The story of Peter Pan has been told countless times, but the characters surrounding Peter have their own histories beyond the familiar rivalry between hero and villain. SUPER FANTASY returns to Neverland with a release that follows Captain Hook’s past, his connection to Peter, and the choices that shape his future. Across three connected songs, Neverland approaches a familiar fairy tale through the perspective of a character whose story often begins and ends with his role as

For two days, Saint Paul RiverCentre became a place where K-Pop fans could spend an entire weekend doing what they love without having to choose just one way to participate. KPOP MINNECON returned August 29–30 for its second year, expanding into a two-day event filled with music, dance, creators, artists, vendors, panels, and the smaller fan-to-fan interactions that tend to make conventions memorable. The convention grounds stayed busy with random dance play, karaoke, dance w

To break out means to escape from something that has been holding you in place, to move beyond a limit, expectation, or familiar space and make room for something new. That idea became the quiet thread running through K-Prodigy’s Breakout Tour stop in Atlanta on September 4. Featuring Toshi, JONTWO, AVENU, and raph, the night celebrated each as they brought a different story, sound, and personality into the room, making the meaning of “breakout” feel like the act of allowing

Paledusk returned with a brand-new single inspired by a football match. Their latest single, "GOLDEN GOAL" reflects the chaotic trajectory of the band as well as their relentless drive to keep pushing forward. Their music has always been willing to get loud, heavy, unpredictable, or all three within the same track, and "GOLDEN GOAL" is no different as it takes the intensity of a football match and channels that experience into a song about chasing the goal ahead, taking on w

There are concerts you attend, and then there are concerts you experience. Jay Park’s “Serenades & Body Rolls” stop in Duluth, Georgia, on September 8 was definitely the latter. Walking into Gas South Arena, there was an unmistakable sense of excitement in the air. Fans had come ready to sing, dance, scream, and, most importantly, see Jay Park live. From the moment the lights went down, it was clear that this was going to be a night to remember. Jay Park has always been an ar

There are concerts that entertain you for a few hours, and then there are concerts that take you back through an entire chapter of your life. BIGBANG's September 11 performance at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, was one of those nights. As the lights went down and thousands of VIPs filled the stadium, there was an overwhelming feeling that something special was about to happen. BIGBANG was back in the New York area, and for many fans, it had been more than a d

Sixteen humanoid robots dancing in Times Square is not exactly an everyday sight. On September 21, the unusual scene brought K-Pop, robotics, and a crowd of curious New Yorkers together before the robots headed to Rockefeller Center, where another unexpected moment was waiting: a humanoid robot standing beside the man it was modeled after.

Jay Park brought his, long awaited, Serenades and Body Rolls tour to New York City’ Infosys Theater at MSG on September 11, 2026. The sold out, nearly 6,000 seat venue was buzzing from the moment the doors opened. Friday night wasn’t just a concert — it was a full‑scale takeover, the kind of night where the energy hits you in the chest before the beat even drops. New York crowds are famously hard to impress, but this audience showed up loud and ready. The mix of longtime J

By the time ONE PACT walked onto the stage at Atlanta’s Center Stage on September 2, the members had already spent the summer getting used to bigger rooms, louder crowds, and the kind of moments that make a tour feel like more than another string of dates. Just weeks earlier, the group had been in Los Angeles for KCON LA 2026, appearing on the Toyota Music Den Stage before also taking part in the Day 3 M COUNTDOWN programming at Crypto.com Arena. At the Toyota Music Den Stage

The cool autumn air may have moved into New York City this week, but JAY B brought the heat on the fourth stop of his ‘2026 JAY B tape: roots USA tour’. He was back at the 2,000 seat Palladium Times Square, a venue he last performed at in 2016 with GOT7. As a longtime fan, seeing JAY perform felt less like attending a concert and more like spending the evening with an artist who genuinely knows how to connect with his audience. From the moment he stepped on the stage, the

