BewhY “The Blind Star” Review

Hi, Hello, 안녕 :wave: 🏻

So within the past few months I’ve become absolutely obsessed with k-hiphop . Like it’s Lowkey all I listen to rn and it’s amazing. I would strongly suggest anyone who hasn’t experienced khh to toooooootaly check it out becus it’s literally one of my favorite things. The artists are amazing. The music is perfection. And the khh community is the best.

Anyway though, one of my specific obsessions right now is BewhY’s most recent album “The Blind Star”. It’s literally the best. So today while sharing this piece of art I hope I inspire you to check him out or if you already know him please comment below about him.

Curtain Call

Listen

Undeniable fact: curtain call is literally 1:32 minutes of pure genius. Like your girl ain’t kidding. I’m Lowkey a sucker for intros to albums because they always set the mood so when an artist makes a beautiful into I’m like “yo you doing a service to your society bless u :pray: 🏻”

uuuuuuuuuugh I just love how it starts and then it blends into a chant of fans and then fades out into a quick rap. Like our god, BewhY has just blessed us. He hath given us a gift. We shallt be blessed by our savior.

Like seriously tho the instrumental in this intro is no joke and BewhY’s rap is just perfection. Like # fight me, it doesn’t get better than this.

literally the only bad thing about this song is that it’s the intro so it’s not even 2 minutes. Like I strongly believe if curtain call was a full length song it would be my favorite song on the album, my favorite BewhY song and maybe even one of my all time favorite khh songs.

”God gave us the universe”

Red Carpet

listen

undeniable fact # 2: this song is literally 100 times better than any ordinary song just with the fact that gray produced it. And even without gray it’s an amazing song because BewhY don’t give us crappy tunes. Bro gives us perfection and that is exactly what this is.

right from the first note, you know you’re in for a treat. Like the song just carries so well. And the prechorus is just omg like you guys have no idea how many times imma say “perfection” and “ugh” in this post because those are literally the only words that can properly express the magic that is BewhY and his music and how they make me feel. Like I can’t.

ANYWAY, back to the song. The verses are just perfection. There isn’t one part of the song has a flaw. And I don’t know how it works but the instrumental changes sooooo many times but it still sounds amazing and fits together flawlessly. Like YESSS GRAY GET UR ISH.

like lets just agree that Gray + BewhY is a very talented and deadly duo

Bichael Yackson

Listen

okay but this so is just so lit there literally isn’t anyway to explain it. It starts solid. It stays solid. It ends solid. Like it’s a just a freaking solid song. Like how can u make suuuuch a lit song, please explain

the instrumental is so intense, which isn’t a bad thing at all it’s actually amazing, and BewhY just matches it perfectly, which is even more amazing.

tbh I really don’t have much to say about this song becus it’s just sooo hard to explain perfection

rating: 7.7/10

Temptation

Listen

the instrumental for this one is actually super unique which makes it standout in the album but I don’t think it’s any less amazing than the previous songs. Like it might not be my favorite on the album but I still strongly appreciate the unique style and sound.

rating: 7.8/10

9ucci Bank

listen

/cue aggressive horn noises/

I ain’t gonna lie. I did not like Gucci Bank when it first came out. I watched the mv and I was like naaaaaah man. But after listening to the album multiple times, it quickly grew on me.

it’s got a harsh beat like Bichael Yackson, so in that idea it is basically equally as lit. My only critic of the song is that the instrumental is a bit repetitive but what instrumental isn’t these days????

other than that the rap is amazing and toooooootally makes the song. AND OMG DOK2?????? Like yessssssss BewhY has blessed us again. Like even though I love BewhY, Dok2’s verse is just YES. Like I can’t explain it other than that.

Hewgeso

Listen

okay but like how does one explain perfection??? Like omg yes. This song is actually a bop. It’s like the boppiest song on the album and I’m living for it.

unlike, Bichael Yackson and Gucci Bank it’s chiller and slower and calmer. And unlike the other previous songs it’s just got a good vibe. Like you listen to it and all your problems disappear. I’ll say it again, it’s a bop. Literally perfect to play on a car ride.

Where Am I

Listen

okay so this song and the next one, are the two songs on the album that I actually don’t listen to very often but that absolutely does not mean they’re any less great as the others. It’s just that I prefer the others over these but hey everyone has their preferences. Imma still appreciate them no worries :wink:

it just starts off so interesting. It almost sounds like an old radio show from like the 60s. And it Lowkey continues throughout the entire song. And honestly that beginning just sets up the song perfectly. It’s so different from the others. It’s kinda like Hewgeso in that is chiller but not as boppy, which is fine, each song has its own flare.

also shout out to my dude Gaeko for featuring # love that man

My Star

Listen

as I said in the previous review, I don’t really listen to this song but imma still review it and of course appreciate it cus my man BewhY deserves all the love.

the beginning gives off a Lowkey school band feel and then it goes again into a chiller song. Like it Lowkey gives me a through back feel. I don’t really know how to explain it but it’s peaceful and very nostalgic for me.

like I don’t know why but it kinda brings up similar feelings for me as Good by Loco and Gray does. Maybe it’s just because Gray produces both but anyway both are great songs. Very meaningful. Very peaceful. Very perfection.

also, fun fact: I’ve been listening to the album while writing my reviews and this relisten to “My Star” has actually made me like it a lot more

rating: 7.5/10

Wright Brothers

listen

THE BESTIES ARE TOGETHER AGAIN

I love BewhY and CJamm’s friendship. They’re aborable. And I love their music. They work and fit so well together. This song is truly a pleasure.

again, this album is filled with so many different feels, and Wright Brothers is no different. The vibe I get from it is more of a Jam. Like Hewgeso is a bop. Bichael Yackson is a rave. Red Carpet is literally just perfection. Wright Brothers is just your classic jam and of course it’s made by the jam master Gray. The instrumental is just perfect and but that with both rappers’ verses like yessssss y’all slaying me soooooo hard.

in conclusion, the best is good. The rap is good. The song is just freaking good. Like, appreciate this jam.

rating: 10/10

Dejavu (Remastering)

listen

fun fact: Dejavu the original is actually my favorite BewhY song so when I saw it would be on the album I was freaking ecstatic. However when I first listened to it, I was kinda let down because the remastering changes a lot of the chorus and the buildup which my favorite parts. But as a song it’s grown on me like a lot. I still love the OG Dejavu though. Like that song is my freaking jam.

This song though, like of course the rap is amazing. Like it’s BewhY common y’all should know this by now. The standout for the remastering though is the strings. Like I believe there were strings in the original but this one adds a whole new layer of the instrumental and even though it’s different the overall sound is actually very interesting. Like you wouldn’t like strings would go with a strong base and a solid rap song but here ya go, BewhY proving you wrong and making an amazing song in the mean time.

rating: 9.5/10
