S4E2 - K-Pop: BTS (Overrated) & NCT (Underrated) - with Reggie C Crawford

Over/underrated: a music podcast with Fran and Babs

A.k.a. some oldies talk about that newfangled music making waves across the world!

We're joined by the lovely Reggie C Crawford - an audio editor, podcaster, audio engineer and voice-artist - who got into K-Pop thanks to his daughters and provides an excellent introduction to the genre to n00bs Fran & Babs.

Reggie wants to make clear he is a BIG BTS fan - but nominated them as overrated because, well, they're one of the biggest bands in the world at the moment! Do Fran & Babs think they're too hyped up or will they be won round to the charms of Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook?

Fran & Babs are also introduced to mega-group NCT, which consists of 23 members divided into four different sub-units 🤯 Reggie's music picks are mostly from Seoul-based NCT 127 who have some undeniably catchy tunes...

We recommend checking out Reggie's company and podcast Sonic Embassy - Babs has guested on two episodes talking about potatoes and pasta!

You can find the playlist for this episode on Spotify - it includes all songs from our playlists, plus bonus ones from other artists we've discussed during the episode. We also recommend watching dance practice videos for all these songs because they are INCREDIBLY IMPRESSIVE!