Number_i return with REBON / BUGS LIFE / DIGITAL GIRL, a new EP that brings together three different perspectives on where the group is headed. From revisiting the energy of “BON” to turning digital glitches into a hard-hitting performance track and exploring love in an increasingly online world, the release gives Sho Hirano, Yuta Jinguji, and Yuta Kishi room to experiment with both sound and concept. Number_i officially formed on October 15, 2023, bringing together three art

A year after "PIECES" introduced the hope and uncertainty surrounding the finalists of BMSG's THE LAST PIECE, STARGLOW responds with "WISHES." Released on September 22, the new single shifts the narrative from questions about the future to reflections on past events. STARGLOW was formed through BMSG's THE LAST PIECE, and the five members brought significant experience to the audition. RUI, the first trainee at 13, previously appeared on THE FIRST, showcasing his standout voic

ALLDAY PROJECT return with their second EP, CRASH, a five-track release that pushes the co-ed group into heavier, stranger, and more playful corners of their sound. From industrial hip-hop and bass-heavy dance production to Brazilian funk and acoustic pop, the project keeps changing shape without losing the attitude that made the group stand out from the beginning. Photo provided by THEBLACKLABEL Made up of ANNIE, TARZZAN, BAILEY, WOOCHAN, and YOUNGSEO, ALLDAY PROJECT debuted

Lil Cherry and GOLDBUUDA are back with “Yummy 88,” a new single and music video that brings the Korean sibling duo’s love of food, hip-hop, and completely unapologetic indulgence back to the center of their music. Following “DRESS2KILL” earlier this year, the pair return to the food-focused world that first became a major part of their identity with “MUKKBANG!” six years ago, this time turning a chaotic kitchen into the setting for a full-on celebration of eating, cooking, an

Before they had debut dates, or any idea of where their careers would lead, ONE OR EIGHT's SOUMA and STARGLOW's TAIKI were two trainees pushing each other to become better. Years later, that history has found its way into music with "ONE WHO GLOWS," a special three-song session released on YouTube that brings the two artists back together for a high-energy rap exchange. SOUMA and TAIKI first met during their trainee years, when both were working toward the same goal and spen

SOTA HANAMURA has found an unexpected subject for his latest solo release: ramen. Released September 18, “キミヲサガシテタ Searching for You” serves as the new TV commercial song for Osaka-born ramen chain Dotonbori Kamukura, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, while giving SOTA another opportunity to explore the urban pop sound developing around his solo work. Best known as the main vocalist of Da-iCE, SOTA began building his solo career in 2026 with the digital pre

Adam Fan makes his English-language debut with SKYFALL, an eight-track album released September 16 that brings together melodic rap, trap, Rage, rock, and dance. The project introduces Fan to an English-speaking audience through a collection that gives its individual tracks room to take on different moods and production styles. Known in China as Fan Chengcheng, Adam Fan first gained wider attention through the survival program Idol Producer before debuting as a member of NINE

XG returns with “DEPENDS,” a new digital single released November 6 and the group's first new music since January's THE CORE - 核. Rather than arriving with another large statement, the song takes a more reflective approach, built around the idea that not every question about identity, growth, or the future has an immediate answer. JURIN, CHISA, HINATA, HARVEY, JURIA, MAYA, and COCONA officially debuted as XG on March 18, 2022, with “Tippy Toes,” establishing a group that has

Rolling Loud is heading back to India this December. Following its debut in 2025, Rolling Loud India will return for its second edition on December 12 and 13, 2026, once again bringing the international hip-hop festival to the country in partnership with District and with Budweiser 0.0, SHEIN, and HSBC India.

Odetari, SatapanP, and Hatsune Miku come together for “Party Monster,” the latest release from BEYOND BORDERs. Released September 9, the single brings electronic production, rock influence, and hip-hop energy into one track, pairing Odetari’s hard-hitting style with SatapanP’s Vocaloid production and Miku’s unmistakable virtual vocals. Odetari has built his music around the kind of electronic sound that moves quickly and hits hard, drawing from hip-hop, club music, and the in
