Stray Kids releasing GP friendly songs is risk, cause they've been building their whole brand on being different, 'funnily annoying' as they say and not following trends. And most of the fans are proud of it and became loyal to their music exactly because of it. 

 

Changing the road to something opposite that what they have been selling can go wrong, cause there's no guarantee new people will eat it up and there's chance they would lose their fanbase that likes them exactly because they are not-like-the-others. 

 

I mean, look at the 'rejection' to MAXIDENT. And It isn't THAT friendly. On contrary, 5 STAR is their noisest and by far the most successful. 

 

Just my opinion.

I was talking abour streaming 

I genuinely just think that people wanna hear good bops. S-Class is a downgrade not because it’s noisy, but because it’s simply not that great compared to their previous tts. 
 

Btw, idk if you have noticed but their most popular b-sides from their last 4 albums have all been completely different from their title tracks:


- Red Lights

- Charmer 

- Taste 

- DLMU 


This shows that people are also interested in them doing other sounds. 
 

But I must say that 5 Star is definitely their most cohesive album ever, where every tracks fits together so well. Usually Kpop albums can be very disjointed, but this album stayed to its “noisy” sound throughout.

if sneakers was a pre release and the royalty concept was the real title track sneakers wouldn’t be that hated, it’s a bop

I really do not get the hate for sneakers, I actually love it. it's a cute & fun song. plus the ending is so good

That's why I was saying to CandyCoatedClouds the ONLY way I see them being able to please both the fandom and casual listeners are releasing "Red Lights", "Charmer" and "Taste" type of title tracks. 

 

Charmer itself almost was a title track, according to Chan, they changed It last minute, cause they started producing Maniac and fell in love with the song. 

 

 But I think that It might be something that would work just to some extent. I see them being well received releasing a comeback on this vibe, but If It started to become frequent, their fandom would start questioning were is the noise. 

 

Anyway, about S-Class being a downgrade I personally disagree. Can think of a few title tracks I like more than it. 

 

- Miroh 

- Back Door

- Maniac 

- Side Effects

- Thunderous

Seungmin is not ugly or anything, he's just more on the average side compared to the other members. Hyunjin is a hot botched king who has the same botched look as the ENHYPEN members and the other bgs from HYBE as well, so it surprises me how you don't find him attractive? :fan2:

Enhypen doesn't even look botched though.

Seungmin is HOT, a vocalist, and is into kinky stuff. Let him live!

Renjun :jonny6: He is so cute, I can't believe he is older than all the TxT guys and half of Stray Kids, he looks super young.

Are these recent photos? He looks really good. Also he's older than most of TXT,  still younger than Yeonjun though.

It appears that Hanteo had a glitch, specifically on the realtime sales for [Unlock My World] Regular and Compact versions. The total 1st day sales at the moment is now 83,741 instead of 195,002.

It’s best to wait for tomorrow’s daily update at 10AM KST for the final figure.”

I love my ITZY girls, but why isn’t the hook on key? Between that and the screeching at the start of the chorus for Cheshire, these comebacks made them look vocally incompetent whereas they used to be one of the few girl groups that at least weren’t scared to sing live.

YG confirms that they terminate GD Contract. #BigBangOverParty

GD has his own label and businesses so he will be fine. But netizens are saying Big Bang won’t comeback and he is officially done with YG.

Gdragon extended his contract with YG while Yang bros were indisposed.  Maybe he was offered the head job.  Maybe he was just there to bring some appearance of stability in the chaos.  Now that the Yang bros are back, he's no longer needed.  And vice versa.

Heard netizens are already dragging her for just bumpin and grindin during the choreo scene. :rip:

 

 Dumb move on YG's part. She could have made her debut in practically anything and they went with an HBO original. :rip:

Speaking of Boy groups that actually make good Music, Kings invited it:WAP:

In theory its not a bad idea bc they want her to be a "serious" western star, but in reality this show is basically a wattpad with a $10 million per episode budget :devil:
