cloudshine's 2024 music highlights!

accessible version

intro:

hello again! this is my first ever proper page after my about page

as 2024 comes to an end, i think it's time to reflect over the amazing music we've gotten (and enjoyed) this year; from huge huge artists like Ariana and Charli, to tiny indie artists you've never heard of!

i think it's important to mention that some of the music on this list may not be from 2024, because this is a general "really cool music that i liked/discovered IN 2024" and not a handmade spotify wrapped

i highly recommend going through this list on your computer with headphones and not on your rectangular smart cellular device

short and low quality song previews will be available where needed

k-pop:

the biggest category! so many groups released such good music this year :)
and we also got the debut of the group i think shined the most in 2024:

ILLIT

hands-down best k-pop group of 2024!
unlike some groups i could mention, they didn't ruin their no-skip discography this year, giving us 9 amazing tracks. (excluding the weird tick-tack english version) with my personal favourite being Pimple !! :D

even the magnetic remixes are good - they're all in roughly the same bpm as the original, so you don't get that stretched out effect

i'm super happy the illit girls are successful considering all the hate they've gotten (and continue to get)f after the already traumatic event that was R U NEXT? lol
my bias is minju :D (or iroha,, idk)

they also have one of the best creative teams in kpop (2024), second after the aforementioned newjeans. the whole cherish my love concept with the "sarangnee" wisdom tooth thing was honestly genius - AND member yunah came up with it! someone put her in place of MHJ..
very excited for their activities in 2025 !!!

they're also the only group that i own physical merch of so i may be very biased here

LE SSERAFIM
