Not a fan of NewJennie but nice to see Kpop revisiting sounds other than girl crush. That’s how AESPA got popular too. 
 

Now we need adult sexy Kpop to make a comeback. We are ready for the new AOA / SISTAR.

NewJeans are the breath of fresh air we deserved after that girlcrush terror with bland onomatopoeia :coffee2:

 

Hope this push new groups to try other things, they don't need to copy New Jeans either, just try different things

anyone else getting early loona vibes from the new jeans mv/song? it kind of reminds me of something they would release back when they were good

it's giving loona 1/3 to me, reminds specially of the love & live mv and rain 51db

What is the point in bringing BP up? NewJeans are doing incredible both critically, commercially and quality-wise, there is no point in the comparisons. Just enjoy NewJeans' success and slayage. It is possible to celebrate one artist's success without having to tear down another

I fear that the younger generation of kpop fans is way too conservative/puritan to let a group like that succeed

Listening to Ditto and thinking "oh cool, but imagine RV singing this, the harmonies :heart2:"

idk I dont the same thoughts about IVE and LeSe because their songs are not asking for that.

But I'm afraid that NewJeans is not the same case. They are following a path that vocal matters a bit more (if makes sense)

 

still a good song:campfire:

Yeah I get that but at the same time their primary market and image is very teen schoolgirl specifically, and I know they all target these girls, but I think NJ are aiming to get girls sing this in school or something / film little tiktoks and stuff in school with their friends, stuff like that. So them kind of just casually signing fits that.

Newjeans :clap3:

 

They are 5/5 for me now! :jonny5:I love all their songs :clap3:

 

Their first full album will be probably a masterpiece :jonny5:

the nonsensical bp vs newjeans fights :rip: yall cant be that dense just say you hate bp and go :lmao: 

I just open the twitter and many of my Blinks mutual are fuming :deadbanana4:

 

I guess NJ is number one now :jonny6: Ditto is a bop. Multi gg stans like me are winning. 

Min Hee Jin wasted NJs hype for a boring song :rip: See what happened with Aespa Life's to short/Illusion pre-releases and Girls :rip: 

I think the music video is detracting from me enjoying the song ?  which is weird because it usually elevates the music for me. Honestly I think it's because I don't want serious concepts/videos from kpop. I just want to watch pretty people sing and dance and make bops and bangers I guess.

We should be comparing NewJeans and IVE. And not to tear either of the groups down, but to see just how far an artist can go in their debut year. IVE got some 1.7B+ digital points and almost 2.9M album sales.

 

NewJeans are almost at 1.1B digital points and over 600k album sales already and it’s barely been four months.

Ditto is smashing and receiving widespread acclaim so idk what wasted hype you're talking about

get ha :fan:

The d!ck riding on all these rookie ggs is crazy in here :priceless:

The way y’all will switch on these rookies as soon as their rookie era is over, and a new set of rookies debut as y’all usually do :dies:


I can’t believe some of y’all are trying to paint this narrative that any other gg is bigger than BP right now :deadbanana2: Like the delusion. 

It’s like a repeating cycle, where whenever a new gg debuts, y’all will compare them to BP and claim that they will overtake BP which never ends up happening btw, and then another gg debuts and its the same all over again.
BP will always stay on top.

I predicted a RAK in 4 hours, sadly I lost. Maybe before midnight 

 

 

How is NCT dream 4th gen if google tells me they debuted in 2016 

:rip: 
Age wise they’re on par with 4th gen but    they’re a whole 2 years older than skz

I'm just saying BP peaked singles/ chart wise, yes they are still super successful but nowhere near DDD level like they used to. BP is the standard so ig I was a bit shocked when they not did hit #1 even after the 2-year break hype, while these new girlies are easily smashing and getting #1s. I feel bad for them cuz it's not even their fault, since it's YG that keeps withholding the music during the time when fans are ready and the most hyped. 

 

Pink Venom would've been easily a #1 if it didn't have to compete during Gidle, IVE, NJ smash cbs/ debut. But still even if it did, it wouldn't have the longevity like the latter cbs had. 

 

Also, didn't say anywhere in my post that they are not the highest earning/ paid GG out here? That's another topic. 

Blackpink only has 3 number ones in their career. They didn’t have a number one until dddd. even LSG didn’t top the charts and still had a great longevity.  Why would you feel bad for a group with sell well, sell out their concert and the girls are millionaires without lifting a finger. Some of y’all are doing the most when it comes for BP. You would think their songs are out of the top 100. 

Aespa being Top 10 on Gallup artists of the year despite only have one mid performing comeback this years shows they’re not going anywhere as long as SM fixed their mistakes.

SNSD's Party smashed then main single Lion Heart underperformed
Taeyeon's Starlight smashed then Why flopped :rip:
Attention and Hype Boy stole spotlights then Cookie did not as good 


Their main single needs to be excellent or they wasted their hype
