I think eleven and love dive are not basic but I do agree with someone in this thread when said After Like is like Taio Cruz stater kit!

NJ musics are definitely not basic like they have very clear and distinctive references. Even Hurt has a clear inspiration from doo-*** music like how could you have a straight face when accusing their music as basic

The way Eleven and Love Dive don’t have unnecessary raps in them instantly made them quality for me 

And then y'll complained about why Gaeul didn't have more lines? Like pick a struggle

NJ make very catchy and breezy r&b-pop without it being cringe, how is that not fresh in the current K-pop landscape?

Kpop gg stans still complaining about the “noise” sound in 2023  and is the noise music trend in the room with us right now? 

Nnn speak on it. Who else is really doing "noise' aside from maybe aespa? It's clear that there's not really one singular trend dominating right now as opposed to when everyone was doing girl crush in 2018, and I honestly prefer it this way

No one seriously wants Gaeul to rap.  Just let her sing even if she’s weak vocally.

If anything’s innovative about NewJeans it’s the choreo. It’s v refreshing to watch kpop dances where they make so much eye contact and interact with each other rather than the ones where you can tell members are just counting down for their part in the center  it’s one of the reasons why you always hear people say they seem like a group of friends having fun

They have been doing the same choreo 3 times already the moves are straight up taken from Tik tok.

Who? I’m the one complaining about Liz. Pay attention babe. 
but now that you mentioned it, Gauel singing “oh my oh my god” three times and dipping isn’t exactly fair either, rap or not.

I wasnt speaking on the moves themselves but the interaction aspect. That’s kind novel to me as someone who watches mostly kpop dances. But it does give TikTok dancer friends that rehearsed a lil jig together I see what you mean

they got overshadowed by the new ggs i fear

I knew I liked her for a reason on Wednesday

Please It would have been a reject, but at least Ari would have added some vocals on it. 
 

You just have to check k hip hop/urban songs to see that OMG is just a basic rnb tune and Korean are familiar with this sound.

NJ are atleast doing fresh music, y'all really love the dated 2012 dance sound that much?

Just realized NewJeans sound is basically a rip off of Ariana Grande without the hit singles. Like if you took all her post Dangerous Woman non-single output and put the hook to 11 that's what their sound is, r&b-trap inspired pop music  MHJ really knows her stuff omg

FLO doesn't have the backing NewJeans have. I can't even remember the last time a girl group in the west debuted with commercial success from the bat without the propelling of a competition show so this comparison isn't making sense to me.

Not these f-words starting this IVE vs. NewJennies **** now 

 

yall gheys should be grateful that the girlies like IVE, NJ and LSRFM are serving GOOD music across the board and we are able to witness their slayage at this very moment 

 

stop the drama start the music 

 

(I’ll still complain about Liz not having enough lines though)

RIGHT?! That's what I'm peeved about, and not the OLHs in this thread calling her voice nasal like pls  she is NAWT a Jisoo or Lisa like pls, she deserves the Mia from EVERGLOW treatment!
