HYBEs recent music is ass

Quote from Varenka

It's not just a HYBE problem. Mid and top tier groups have been putting out flops after flops for most of 2024. Fall might be an upswing though:

- Meovv's debut, so maybe Teddy can work some magic

- Izna is debuting too

- Diawings came out with a decent single

- Rescene came out with a bop to wrap up the summer competition

- Fifty Fifty might be cooking something is their pre-release is just the safe version of their title track

- Mimiirose went bopping with "the flowers swayed"

- Loosemble came out decent

- Young Posse is improving

- aespa coming back too

- Madein also appeared

- And did you miss Younha's comeback? Go stream it.

- Hyoyeon is coming out with another blop, but Sooyoung is coming back

Fall is about save 2024 K-pop

The problem is exclusively in HYBE, because their low-quality product is constantly at the top of the charts, other companies see that they can save significantly on music production. Last year was legendary for K-pop, this year many groups continued to maintain the quality bar aespa, Red Velvet, nmixx, Twice, h1-key, but in general the trend began to go towards TikTok and music promotion. As a result, the Hybe model turned out to be working, but not enough to survive for a long time.

Quote from Kouss

TBH, besides TxT and SVT, i don’t think there’s been that much of a drop in quality.

Is Crazy the best album? No, but it’s a fluke in a longer line of good album, especially following Easy (which was a solid mini).

Also every New Jeans release as been great, so your drunk if you think Supernatural isn’t up to par with Ditto etc.

Supernatural is their best song since Ditto and Hype Boy. Duh!

If it was all korean, it would have destroyed the k charts.

Bubble Gum is better than Ditto

Crazy is definitely better than Unforgiven (so is Easy)

You seriously included BTS who haven't released anything this year but as soloists RM released AOTY

Deja Vu is just as good as Runaway

This seems to be a you problem
