it's what the public craves
it's what the public craves
who???????????
typical YG
it needs to stop being typical YG
Because people keep streaming their cringey songs, so why improve?
Perhaps pride in ones work? Would you be able to rest your head at night knowing your legacy is lines such as "hippity hop like boom boom pow"? but no I will not stop streaming regardless
i always pretend i don't understand the lyrics
English isn't my first language and it's easy for me to not "hear" lyrics but native english speaking people don't have that privilege lol
I agree with you, as that is how it should be. But that isn’t the case here because at the end of the day kpop is a business and this is how they make the most money, unfortunately.
At this point the song structure annoys me more
It always ends with a part like "let's party oh yeah uhu"
At least sometimes he forgets to put it
I actually didn't mind the end on this one, it was pretty cool and a bit different than the usual YG end. But the endings always been a gripe for me with YG music, and reminds me of another wonderful cringe lyric "look up in the sky, its a bird, its a plane".
what's the difference between eeny meeny miny mo , with shy shy shy, with zim zim zala bim zim zim, with su su supernova ah-oh ayy, with baddie ba-ba-badie badie, with with oh my oh my god oh my oh my god, with hit you with ddu du ddu du, with gee gee gee gee baby baby.
they, are, all, the, same. 
It’s a problem all throughout K-pop when it comes to English rap lyrics. YGE just happens to be the most rap-focused, so it tends to happen with them more.
If the lyricists aren’t great in English rap lyrics, they should just stick with Korean rap lyrics.
Even Soyeon, who’s known to be a great rap lyricist, writes some cringe English lyrics sometimes. I think she’s working with a lot of pressure to keep up with expectations after “Tomboy,” so she’s trying to replicate that success. It seems like (G)I-DLE’s title tracks are getting more and more English, and I don’t think it has the same natural flow as their earlier music.
We haven’t really seen much of BABYMONSTER members’ writing just yet, so we can’t blame them for it. But back when iKON had B.I, he and Bobby were a great writing and rapping duo. Their lyrics were mostly Korean and everything flowed well. It didn’t feel forced.
It's kpop.
Western rap tends to incorporate references to pop culture and old sayings. It works well when it’s clever and the surrounding lyrics tie into the reference well.
They try to emulate that in K-pop, but the lyricism isn’t advanced enough, often due to the language barrier. In some ways, it gets a pass because this is K-pop, but when a song is entirely rap-focused, the lyrics matter a lot more.
YGE lyrics were always in the cringe side, but their others groups had such an amazing presence that even I didn't mind like I twerk when Lisa says BITCH IM STAR, BUT NO PATRICK 
But baemon case is beyond bad bc the girls are all kids trying to rap like, their attitude doesn't come strong and their lyrics about "they always follow/copy me" and "I'm the best, the top" is crazy cringe bc they aren't successful enough to be saying it yet.... It's insane a lyric like this charting in the top300 
But I ignore all of this and still listen to them sometimes, how? I just don't think 
I forget that I know English or that I know how to read and just enjoy the music 
And yes, this is a Kpop problem, but this thread is about YGE so yeah.
Because all the good writers left the building long time ago.😂

Yea this is exactly what my gripe is. I of course have no issue with cringe lyrics in kpop else I wouldn't be able to listen to half of my faves lol. But when you are trying to pull off a concept like BM did for Clik Clak and a big part of your label's identity is hip-hop, I expect you to bring your A game lyrics wise.
XG was able to do it pretty dam well with Woke Up which actually has some legitimate bars imo. And I do understand the language barrier and can excuse that, but then why not just outsource english lyrics to native english rappers or something? Like I said in my original post, it's just hard for me to imagine a collective of people hearing "eeny meeny miny mo" and thinking "yea this is the best we can do". I can excuse basic lyrics but that stuff is just nonsensical.

Different opinions, heard about it? And this is a rap based song, what are you talking about? Op is talking specifically after Click Clack dropped.
According to google king Kong ding dong ping pong isn't even a new rhyme
They should at least make us believe it's a new invention, like bboom bboom or ring ding dong
And bboom bboom is a plagiarized song loll

I'm terrible at blackpink discography, i know only their singles. I legit thought this was gibberish that you made up on the spot. 
I googled it just in case and was shocked to find out these are actual lyrics. Jfc. Someone got paid for writing this. Wow
Same for BM. Wow

Okay but the OP made a general statement that YG lyrics are cringe when no its mainly the English rap lyrics that are cringe. if you translated Korean songs into english from other groups you would also find a lot of cringe shit.
YG being a more rap focused company would obviously have more cringe english lyrics sadly.

Oh, understood.
I think YGE eng raps in their kr songs are a bit cringe, but in baemon this cringeness amplifies (?) bc they are teens still.
Its because they are young do these like money money lyrics it is a bit weird
English isn't my first language and it's easy for me to not "hear" lyrics but native english speaking people don't have that privilege lol
it low-key pains me sometimes cause I'm just vibing and sometimes some groups raps come on and its like a 
and I'm like ".........well its ok.........but at least the song's good"
