Itzy has the power to surpass Blackpink

Quote from Pickled Mint & Orange Bear (635)

Respectfully, no.

their sound isn’t western friendly AT ALL

MITM and Loco are two songs that weren’t liked a lot, Wannabe’s their only song international audience loved. Dalla Dalla does not count it was a hit in Korea not internationally.

If they do songs like Swipe? Maybe. But even then part of why BP are so popular is that they don’t SEEM like a Kpop group. Itzy do. BP look like western celebs rather than a Kpop gg. BP is 3/4 english speakers. Itzy is much MUCH softer than BP concept wise.

Compared to other current GG's that aren't BP, they are the closest to "western friendly. Their big numbers on international streams this year for mediocre songs, compared to acts that did do better in Korea, prove that.

Again, not saying they will surpass BP. No currently existing GG will, especially internationally. Not for a long time. But Itzy, more than any other group, have the power to be the second best

The reason why itzy has more Spotify numbers is literally because they debuted first lol aespa ive catching up quickly

Itzy do not have the vocal capabilities or rap talent of aespa to pull off an aespa song. With DCT all 4 aespa girlies giving powerful vocals you all should stop setting itzy up.

Those powerful vocals we never get to hear live. And even on record they end up going from singing to screeching a little too often for me.

LMAO. They can't even surpass StayC in Korea. How do they surpass Blackpink?

Let alone Aespa, Twice, Red Velvet, Ive, OMG?

When JYP's new GG debuts, Itzy will get left in the dust just like Fx when Red Velvet debuted.

I'll bet my left nipple on it.
