5th gen won’t start until YG debuts a 4th gen gg and SM debuting a 4th gen bg. The puzzle needs to be finished until we can move to an another generation. And even then we don’t know how many more years this generation will be.
 

They already plagiarized SKZ’s debut with their own debut from the same beat to the MV  :giraffe:

 

And they did a great job with the plagiriazing. 
An Everglow/early ITZY to Blackpink tea!

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

It’s going to be a bunch of 12 years olds singing about weirdly adult themes so yes, it’ll be hot garbage.

 

idk if anyone is topping NMIXX in the garbage department tho

Leave twinky Changbin alone!!! 
Though the best decision he ever made was becoming thick and going the Wonho route :clap3:

 

Glad to see SKZ already having sons in their own generation :clap3:

Their streaming stats are disastrous though like 10x worse than NCT's :rip: They are very local compared to the other 5 groups, but you are probably still right.

 

Actually I just checked and The Gayz are actually performing the best digitally in Korea (Circle Chart) :penguin: "Maverick" peaked at #6, "Thrill Ride" peaked at #11 and "Whisper" peaked at #18 out-peaking every 4th gen bg :rip: Like they are the only 4th gen bg to have a top 10 hit and multiple top 20 hits :dies:

Kingdom truly helped them wow :clap3:

Kingdom did somehow benefit some of the groups such as SKZ, ATEEZ and The Gayz who went from not charting at all, to scoring top 30 hits :giraffe:  It definitely benefitted The Gayz the most though :celestial5:

 

I would also say that ATEEZ are bigger than ENHYPEN in Korea as well when comparing both digital charts. 

 

Actually, Sugar Rush Ride has peaked at #11 so far. Could've went top 10 if it wasn't for the Friday release

ive-jang-wonyoung-criticized-for-eating-

 

Higher peak than Whisper, so I think they're the biggest BG in Korea by a significant margin, now that the Kingdom hype is clearly starting to wear off for The Boyz (Whisper did worse than both Maverick & Thrill Ride like everywhere)

Is having a worse debut song than NMIXX even possible? :skull:

it’s interesting how quickly people switch up on groups full of minors depending on the company they belong to. :giraffe:

I was excited for Baemon when it was a myth about 10 Jennies... but now I'm just curious about how their debut will affect BP staying with YG. They practice to a lot of suggestive songs and sing about mature themes they can't comprehend so far... like why are these kiddies dancing to My Type by Saweetie?! :deadbanana2:

 

The talent is there but he really should have waited another 2 years and let them start the 5th gen. This being the main focus for the company rn while the Jisoo solo is still N/A and BP's contracts are up in August... priorities just all messed up over there and I kinda want them to leave YG now just for the kiis :fan:

how can people not see that baemon atm is clearly just a tool for yg to leverage themselves in renewal negotiations with blackpink. the fact that they were rush announced in response to the scandal of them moving to the black label was a fear tactic. yg is trying to show blackpink that they're replaceable with literal children who will last longer 2x in the industry and that they need yg :michael:

Omg

hopefully they dont take the bait and move onto greener pastures but yg is trying to say 'we can replicate your success with baemon, we dont need you, you need us, etc.' to accept their lowball offer. if the 15mil/member rumors are true thats just way too little for blackpink. yg might not even let them use the blackpink name outside the company.

I knew that! He's so fine, him and Daniel were my faves  :gaycat2:

I used to be such a DMTN fanboy back in the day :jonny2:

I have all their albums, even got one signed by all the members :smitten:

He's how I even found out about XG, I'm glad he's still in the business because now we have XG and they slay :jonny4:

I had I feeling this was likely the case, because I'm sure if they don't renew YG will make sure they can never use the BP name outside of that company :deadbanana4: unless the girls have the coin to buy the rights which they might :eli: The next few months for them will be interesting between the tour and Coachella; shame despite being dungeon'd half of their career they're working the most they ever have been up until the negotiations :rip:

Not birthday being an Itzy reject :rip: no wonder it tanked 

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