I'm late to #KpopMonday. I currently have covid so I'm pretty low on energy, but I couldn't let Kpop Monday pass without posting Monsta X. Let's #ShakeThatBrass with a little saxophone in Mirror! I saw the Shownu and Wonho version live the first time I ever saw Monsta X. It was incredible and there were abs. The album version is a little brassy so I'm posting that version.

This week's #KPopMonday by @Erzbet has the theme of #ShakeThatBrass, suggested by @lil_meow_meow!

I'm choosing an all time favourite of mine, Brown Eyed Girls - "Warm Hole" / 브라운아이드걸스 - "웜홀":

I've just gone & asked Spotify to find me a whole playlist dedicated to #pop with #brass #shakethatbrass
@lil_meow_meow thanks for bringing #DaveBrubeck to #shakethatbrass - I discovered him in the 80s while at art college, and I think I thought I was the only person who knew about him! ( and Nina Simone, Louis Jordan.. have these on cassette 😂 )

For this week's #PopMonday theme: #ShakeThatBrass I present the Beyonce edition. 🐝

1. "Crazy in Love." The lead single off her solo debut, Dangerously in Love. Funny backstory: Rich Harrison wrote the hook but very few people got it. Even Beyonce was skeptical. "No one uses horns in the 21st century." Oh girl, if you only knew what was to come. https://youtu.be/ViwtNLUqkMY?si=lq2FL6aE5jEOakM9

2. In 2018, #Beyonce performed at Coachella & gave us one of the greatest live performances of our generation. Conceptualized as Homecoming at an HBCU w/ the 40-song setlist (!) reimagined as being played by a marching band. Here's the opening (Crazy in Love > Freedom > Lift Every Voice & Sing > Formation) https://youtu.be/jOSfoVdqSRk?si=83g24GIRCK10yzEU

3. It remains a travesty that Bey didn't win the 2016 Grammy for Album of the Year. Nothing was better than Lemonade that year. Nothing. And I still stand by that. Here's "All Night." https://youtu.be/gM89Q5Eng_M?si=hC3xClPsLtckqc76

So, I’m surprised this didn’t come up sooner on this week’s #KPopMonday, but I’m fairly sure the intro and chorus of #BTS’s Idol qualifies as #ShakeThatBrass material.

(Also reminding me of salsa and merengue I heard as a kid.)

One more for #KpopMonday, themed #ShakeThatBrass

While researching KPop with brass instruments, I found this awesome song, but could not find much information on the singer, Eldon. Never heard this name. But this is a good song❣️

Eldon - Ghost!, on youtube here:

It's an English song, but that still counts... right?
