I’ll be adding Yuri in first place (for now) and Chowon behind Ella and Yuri but she may not stay. There’s not as much content of her vocals + she’s not quite as strong as the others but still very talented
EDIT: I won’t be adding Yuri Izone isnt active so I’ll list her in her own category

link proof but keep it to like 2 videos please, so the thread doesn’t get clogged. or use spoilers.
Well damn. I stan tf out of this girl already. I knew they were really good rappers but go off
I’ve been a fan of hers since she was in cherry bullet, but now I’m obsessed. You should check out this MV
Or their mini album which is linked in the OP
Yes they do their own writing.

They’re pretty impressive. Do they all write or just some of them? How many members are rappers total?
The 4th gens rap game is strong but MCND does seem to be in the higher ranks
imma need to check out Pixy
Before I took my break from social media I was invested in them but it’s really been cemented for me, now.
Their main vocalist is one of the best of 4th gen as well.
For the first time ever, this generation of kpop has more girl groups with a top rap line than boy groups.
The top 3 rap lines of 4th gen so far (in no particular order for various reasons. Hard to quantify atp)
(G)i-dle
2/3 are girl groups. 5 women. 4th gen is looking bright.
Explanation for Pixy since they have the least easy to find info as nugus and rookies. I’m sure you can find info on SKZ and (G)i-dle’s rap lines more easily
Pixy have a 4 member rap line, they can all write (learning to produce music currently), and they were all trained to rap and write by a black woman. Some of you may recognize the name of their trainer, kpop legend Michelle Lee.
This video contains the rappers performing verses they wrote themselves
This video contains one of the rappers doing a full english rap verse
This mini album is further proof
There’s lots of other notable rap lines in 4th gen for both boy groups and girl groups but these are the top 3*. Girl groups are especially killing the rap game in 4th gen.
*Can write their own verses. Their own individual rap style. Excels in technical aspects across the board. (Have multiple dynamic flows per verse, clear diction, perfect timing, multisyllabic and internal rhymes, wordplay, etc.)
facts = bashing for some
That’s why whenever I correct my co-fans about “being on the same level as bts” i’m seen as a fake fan or secret anti
like it’s not shade to them at all but it’s disrespectful to pretend bts aren’t as high as they are.... or on the other side, it’s disrespectful to pretend someone is on bts’s level who isn’t. it’s just major coattail riding
hey charlie
https://youtube.com/c/HeyCharlie
he literally discussed multiple times how bts is beyond kpop (he wasn’t shading other groups, he made sure to be clear) and bts are his favorite. he fanboys hard for them
Display MoreI don't think they are based on my observations on multiple digital charts (where ggs show how much interest their music has). Odd eye is their last release, right?

A group that's growing for example is like fromis, slowly reaching melon top 100 and charting higher on FLO after promos ended. But nobody calls them mainstream yet
Kpop groups, even the most unknown, have people praising them, specially by those on the media because they care to follow most of idol groups.
But are they really mentioned everywhere on TV ? What kind of shows? I haven't seen it yet, maybe fans didn't make enough threads about it
a lot of relevant groups don’t have good charting lol
it’s pretty easy to find evidence of dreamcatcher rise in the past year across all metrics but also including their relevance in korean media. even here... there’s threads about it. idk how you’ve missed it tbh
(and ps if you’re talking about fromis9, they’re WAY smaller than dreamcatcher... /gen)
read my reply again because you’re confused
dreamcatcher have been becoming more relevant in korea and are becoming more mainstream. just because something has a niche audience, doesn’t mean it can’t grow to be relevant lol dc are definitely relevant in SK
Well best of luck to them. Cheering for them, especially Ella. She's had it rough for sure.
absolutely! i hope the other members of cherry bullet don’t have too much trouble from their company
yes, we’re obviously in a new generation. some 3rd gen groups still thriving doesn’t mean it’s not 4th gen lol
Agreed given the mv and the stage performances, their company is certainly willing to spend.. but it's still a business.. they will have to turn a profit within a couple of years. I think they sold less than 1K albums in their recent cb.. it's a tough start.
They’ve already sold over 1k copies of their latest album, and they’re not doing too bad in streams.
So long as they continue with frequent promotions like they have been (debut and comeback within 3 months, promoting 2 songs as singles off their mini album, doing covers constantly, etc.), i think they’ll get enough exposure/promo to start seeing a good return on their investments
i really think their biggest obstacle is just coming from an unknown company in kpop so no one knows them yet. give them the time to promote and let word spread about them, and they’ll take off! I would put money on them being exponentially more successful this time next year, if they continue like they have been
i didn't say they are bad
i said that for me their only problem is their song, it just mean that it's not my type
and i doubt that with their actual sound they can rise to the top of the 4th gen considering that even dreamcatcher who seems the closest to them in term of sound etc... couldn't make a name for themselves among the top GG of 3rd gen
but good luck to them
Dreamcatcher are literally always mentioned among the top 10 3rd gen gg, ever since their scream era and especially once boca era came about. do you really know what are you talking about? lol
and on top of their success, they’ve also been becoming more mainstream in KOREA with their “unpopular” sound. they’re mentioned on tv all the time, they have their own reality show now, being mentioned publicly by mentors for how impressive they are, etc.
and hip hop/edm is pretty popular in kpop, as opposed to rock. if dc can do it with rock, a darker concepted group who does the same genre as every other girl crush group can as well lol
