2022 Comebacks that surpassed expectations

Quote from Hopkinz

Rollin' - Vanner: Such a catchy chorus. It always puts a smile on my face.

I didn't expect to see them here, but I agree! I came across them by accident, and it's such a fun song.

Not a drippin stan, but I was really surprised with Zero! It's really good!

It goes without saying I love Doom Du Doom. Excited to see them perform it live next month.

Ily1 is my favorite rookie this year. I have liked every song by them so far

if hype boy didn't exist, i'd definitely agree with your soty pick. dm is too good

Quote from Hopkinz

They're good! They had a solid debut and an even better comeback. Can't wait to see what else they do

Even their pre debut was nice

Agreed with most of these, I'm most impressed with Drippin's releases this year, their albums were really good too

Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma

Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-Mars

I don't have any expectations because idk much about Nature but Limbo is indeed good

The song Ven para was fine, but it was a disappointment from its hype of being a concept switch. It was just like "That's it?".

They released a whole 20 minute documentary about it beforehand and a concept trailer, which raised people's expectations. Then when the MV was released, it looked less polished than the trailer.

For some reason they kept using this one ugly set and outfit set in the MV more than the actually good looking ones.

Good, Good

Good, Why?

I think this red set is almost solely responsible for people thinking this is boring, it just cheapens the epic feeling of the song

(They also only used this one at the end, saving it for the end)

And it also has corny lyrics like "I'm so spicy" and "Oh bumpy eh Oh bumpy Get low"

edit: Also people who spoke Spanish said "Ven para" doesn't mean anything without adding the "Aca" so the title didn't make sense.

me myself I thought it meant "They come for" because "Ven" is literally "They come" and "para" is for (for the purpose of)

But I heard Ven para aca means Come here

Anyway the song, it has a unique atmosphere and instrumental, but the visuals and lyrics made the music seem cheap by association

And the dance kind of sucks too.

Twice - their song and album were superb in my opinion and they have done well this year so much so that I can now call myself an official fan of them.

Kepler had three elite songs, two titles and a B side. Wadada, We Fresh and Le Voyage all greatly surpassed expectations.

Classy by Classy was amazing.

Cherry Bullet pulled out two bangers, Love in Space and B side Broken.

But it was my Izone girls that truly dominated 2022. Every single soloist had a hit song, some had multiple. Combine that with Impurities by Ssamkura and Afterlike by Ahnyeongz, this was the Year of Izone.
