Dena – “on read”

On February 27, Taiwanese singer-songwriter and YouTuber Dena released her new single “on read.” Her first single since being signed to Warner Music Taiwan, Dena’s “on read” ripples with a heartache that has not yet healed. Minimal production and a simple guitar line allow Dena’s gentle voice to shine, even as she desperately sings, “can I not go through it all again / don’t wanna leave my heart open and on read.” In her Instagram caption celebrating the release, Dena dedicates “on read” to those who have experienced the rollercoaster of emotions that come with a (sort-of-but-not-really) heartbreak. Her latest track is “like the diary you never knew you needed for your heart to heal from all of the confusion love brings💌,” she wrote. The relatable singer-songwriter also reached out with a virtual hug and comforting words, saying, “hang in there guys, Dena’s got chu🫶🏼.”

T-Pop boyband ATLAS is back with their latest single, “I Got That Magic.” Just a few months after the release of their second studio album, Mangosteen, members Erwin, Muon, Poom, Nice, Jet, Junior, and Tad have returned with a new digital single to keep their fans — called ALIAS — excited. “I Got That Magic” is a hip-hop song tinged with pop elements produced by Benlussboy, one-half of the production duo Luss. The song is a braggadocious track, with lyrics meant to set ATLAS apart from others when it comes to getting the attention of someone they’re interested in. “Girl, you know I bring the energy,” and “I can be the one for you, making everything you wish come true,” are exclaimed by the members throughout the song. The production makes the song even more interesting, mixing different sounds and elements. During parts of the song, there’s a more rock undercurrent, while during the chorus the beat gives off a dubstep vibe, making the song as unique and flavorful as the seven members of the group.

RiTchie, Aminé – “Dizzy”

American rapper RiTchie, formerly of the hip-hop group Injury Reserve and current member of the duo By Storm, has teamed up with fellow rapper Aminé on the catchy rap song “Dizzy.” The song serves as the second single from Ritchie’s upcoming solo debut album, Triple Digits [112], set to be released on April 5. In the head-bop-inducing track, the duo delivers witty verses critiquing those who prioritize materialism over everything else. In the first verse, Ritchie criticizes the selfish behavior of someone considering their own wants over their loved ones’ needs: “If you would stick your neck out for anything / Why don’t you get your girl a little diamond ring? / And maybe buy your kids all some new clothes / ‘Cause you be staying fresh, but they got holes.”

Aminé adds his signature humor and deadpan delivery to the mix, calling out absurd behavior with the lines, “Look, you the type to link-and-build at a urinal (True) / Your granny died, and you taking fit pics at the funeral.” Together, the dynamic duo questions the source of the person’s lavish lifestyle, pointing out his lack of a job and realizing that it must be because of rich parents. 

With the release of “Dizzy,” it seems Triple Digits [112] may be on track to be the best album of the year.

Dreamy and spacey, the song is a sentimental ode to the mundane but precious moments that we share with our aging family members. Hans.’s laid back rap style which is just barely intelligible is contrasted by Meaningful Stone’s trademark bright sound. Filmed in the cold Korean winter, this song is an ode to the bittersweet patches of warmth we find within our homes and families.
