    some of the new members not giving new at all 

XG is the Japanese version of NMIXX but with charismatic members and actual good music.  I hope they will become a big group. :gaygacat5:
 

isn’t girls a NCT’s reject ? 

Glad that track she teased is a bside. I mean it's cute but I was scared that due to YYJ being gone & their recent comeback flopping, they would never release singles as ambitious as Girls, Savage and Next Level again :jonny5:

YYJ hasn't left yet lmao. He's been threatening the new CEO's and management with leaving given the proposal for their new organization, pre-Hybe buyout. 

oh my god GIRLS is an atrocious song and we said so the minute it dropped

not yall trying to be edgy now

 

it's unlistenable noise trash and uncomparable to actual great pop songs like Savage and Next Level

 

 

cleanse your ears :gaygacat3:

The fact that Lily have a voice that PERFECTLY works for rnb yet she stuck with O.O or Dice :toofunny3:.
 

Jinni (:rip:), Lily, Haewon, Kyunjin and Jiwoo have good stage presence.

I think at this point, they could go with something more subtle and understated that can still double as a big statement. We already know aespa is one of the more ambitious ggs in the industry as a whole, but it’ll probably less of a disservice to them at this moment to go a route people wouldn’t typically expect. Girls’ stench is still relatively fresh on them.

 

And YYJ is fine, but it’s Ryan Jhun that needs his ass curb-stomped expeditiously. YYJ almost always misses when those two collaborate. If they’re working together as some kind of package deal, chuck both of their asses in the trash heap, chile.

The visual is over the top My girls paid homage to AHag and ate the original The slender skinny gg better be back before their disbandment Give us two more coffee shop minis before the disbandment please (Jaehee lowkey ended our pillow face queen Namjoo in terms of vocal and visual)

I’m back to send my girls to their retirement home

they suit the cute concept so much! Their covers are always good :heart:

like someone in the thread mentioned before, I think they're more like the Japanese EVERGLOW

hated by Korea, adored by international audience, serving peak girl crush 

though XG has a small edge - unlike EVERGLOW, they can actually chart in their domestic country

They are a great example of what girl crush really is about tbh. And they have an edge in a way that their melodies always HIT

The rollout for this era has been so messy and confusing, like I’m already over it and just want them to release the damn album, so we can we move on to the actual Korean comeback :redface:

Mte like what the hell Sony Japan release the title track The Sound so early around 1 month before the actual album release it's confusing :redface:

 

Anyway The Sound and There are too good to be original Japanese songs and we need the Korean version on their future Korean cb b-sides (The Circus) or the year end compilation album. (FAM)

i just saw the misamo trailers and DAMN. those girls are dangerous. :redface:

Why are people surprised about STAYC? Producers have shown endlessly that they struggle to create their own smashes.

 

Teddy has struggled to get SOMI nearly as big of hits as 2NE1, BP, Jennie, etc.

Brave Brothers FAILED miserably with their boy group and Brave Girls (outside of their fluke 2021)

DoubleKick failed with Momoland

BEP now struggling to get STAYC up and running

Shinsadong Tiger struggled with EXID

 

They excel when given guidance and direction by a bigger label (song vibe, concept, lyrics, etc.) but when they're given their own creative control to do whatever they want they struggle to replicate it.

And then you have Ryan S. Jhun with BugAboo which been disbanded.

I'm kinda surprised how ATEEZ aren't as popular as other 4th gen bgs especially when they have so many stand out members such as San, Wooyoung, Mingi, Hoongjoog etc. + they are also the best performers out of 4th gen bgs, like their live stages are INSANE! 

 

They are such a visual group as well :jonny6:

 

San:

Seungwha:

They are probably the most muscular bg in 4th gen :gaycat7:

You not mentioning their songs  :mandown: They had good music at first but everything after Inception/THANXX has been trash. At least they have good sales and fanbase for a group from a smaller company I guess
