, because even if done in a comedic way, they are still basically 'behavioural programming' in the typical sordid method of a zillion other music videos. And they are not even made necessarily to be 'amusing', although they do all tell a weird story. That's okay. Its a comment on the culture. But they are still typical of every bit of xxxx that the Western music industry produces.
The only thing I knew about 'Bad Bunny' was a photo he did basically showing his 'appendage'. Really, all of that and bum wiggling females, is a cheap way of getting people to watch, and it isn't funny no matter how its done. More like a comment on the reality around him. The videos are really Epstein party level - its just takes on a different vibe when its related to Epstein, yet that was the same as most Western music videos. Endless behavioural programming.
I've seen a few more videos now, and he likes having these ugly, sleazy females, twerking. So I'm a bit mixed on this now, but also I just can't find videos of whatever his best music is. And has this kind of xxxx been the reality in this person's life? It's horrible. Quite a lot sleazy.
Also, the culture that goes with this music is garbage, really low level stuff - as seen with the 'Notting Hill festival' in London. It is really bad. Great music - lousy, lousy culture. And that is the real problem.
This is my point, as demonstrated in this video.
Watch. 1 min. Music is good. The stage performance is good. The culture, the females they typically have, or as shown, the overall stuff is xxxx. I've been thru about 10 videos. The world does not need men who are like our friend Benito. He has an ego, and he should have, he is an entertainer, and he is good on stage. What is wrong, is that this is nothing to be proud of. The music, yes, be proud. The good beat stuff, that is. The consciousness as is shown, the sloppy looking audience, the greasy females, this is not very good. Showcase the music and the entertainment.
There is definitely some nice beat music in there, and also a lot that's not so interesting to me. The man himself, maybe a bit too full of himself. I have said I like his music when it gets into the beat of it, but his videos in general are revolting.
I'm sure the Super Bowl will be good entertainment. I think though, that even though this music is a product of the culture, pushing the culture spoils it.
This singer himself can no doubt hold an audience, but ultimately he's a jerk. Although I don't want to comment on that but I have been thru a lot of his videos. He's a jerk. . As an artist he's good, as he should be.
He's famous, popular and he has a voice, as in political voice. I'm sure Latinos have made a contribution to the USA. Why wouldn't they? But also why aren't they now called Americans? Why are they a separate thing called 'Latinos'? The ones there illegally, can still go. Actually, I know nothing of all this stuff that makes the USA not work.
For this artist I would say about 80% of his songs are boring. Its only when they get into the specific beat that things start to get good. I have just suffered through two more of his videos with mediocre songs,.
The first one he's standing naked by the road, covering himself strageically then his truck arrives and he jumps in the back so we get a view of his backside. The rest of the video is xxx to watch.
I went to another, totally dull, boring song and in this one another one of these overweight, sloppy looking females walks up to him in a god knows what which basically shows all her fat, disgusting backside, almost as if naked. She then does some twerking, then walks off These old slags are what he likes in his videos.
And silly me, thinks it should be about the music and the dance, the entertainment and the professional artistry.
No. I'll give Bad Bunny a miss. I'll watch the Super Bowl show when its on the internet. Right now, I'm moving on.

A great deal of the choreography for Stray Kids is from martial arts.
I.N "HALLUCINATION"
Watch IN has a very good voice so we are featuring him. Its about his singing not his dancing because his dancing is good but not the feature.
The sound is better with this video than the first one we had here.
I like this song very much, particularly I.N's voice,. But I like Lee Know's version too and this stage dance. Its up there with my favourites for music, dance and singing.
Watch So Good on stage. Great dancing from Hyunjin. Just love him. He is so good. Like crazy.
I definitely am a fan of Hyunjin's dancing and stage presence. I cannot wait to join the gym and begin something that gets me back dancing - which would be this kind of thing.
(But not his solo thing, don't think I would be doing that!)
k-pop hater listens to stray kids for the first time 2
Watch This guy discovering Stray Kids is a bit like how I felt discovering them.
The dance moves are based on martial arts, so they are very unique. I believe I might have mentioned the energy!! Felix the blonde with the deep voice is a dinki di Aussie born and from the North Shore, Sydney. The other one this presenter singles out as very handsome is IN. They are all good looking.
NEW Different video of LaLaLaLa Watch
Stray Kids
They have a current offering. I'm not really searching but this is for variety on this page.
I am staying with Stray Kids at the moment, because I like their dancing. I really like Hyunjin who was born on March 20th and is 25. It's not like they are 17 year olds or anything!!
Internet Comments' on their current stuff.
"우리 현진이 춤 실력은 정말 대단해..! 무대에서 에너지 넘치고 동작 하나하나가 예술 작품 같아..♡.. 보고 있으면 눈을 뗄 수가 없네"
Which is just what I was thinking too!
Well here we go, I'm adding this one and its okay. This is their latest stuff which is called a 'comeback' because they have spent all the time before, maybe a year, touring.
[얼빡직캠 4K] 스트레이 키즈 현진 ' < That's the title!
This is better. Watch This is the dance practice video. I quite like this.
Felix is good. He's in the blue track suit. Hyunjin is in white. with headscarf. Whoever did the choreo, he's added some really old classic hip hop moves into this one.
This version was Uploaded 6 hours ago. All the comments are on Hyunjin. This is better than the performance video. (Title is Ceremony).

