Why are K-pop’s English lyrics getting even worse as they’re working with American writers?

GOT is all hype. Their two songs are terrible. Disband already.

 

 

so itzy bigger than Aespa and IVE worldwide?

Boa was desperate to be the main focus this time after being overshadowed in Step Back. 

 

There was no need for her to have the bridge highlight and be centre in the dance break.

She was so bored and lifeless the performance was hard to watch  SM is only pushing her cause she's old and a "legend". 

Omg that's so soon

Just watched that stamp on it perf and putting the horrible choreo aside, boa really does look lifeless through it especially during the dancebreak, 0 doubts she doesn't wanna be there. Free her! 

She’s benefiting the most from it. Feel like she’s not the one who needs to be freed. The whole thing seems like it was made to promote her

Itzy has more songs. And they have the evergreen hits like Dalla2 & Wannabe. I’m still bopping to those 2 songs every morning

Now I can stream this guilt free and repeatedly since its been uploaded on their official channel.  

Why not release it on Spotify right away.  Anyway, on first listen, this song seems better than Step Back.

Stamp On It slaps 

 

Karina, Seulgi and Taeyeon, my fave sm girls

I feel to the floor watching it. It was so unexpected 

Teasing the return of a group that could not even pull 90k streams on Spotify with their last song, over the group that has not had a comeback as a full group since 2018…

I mean she's not on her prime physically or in terms of popularity but just look at her in the dancebreak, there's no way she suddenly became that bad  

imo it's obvious sm just did it to have a counterpart to superm and that's it, if they wanted to promote her to newer gen fans they could've just given the group Better-Woman-Camo-etc kind of songs where she shines, basically a solo from her but with other people that could bring attention to her, and I feel that's closer to the style people actually wanted from them as well

Not that American pop songs are lyrical masterpieces either

Stamp On It is so NCT'd just like the snippet  It's not bad though. Wendy carried. But I think I prefer Step Back on first listen problematic topic aside.

 

In theory, GOT is like the best group ever?? I should be liking them more but SM keeps giving them meh songs and terrible choreography. How do you **** up an incredible lineup so bad? Also SingSing not being in it is such a missed opportunity. Maybe if she was Korean.

Wait, why did they publish a performance video of Stamp On It 15 days before the actual release? It doesn’t make sense and totally kills the hype

Yeah but there’s nothing wrong with the grammar in American pop unless it’s Max Martin writing. KPop has legit declined since 2nd Gen

because that’s what ADOR did with Attention/Hype Boy 

K/DA paved the way. We need comeback!

this is too good  Stamp On It about to be my most played song this year like Step Back was last years

I kinda can't HATE ador for never realeasing any teasers but at the same time I know it will be worth it in the end 

 

Truly the Korean Beyoncés
