f(x) recently released a mini album entitled, 'NU ABO' and have already completed their comeback stage on the 3 music programs with their comeback song, 'NU ABO'.
When I heard that they just released a mini-album, I was expecting it to be something like 'Lachata' or 'Chu'. But, I was dead wrong. 'NU ABO' was something entirely different from what I had expected. So, here's the rundown of the songs.
NU ABO - This is, in my opinion, f(x)'s best song. First of all, the song is uber catchy and the chorus is just something that you will find yourself singing to. It is a very upbeat song that gets you moving to it even if you don't want to. And I must say, it is the first time I heard Amber singing rather than just rapping. And, she sounds good! Everyone else were pretty okay. But, the person that completely stole the whole show for this song was none other than Luna. Kudos to her! I had no idea that she had such a powerful voice and her long lasting note gave the song a final push to a whole new different level. [LOVE IT!]
Mr Boogie - I didn't really like this song. It sounded like something that SNSD would sing and at times, I found myself thinking that I heard Tae Yeon! The song sounds a little sleepy for me and it didn't keep me hooked on the song since I had wanted to cut if off during the mid part. As for the vocals, it was okay but Amber wasn't any where to be heard. [HATE IT!]
아이스크림 - This is a very cute/sugary song. I thought that the girls sounded pretty cute in this song singing about ice cream. Its a very pop-py kind of song so for those who enjoy it, this is the song you would like from this album. Not to worry, Amber was heard here. [LOVE IT!]
ME + U - I have a love/hate relationship with this song because the tune was kinda weird. I didn't like the tune because it made the girls sound a little strange to me. It sounded like another song that SNSD would sing too. But, I would have to say I loved it overall because of the bridge and Amber's rap. [LOVE IT!]
Surprise Party - I was quite surprised when I heard this. I thought it was going to be another upbeat song but I was wrong. Instead, it is a semi-upbeat song that doesn't have any auto tune! Hooray for that! Without that, I could hear the girls clearly and they sound awesome. But, the lyrics are kinda like about someone having a birthday? So, if you're having your birthday and would like f(x) to wish you a happy birthday, put this song on loop! [LOVE IT!]
Sorry (Dear Daddy) - This is another song to love. This is entirely different from the usual songs that f(x) sings. There is just a simple beat to this song and the crystal clear voices of the girls. It showcases the girls' talents and it made them sound absolutely beautiful. I was hoping that maybe Amber would sing a few lines but it seems to me that she was missing again. But, still, another song that goes to the top of my list for best songs! [LOVE IT!]
I give this mini-album - 9.5/10
