NMIXX is like RV without the hit music

  • Praised for talent and visual, but RV was able to get several hit or semi-hit songs, ICC, DD, RF, PAB, BB, Psycho, FMR. And even with all that RV lagged behind Twice and BP because people didn't think they were as charismatic, which people also say about NMIXX.

  • Not so sure if it's a lack of charisma for RV, since RV's members like Irene and Joy and Seulgi often ranked as high and in some cases even higher than BP and especially TWICE members in SK popularity listings in those 3rd gen years. Especially Irene.


    I think it's more a matter of promotion and strategic choices that caused RV to fall behind BP and TWICE more than they needed to: SM just wasn't as effective, strong and impactful in their promotion and branding of RV as JYP and YG Entertainment were. SM often ignored opportunities that could've lifted RV up where as JYP and YG utilised their resources smarter and better. Additionally, SM's conscious choice to have RV have a concept path duality, Red vs Velvet, might have been more entertaining for fans, it also put up a higher threshold for other music fans.


    NMIXXX seems to have a sortlike issue: yes, hit songs are absolutely important. But I also get the feeling that NMIXXX isn't promoted and hyped as smartly and strongly as some other girl groups are. Thinking about this, it almost seems like JYP have been flailing and failing with the management and promotion of their newer girl groups, both ITZY and NMIXXX.

  • like Irene and Joy and Seulgi often ranked as high and in some cases even higher than BP and especially TWICE members in SK popularity listings in those 3rd gen years. Especially Irene.

    Where lmao, RV members except Irene have never ranked above Twice members on Gallup. Tzuyu is the highest ranking foreign idol in history and ranked inside top 20 for three years straight. J-line also appeared on the list in 2018-19 but Wendy and Yeri never did and Joy never ranked above Sana.

  • In order to have hit songs, your music has to not be terrible. It just so happens that NMIXX's music is consistently terrible. They also don't have the visuals IMO. Needless to say, I don't see any similarities.

    .

    Even without promo RV has always been behind both groups because they had a small fanbase. I’m sorry but saying JYP/YG promoted BP & Twice correctly is hilarious to me.

  • I'm in denial that NMIXX is doing so poorly because of "O.O." I can admit that their music just doesn't seem to be the taste of the general public*** though.


    Red Velvet, while not really at the level of Blackpink or Twice (at least in terms of sales), were still a top group, so I don't think it's a fair comparison. The issue is that JYPE is now doing relatively poorly with ITZY and NMIXX. They need to figure out what's going on there because it doesn't look like it's an NMIXX issue but a JYPE issue.


    Any insight as to how their boy groups are doing?

  • I like Nmixx's music. it's not for everyone and that's ok. Typically the most popular stuff is trash anyway. if we follow the logic that streams = good music than Drake is the best rapper ever and Tswift is the best pop musician to ever exist which would be depressing if true.


    people who use streaming numbers as some sort of personal win bc their group is doing well and that somehow translates to them are sad af.
