Just remembered this and if Momo debuted the right song, her solo could be a collapse :jonny5: (nobody ask who's singing)

 

 

no need to ask when we already know :clap3:

Why would you disrespect Heesus like that

 

countess.thumb.jpeg.2fc33804156e0f1489c7

I mean...

 

He's the best vocalist in the group but in the grand scheme he's not that exceptional. Compared to their peer groups, if he was in SKZ or RIIZE he'd be like #3 best vocalist and in ZB1 he'd be #4.

 

just being real

I still don't understand why JYP is pushing MOMO to sing, when she originally wanted to be a dnacer/rapper. MISAMO unit with her rapping and being highkey the best parts of the whole project shows, she should stop singing.

I was reading the comments and a lot of KNetz are saying sales are going down for many kpop groups? Has the bubble of physical sales starting to burst? I don’t keep up with sales anymore but I wonder if people just can’t afford to buy 5 million albums now

 

Weekends have most shops closed so Friday releases typically do poorly on Hanteo and then the Monday and Thursday dates do huge numbers. NCT just had a moment like this and their first day bombed only for them to score their biggest first week and highest seller.

 

It is concerning to think about when the sales will start to crumble. Granted K-Pop used to surpass on 10k album sales and two cent singles, so I’m sure they’ll still survive.

It's just about when the company ships those copies since all purchases were made BEFORE the album hits the stores.

 

IVE moved 600k first day and 1.6M first week recently as a prime example

seeing these old fancams reminds me that Ni-kolas was such a baby when they put this out

 

imagine how much better this whole concept wouldve been if they saved this song til later, maybe 2024... the collapse

Isn't it a shipment problem or something? Like I wouldn't be surprised if it will gain 1M sales on a random day this week.

 

By the way, did aespa/stray kids post their pre-orders numbers?

Still not over how great aespa’s title track is. Girl group fans consistently win. I love that for us.

I don't know what change with aespa, but this is a good step in the right direction. For once their choreo doesn't look good only for TV set (preprogramed angles).

Too bad the chorus of Drama is a literal turd 

The verses are a slay. It needed a bit more of lighthearted camp chorus like Savage.

Don't Blink is kind of excellent even if I hate that it's almost a year since we've heard it :rip: 

 

Its the only song I enjoy from the mini album :rip:

I remember reading somewhere that companies sometimes doesn't ship all the album sales at once on purpose, so that the albums can have more longevity

The way drama went from 9 to 10,  it's an instant grower.  Dunno about the others but the chorus is actually the best highlight of the song :falcon:

 

 

The vocal layering truly what made Aespa's above from their peers :clap3:
