EXO, Ko Ko Bop and The War

SO. The boys finally came out with Ko ko bop and their album and I'm super happy and excited to share it. First things first, here's the link to the music video. Stream as much as you can :3

But also, don't forget to comment and like the videos. Also, I heard that there will more MVs and I can't wait for them because there can never be enough of EXO asthetics :D 

Since I'm primarily Lay biased (I say primarily because lets be honest, all the members wreck your bias list, so you can't be sure), I was upset that he wouldn't be participating in this comeback. But I'm happy to have a comeback anyhow and I'm super proud of all the members for the hardwork they put in. Besides, our dearest unicorn is releasing is second album soon :) we'll hear plenty of him :)  

Now, on to The War. The album is amazing. I love all the songs and really, its hard to pick a favorite... but I think it might be What U Do. It just hypes me and is such a throwback to the old goldies :3 totally suits the sort of retro summer asthetic they have going on. And Going Crazy because it delivers on the vocal high notes and riffs that I was missing all this time.. 

Honestly though, I love their vocals and they could sing a list of vegetables and I'd probably still find that beautiful XD I'm super proud of the lead vocals because they're just amazing, as usual. But I really want to talk about Sehun. Boi. He has grown and I think I have tears in my eyes when his lines come on because our baby finally HAS lines TuT

Also, Kyungsoo raps? X_X I was dead enough and totally did not need that extra stress. Speaking of rap, Chanyeol has outdone himself this time. I was shook when rap for Forever came on. (cue death X_X)

I also love how all of them get singing lines and are no longer held back their roles as rappers and vocals.

And now, I'm gonna patiently wait for the live perfomrances and die for every stage. Who's with me? 

I just realized I barely mentioned thhe title song. Ko Ko Bop. Its a bop, that's for sure. Very different from EXO's usual sound (do they even have that? when they're always changing???)  but they totally deliver and I enjoyed it a lot. And lets not get started about the MV... 

or you know what, screw it. Imma talk about it and how it slayed me. Long story short, I was died and came back to life and died again because EVERYTHING IS SO DAMN GOOD! Like Kai's abs  and arms. And the choreo. And Baekhyun's mullet. Like I know a lot of people don't like it but lets be honest, he looks hot as with those freaking sequins decorating his forehead and eyes and whatever the hell. And those tattoos. Like seriously. We have enough problems as it is, we don't NEED to add tattoos to the list, okay? I have serious complaints about the maknaes being so rude, like stay in your freaking lane, bois. 

ALSO BLONDE CHEN!. I didn't know how much I needed that in my llife until I saw it. This era was made for him, let me tell you. 

Xiumin, forever my senpai, slaying and delivering on the visuals, casually steppinng all over my feels. Its okay though, he can step anywhere he wants TuT

Ugh, Suho and Chanyeol and Kyungsoo looking great and sounding amazing and just all out killing us all. 

Nothing out of the  usual, if I'm honest, since EXO kills me with every comeback. 

Fangirlling over them and I'm beginning to miss my Yixing, the cute sheep unicorn. I heard he filmed an MV is Paris. Lets hope it comes out soon and then, I'll fangirl all over him. 

Okay, I'll go now. Needed to let out all these feels before I burst. 

Kay then, see you guys later. Bye :3 

(will probably edit this to add pictures later XD)

I can't fully enjoy this comeback because Lay (my ultimate bias) isn't in it but still, I loved it!
My favorite songs on the album are definitely What U Do and Forever (which I knew I would love ever since Baekhyun's teaser came out tbh).

Chen is rising, I love him so much.

Kokobop--I honestly am still trying to get used to it... FJDSAFJ Also I have to say, I wish that Kai's Wolf Style wasn't brought back in this era.

I feel like compared to how I got slayed during Monster era and other eras, maybe its the fact that lay isn't in it, I haven't like full on flipped over this comeback haha. Like during the MV, I was like 'huh I guess its okay' jfkdlsajf

I am listening to the album songs right now, and I enjoy a few of them quite a bit actually.
