Gee was literally a phenomenon. I am the best was nowhere near as big:deadbanana2:

Gee single alone outsold 2NE1’s entire EP Physically and digitally 😆 Not you using Spotify and YouTube when they had the whole nation listening to it nonstop.

 

IATB was definitely a hit, but it wasn’t a cultural reset or as big🤷‍♀️

Nowhere near as big but has quite literally similar stats lol

 

 y’all are tripping thinking IATB can’t even be compared to Gee in success acting like someone set your own grandma on fire

the newjeans ep is very nice and fresh but only complain is why all the song is so short make it so unfinished

At least their previous hits have acceptable length and feel more like song.

 

Super Shy is the best song though.

Sorry this is like already half over.

 

 

But there's still an NDA IChillin' stage and Ily:1 prerelease desperation to go!

 

And you can back dat stream up to catch Kiss of Life recorded back when Natty didn't have covid19 in '23.

 

EDIT: And since this was recorded during one of the messiest livestreams ever, that girl from Belarus is still avoiding sanctions and is sitting next to Daehwi. :toofunny2:

its ok to have the (correct) opinion that IATB is the more widely known/heard song globally while Gee was bigger in Korea and has had more monumental impact on the Kpop genre and culture. :giraffe:

Someone tell the corny sones here this the superiority complex isn’t cute:clap3:

NewJeans being a mix of PinkPantheress and HER is such a slay :jonny5: this is what happens when you prioritize having pleasant vocal tones/colors over idols that can sing over 3 octaves but sound like wailing fishes :fan:

Only idols with bad technique will give you this result, which means not even that was a priority.

and I'm going to need each and every one of you SNSD antis hiding behind 2NE1 to go give Dara's new single a stream because I can guarantee she deserves it more than whatever crap you listen to. :gaycat:

When it comes to NewJeans, HYBE ate that one little thing.

The thing that's so interesting about NewJeans recent music is that their music is basically 80% English at this point!

 

New Jeans is like 85% English

Super Shy is like 80% English

ETA is 50% English

Cool with You is 65% English

Get Up is like their first fully English track (and its their best but its a interlude :toofunny3:)

ASAP is 95% English (no one told me this was just gonna be a glorified 3 minute outro its terrible lmfao)

 

Its becoming more and more clear their slowly pushing out into the global market while still sonically attempting to hold the fort in Korea (and keeping that nasty group IVE from dominating the charts!)

 

If they make more songs like Get Up and make them fully English its OVER for the girls I fear! Coffee shop midtempo Korea would eat it up :fan:

ETA, OMG and Cookie (lyrics re weird and ick but catchy tho) are their best sings

 

one from each era:giraffe:

NewJeans fully releasing an EP full of interludes :deadbanana2: This cannot be the direction this industry goes. ETA is great but even that is toeing the line of being a full song.

but honestly idc if danielle/hanni are nj's best singer yet mid at best, they  and the other 3 girls have such pleasant tones and their label knows to make them sing in range it makes for such a pleasant experience.

Technique has never mattered in pop, it’s vocal color that ppl actually care about anyways

Just stating facts. 🤷‍♀️ Gee sold 2x more, and was the biggest Kpop song in 2009.  IATB was outsold by T-ara. Very comparable 🤭

Not in k-pop they haven't. My last bastion of full-length songs slowly being corrupted by the encroaching Western menace...sick and twisted :sad:

ETA is coming :superman:

i cant get over the fact how much ETA sounds like an M.I.A song

ETA did not disappoint. But it's going to be the HB / OMG of the era. Blocked to #1 by their precursor singles.

Also, Snooze with You finally hitting. Why?
