Let’s see if I can break the drag music curse with the help of Allie X :cheer:

I’m still in my “experiment outside of kpop” era, but I’m now very hype to see what you’re sending!

Confirmed!

Nothing particularly major popping out at me yet, but we'll see what comes by confirmations~

What a solid semi! Gonna have to listen again to dwindle down my choices to just 10.

Re-confirmed to something I just found randomly. Sounds nice and I’m happy with it, so let’s gooooo~

teehee jk back to the drawing board

Confirmed something that is VERY Kim Petras-esque. Hoping no one else snagged it before me and it meets the veto requirements!

Changed up my order about a dozen times, but I got my votes in!

IT IS SO GOOD WTF

Lil Mariko is the natural BJFestivalen winner and I hope you all realize that!

Confirmed an absolute smash hit in the making!

Now I know this final is incredibly strong, but WOW am I low... thanks to all who pointed Aesthetica so far!

Aesthetica's votes are in!

i disagree cody because aesthetica will WIN!

Voted! :)

WOW! I just have to say that just from looking at my semi, I’m in LOVE with the absolute power in the run from Utopia to TARO Bellamia. What a great draw, despite being near the end of the semi. A few others I recognize in my semi like That Kid and Tia Kofi (among others), so I’m very excited to sink my teeth into this one!

Confirmed some sparkly, emotional hyperpop. Very much the baby of Hannah Diamond, Sophie and 100gecs imo.

No kpop for Aesthetica this month! I think we might be going hyperpop... but do I go the meme-y route or emotional? Both are bangers in their own right.

I really question the taste level of this forum sometimes... but thanks for those that did vote Aesthetica. And that new flag is cute! Might have to adopt it. Back to the drawing board.

Voted!

So is there gonna be a semi 2 listen through? Or are we getting neglected 😭

As far as semi 2, Sunday would personally be best for me!

I'm very happy I'm not in semi 1, that looks like it's gonna be ABSOLUTE CARNAGE! Excited to dive into the songs from semi 2 as the only ones I know ahead of time are the two anniversary entries!

Aesthetica has come back with the kpop hotness for the 134th Buzzjack Song Contest! Korean American Jessi hits you hard with crunchy guitars and a breakdown to die for paired with her signature raspy vocals. This is Jessi's second time appearing in the Contest, although the first time she has represented Aesthetica. Will Jessi do better this time around, or will she suffer a similar fate to her 127th Contest DNQ for POPHub? Time will tell. OEu1OWf8ezU
