    some of the new members not giving new at all 

Wait regarding Fifty fifty, who is the one CEO who’s working as a Warner music consultant too?

 

The producer SIAHN?

Or the one who sold his car, Jeon Hong Joon?  I can’t believe he publicly called WMK when fifty fifty soundtrack for Barbie is dropping soon. Hope WM is not going to punish and shelve them bc of their ceo public actions :dancehall:

The album is probably their most cohesive. Definitely has that 90’s New Jack Swing and R&B sonics. Like 10X & Satellite are serving 1992 black excellence. :katie2:
 

Identity was Made for Onew. He needs to sing on more dance songs like this:jonny4:The Feeling sounds better in the album! A perfect pre-release single, that gives you a nostalgia Summer vibe. 
 

Like it is definitely the most dance song on the album. It’s so infectious. I don’t know how anyone won’t start twerking on walls to this🤭

 

Sweet Misery sounds like a 2nd Gen song. And is probably why it’s one of my faves. Every section of the song flows perfectly in a familiarity. It’s just a great song that I can tell will have a lot of replay value.

 

Insomina 🤣 That Intro rap sounded like a Drake song. But once the verses and chorus start it sounds like 2010 SHINee b-sides💁‍♀️ The Kings of Contemporary R&B Justin Timberlake could never. 
 

Gravity ends the album and it’s a typical Mid tempo ballad closer. All the boys deliver vocally. It started out meh, but I started vibing during the chorus parts. 
 

overall my only problem with the album is Hard shouldn’t have been the title. But I understand why, Kpop fans need thier flashy upbeat title track MV’s. But I honestly think they should have made Juice thier High Budget dance MV. And made a Stylized video for Like it. Especially since Juice’s hook is literally “I Think You Like Me”. 🤦‍♀️ Damn SM use to be good at picking titles and making concepts. Still SHINee served best BG music as usual. As far as the visuals, it’s tragic. NCT really was the worse Creative creation of SM😭 

Apparently SHINee wanted Juice to be the title track but SM chose Hard instead nnnn I do agree Juice would be better

Why would SM NCTify SHINee like that? :biblio:

they hard their own swag and vibe that was unique to them, now they just sound like what every SM boy group is releasing

 

praying for EXO’s new title

but their teasers alone is giving me NCT…chile

It honestly makes sense that they are releasing another Japanese album/EP since they are about to tour there again. It’s also their biggest market

It's the first time they have so many activities in a year on Japan. Usually It was just a album release and bye. Now they are dropping one full album, one EP, 4 encores concerts for Maniac Tour on Saitama Super Arena/Kyocera Dome and now 8 Dome concerts for 5-Star Tour. 

 

:soda:

I don't like hard but they all look so good in the MV. I love when taemin brings the hair extensions out. :duca:

 

These songs feel more like classic shinee and I love it.

The teasers they released yesterday were for their pre-release track 'Hear Me Out' which was described by one of the producers as “It’s groovy, it’s fun, it’s fresh, it’s EXO!”, so I don't think It will sound like NCT. Let Me In also didn't.

Oh I forgot they were releasing a pre-release. Well, that gives me a bit of hope about their release

Edited by Mel.

SHINee albums is pretty great, TT is probably the weakest song, at least they keep serving vocals, they and EXO are so satisfying to listen solely for the vocals 

This tour is never gonna end. Lemme find out we need to throw an uno reverse and send trucks to YG this time telling them to STOP giving BP jobs:bibliahh:

 

 

 


and it still says “and more” dates to come on their tour website

you’re right, Juice is so much better and a better follow up to DCM and Atlantis

 

I’m on my first listen now and 10x is better than both Hard and Juice though :rip: it has so much more character to it

The best part is with ILY:1 also coming back the end of July, you'll still be able to hear the type of songs Oh My Girl used to do.

Looks like SKZ took their Kim Noona’s advice to their hearts

kim-kardashian-work.gif

 

It reminds me of the semi viral tweet a MOA made to discredit SKZ and uplift TXT, just for it totally backfiring and basically admitting that SKZ are hardworking while TXT are mostly payola and media play :toofunny2:

The self drag :redface: MOAs are truly the weirdest fandom :redface:

It honestly makes sense why YGLY keeps adding dates cause he knows that they have only 1 shot with this tour to make it the biggest Kpop tour of all time, and one of the biggest tours in general. We all know this will be BP’s last tour and they will never tour at this level ever again in the future, sadly.

I don't want any of u start saying Taeyeon has been treated like a princess or some BS because she has been treated not in the best way since many years ago.

SONES and Taeyeon knows that and thats the reason they are going all out this time because not even Taeyeon stopped them because she knows she deserves more. 

 

I were too lazy to reply to a user the reason but here's a summary and this is only a small part of all the bad treatment she recieved. Also remember her comeback got pushed back like 3 4 times already and it seems it will still be pushed back :rip:

 

Imagine having the TAEYEON and not giving her a Beyond Live when literally her concerts are a piece of art and also the concert is limited to only some asian countries so if it wasn't for the fancams (who are actually not allowed to in the concert) we wouldn't seen anything about the tour. 

 

Taeyeon is huge in Asia so the capacity for her tour is really a joke and add a couple of dates in Europe I'm pretty sure would been sold out too :deadbanana4:

 

SM has been stopping Taeyeon's growth since years ago and the reason she's even in Nolto is because the call was made directly to her so

Hard like a criminal is kinda catchy :jonny: and the bridge is so Red Velvet'd

Seohyun was smart to get out of SM. But she still always supports SNSD & SHINee 😭
