[NEWS] EXO’s Best Tracks of 2022

"Clash Music: The 20 Best K-Pop B-Sides From 2022

Chen - I Don’t Even Mind

EXO’s Chen is truly the gift that keeps on giving. In his latest release, ‘Last Scene’, the calming singer further explores the ballad genre he’s become synonymous with in recent years. While other B-sides from the EP touch on the orchestral elements of a ballad, ‘I Don’t Even Mind’ differentiates itself by taking the neo-R&B route instead—a first in Chen’s discography. The soft plucks of the added guitar go hand-in-hand with the warmth and comfort illuminating the singer’s voice, like a star touching down on Earth. Even its lyrics, also written by Chen, are breathtakingly beautiful as he navigates love while practicing patience and consideration toward the other person’s feelings for him.

It also doesn’t hurt that seeing Chen perform ‘I Don’t Even Mind’ in the rain sealed the deal as one of his most astonishing ballads yet.

Suho - Decanting

It’s borderline alarming how each EXO member can encapsulate their chosen styles in one album, let alone two. In Suho’s sophomore EP, ‘Grey Suit’, the fearless leader takes listeners on another ride through his unique take on the modern rock genre for a K-pop audience. With different variations of soft rock emanating from the six tracks, ‘Decanting’ delivered on a sensual level that was somewhat surprising but welcomed. With a touch of neo-soul, the track is effortlessly soothing, allowing the listener to melt away as Suho murmurs sweet nothings—lust dripping from every syllable.

Suho, "Hurdle"

How would you define Suho? The upstanding, chiseled leader of EXO. Lover of Dad jokes and ballads. Secret goofball and bonafide gentleman. We first witnessed a deviation through EXO’s 2019 banger “Obsession” when Suho emerged as his “X-EXO” alter-ego (the group’s baddie counterparts). Glitter, sexy smirk, red hair waxed into horns, with a cropped bolero revealing ripped abs, it was a seismic shift felt across K-pop. Three years later, after returning from his mandatory military enlistment, he’s given us something to howl at again. Grey Suit, his sophomore EP released in April, was a minxy, sultry, multigenre album, and off it, the anthemic “Hurdle” was a revelation. An unexpected swerve from Suho, who ricocheted between a tight falsetto and honeyed baritone effortlessly over distorted guitars, the song was arguably his take on ‘90s Brit-pop — think Pulp or Suede, but brighter, more funkadelic, and less slurry. It was an ambitious foray that paid off, leaving us echoing Suho’s opening lines, “Oh, what’s your secret formula?”

15. “Grey Suit” – Suho

In a closet full of grey suits, the music video for SUHO’s 2022 title track was one of the most symbolic videos of the year. The music video tells the story from two perspectives, his ‘grey outward life’ and the ‘colorful artist life’ that’s hidden within. Clothes are our way of showing our colors, personalities, and mood. A grey suit, therefore, symbolizes an empty palette. The music video also used still frames which symbolize how his life and career came to a pause upon his enlistment, something he needs to restart now. At the end of the music video, we see him break out of the closet into the parking lot, symbolizing that he has finally found his color again.

9. “Bite” – D.O.

Another moment where the drama’s actor is also a talented singer occurred in the legal drama Bad Prosecutor with D.O. of EXO. The vocalist performed the third OST for the show, “Bite”, a song about the animalistic hunger of his character for justice. The song’s emotions were amplified by D.O.’s acting on screen as listeners could picture his character in their minds. Like his character, D.O. armed “Bite” with badass energy and grit."
