What does YG have that SM doesn’t have?

A love for hip-hop, they started doing hip-hop every since YG started

Flop ikon and winner

Let’s not forget treasure

yg only has blackpink

music that doesn’t sound like pots getting into fights with pans

the real blackpink and not a copycat

Vocals

Drugs and pimps

They have blackpink and they are enough to outimpact the whole company

People trash YG all day, then as soon as the subject of Blackpink comes up - "they're only successful because they're with YG". How does that work?

Nothing

the roast in here

my blink ass will excuse itself.

They sing live, have stage presence, are charismatic and unique despite sm trying to replicate them and they are also famous. Also their artistry relies on their aesthetic according to everyone in kpop and the girls have said that they got the hand on their aesthetic so your claim ain't valid enough

Originality.

Drug trafficking inside their basement

I think the differences are in the narrative they try to create. SM is for the perfect idol. YG is for the bad ass swag idol. Both completely artificial and disingenuous. But that is how they dupe the kpop fans.
