Why Hype Boy refusing to age? I’ve listened like 100 times and it’s still as fresh and catchy as ever.

NMIXX is basically a ripoff of aespa and we got people saying they’re Itzy 2.0 when Itzy never released a song like Dice and OO at most Dice beat drop is similar to gas me up. :katie:

Time to dust off this modern fall classic. Where’s my fellow yerinators at :smiley:

whole ep is gorgeous, I have it on repeat since it dropped on yt, and it’s hitting hard

Hurt on rainy days is IT :jonny:

 

I ordered their Bluebook together with Born Pink, can’t wait to put my hands on both next week and be gagged at how lackluster BP’s inclusions are compared to NJ’s ep :jonny:

Y'all know whats going to be your top 5 on the kpop rate. SO much goodness this year, I can't decide :gaycat:

 

Strong feelings for Feel My Rhythm, Pop, TTT, and Run2U.

How could aespa possibly be out promoting? SM is clearly taking time out to reconsider how to brand and promote them after the Girls catastrophe. 

We all know Girls is a flop but you all thinking it has SM "considering" how to promote Aespa is so funny:bibliahh: like Girl Red Velvet had the most comebacks close to each other when they flopped HARD, RBB, ZZB, UU and Psycho comebacks are close to each other despite the total floppage. Same goes to NCT back when they used to sell like 150k per release. SM doesn't care about the 300$ they didn't earn because of Girls flopping.

 

The reality is they are busy kicking LSM out of SM or are starving MYs like a BP.

Did she lie tho? not one bit!

BP may not give us quantity with their albums, but it's always QUALITY 

the fact that they make albums consisting of all title track worthy material 

BLACKPINK don't make b-sides, every song on "BORN PINK" could be a title track :clap3:

 

 

 

sis talking as if they released a complete indie masterpiece and not a compilation of handouts 

Sugababes kinda invented girlgroups doing random genre switch ups on songs, kpop owes them a lot methinks

 

 

 

 

i dont think aespa not coming back has anything to do with girls "flopping" and the end of the day the mini sold like almos 2m copies, thats a lot of money they made

it probably have to do more with the whole thing of lee soo man figthing with other investors, after all he is the one who campe up with all this kwangya bulllshit

I take everything Mel says as ironic now that tweet dare to call that girl GP :bibliahh: so funny

That's not how she's talking at all, nor did she call it a masterpiece 

but if that's what you took from it, cool

 

she still didn't lie about it being a great album  :cm:

Is 2022 gonna end up being the biggest dud year for kpop bg debuts ever? 

 

Not one 2022 bg on the list :deadbanana2: OmegaX, Mirae & EPEX are all 2021. 

 

Where is the fresh blood? The new concepts? Where are the male newjeans, ives, aespas? 
 

There hasn’t been a big4 bg debut in 2 years.

To be fair, these new bg debuts all sound the same

yall didn't support groups like WINNER and IKON that although aren't gen 4

they released something different than what the majority are

 

so ya'll are stuck with the gen 4 boys that sound the same

So far I have 6 songs I really really like am obssessed with: Red Velvet - Bamboleo, WJSN - Last Sequence, OnlyOneOf - gaslighting, H1KEY - Athletic girl, STAYC - Young Luv, Kang Daniel - Ride 4 U

 

Get into these bops:jonnycat:

 

 

I think it would be fun to do multiple categories, like best album, best mini-album or better yet to have a separate ranking for boygroup released songs only. We're gonna have only songs that ranked high on MelOn + some outliers like Twice anyways.

Companies are hesitating to debut new boy groups these days, due to girl groups being more popular in general.
There are only six 4th gen boy groups that are successful right now which are SKZ, TXT, ENHYPEN, TREASURE, ATEEZ, The Boyz in that order, with SKZ and TXT leading. All 4th gen boy groups except for those 6 I listed are total flops. Other companies know that if they were to debut new boy groups, it will almost be impossible for them to compete with these 6 boy groups listed except for SMNBG. 
 

The situation with 4th gen boy groups is kinda like in the 3rd gen where there was only a few dominant groups and it was harder for other groups to outdo and surpass them. 
The success ranking among the 4th gen boy groups is very clear compared to 4th gen girl groups where the 4th gen girl group leader changes every month.

Feel like aespa headed to an EXO sort of career huge blow up song at the very start huge sales along with it, they’ll chart but it won’t be PAKS and RAKS and all of that but they’ll have the memorable hits the great sales and the sold out tours.

SMNBG is the only hope I fear

if they debut with a NCT-ish noise... it's over
