He’s made other music recommendations in the past ( like here and here, and especially here) but we’re keeping this list to twitter for now. (We’ll be updating it every now and then, so it may be handy to bookmark this if you need a reference.)
And just so we can imagine him jamming to his ipod:

no review of the song?
Er… he said it was a “good song.” lol.
was asking about the site. Don’t you guys usually you guys your insight on the songs?
Ah, we would if it were a Taeyang or Big Bang song (or, I suppose depending on the one writing the post.) Didn’t think anyone would be interested considering that we rarely post on Taeyang’s tweets at all.
Did you like the song though? I loved the composition and instrumentation – so pretty. The sound seems very much in keeping with some artists on Taeyang’s list (The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Miguel) and less like “traditional” Korean R&B. Which would be interesting if Taeyang is leaning in that direction for his own work. The strength with those artists also tend to be in the writing though, so I’d be interested in a translation of the lyrics but have not been able to find one yet. (Would appreciate a link if you find one.) I haven’t listened to the whole 24:26 album, though I liked Boogie On&On too. The album doesn’t seem to stick to any one musical theme.
For those who are new to Beenzino, he is a much respected underground hiphop artist (more recently affiliated with the Quiett and Dok2’s Illionaire Records.) He’s part of both Jazzyfact and Hotclip. Check out his fansite http://fuckyeahbeenzino.tumblr.com/ where they also feature samples of his music. Personally, I really liked Jazzyfact’s album in particular, though he’s got a lot of great songs.
(He also followed Taeyang on twitter as a result of the recommendation, haha.)
His music is kind of like Jinbo – placing more emphasis on the lyrics (rap durrr) and the arrangement/production than on the main melody itself. It’s not ethereal as Jinbo’s but I would love to have all the instrumentals though.
Look at the list, I’m really interested in what Taeyang’s album is gonna sound like. Eeeeek This one feels so far away.
Not gonna lie, Beenzino is kind of a hottie. Thumbs up.
thanks blue
He’s so handsome in that pict,,
YB has the greatest music recs. I love almost each and every single artist/song he’s suggested.
Boy has amazing taste in music.
I’m so excited to see what he has in store for us on his album considering the music he’s been listening to.
idk if its just me but didn’t bae also recommend R. Kelly – Love Letter?
Not on twitter, but he did recommend the album on Naver Music in an interview with Big Bang (it’s one of the links included at the end of the above post.) He’s made many other music recommendations throughout the years since debut – such as to Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” and Maxwell’s “Whatever, Whenever, Wherever” – but that’s a much bigger research project.
ohhh
taeyang dẹp trai wa’

Loving Passion Pit!
