Why is Txt the only 4th gen boy group whose music is critically acclaimed?

  • They were the only Korean artist in the top 50 Rolling Stone’s best albums of 2021, I know I love you was the best Kpop song of 2021 voted by Billboard, the only 4th gen boy group nominated for KMA. Not talking about performances or anything else, why is Txt the only 4th gen boy group to have music be acclaimed by critics, compared to groups like Stray Kidz, Ateez, The Boyz, Treasure…?

    Approved the thread.
  • Their discography has some good songs, non fans liked their title tracks run away, loser lover, lovesong etc

  • Just cause you choose to ignore the praise others receive doesn't mean they're the only ones.

  • Because a lot of good nugu songs are not even reviewed by critics, y'all are missing out on all the gems by just searching for "critically acclaimed" stuff

  • Skz has some of that too. I imagine the other groups as well but people wouldn’t know because they only pay attention to the groups they stan i think

    And there are more but I’m too lazy to compile them on mobile :joy: :) get out of your bubble op.

  • why is it in anon? Stray Kids also is critically acclaimed by their music, on top of that also by their self producing skills and performance. Back Door was one of TIME Magazine's top 10 songs in 2020 etc a lot more. Ateez also here and there in some critics picks by billboard staffs etc. I personally agree with TXT having great music though I am not a fan, but most of these lists & nominations are majorly subjective as well as also influenced by company connections and such that, also popularity and exposure plays a lot role here.

  • lol it takes one google search to know that you're talking out of your ass. Embarrassing

  • Stray Kids is legit the third K-POP act, along with Psy and SNSD to be on the Top 10 Song of TIME Magazine.


    Speak nicely.

    And is Time a music critic site? All the ones I list for Txt are sites focused on music. And I see Txt has many non fans liking their music, even gg stans, but I never see gg stans doing the same for Stray Kidz…

  • even gg stans

    ah yes reputed music critics "gg stans", now they're definitely more credible than Time


    70% the most dedicated stays I know are gg stans or at least strongly prefer ggs above bgs that aren't skz, the difference is that stays haven't made that a personality trait like moas

  • Hybe stans really let all those mediplay about TXT's music got in their head lol

    It's a news magazine and site that also includes a music section. Your criteria is just changing because you're being proven wrong. You should try paying attention to other groups before making all these bold claims. It's embarrassing.

    the mental gymnastics :eyes: you're not putting up a good argument in here.

    I mean you can't even spell Stray Kids name properly, it's evident you know little to anything about the group. We call this tunnel vision.

    Time magazine comprises almost every topic and it includes entertainment industry, Rolling stone is also magazine, Billboard is also magazine, none of these are some music critic website, but magazines that write about music & entertainment

  • Unbiased they are the only ones who don’t go heavy on experiment music or noise. Koreans hate noise music.
