Well, if she’s any indication…there’s a reason why there’s not a lot of women at the top. They could solve this right quick and have half of them identify as women.
Ooo...this take is yikes....
so she can get "inspired" by other artists but gets mad when other groups do the same for her?
there's a difference of getting influenced by artists from decades ago who are no longer active vs. blatantly copying a currently active group under the same label..................
Yayyyyy, thissss is the concept that fits them--refreshing and fun. Crush was nottttt it for me, but this and In Bloom are perfect for them!
Awww, I love that Anton got to go to this show! He's the perfect member for it. So cute!
I think they need to re-instate the position of main vocal. It's great that there are no positions and everyone gets to try everything these days, but it's still important to have at least 1 (preferably 2) really good singers in a group.
I wish groups these days would let the vocals skip out on some of the choreo so that they could deliver solid vocals like they used to do. You can see Taeyeon doing very light choreo during her parts to focus on singing. I always thought this was better bc not only did it allow them to be more stable, but it also spotlighted them since they weren't just doing the exact same choreo as everyone else.
I wonder how many people actually watched the whole encore stage? Not knocking that they have talent but there were multiple areas with notes off pitch and key, and the blond one (not sure of names) was thready at best in parts. I feel like the only reason this is being lauded as 'exceptional' is to jump on a hate bandwagon - it wasn't too bad but not great, and not exceptional by most standards. It was a representation of talent without a ton of stage experience. Again - no hate, they did pretty good!
I mean this song is actually difficult to sing--it's not just sing-talking (not throwing shade at LSF, most of k-pop is just sing-talking nowadays). To hear them truly singing and doing a pretty good job of it already puts them miles ahead of most other groups nowadays, which is why I think they're getting credit.
CONGRATSSSSS MY ANGEL!!!! Welcome back <3 I hope they take great care of him and he's able to release the type of music that he wants (with a little pop song here and there as well, hehe)!
Are YG stans not tired of literally hearing the same song 10 times in a row from every BP comeback to now this? Like seriously...it's.......just......re-skinned versions of the same thing over and over and over. What happened to the days when every Big Bang and 2NE1 song tried something new and completely different? It's literally just Teddy making the exact same song and slightly tweaking it now, sigh...
Pleaaaase be more similar to their debut song than their most recent comeback! Their debut was soooooooooo good!!
Eunbi is beautiful and a gentleman :p
Kpop has always been competition + capitalism. Fans obsess over things like popularity and competition rankings, brand endorsements, revenue per member, etc.
I'm talking about the sound. As the companies collab more with western companies (especially HYBE), the sound of kpop becomes more and more western and less and less like its own unique thing.
And the death of k-pop as we knew it continues....
yasssss trot queen to real estate queen!!!
hmmm I like the sunny concept from the other photo set more...I like their brighter/magical concepts more like sugar rush ride, blue hour, etc! and it's spring so hopefully they go with a brighter vibe
Okay, real talk, how do they keep their eyes that wide all the time???
lol wonyoung said you are NOT escaping on my watch...deserved tbh
lol I honestly think the song quality of k-pop has just gone down soooo much. I used to really, REALLY love the music which would make me feel inclined to buy the album. now, even for my favorite groups, they'll release songs and I'll either have to force myself to like it or I'll just listen to it a few times and say to myself "guess i'll wait for the next comeback...". It's hard to buy albums for comebacks you feel meh about :(
Crazy that she can sweep all the charts when IU just put out an album. I feel like this is the first time someone has done that?? Congrats!
How could Exy miss the 8th anniversary...???
.
OT13 - given the right songs, WJSN would have been bigger than Sistar, IVE, etc.
Happy 8th Anniversary WJSN!
oop, was here for it until the sistar shade....methinks not.
omg her first good comeback in years, but i cant support her anymore :(
