That’s why I thought February would be a good time, because if not, it ain’t happening to later this year. They’re booked until around August. June is their last dates, but with encores and then the summer festivals in July, realistically we won’t get anything until after August so it will be a long gap

Yeah honestly the planning is a mess.

yeah but knowing YG it’s better not to have high expectations 

i’m expecting a bare minimum like it was during the Pink Venom era so as not to get disappointed 

Well solo stan are going to be mad if she’s not doing even fan signs.

Devil by the Window - 78,436

Tinnitus - 71,968

Farewell Neverland - 70,304

Happy Fools - 67,240

 

not bad, but they're high on Melon Top 100 because they have around 23k UL hourly (they're so much lower on the Daily Chart). So... as you said multiple times, fanbase driven. I don't know how some users are so dense, it's not even a bad thing, they're the only 4th generation boy group to chart like this, it shows that they gained A LOT of new fans in Korea.

Thank! We will see if the Gp is checking their songs with the Monday update anyways. If then, SRR might have a chance to reach top 10 on the daily since you just need 181k uls now.

Live tour performances and video call event are the only thing Jisoo will get :rip:

 

I guess that's an upgrade nn

How do BP have songs with hundreds of millions streams on Spotify yet their most streamed song in the US has only 26M streams?

 

Manobots and their streaming farms in Thailand are doing their thing I see

 

KYtBoeg.gif

those are only charted streams? it’s obvious they have more streams, especially considerning their big b-sides numbers too

and they are global, you know? currently on a sold out worldwide tour - people from various countries are listening to them lol

Why are they N/A everywhere else tho? Why are they only getting streams on Spotify? That doesn’t seem fishy to you?

 

at least with BP they chart on every available steaming platform, that’s what you call organic, but to only be getting streams on ONE? sorry that’s weird and y’all can’t be mad because it’s being clocked

 

something shady is going on and y’all don’t wanna admit it, but it’s funny cause y’all had no problem when it was BTS. Y’all are quick to call out shady tactics, but the energy when it’s a girl group or a group y’all like, it’s silent.

 

Please.

they are actually pulling amazing numbers on all platforms in Japan and have good performance in the SEA countries too, completely dominating Korea for half a year now

their mvs are not really streaming friendly, since they have a lot of breaks, plot and so on

but then they have good audio streams on yt and put out tons of performance videos and things like that, so the streams are split between those 

on top of that almost all of their songs go viral on tik tok too and it gives them huge boost :rip:

 

stop being jealous about a group of teenagers

BP are well known and established act, no need to be bitter because a new generation is gaining traction too

It seems like OMG is going to take over Ditto at this rate. Which is unfortunate since Ditto is the better song 

 


 

 

 

tbh I think that OMG will pull Hype Boy on Ditto :rip: actually it’s really interesting to me, since both pair of singles are really in the same vein sonically - Attention and Ditto being nostalgic and very different, Hype Boy and OMG being r&b influenced bangers

How she is going to promote :deadbanana4: ? 

same way Rose and Lisa did? especially the latter, they gave her poor week worth of promotions 

I don’t think Jisoo is into solo music career anyway, so I guess it would be a good deal for her too

one US performance, one week on music shows in Korea an call it a day lol

then she would be able to perform it on tour and at Coachella - I really don’t want to see her perform Camila Cabello song there :rip:

NewJeans got two biggest fandoms fuming over PAK record and Spotify numbers :clap3:

 

OMG pulling the same numbers as Ditto without TTH and Hype Boy is above 1.4M also without TTH and huge playlists. Do I have to mention that Ditto had 500k and OMG had 400k+ streams in the US on 2nd day of releases without playlist push? 

 

Grasping straws to discredit their success by using iTunes and Amazon while knowing well they do not have a big fanbase in the US to mass download songs. Their downloads peaked in the first few days of release. As for Apple Music US, I am not even gonna comment on that when even your faves have a hard time staying in Top200 after two days. Both Ditto and OMG are charting in Top 60 of AM US Pop chart though and OMG is at #59 on YouTube US Chart. 

 

Thank you ADOR for payola tho. We need OMG on TTH as well.  :bird:

 

 

 

 

 

 

the public is here for them, that’s it and that’s what they deserve for bringing quality and new things! :clap3:

I can’t at stans of well established groups being pressed over a group of freshly debuted kids :rip: I bet NewJennies themselves can’t believe it’s all really happening, I hope they have some decent support team

Yeah as I said before there's no 4th gen bg songs able to debut or reach inside the Melon Daily top 100 since the Melon chart reform in 2020 so TXT being the first 4th gen bg to have all 5 tracks on their latest mini debut inside the Melon Daily top 100 was the big achievement.

According to Last FM:

1. Attention - 275172 listeners

2. Hype Boy - 262716 listeners

3. Ditto - 251230 listeners

4. Cookie - 194998 listeners

5. OMG - 191935 listeners

6. Hurt - 154780 listeners

 

Crazy numbers for the scrobbling website do you

agree with the order? When/will Ditto become #1?

Will OMG get to Hype Boy/Attention status?

Maybe people need to accept that a new girl group is rising and becoming more successful than the other one.. it's the cycle of music, when an artist gets older, they lose some steam while the newer ones starts to dominate.. there's nothing wrong with that :rip: So get off your high horses and instead of shading a group with 14 - 18 years olds.. just focus on your favs?

this!

After like is so stable. I didn’t expect to do so well. A mega hit indeed. Now we need Starshit to come hard by promoting their b-sides and a A-quality album but I expect nothing from this shitty company. :katie:
This is their longest hiatus. No more sloppy dancing and tragic choreography. We need also German Liz back.

they literally have their own group of like 13-17 year olds to worry about but of course new jeans is on their lips. :penguin:

Idk what was NJ’s peak ? I’m sure they pulled at least +8.5M streams.

Gaga is #39 and she gained 12.3M streams yesterday.

I expect around 2,5-3M streams for Sugar Rush Ride.

If Jisoo solo is going to be next month, they would probably let her debut her solo performance on the tour

 

So no domestic promotion for her solo sadly 

What even happened to her solo :rip: Typical YG, announce something just to deflect from the scandals and then don't follow up with the actual plan...it's probably not coming until the summer or even fall at this point.

I cannot find an official confirmation about aespas comeback? How do we really know that they are returning in February?

Yeah since Yujin is currently filming, Starshit needs to give Wy and Leeseo more vocals lessons, and put the group in a dance boot camp.

Agree with the b sides promotions, they need to invest in good materials and not the same WJSN rejects! Also they need to invest in good album design and good outfits. Bc everything during the AL era was cheap! 
 

I think Liz need to go back to blonde but not platinum. Something more darker.

Acting like BP doesn't have even more payola, they even had a deal with Spotify, leave the toddlers alone :redface:

 

The way BP free fell after that 1-week-long deal with Spotify ended. Blinks trying to come after rookies... the lack of self awareness 

 

Now, people are going to pretend such deal didn't exist when Spotify account itself announced that every single stream was going to count as a "premium" account stream and avoid filtering.

Ofc BP benefited from it thanks to their streaming farms :rip:

they have two concerts planned in February so... it would be logical to release new music before that
