And here are our favorite boy groups songs of the year from Number_i, Genin Wa Jibun Ni Aru, Yo Ga Yo Nara!!! and many more
This is part of Idol Watch’s Best Idol Songs of 2024. You can return to the main list here.
Hip hop still rules supreme as a foundational style behind a good portion of the boy groups featured on this list. If many acts turned to the genre to exude cool and flex their worth to the meanest beats, then it’s for the best that the group responsible for the number-one spot boasted to be literally the Greatest of All Time on their debut single with a production that’s equally audacious as their claim. They didn’t test the waters so much as they aggressively rocked the sea, creating the biggest and noisiest of waves.
