JYP really milking the girlies on their last meters for all  it’s worth 

And he’s succeeding in it with big album sales, growing international popularity and record-setting tour attendance. So I don’t entirely blame him I guess. But I just know the girls are exhausted

after the last time Blackpink came back:

1. STAYC debuted and released 4 albums with 15 songs in total 

2. aespa debuted and released 1 album and 4 singles with 10 songs in total 

3. ENHYPEN debuted and released 4 albums with 31 songs in total

4. TWICE had 8 comebacks with 48 songs in total (including Japanese releases)

Twice nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[OrgVisual]

 

I can't @ SOME people still saying the vocals and fanchants are pre-recorded no wonder they are stanning their tone-deaf faves

 

[BadX]

Aespachella doesn’t really have an it factor other than the fact that they turned their mics on and being their… idk US concert debut(?). Objectively, it did its job being quite polished and well rounded of a performance, but there wasn’t exactly a high point that was like “wow!”

[DanyelP23]

Honestly one way in which SM took from YG regarding AESPA / BlackPink is creating a moment of excusivity. Just like the way each time BP releases music feels exclusive (bcs they have rare comebacks), the idea in itself of AESPA singing live became an EVENT of its own. 

[Harrier]

It's a heinous crime that BP probably only have one comeback left before the inevitable YG contract mess/Baemon replacement. I don't want to fight blinks bc I like BP and I'm mad about how absurdly content starved their run has been too 

 

Like, I kind of get the Coachella gatekeeping, It was a special, historic moment for Blackpink, in the context of a career where there aren't that many moments.

Kim Soo Hyun sweetie...

He's literally THEE most popular actor in Koria at the moment. He's quite acclaimed too

That's pretty much on the same level as aespa's set, I don't see anything outstanding here.

 

I always cackle at Jeknee breathing for life after the dance break.  

 

 

 

No it was not. Bc except singing live for the first time, the performance  didn’t have any outstanding moment. No one is going to remember this set.
 

It happened to soon in their career unfortunately.

The payola for this flop Coachella performance

I'm glad they sang live-ish. Ningning and Winter sounded good. Overall forgettable though. Maybe they would've left more of an impression if they were allowed more time to gain experience with crowds but that's SMs fault , management seem keen on skipping steps as if they're chasing something. I'm gonna need to hear the official of the new song but it sounds cute even if it's filler. Overall SM got what they wanted for their mediaplay , aespa will benefit and their stans seem content so everyone who already supported them won. 

SM just sucks at putting on a show tbh.

 

Year end, aespa was the only artist consistently not getting any special dance breaks, back dancers, intricate stages, etc.

 

The fact that they couldn't even be bothered to have a live band or more "hype" versions of their songs for a huge festival like Coachella. Ugh.

 

SM really needs someone who cares about performances on their executive team because right now they just don't have it.

I thought earlier but aespa is the most hyped GG besides BP everytime they do something it’s always an event, I don’t know how SM did it but it’s working. We want a comeback.

you realize there's no rule you can only performance once or something right  They can and likely will perform again with Kpop performances becoming more common in western venues due to BTS/BP

It’s ridiculous how their hiatus ate getting longer and longer, like they topped mafia hiatus terrible!!!!

we aren’t getting new music until June/July. 
By debuting Itzy we would thought they will slow down with twice but yeah no 

[oceans]

the way they lip-synced when they weren't supposed to sing

Just now, getinthezone said:

I need a combination of aespa and IVE tbh.

 

I need interesting music that is more radio friendly than absurd + good adlibs and high notes as a climax but not ridiculous.

 

aespa is too experimental/out there sometimes. IVE is pretty generic so far.

aespa tries to fit too many high notes for no reason. IVE literally has none due to no outstanding vocalist.

 

STAYC has the most potential to give me what I want, but BEP keeps giving them lowkey tracks and its so irritating. Why can't he make anymore Cheer Up/LOA/Likey/Fancy anymore  

[oceans]

why is someone called @ethnic hiplurking?

you put it into words but yeah, very rarely do they give their artists the tools to put on a PRODUCTION, at least for televised stuff

 

 

this was an exception tho, it would easily be my favorite of theirs ever had SM let them turn the mics on

RIGHT NOW if you go back like 3 hours 20 mins or something you get to rewatch the performance on the official livestream. But it's only TODAY. If you need any help orienting on the livestream, they come after Steve Lacy and before Brockhampton and right before them there's a group of male dancers in red doing a dance routine.

 

You literally saved my life. Thank you so much sister!!!

i still don't get how blinks responding to SM's lies and MYs shading BP for performing at a "side stage" all week means we're insecure, threatened and gate keeping  nobody gatekept anything when 2ne1 performed last week, their stans are dragging bp every day but even they didn't come up with that main stage nonsense

and now nmixx are allegedly getting 3 more comebacks this year  

 

[DanyelP23]

Are there any news/tea regarding SM's 4th gen BG? I think them and Baemon are the only ones left.

I need Lee Soo Man to give us a 4 max 5 members BG with noise free music, vocal talent & high quality visuals. Something like a SHINee/Red Velvet hybrid, and with all members adults.

The nshytizens meltdowns ALONE would be worth it
