RIGHT?! That's what I'm peeved about, and not the OLHs in this thread calling her voice nasal like pls :deadbanana4: she is NAWT a Jisoo or Lisa like pls, she deserves the Mia from EVERGLOW treatment!

I’m severely worried about their hearing if they think Liz is nasal or “talentless” :dies:

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. 
 


 

The way I wanted to say 

this song would’ve been hated if it was released by Ariana (but I would still love it)

people think OMG is unique but that’s a typical k-R&b song it just that most of those songs aren’t really mainstream in Korea

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 

Yeah that’s kinda true they seem like to enjoy performing 

newjeans songs are way more interesting tha ive's tbh

ive pop songs are so basic

why does every japanese idol group have to have a Camila Cabello lookalike?? first NiziU and now XG...

 

love XG tho. can't wait for their comeback :duca:

 

HEY, HI, how you do? gonna gell em baby how we do

X-G, cute and nice, but we won't ever let ya mess up twice

Its simply not possible for ATRLers or Stans in general to live in a world where multiple females/female groups are slaying and not pit them against each other. 
 

Just stop thinking that's ever going to happen :deadbanana2:

Ariana wishes

  

  

 

 

I was about to post this lol they really thought!

I need to somehow transfer those opinions about NewJeans’ music being Ariana inspired to Ari base! can’t wait for even more support for NewJennies! 

 

also, no more AriPink, I think, AriJeans seems like a natural pairing in such case!

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

It’s bc some people are saying that NJ are doing rnb which is very debatable, meanwhile the real rnb group Flo is here.

 

Anyways they are very different in every aspects.

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 :deadbanana4: MHJ really knows her stuff omg

OMG and Cookie are the basic and typical poppy/trappy songs. Cute songs but nothing fresh.

 

only attention and Ditto imo

a k rnb song was #1 last year and that 2 others #1 were from urban artists. It’s not mainstream but they are familiar with the sound.

Just enjoy the music all of the girls are slaying 

 Ive newjennies lesserafim and I'm sure aespa too 

 

Enjoy them and be happy the boy groups are on the ground

It's true they're not really an rnb group but in the sphere of kpop they're considered that which makes sense. They kinda just fuse a whole lot of genres but with their main influence being rnb.

only Cookie and OMG sound a bit like Ariana bc of the trap beats but Ariana wouldn’t literally put those songs out, they’re still kpop’d

 

also Love Dive has the be the most overrated song here, it’s great but the bridge sucks, the post chorus isn’t the most interesting and After Like is a much bigger bop :mandown:

Which EXO album is considered as their best by the general opinion ?

Yikes :ace: why ? EX’ACT b sides are so forgettable

it’s literally top 3 in their discography :biblio:

 

Haerin might just be my favorite 4th gen idol

 

Not sure why because I don't think she's the best singer, dancer, nor does she have the best stage presence but her aura just makes me feel so drawn to her, more so than any other idols out there now

 

Perhaps the Bora resemblance has too much of a chokehold on me idk

How would y’all feel about ATRL’s First K-Pop Awards? Maybe 10 categories?

We need a category for mothers so Dilemma can actually win an award (though SNSD would surely snatch :chick3:)

The number of times I’ve dreamed about Ariana releasing Attention and Hype boy, I can’t keep entertaining this idea :gaycat6:
