So, we all love a good hype playlist, right? Whether it’s pregaming, working out, or just preparing to have a good old Netflix binge, we all love music that makes us go and want to get ready for a good time. We want to get HYPED! Now, we might not all love K-Pop, and to be fair, I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. However, for those of us who want a good mix-up for your hype playlist, need to impress the bae with a friggin excellent song selection, need a new party set, or are just interested in listening to a new genre of music, then this list is for you!
1. Crazy – 4MINUTE
Guys, the opening raps to the verses kill me every time. Like, for real, who isn’t shook by hearing, “Yeah, I’m the female monster!”
2. Sugar Free – T-ARA
THAT DROP THOUGH. THAT DROP.
3. FANTASTIC BABY – BIGBANG
Is this song cheesy? Yes. Yes, it is. Will you be able to get, “Wow, Fantastic Baby” out of your head for the next three days? No. No, you won’t.
4. Gangnam Style – Psy
A classic.
5. I Am The Best – 2NE1
Because everyone deserves to get a little cocky once in a while.
6. Hard Carry – GOT7
Look, whenever you’re getting pumped at the beginning of the song, you know you’re in for a good time.
7. BOY IN LUV – BTS
Okay, so BTS does have a lot of hype songs, it’s hard to pick just one. This one stands out from the rest though, in that, “Why are you making my heart shake?,” and “Say what you want” are guaranteed to get stuck in your head every single time.
8. RED – Hyuna
Hyuna’s similar to BTS in that she has a lot of hype songs too. But, you got to look up the lyrics for this one. Trust me, they’re pretty great.
9. Heart Attack – AOA
*clears throat* AH YEAH (Brave Sound), AND IT GOES A LIL SOMETHING LIKE THIS
*lyric drop*
10. Ah Yeah – EXID
Dude, the sinister overtones and the split between the vocal sections and the rap sections, plus that high note at the end? Killed, dead, deceased, life slayed.
