Have AESPA got that Blackpink aura 65

Yes - closest I've seen (11) 17%

I respectfully disagree (54) 83%
I think i kinda agree that they look expensive and that next level is swaggy and flowy. But imo, it’s just that both these girls execute it differently. So i don’t see it. This is kinda like 2ne1 executed “hip” differently than bp and same with aespa.
Tldr; i voted for no lol.
They give off a Kwangya pop kinda vibe
Feels like maybe the song have more in common with some of the boygroup stuff?
I thought that when I heard Black Mamba, but with Next Level I don’t think they’re anything like Blackpink. They’re their own group with their own style and concept and I like it.
Yes the closest I've seen on akp-forum domination
The last thing on my mind while listening to next level was blackpink lmao
no, i can't see BP releasing something like Next level

Not Black Mamba or Forever either.
It's like certain people convinced themselves that Aespa are copying Blackpink and want it to be true so badly to feel invalidated that they started imagining things.
Aespa is coming into their own sound, which to me reminds me nothing of BP. Teddy would never produce anything like Next Level, and with SMs love for experimentation, I think we're only going to drift farther from this narrative.
As opposed to the song Next Level I was thinking more of the look/ aura swaggy possibilities of AESPA
no, i can't see BP releasing something like Next level
Agreed. Aside from the music, the AI and science fiction stuff is just creating a different aesthetic. That kind of stuff wouldn't work for BP. And now when I think of Aespa, I actually think of the movie Avatar, whether that was intentional or not. Hehe. So I just don't get the claims of similarities. Maybe when it comes to some of their CF deals. But BP just overshadows any group when it comes to luxury branding.
Songwise, I think the original parts in Next Level is something that Blackpink might do. But that's it. Other than that, it's definitely unique to aespa.
blackpink has a chic, cold, "we are better than you", "all the boys want us" vibe along with sexy fierceness ofc
aespa is expensive and fierce but i dont find the chic "all the boys want us" vibe
they are closer to gidle or 2ne1 imo
also aespa has not had nearly as much time as bp to cement an identity
i can only recognise karina among them someone help uwu
It's interesting that the part at 2:08 reminds you of JYP songs because that part reminds me of SES instead.
I read on asianjunkie it was sampled. I think the original song also titled next level. So it's not exactly sm fault
i can only recognise karina among them someone help uwu
In Next Level:
Giselle and Karina both have similar hair for Next Level and they're both rappers so it can be a bit tough, but generally Giselle looks a bit shorter than Karina and has a rounder face shape.
It's a bit easier to learn their faces in Black Mamba cause they're in a distinctive place.
Imo Next level is closer to Itzy than Blackpink.

Nothing like itzy either, I would say fX if I had to compare
Not really. Black mamba was bit more like them but not next level.
In Next Level:
- Ningning- Red hair
- Winter - blonde on the bottom
- Giselle - black hair with red highlights in some scenes

- Ningning - computer
- Winter - bathroom
- Giselle - with the people in the pink balaclavas
learning based on the place/ hair color doesnt help cuz that keeps changing
i usually can recognise based on face/eyes but i have a problem with that in general kek
karina has a really shrp face compared to the other girls so shes easy
are their any distinctive facial features like moles or something?
like with bp for me it was jennie --> sharp eyes rose --> thin face lisa ---> bangs and jisoo was the one i found prettiest so it was ez
i still cant tell the difference between eunha and yerin save me kek
i can tell the difference between nining and winter, but not giselle and ning ning and giselle and winter im confused
Not to me personally but I can understand because both have a 'western-ish' feel to them. Next Level was originally a track for a Fast n Furious movies afterall
BPink goes more harder and swaggier, Aespa has a more toned down chill vibe
Yeah, outside of SM singing more "open", I think JYPE might have more songs with "pocket drumming (or beats)" that's more associated with R&B sub-genres that borrow from Jazz like "Neo-Soul", Funk, and Go-Go. It also creates a subconscious association in my mind:
I did some more listening. You're probably referencing SES - Be Natural.
