It's the opposite for me. I haven't had a song of theirs on repeat since Dice

It's a testament to how great Blackpink are as idols. Like with Rosé, BP's concept is totally different to who she actually is and what music she'd release, but she still delivered every comeback convincingly

Well to start with they were on the right age to debut but then again we had Minzy who was like 15  

[Mel.]

As for "BATTER UP" flopping….

 

i mean, they dropped it and basically went ghost, all we got was 3 YouTube performances, so I don't think it's fair to call it a flop when they didn't promote it outside of YouTube. We don't know what would've happened if they promoted it

 

"SHEESH" dropped and debuted at #250 on Melon daily and went on to become a hit and enter the top 10 on every chart after promotion.

BP never did a concept like "CLIK CLAK" tho

Guess not everyone can Debut with a Hit 🤭

They are definitely serving NMIXX teas in terms of a fumbled debut and terrible music/concept direction, yet with (some) talented members.

 

Out of the big 3 GG debuts, it seems SM was the only one who got it right this time. aespa delivered Next Level within 6 months of debut

 

Black Mamba is also a masterpiece whether or not it flopped

I never said it wasn't!

And comparatively it didn't flop either! 

 

[Mel.]

"DRIP" is already starting off better than all their other songs, so the growth is happening…they just need to promote. YG pusses me off waiting a full week before starting them, that's what hurts them a lot. Every other group promotes immediately and here's YG waiting a whole ass week when that time is critical, but it's doing well without promo thus far

Still screaming that Giselle joining SM completely changed aespa's concept, truly told all the cute girlies to pack it up and suddenly having the members practice Nicki raps is kinda sickening

[Zack]

Also speaking of GG debuts, it seems SM completely scrapped that planned group debut. 

 

There's barely 2 months left of 2024 and we haven't heard a thing. I think they totally reorganized the debut team/members, which would explain the many delays.

"We're the only girls running the game in heels" while all wearing flats, the same as Click Clack the sounds of our heals Clack while all wearing sneakers.

I'm still gagging @ Rosé defeating THEE G-DRAGON. I guess I underestimated how big "APT" is in Korea

 

she really did that. atp who's gonna be able to defeat her? If GD idk who can

They're streaming "DRIP" on apple music, we need the girls to stream on Melon, FLO, Bugs, VIBE and Genie…

lemme just believe they're giving us another unit......

I blame all the BoA haters

 

Unfortunately, I feel like "GOT The Beat" is probably OVER and NEVER coming back. 

 

Their SNS has been inactive for almost 2 years and SM doesn't even list them as a main group on the website anymore. You know it's over when even naevis is listed as a highlight, but not you. 

 

We will have to consider "Stamp On It" as a self-predicting bop, I fear

 

 

OT: I'm so ready to be proved wrong though. Justice for Girls On Top!

Didn't YG congratulate BABYMONSTER on BATTER UP getting 100 million views saying it was the fastest debut song to reach that milestone?

It's not about what you consider their debut, it's what IS their debut and every official site has April 1st as their debut date 

Sheesh being released on April 1st tells us everything we need to know about it NOT being their debut though. YG was probably just fooling y'all 

 

Anyways:

Quote

Babymonster debuted on November 27, 2023, with the release of the single "Batter Up" as a six-piece ensemble. Member Ahyeon, whom due to personal health issues, was unable to partake in the group's activities and was excluded from the debut line-up.

They should've sticked to the original plan and switch up the lineup after Step Back. I remember people being hyped about what the next lineup was going to look like, but SM got too carried away when Step Back became a hit and used the same lineup which ruined the hype of the project I think?

Into the New world was a top 5 charting song, and Peaked at number 2. Something BabyMonster never done.

I think they went with a comeback for GOT The Beat because Step Back was a hit.

 

Stamp On It came out in the middle of the SM 3.0 mess, the release was botched and both aespa and RV fans boycotted the album (due to aespa album delay and RV mismanagement). So with that, it was doomed. 

 

I agree, they should have created a new unit of GOT. There are so many talented female idols in SM who they could showcase in another unit.

SM saw how hard NMIXX and Baemon are flopping so they're scared to debut a NGG
