Netizens discuss how YG Entertainment's music sounds the same over the past 15 years

AKP STAFF

A netizen posted on a popular online community that started a debate about YG Entertainment's music. The topic centers around the observation that YG's music has maintained basically the same sound for over 15 years.

On April 8, a netizen wrote a post titled, "YG has fallen so far behind when it comes to music quality," and explained, "They've been doing the same type of music other than AKMU and G-Dragon who compose and produce their own unique music." The post continued, "They don't seem to challenge themselves or experiment with new music. They always go backward in trends."


Other netizens commented:

"I think the reason YG's song quality initially seemed good was because of Teddy + naturally talented producing members."
"Since neither of them are there, their level is worse than solo independent labels."
"Teddy left so..."
"The song quality went down so bad after Teddy left." 
"Many comments are saying that their music quality has remained stagnant since the 2000s."
"Seriously, it was all carried by Teddy. Looking at what they release these days, it's all just YG-style imitation songs haha. They sound similar to their old songs but the quality has dropped."
"Teddy was a real genius."

"2NE1 to BLACKPINK to now BABYMONSTER, sounds similar."

"YG has been releasing the same type of song for 15 years."
"After Teddy left, their music is low quality."
"Teddy and G-Dragon were the main breadwinners of this company," 
"Lately, I've been realizing that Teddy really played an important role in YG."

"YG also had many good composers in the past... But Yang Hyun Suk was so focused on chart performance that he completely ignored and disrespected rookie composers... By relying solely on Teddy for everything, now that Teddy's gone, this is the mess they're in, what can you do."

And it's been a long time since Yang Hyun Suk's sense declined, I don't know what confidence he has to think he can produce everything himself. lol."

If netizens meant Babymonster then perhaps yes they are true. But if you talk about boy groups like Winner and Treasure, they compose their own music so it does not sound Teddy music.
