BM5's August 2022 Favorites

Favorite Interview
Aespa w/ Zach Sang


Aespa has been spending a lot of time in the US lately. One of the things they got to do while in the States was do a radio interview with Zach Sang. Here they get very comfortable, especially Giselle, and have such a great time spilling a bit on their past and present. I loved every second. Zach Sang interviews are always pretty great and it shows here with the laughs and heartfelt moments. Plus, seeing the other members showing their increased English proficiency is cute. Enjoy!

Favorite U.S. Single
Dance Now - JID


This song! Bro, JID has been one of my favorites of late, and this has solidified why. In this song you get hear his uncanny flows, witty wordplay, and down-to-earth content. All of this is placed over an ill beat that makes you want to bounce along to every rhythm JID laces over it. The chorus just hypes me up so much, and the video itself is also quite a fun experience. I can't recommend this more if you're into clever street raps.

Favorite Anime/YouTube Discussion
The ENTIRE History of Anime YouTube - Gigguk


Although this slants a little more to the YouTube side of things, if you're an anime fan, you must be aware of at least a few of the phases of AniTube. The way anime has been reviewed and discussed online has gone through many changes, but there hasn't been much content chronicling the metamorphosis. This was the inspiration behind the creation of this particular video presented by one of the earliest voices in Anime YouTube, Garnt of Anime Zone...currently Gigguk. There were some things noted that I didn't even know in the earlier days that exists. If that kind of thing fascinates you, give this a watch!

Miko's Music Stats 2021

2021 was the revival of a YouTube series I started 9 years ago by the name of Miko's Music Connection. So, my listening habits started to change on Spotify. Every entry in the series I binge the artists' discographies and later their videographies. Every now and then, I was able to listen to some new releases from my Need to Listen playlist. Maybe some time within this year, I can rewind back to my backlog of iTunes transfers. Enough rambling, here's some stats from my last.fm [and Spotify].