This is an interview. two of these are Australian speaking in Korean. The first two in line. Interesting difference in culture Watch

The music from this page is now moved to the original 'Sound Project' page.
NEW SONG
Lee Know. Taste I LOVE this song. Watch < best video. Lee Know is singing the high notes.
This focusses on their dance. It is actual entertaiment. Danceracha.
This is just so excellent. Blue hair is Hyunjin, and black hair (this time) in the blue jacket, is Felix. It is an excellent song and also an excellent dance number. And to be a good dancer you can see they FEEL this.
I am a dancer and this was my job, my career.
I wasn't a backpacker. I wasn't a housewife. I worked in TV, and on stage in theatres, as a TV awards presenter too, - and I have missed that kind of high energy life. The covid stuff really messed things up.
I have decided that even though I am having real difficulties with my spine injury, I am going to join the gym in Hanoi to go to the dance classes. I NEED to dance! At least in Hanoi there is the opportunity to do this. It didn't exist in PV - there were some classes but they were not good - and PV is just not a happening place. So I will join the gym and do dance classses even if I cannot move as I want to. Hyunjin is my inspiration for how I want to move.
After my 3 months there, the weather will have improved in Siem Reap and God willing, I will return to Siem Reap (I leave here on Tuesday) and this is where I will stay with a yearly visa. I will be back here at the beginning of September. I can still go to Hanoi for a month (and again do dance classes) and I can also do shorter amounts of time in Singapore, and perhaps get to South Korea for about two weeks. I cannot do long haul flights over to Mexico, it is too dangerous for me with the injury now.
Music & Dance video
It is like a kind of ancient warrior + martial arts type of choreography. They do have a kind of 'martial arts hip hop' to their work. This must have been fun to do. Watch
Lee Know "Love me or Leave me" Watch I like his solo stuff. Lee Know is one of their best dancers and also one of the best singers. Seungmin is one of their main singers and also IN.
Of course, they are all around the age of 25 now, but they started out in 2018 so were still kids. Now they are good looking men, and their work is more mature.
NEW . 2024 Watch Not tired, okay stuff, but just something more to add. Hyunjin still has the hairstyle that suits him. This video repeats the last song twice.
Get Lit because they removed the video. Watch
(Thunderous)" M/V Watch
Most shows have all the guys in black except Felix often has a light coloured jacket, which of course makes him stand out. I like Felix and he definitely is the look of the moment, but I don't think he should make a solo career, except I suppose when they are all tired of being 'Stray Kids'. All these guys are good looking. I think especially Han (white sleeves but his hair is longer than usual but better shorter) IN (has a sort of red/brown hair colour this time and a bit longer but also better shorter). Both Han and IN look better looking in other videos. I have just discovered who Seungmin is, and of course Hyunjin is good looking, and Felix (the blonde but maybe he has sexy eyes) but all of them are good looking. Since Felix has blonde hair which stands out, I don't think he should have such an obvious light coloured jacket so the focus is on him - that is in fairness to all the others because it has to be a bit annoying and that will cause issues over time. You know they all work really hard. Best dancing start at the beginning its a 'new' song, but for dancing the best bit is about 15 seconds from around 9:30.
