  • What I said here:


    My ranking: Rebel Heart > You Wanna Cry > FLU >>>>>>>>>>> the rest!


  • I love TKO and Attitude. Flu is alright, but not playlist-worthy for me.


    The I Wanna Dance With Somebody sample in You Wanna Cry doesn't work for me at all and it's so off-putting and distracting, I just want to sing the original. The Attitude sample works better. Overall not their strongest album, but I got a couple of songs I like.

  • I knew 'You Wanna Cry' would be one of my favorite songs off this album based off the album teaser and I was right. Overall I also really like 'Rebel Heart' and 'Flu'. 'TKO' is decent as well, 'Attitude' and 'Thank U' are meh.

  • TKO is that song for me :pepemusic:

    I can't stop listening to it, the chorus is so so beautiful (Yujin's and Liz's voices :pleading:<3) and it's super addicting. Usually hiphop sound isn't my cup of tea but here the mash up of styles actually works so well?



    I love the whole mini though. Both title tracks are amazing and the bsides are great too. IVE really never disappoints me with their music :holding-back-tears: I'm also happy that some songs have rock instrumentals :love:


    TKO is a huge stand out for me, but I like all bsides. At first I was surprised that You Wanna Cry sampled I Wanna Dance With Somebody and the original song still kind of plays in my head when I listen to it, but it grew on me and I like the lyrics.


    Thank U is a lovely song and I absolutely love the lyrics. So many songs from this album have a great message and lyrics. <3


    Seeing the title "FLU" felt a bit weird at first, especially considering the time of the release haha. But The song is nice and the lyrics are fun.


    Overall, I love it that the mini gave us more new and fresh sound that IVE hasn't done before, yet it's just as good as their previous albums. I honestly have a hard time telling which of their albums is my overall favourite, all of them have songs that I truly love and replay.

  • if i had to give it a ratings it would be a 6/10


    Rebel Heart & Attitude

    i couldn't enjoy the songs with the MV (sorry but i just can't take seriously Wonyoung in this girl crush/rebel concept, just cuz visually she doesn't fit in and her act neither, she's more fitted for Love dive/I AM type of concept)

    But listening to the song alone made me really like it

    but both songs would be a 6/10 for me cuz i don't know why the producers of both songs thought it would be a great idea to put a random section in the song for absolutely nothing, the song would be much much better if they just get rid off this section.


    Flu

    it's probably my favorite bsides of the song it's cute, light, and makes you feel happy.

    I have nothing more to say


    You Wanna cry

    the song is good but i just couldn't enjoy it, the sample of "I wanna dance with somebody" is just too strong, they couldn't find a way to me to take the sample and reapproriate to them so everytime the chorus was coming i was more busy singing the chorus of Whitney Houston song than "You wanna cry"


    Thank you

    No comment, it's just the boring ballad that every group needs to put in their album


    TKO

    good i enjoy listening to the song


    my ranking would be :


    Flu> Rebel heart > Attitude > You wanna cry > TKO > Thank you



    Overall this album in my opinion is good but still weak

    no tracks are really bad, they are all good but to be honest none of them really stand out as being a song that would make people comeback listening to this song if you're not a hard fan of IVE or even remember any of the bside in this album in 1 or 2 month.


    All the bsides in this album play it pretty safe, and i know that it's Ive recipe to be a "safe" group to be able to please the most of people.

    But i disagree they have shown in the past to be able to make great and interesting bsides like royal or blue blood but this album bsides just doesn't reflect any of this, which is sad
