superyeah ~ Since you're talking about the pairing of these two, do you honestly to see an official Woke Up In Tokyo MV??
After the initial shock of hearing a preview of their song a few months ago, I now want to see the MV and I bet it would be goofy as hell.

Yes! The more MVs, the better. YG Entertainment is ending the YG dungeon allegations these days with all these MVs and other content.
I think Asa and Ruka are both very goofy, so it'll be great.
They were probably respecting Asa and Ruka’s creative input! That’s a good start.

They had writing credits??
Ahyeon is also great, though!

Yes!
Ruka is minji's Japanese cousin

Best duo rapper in their generation 
I don't think people wrote them off. It was more about YG. He's giving them crap (rap) songs. Honestly, "TOKYO" is much better than "CLIK CLAK".
Imo, people sleeping on Rami more than anyone. She's the best vocalist, and she's a much better rapper than Ahyeon, and I think she's better than Ruka as well.
Best duo rapper in their generation
I wouldn't go that far when we have Young Posse, but Asa, Rami and Ruka are in the TOP5* for sure. The 5th gen is strong with female rappers. 4th gen only has like Soyeon and that's all, basically.
My TOP5 in the 5th gen would be. Had to edit my list, because I mixed up KIOF with Purple Kiss, I can't keep up with the gens anymore.😂
1. Sunhye (Young Posse)
2. Emma (Badvillain)
3. Asa (Babymon)
4. Rami (Babymon)
*More like TOP10 now that I made my list.
too nasal for my liking, also don't like the way she strains her voice
I think that's the result of taking YG's advice, sadly.
I think she said this in some videos.
But, I don't know if she meant it as a joke or was being serious.

You remember! Here, Ahyeon spoke about how she was trained to sing like that. You can see Rora and Chiquita agreed with her, too, so it's definitely a thing. When the show's host tried it, Rora and Chiquita expressed their approval. It's pretty funny.

I don't hear any nasally vocals. It sounded natural-- like her normal register.
So, I still don't understand why he and every other(?), if not, all labels probably force their artists to slightly fake their vocals!
Then they wonder why their artists get scrutinized and judged into the ground by listeners and fans about it. Or the labels honestly do not care.
I guess for her rap parts it made sense to YG's ears. But why????
Unless he's musically trolling her for his entertainment. Poor girl!! The torture!!
Regardless, he's an ass for doing it even if it was guidance.

whatever his advice was, it's backfiring. She's receiving like an unhealthy amount of hate, every viral tiktok seems to mock her scream or criticise her tone, claiming she'll damage her voice. On top of that ppl also called out her effort/overdancing etc.

Only because this isn't live, YGE always fixing the audio. All these trainee performances are not raw. They heard them sing live, but the videos are edited. There was another song that Ahyeon sang, but I can't find it, it was MILES BETTER, and more fitting to her skills and range.

Most Idols using that technique because many fans love it. The problem is that if a singer is still underdeveloped and young like her, it can harm her.
EXACTLY! YGE want attention, and they're literally throwing her under the bus, because she's the most popular member. Kids nowadays can't focus for more than 1 minute, they won't do research about why she's doing that and they don't know anything about vocal skills. They will just blame her, because she's the face.

I think its less about her nasal tone and more about her straining.
I dunno why she always has to go an extra pitch on all her highnotes but that's a problem. And I'm sure her "screaming" is just her trying to project her voice. But her voice is sort of high pitched so when she tries to project it, it'll come out as screaming.
Personally, I think she should rely on nasal resonance because that'll help her more than doing wtv she doing now that will eventually ruin her voice.
And I'm not gonna comment on her overdancing because im not tryna be branded a hater. All I'll say is: they all need to work on being more synchronized as a group.

I don't know what video was that, probably one of the behind for the DRIP song, where the producers said, Ahyeon's gonna hate the high note. So, everyone knows they shouldn't do this, yet, they're still forcing her.
Yes, she sounds like "screaming" because she's young and underdeveloped. A couple of more parts like this, and she's gonna lose her ability to sing. This is why I hate YG, he doesn't care, he wants fast success.
The overdancing part is also true, but I'm almost 100% sure that it's also an order from YGE, but now she's not doing it, and people are talking about that too. YGE messed up, she can't do anything that will please everyone.
Imo, this group synchronization is overrated. I'm not saying every Kpop group member should do whatever they want, but when we're talking about a VOCAL GROUP like Mamamoo or Babymon, they should rely more on their vocal/rap performance, and not just dancing. Honestly, Babymonster are NOTHING like a typical YGE group. They would be so much better at a company like S2 (KIOF's company) or even at that shithole RBW (Mamamoo's company).
BTW, this how Ahyeon can sing, when no one is forcing her to stupid things.
For comparison, I will show this, because this performance of MAMAMOO was really hyped back then, but Solar's High Note was anything but perfect. She's also had to overdo high notes sometimes, but for her, it was a bit easier, because she was older and better trained, not to mention more agile.
Shut up David!!!!!!!
Yup. That's a trend that has been present in most of the BIG4 Companies.
Imo, this group synchronization is overrated.
They aren't consistently synchronized, imo but you'll hear people saying how they are still new to the game even though a lot of groups are synchronized from the start. I'll bring up an example: IZNA. They are a much more coordinated group for one that only trained together for a few months but ya ill shut up now.

Don't know anything about IZNA, but the last girl group that was perfectly synchronized is GFriend, probably, and they weren't one of the best because of that. Groups can have the best synchronization if that's all they can do. Without vocal/rap talent and stage presence, it means nothing.
I didn't share the video of Mamamoo, because I wanted to promote them, LOL! It's not always my point. I shared that video, because even Solar, one of the best vocalist, overdone high notes as a rookie. This high note obsession is not only applies for BIG4 agencies, this is about the whole Kpop, and music in general.
Also, I always said, Babymon could be a similar group like Mamamoo, even if they're not as strong vocally, YET, probably never will, but still.

are you basing that off 1 performance? I'll admit their synchronization (or lack of) is noticeable in recent performances of Drip but to say "they aren't synchronized at all" implies you've not seen many of their performances, because it isn't true.

Yeah people hype up highnotes way too much.
They think high notes = superior vocals and that's simply not true.
I know but brought up IZNA because they are in the same generation as BABYMONSTER.
Also GFriend yes but also IZ*ONE. Those are the two perfectly synchronized groups i can think of.
yea I can agree with that. I just think it's a cheap way of taking a dig at the group, not too dissimilar to using LSF's vocals to drag them. I mean that in the sense that saying LSF can't sing at all isn't true, and being able to sing well isn't the only thing that matters. Likewise with BABYMONSTERS synchronization. It is somewhat jarring in their music show performances but I really don't think it matters much in the concert setting where they are having fun with it.

True but they just debuted so there's plenty of time to improve and I hope YG does not hinder their growth.
