BIBI – KAZINO: Music Review

On April 29th, BIBI released her new single titled “KAZINO”. The cover/teaser photos for this song are quite interesting. I honestly don’t know what to expect –

Kim Hyung Seo, who goes by the stage name BIBI is a South Korean singer managed by FeelGhood Music. She debuted on May 15th, 2019, with the digital single “BINU”. The first time I saw her was on the audition program – The Fan and I fell in love with her voice and vibe. She is so quirky and adorable. I have been following her releases since her debut, and her songs are excellent, so I have my fingers crossed for “KAZINO”(Please note – this is a real-time review, meaning I am typing down my exact thoughts while listening to this song.)

Reaction to Official MV:

Yesss!!! I have English subs.
Alright, I think this is going to be a darker concept compared to the previous two songs I just reviewed.
The music video starts out with a lady being dunked in water. It seems someone is trying to drown her? And she’s clearly struggling.
Yep, definitely a darker vibe.
Wait a minute? So this casino bets on women and BIBI is trying to win a game?
She needs to win that game to save the lady.
Am I right?… This is sick, and the fact that such things do happen in real life makes it even more disturbing.
All the same, my girl BIBI is looking FINEEEE!!!
I love her vocal tone. She transitions smoothly from her full voice to her falsetto.
Also, the vocal layering on this is nice. Basically, BIBI sounds beautiful.
This song started out with some soft piano and guitar in the background, but things got groovy once the beat came in towards the chorus.
BIBI is vocally riding this beat, and “KAZINO” is officially a BOP.
Oooh, now I get the name. It’s a play on the word casino… Okay.
This music video is really dark. BIBI got chocked and injured for interfering. Now they’re dragging her bloody body casually out of the casino.
WHAT A WOW!!!
Did I just see Tiger JK?? Nice cameo.
For those who don’t know, Tiger is the founder of BIBI’s record label.
Ooh, so she isn’t dead, but they brought her to the main boss, who happens to be Tiger JK.
Okay, she won the game people. Thank God.
I love how the instrumental slowed down again once she won.
The bridge sounds so siren-like.
Suddenly everyone is down. At the beginning of this video, I saw a scene where BIBI poured some powder into a bottle, so did she spike their drinks??
And now the groovy hook is back.
Yes, she saved the lady. Good job.👏👏👏
“KAZINO” gets a 10/10 from me.
I love that the music video has a clear and intriguing storyline. Plus, the song goes mad hard.
