     Verbal Jint and Sanchez dropped their mini album titled 'Yeoja'. I don't know about you but I like the name of the album, after all it is a word we often use in the blog here. HEY! HEY! 
        

      The mini album contains seven songs - 'Good times', 'Favourite!', 'Spot the difference', 'My type 2.5', 'Doin it', 'Body to body' and 'Good night'. Verbal Jint and Sanchez have collaborated with so many people in this album too!

      The album begins with a toast to all the good things in life. 'Good times' is a song which talks about living the good life, surrounded by good people and eating some good food. The songs disses out the unnecessary things that could possibly get in the way of leading the good life. The song merely seeps us into the correct mood for the coming tracks.

      The second track was chosen to the promotional track and there are many reasons to why it could have been chosen. 'Favourite' is a happy cheerful song that speaks of meeting the one by accident. The song states that the man would be careful this time as his past relationships have taught him plenty. What is unique about this track is it's multiple references- the lines your eyes, your nose and your lips could easily been a reference of Taeyang's' Eyes, Nose, Lips' and there is also the mention of 'Cray- on'- a reference to GDragon, but what possibly takes the winning cake is the direct shout out to Choa of AOA. The lyrics state that the current lady love is his favourite just as Choa is. Not the best confession to make in reality but nonetheless is a daring statement to hear even in a song.

      'Spot the difference' is a song that talks about being in love and the sense of being together with the lady love. The love song is sweet and romantic and in a way does continue with the previous track which is technically a confession. This song has a mellow beat and an overpowering melody. A refreshing song to listen to.

      Kang Min Kyung of Davichi feature in the song of compatibility 'Type 2.5'. This song goes for a more club like feel with its clapping beats and its caressing guitar riffs. The song continues with the theme of love as this song builds on the ideas of "made for each other". Musicality-wise, this song has so much in it and in all is power packed to be a favourite of many.


      My favourite tracks are the coming two songs which all talk about ahm-ahm!

      Bumkey features in this song about a woman who stays in the relationship only for its intimacy. 'Doin it' talks about the girl who hates everything the man is or does but stays by him because he is good in bed. This song delves into the dark side of relationships that have lost their meaning. Not the conventional type of song but hey it was actually nice to listen to.

      'Body to body' or more literally translated as 'Under your ear' is a more heated track to listen to. The song as such talks of intimacy and the acts of such. The song is sung in a whisper like manner as the lyrics glide over the music. Le of EXID bombards into the tracks and adds dynamics to the already visual track. In all, this song is seductive and alluring.

      After reaching new heights with their love songs, the two members bring the album to its close by singing 'Good Night'. This song has a penetrating melody that would resonate deep within. The song is unlike the others in terms of mood, tempo and beat that it is surprising and draws much attention to it. And the album thus comes to an end with is sorrowful departing song.
