Did Hybe sabotage Enhypen by giving them pass the mic for their comeback?

I'm not an enhypen fan, but I like their songs more than txt and was expecting some bops like drunk dazed or fever. They gained a lil attention with polaroid love and the came back with THAT song?

I do like mess and like to speculate because I've read a couple of discussions asking if Hybe didn't like how enhypen were doing better than txt(idk if it's true, that's what I read), selling 1m already in their 1st year, 1b streams on spotify and stuff. Though since their shares are only 48%, they won't get all the profits which is why they'd rather their own fully owned groups do better.

Do you think it's true and that's why they gave that song to them? Because I've seen comments saying how enhypen are losing momentum and their fans are leaving after the tragedy that is pass the mic?

they sabotage themselves for being bullies

it was good song with good rappers

hybe overestimated their abilities

they're tried to do smth similar to skz, nct music, but flopped

This is so true I love their music but cannot get myself to stan them because of their personalities .

it's not a bad song, it's just not for them. i think if stray kids or bts were given that song, they would kill it.

That’s very possible tbh

if they're bullies irl as what you claim them to be then why are their past clean? someone could've outed them. The fact that their acquaintances are very supported and happy when they debuted tells a lot about them as a person.

that makes no sense... who needs people to call them out from the past since the bullying is happening right now

the way they pick on sunoo's weight is disturbing and it's definitely bullying especially sunghoon

Isn't fat jokes in their culture tho? Koreans are def not complaining

They tried to be nct or skz but failed hard

weight jokes are definitely not ok. It happens to other groups too but kpop fans are too focus on enhypen. I don't know why kpop fans throw the word "bully" so easily to idols. If you can call it bullying then nct are the biggest bully for always teasing haechan's weight and skin color... tzuyu was also teased for having dark skin... skz changbin was teased by his members about his weight... txt member was called a pig and someone gave a member a book about 'obesity'... all of these are bad taste jokes.

yes the korean sides are not seeing the issue as a bullying only the international sides

Oh do you know which group or member that was?

Sabotage?? Nope. Enhypen just lost momentum with tamed-dashed and blessed-cursed. They got lucky with Polalove. Hybe?? They didn't care about Enhypen at all.

I mean hybe is in charge of producing MUSIC while cj is for management afaik

What do you mean they don't care at all lmao

I don't think there is intentional sabotage.

Future Perfect isn't a surprising title track if you think consider Blessed Cursed.

But if you think about it, Enhypen's biggest songs are Fever and Polaroid Love which were both bsides and went viral on tiktok because the fandom pushed the edit trend. Before Fever became popular, engenes tried to make an edit trend with Drunk-Dazed, and kpop twitter clowns it to this day (the edits were all terrible because the song is just not for editing). Polaroid Love also overshadowed Blessed Cursed because its trend became more popular than Blessed Cursed's. And the Tamed-Dashed between those two went relatively silently.

So I really don't think it's sabotage. Hybe just failed to consider what kind of music the group is capable of performing. TXT's GBGB was also not well received, and the change was even more dramatic than what Enhypen did. I really just think that the company is not that smart or got too cocky

they're from hybe, is it really that surprising?

But they still get profit.

Blessed-Cursed is not excellent, but it's way better than FP
