Sweetie this list isn't 100 % correct since it doesn't include EVERY SONG by 4th gen groups.

 

I literally just posted the actual top 100 earlier, but nobody cared :chick3:

 

Anyways NewJeans, IVE and LE SSERAFIM really shook the industry and are smashing on Spotify. "Love Dive" will soon surpass "God's Menu" and I can't even be mad mad cause "Love Dive" is one of my favorite Kpop songs of all time as well. Though it won't be able to reach #1 and surpass K/DA since "Hybe Boy" will surpass all of them and be #1 for a short time before it get's surpassed by "Ditto" and "OMG" and this way NewJeans will occupy the whole top 3 :redface: 

 

This is probably what the top 10 most streamed 4th gen songs will look like for now at the end of 2023: (Looking at their weekly streams)

1. Newjeans - Ditto

2. Newjeans - OMG

3. NewJeans - Hype Boy

4. LE SSERAFIM - Antifragile

5. NewJeans - Attention

6. IVE - LOVE DIVE

7. IVE - After LIKE

8. K/DA - POP/STARS

9. ITZY - WANNABE

10. Stray Kids - God's Menu

 

Uhm how was I supposed to know that :biblio: and the video I posted literally starts at #70 and except the k/da songs the list is the same though?

 

Anyway SLAY at NewJennies, LesserAngels and IVEsus :clap3:

speaking of XG, they debuted at #27 on Billboard Japan

seems good without Japanese promo, hopefully it will rise

they also debuted at #38 on Oricon chart with 11 828 points (no idea what that means)

They need to restock albums. Quickly. 
 

 

Poppy kr = breakthrough kr versions seat at the same table and not in a good way.

Poppy is fine for a taste and not a swallow. Like, Run2U is a SONG. REPEAT listens.

 

I can only stand the word poppy over and over again in small doses. :redface:

yeah i listened a few times and it's fun but gays will hype up anything with a house beat :redface:

 

to be fair, Stayc were never Red Velvet levels of bad at least!

Someone needs to fill me in because what happened to Lee Sooman :rip: has Chris Lee taken over?

LSM hasn't been the CEO for quite some time. But he still owns the controlling shares of SM and is their creative director in charge of the overall direction of all artists.

 

Chris Lee is LSM's nephew (and SNSD Sunny's cousin) and the current CEO.

 

There's been a power struggle within SM for a while and I think the board wants to get rid of LSM because of his dodgy contracts and tax evasion etc. They recently terminated some of his production contracts and his controlling shares are in the process of being sold since 2021. HYBE, CJ E&M, Naver and Kakao publicly revealed that they were bidding for his shares. But they all dropped out except for Kakao (and maybe Naver) who are still in the running.

 

Word on the street is, HYBE etc. walked away because LSM is insisting that he remains creative director of SM and this is also holding up the Kakao purchase. The board wants him out and gone for good it seems. This is probably part of why they are moving to a division structure too, so that his "creative director" role becomes unneeded.

you really saying all this **** about IU aka kpop’s one-woman-army?

i know you’re a troll but bfr for once :rip:

What ****? Did I lied? The numbers are there, facts are there, aespa preorder numbers for GIRLS alone are more than IU’s total album sales though? You can bring in her concert, drama, hits but the facts are right there in the number regarding ALBUM SALES.

2nd biggest week for a non-BTS BG after SuperM (iirc)

ezgif-3-39f8bdfd95.thumb.gif.7c5aaff1d23

Pretty impressive considering SuperM used bundles and other tactics

 

OT: Some of the new accounts are truly lowkey ruining this thread cause why would you attack IU to defend SM out of all companies :gaycat6:

Acting purposely dense I see. There is a reason most people here had a problem with your post and I don’t think you’ve realized what it is so bye lol. 

it’s everything ok over at high up? like what is BEP doing with STAYC rn. :redface:


I always thought she was pretty, it’s kinda lame she only gets attention after loosing weight :rip:

How many album versions does aespa have? And fans bulk buy to get the member photocard they want. Popular idols groups almost always sell more than anyone debut as soloist. IU did not have group fans backing her up. You're comparing a 2nd gen artist to a 4th gen idol group right now. The landscape of 2nd gen kpop and 4th gen are different. Look at SNSD album sales compared to many 4th gen girlies.

Gays on here are nasty but you especially can shut up and shove that picture of IU and that Suju pedo hag down your ass. That hag groomed her since 2009 when she was only 16.

She's my fave in NMESS. So underrated. :heart2:

Is that "new" member a dupe? Hope they can get the help they deserve

And IU still wins because she gets most of the royalties while aespa will get 5% only from those discounted albums and it will be divided by 4 people :deadbanana4:

 

But seriously, everytime I visits here, you either having a meltdown or dragging other groups/artists not named aespa like they sort of kill your cats but everytime someone talks negative about aespa you go insane. Get a life!

 

this boy should've joined bp99 :jonny5:his classic sm vocal tone>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
