After Heize released her first mini-album, ///, I immediately became a fan of her sound. It is interesting, different, slightly jazzy, but also has a bit of an R&B feel to it. All of her music makes you feel that groove. After listening to Wish & Wind (바람), my love of her music was reconfirmed, as you can read in my post here. So, naturally, I ordered a copy. Even more naturally, I spent the extra few bucks to get the special edition… you will see why very shortly.
You can buy a copy of this album on Amazon here. If it is sold out, the normal version is still a thing, which you can get here on Amazon.
I also do a lot of my album shopping on Music Plaza LA. Additionally, if you have never used Music Plaza before, this link will get you an extra 5% off of your first purchase!
You can also order a copy of the album from an eBay, as they typically have good prices. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the E-Bates extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
What is E-Bates?
E-Bates is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Ebates, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over 80$ back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used EBates before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using EBates. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Sokoglam typically has 3%. These percentages Many other major retailers are on there as well.

K-Points: 1752/5
Okay, I didn’t think this album could get any better, but the added an ACTUAL Jenga game to the album that has a track called Jenga. I hope she creates a song called Mouse Trap so that I can play that hot mess again! She really broke the album game with this EP. Fire tracks, fire album. Just Fire. This is such a treat to her fans, and I totally approve of it. Everything seems so personal, and just so much extra effort was put in that it is ridiculous?
Should you buy a copy of this album? Absolutely! You won’t regret it, as it has bonus value. Can you just stream it? Of course, and you definitely should. It is a really good mini album. I approve of every track.
What is your favorite track from the mini-album? What is your favorite Heize track out of all of the tracks? Let me know in the comments!
사랑합니다!
