Omg

not Brave Legends 

and here I was wondering where the comeback was

 

lemme celebrate the legends with these gems. The 2nd gen excellence they served was truly beautiful 

 

And of course, THE perfect smash that changed their lives

 

 

aaaah that’s POP HERSTORY I fear

Not birthday being an Itzy reject  no wonder it tanked 

But my question is how come SM was setting up their 2 biggest groups (aespa and rv) with bad songs?

teddy bear is starting to hit. the chorus and mv are a lil too good 

 

Was brave girls considered 3rd gen? What 3rd gen gg are left some what active?

 

Twice 

Blackpink 

Red Velvet 

Mamamoo

Oh my girl

Cosmic Girls 

 

The most replayed part is the iconic angle switch

You know, for me Birthday is not that bad of a song. It's not a top 10 title track of theirs for me, but it's not terrible. The performance video made me like it more.

 

But it was just not the song they needed to release at that time, plus the album and single release was botched AF, especially knowing it was supposed to come out months earlier.

 

A Velvet comeback is long long overdue now though.

 

Umm  so the TT is confirmed scrapped

nnn aren’t their contracts up like this week too? and I haven’t seen any renewal news yet 

Truly a titanium perfect pop song from start to finish, RIP 

 

This article says more and reveals that LSM was forcing aespa to sing a song about planting trees (I knew it after that hour long speech before SMTOWN online concert )

 

Apparently Chris Lee said the aespa girls were in tears and devastated at the lyrics, which mention phrases "let's plant trees" "lower the temp by 1 degree" and "sustainability" and then arguments broke out between Chris Lee, LSM and the A&R team about whether the lyrics could be removed from the song. But nothing got resolved, so eventually the decision was taken to cancel the comeback entirely.

 

Who knows what the truth is, it sounds like a lot of company conflict going on.

 

I feel SO bad for the girls getting caught up in all this, they don't deserve it and are suffering

Thank god it was scrapped, we can wait a bit longer i think, also this article made me doubt about what "side" aespa was on, I was under the impression that they sided with LSM in this conflict, but I guess the idols wanted LSM out and Chris lee in, a shame hybe had to jump in and make a mess

Yeah, after that hour long speech and the "save the environment!! plant a tree!!" songs in both the SMTOWN album and GOT the beat, I believe 100% this is real. I even commented back then that LSM would turn this environmental kumbaya into the new Kwangya.

I really feel bad for SM acts, especially aespa that seems to be the one act in the eye of the hurricane.

aespa's comeback getting delayed because of a song about ****ing planting trees is insane

This long rollout for Baemon is making me question whether the music is actually good....see how NMIXX spent like 2 months teasing their debut only for it to be hot garbage. Meanwhile NewJeans spent no time to debut with a fantastic mini

Now that I think about it, maybe they do not have faith with the material itself, so all the marketing went into making sure the group produces a bunch of Lisas and Jennies

 

 

i’m sorry but that’s hilarious 

Not LSM's "planting trees" potentially being coded language for "growing weed"

 

NOT aespa’s TT supposedly be about planting trees

LSM giving aespa a title track about saving the environment is truly insane

 

He can't be allowed back 

 

 

Chris Lee posted a 30 min exposé on YouTube about 1 hour ago, that's where all this info is coming from

 

This is just a mess

I understand why there was a coup now. He was gonna end aespa.

I would've been here for the iconic (slash messy) Aespa's version of "Let It Grow"

 

Definitely do better than Beautiful Monster. 

 

When it rise to Top 20, watch some atrler switching.
