again, no shade, but giselle had two left feet during the first few comebacks and couldn't be in sync with the others to save her life

 

she debuted after 11 months compared to ningning's 5 years and winter and karina's 4 years

 

she's now getting rewarded because she trained hard post debut and gained in skills in confidence. it's not that hard. she was clearly not on par with the others during the first few years

She was still the best rapper of the group since debut though. She has also always been a good singer, and also had the best tone in the group, since debut as well though :gaygacat4:

But that's because almost every NJ song is a title track. They only have 7 B-sides in their career so far and 10 title tracks. Aespa are only at 9 title tracks and would prefer to give us a full project than just three title tracks on an EP every year. 

 

hurt isn't a title and didn't have a MV and it was a smash in korea

 

:clack:

 

it's not their fault they had a top notch marketing and made music videos through collaborations with brands like Apple, Coca Cola, Powerpuff Girls etc.. it was literally genius for newjeans' branding and success. this is exactly what the members have been talking about. under min heejin, the marketing team and art team was basically working in tandem and were successful at what they were doing and hybe changed the entire system once they fired min heejin

 

so they were getting AMAZING songs and good marketing

oh i'm not disagreeing that she was still more talented at debut than most of idols. but ALL of aespa are incredibly talented so...

My queen Visuelle really needs to make the pink color her signature look, just like Chaewon making the black bob hers.


So whenever locals discover her for the first time they refer to her as "the girl with pink hair" and it becomes part of her brand

Sakura's situation is different, since  she herself has stated that she prefers to have less lines, ama

doesn't matter :coffee2:

some songs just work better (especially for groups with more than 6 members) when some idols get less parts and that's okay 

like i love him but imagine sehunty getting 20+ seconds lines in every song cause it's more "fair"

:clack:

Edited by hallucinate

completely disagree with the idea that rappers and non-singers need to get every line that's not vocally challenging. 
 

NingNing absolutely DEVOURED her 2nd verse in Whiplash. I cannot imagine any of the other girls tone delivering like hers did.

 

Sometimes it's just about delivery.

Sehun, is one of those rare cases who doesn't need to have 10 seconds of lines in each song:clack:

Lowkey amazing how she managed to do in 3 years (become a competent performer) what others (clc eunbin) couldn't do their entire careers 

:sabrina:

I've seen Sistar fans suggesting to give Dasom all the "easy" parts and thanks goodness the producers knew what they're doing. Imagine missing Hyolyn's amazing lower voice on the bridge of Touch My Body or on the entire second verse of I Swear

no but seriously she literally became a superstar right in front of our eyes while in 2022 she could barely follow the choreos :deadbanana2:

I edited my comment, since I forgot to add "doesn't"

 

Like I completely agree that Sehun needs to sing as less as possible :suburban:

I'm 100% sure that SM pretty much tortures their idols to improve (well, on smaller groups at least...). Taemin's skills were basically non-existent on SHINee's first two years.

Speaking of line distributions, the way SKZ have arguably the most fair line distribution in Kpop especially for a group with 8 members:clap3:

Like the fact that there's only 5 seconds between the member with the most lines and least lines in Chk Chk Boom :clap3:

Thank you! Another proof that equal line distribution doesn't translate into good music.

Because it sounds nothing like NewJeans. Honestly NewJeans has better songs. Like Attention, Hype Boy, Super Shy, Ditto are million miles better.
 

It's pure jealousy. If the song flop, Heehee wil not drag these girls into the scandal. What a nasty woman to drag innocent girls to her war with HYBE
