A song like kep1er Up! can be released by any girlgroup

I like the song, but compared to Wa Da Da it was pretty boring.

Kep1er needs better music asap.

Its just... not good. They're the worst "produce" group in that regard so far.

I beg to differ wa da da was tragic THIS sounded like a nugu song.

I was a bit mild about the song at first (probably because I expected some kind of WA DA DA 2.0) but it's actually a great song.

I feel like the problem with kepler is they haven't really carved an identity for themselves, unlike other produce groups who had a recognisable sound and look which allowed them to be successful. Up was definitely an improvement from wadada though and I hope they continue down this route instead.

i actually love up

Agreed, it's a generic song. LeVoyage is actually a damn good bop though and shouldve been the title, it's a summer song. Wadada is a SOTY contender so i'm not unhappy overall with their music.

The lack of identity is striking when i compare them with izone. Izone music to aesthetics all of it was theirs.

Unpopular opinion here, but I feel like Izone is only special for those who watched Produce back then. How can one make sense of so many members? It doesn't help that they all wear the same kind of uniform like clothing in the MVs. Who's main vocals, lead vocals, rapper? I have no idea.

At least with Kep1er, based off WA DA DA alone I was able to notice a few members because of their specific talent that were actually showcased in the song.

But maybe that's just me.

I feel like it’s due to the rigging since day one they have a clear vision of who would debuted. While In Kepler everyone voted for their favs, that’s why they’re less cohesive than Izone.

If cohesive means they kinda all look/sound alike, then sure. As far as I'm concerned, I think it's quite boring though. Therefore I like that Kep1er members have clearer and more specific sets of skills.

People voted for their faves but isn't the purpose of a survival show? At the end of the day, in terms of roster Kep1er didn't turn out so bad. Everyone brings something unique to the table (except for Bahiyyih who could be swapped for any other contestant imo).

I kinda agree with this but izone had more standout members still especially in Sakura and Wonyoung. Also i was talking more about group concept which izone had their own signature.

For sure their songs were good. But as for the individual appeal of members, I never really got it. Even now, after they redebuted in their new groups. I don't really see what's so great about Sakura, Wonyoung...

Bobcut Chaewon though? This I can stan lol

I really like UP and it gives me happy positive vibes, I prefere it over wa da da.

I also liked wa da da lol

Up >>> Up!

I said what I said.
