How are we feeling about fourth Gen GG’s? Just some general musing below. 

 

I’ve been jamming to Adspa’s bsides a lot lately.. maybe they made several points. And ningning really does have an amazing voice. 
 

I like IVE’s songs tbh but I find something quite uninteresting about them? I guess their concept is fashion teen or something which doesn’t really excite me. And I don’t really like any of the members. 
 

idk why NMIXX gives me klassic kpop the most out of a lot of girl groups these days even if it’s a hot mess. And it’s somewhat entertaining to follow what is going on with them lol. I also like some of the members. I honestly think their summer release was pretty good they just need some better visual and art direction. Jyp is stinging out of them. 

 

STAYC had such a strong run of title tracks but teddy bear and soon to be bubble have made me loose a lottttt of interest in them. They did a reverse twice I fear (in terms of concept).

 

New jeans releases really are amazing and the members are gorgeous. I do wonder if them falling into the kpop Stan world will lessen their appeal a bit? I feel before they were kinda left of kpop in branding and appeal but the kpop label and Stan’s might dim their shine a bit in the west idk.. (if you get what I mean like how most of the Twitter world thinks kpop Stan’s are bananas lol).

Aespa’s savage mini remains the superior 4th girl group album to this day. And if you don’t mind aenergy as an intro it’s a no skip album. Spicy I haven’t really gone back to since it came out and only really listen to Spicy, thirsty and ms salty sweet. I’m still mad that they didn’t get full mv’s.

 

I’ve pretty much loved all of Ive’s titles so far with I Am being my least favorite. After like is that girl and kitsch was too ahead of it’s time.

 

Nmixx needs better music, they’re talented but unnoteworthy. I actually liked o.o and tank deserved the single treatment.
 

I have no idea what stayc has going on but they have some good songs with run2u being a clear standout.

 

Nj have some good music but they’re just there for me. I feel no want or need to keep up with them and solely jam if their songs come on or something.

4th Gen music b-sides are lowkey way better then 3rd Gen. Music is subjective but I wasn’t really a fan of the tropical house & Trap music in a lot of girl groups music from 2015-2018. As far as title tracks they are kinda equal. But I think 4th Gen kinda stepped it up with the album production.  
 

granted I honestly grew up listening to way more 3rd Gen groups then 4th. but I honestly don’t go back to those albums as much as say 2nd Gen. Like comparing momoland, I.O.I, Gfriend, Twice Earlier albums, AOA, and Exid mini albums to what’s being produced now is just way different. I Stan harder back then but I don’t think the actual music has aged as well.

honestly the aespa looks weren't that bad. they shoulda used less flowers tho ur right @ANTIclimatic. i think i woulda enjoyed the outfits more w/o them or with only one or two on each. at least it seems like they killed the performance and drew a massive crowd. 

Yeah sometimes less is more and you don’t want to have so much going on especially if they’re gonna use these simple silhouettes

Aespa looking like a normal girl group for once is actually great. The current styling highlights their individuality and IT Girl potentials.

 

 

I also need for SM to book them more outdoor festivals such as this, they just have a different vibes everytime they're in front of an outdoor crowds :giraffe:

Aespa: Im a stan, Savage and My World are amazing albums, Girls was a bit underwhelming but Ilusion is incredible. 4 of them are stars and keeps growing as performers.

 

IVE: Love their singles but their b sides are kinda mid. I haven't listened to their album since It came out. I like the girls except Leseo, she is out of place in the group. They always serve greats bops.

 

NewJennies: I like almost all their songs, Hype Boy and Ditto are my favorites. Their concept is cool ans original but I'm not really interested in the members at all I dont even know their names. I think they are a bit overrated because of their success.

 

LesSerafim: Their first 2 minis are great but their last album was mid af, the TT was bad. They are Itzy with way better music. Not my favs at all but I enjoy watching them perform.

 

StayC: They had great music until Teddy Bear, I lose all my interest in them after that. I hope they come back to their initial concept, the kidz bops are NOT It.

 

Itzy: Forgotten, horrible music, horrible concepts, no identity. Wanna be was their peak in all terms. Feels like they are lost now but they are great performers tho.

 

G Idle: Catchy music, talented members (except Shushua) but they are not interesting enough for me to stan.

 

NMIXX: No identity, bad to boring music. Very talented and amazing performers but the group doesn't feel like one, they are just there to me, O.O was their only exciting moment.

Love how Renjun is feeling himself in this performance.

Aespa : Their title tracks are most of the time great. My world is their best album and has no skips. I don’t get the hype over savage mini but I love savage and aenergy. NN and Karina are among my favs idols nothing negative to say about these queens :clap3:

Itzy : one of the first groups I stanned while they lost their touch by appealing to whatever their audience is. The quality of their albums have increased. The music keep getting better. One of the best lineup with stars (even with Lialegend) 

 

IVE : All their title tracks are 10/10. Their first album was great even if I just masstream blue blood. My fav 4th gen group right (sorry HITZY :emofish:) However their brand is getting cheap, Ss needs to invest asap. 
 

Stayc : I hope one day they will go back to R2U era but it’s been a year and the music isn’t giving. Poppy still one of the best songs of the year at least. A group with visuals and no talent hole. Young luv is the best 4th gen album. No skips just great music :WAP:
 

LSR : Dropped the best debut album, came with another great album but unforgiven was ass. Itzy 2.0 with better music though however their fearless concept are getting old and boring.
Yunjin, Chaewon and Kazuha are the main girls.

 

NJ : The music is cute I guess.

Oh Lisa is really dating that guy.

 

One french journalist revealed to a blogger that he was received with a threat of lawsuit if he publish the dating scoop. 

 

Lisa better use those connection and she'll get money from all the things that akgae and haters have been saying for years

aespa smashed it at outside lands

obviously they don't give as much dance energy as other 4th gen groups but they more than make up for it with the insane visuals and excellent live vocals. 

 

when the three of them were standing waiting for the band to start Next Level.... LAWD. They look otherworldly

also the live band version of Black Mamba HIT :jonny5:
