What's crazier is fans being happy about that. I mean they could use that for literal promotions. Like who would walk and say oh it's twice colours?

Right?? I guess they're so used to RR doing nothing besides dropping LQ remixes it caught them by surprise :rip:

Hopefully its a sign they'll do some other more useful stuff later

red velvet are great vocalists and all but i can't see them pulling off hype boy nor attention

 

they make quirky and noisy music for their red and darkpop for their velvet

 

newjeans give off cool, youthful and fresh vibes, which is exactly what attention and hype boy are.

they smashed because they instantly clicked with the GP (also hybe stans support)

Now that SM has access to Hybe's vocal processing, Red Velvet can do anything!

Hyunjin is actually the member after 3Racha to have the most credits in their songs :clap3:

We love Hyunjin for helping creating these sexy and sensual bops :clap3:

 

Red Lights their second best song and horniest MV. King did that.

As a former Redelulus I really don't see RV pulling off hype boy.... like just give up the narrative already:rip:

When I tell you nugu are better than the big 4 groups. They just have no budget.

Like homeboy is supposed to be the main dancer that had a limited amount of lines in his group

You spent years to say RV was a f(x) just for now say NJ has nothing to do with RV but some to f(x).
The math is not mathing.

that's exactly what I said? :rip:  if you're gonna compare newjeans to any mhj group its f(x) not rv - since rv is just a cheap copycat of f(x) esp their first few eras

 

and since they never succeeded on copying f(x)'s concepts/image they made this circus amusement park clowns/entertainers concept their "main" concept which is still taken from f(x)'s vault

 

red velvet didn't influence **** in the kpop industry :rip: 

RV's Red & Velvet concept influenced BP's Black & Pink concept btw :clap3:

Isn't one of the biggest differences (artistry wise) between RV and NJ that NJ actually writes their own music? Literally all of NJ's hits have a group member working as a lyricist on them, whereas RV gets fed with old demos in the vault. It's really easy to see how creative input leads to better quality. 

NewJeans is truly the new BTS and their fans are the new armys huh :toofunny3:

im gonna go against the delusions here and say that NJ most resembles SHINee and absolutley nothing like shelved or F(ad)

Yall just need to use critical thinking a bit, okay bye

I literally never said any of these. Also if NJ's songs are planned years ahead, then how come they are also the "most accessible and trendy image rn"? Queen MHJ can predict the future I guess. At least pick a narrative. 

 

Also if MHJ knows what's trendy and accessible, why didn't she do it for fx or RV? She was secretly sabotaging them at SM? It just doesn't make sense

Girl you’re out here trying to sell Nwjns as some creative force in their music when its clear that their involvement is most likely minimal (considering that BTS is the only HYBE act that has some conteol in their music). 
And as already mentioned earlier, MHJ literally said that she already had the songs prepared prior to NWJns. But ofc you would ignore that to keep up this delusional premise that NWJns is some creative genius

 

I like Newjeans’s music but the Bunnies are serving Army-behavior (may be even worst) with only a fraction of BTS’ global success and musical talent. We could talk about NWJns being some creative force if they last through their current jailbait image with trendy music. 

The through-line between f(x) and Red Velvet is much more prevalent than between Red Velvet and NewJeans. :rip: Red Flavor, Happiness, Sappy, Russian Roulette, Birthday, Huff n Puff, Pose, Lady's Room, Attaboy, Zoo, #Cookie Jar, Aitai-tai etc etc could have all been f(x) songs with little to no adjustments and worked. Ofc Red Velvet have their R&B sound which f(x) never really did, but it's crazy to associate any K-POP girl group doing R&B to Red Velvet only.

 

Idk why that user keeps on trying to push the narrative that NewJeans is a Red Velvet rip off when nobody else sees it... the only song I could see Red Velvet straight up taking with no adjustments and working would be Hurt. 

 

And yeah, @MonsterNavy is correct about NewJeans being more f(x) than Red Velvet. Both NewJeans and f(x) focus(ed) on "youth" as a part of their image, while Red Velvet literally focused on the opposite (the Velvet side being more mature/older). Like it's easier to imagine early f(x) singing Hype Boy than Red Velvet.

That's so true 

If there's a group new jeans kind of look like is SHINee debut  finally someone said it :clap3: (and also some of f(x)) but really nothing of RV is in NJ

 

Anyways can't wait for NJ new comeback they gained so many fans since Ditto/OMG THEIR NEXT COMEBACK WILL DO HUGE DAMAGE! especially if HYBE decides to promote in the US this time :bird:

 

 

Chile this entire discussion. I don’t see what the issue is in noting certain similarities.
 

When a comparison is made it doesn’t mean that it applies across the board so this “RV wouldn’t be able to pull of x song” doesn’t hold up when it’s about a select few songs. :coffee2:
 

And I think people seem to think we’re talking about RV singles when it’s actually their bsides

All of NJ's songs are written by Ylva Dimberg who has worked heavily with Red Velvet. That plus MHJ's direct involvement makes the similarities significantly more evidential than subjective.

 

That's also a much more convincing argument than the "omg Red Velvet's Birthday cat is copying NJ's rabbit!!!" argument that NJ stans were trying to pull, a couple of months ago :cm:

 

As for the writing credits comments, it's well known for example that Yeri is on record saying she contributed lyrics to Red Flavor. But she was never credited. Wendy has also been seen acting as a vocal producer for the group on their recording behinds, but isn't credited for all that work. The industry is exploitative, but that doesn't take away from RV's talent throughout the years.
