People were complaining about how BP relied too much on Teddy and needed to switch it up and now that he's gone people want him back
I agree though

The chorus at the end turned a bad song into a horrible one. SO many things wrong with it, from the literal minors looking like they played dress up with BP's clothes, to the song itself not having ANY catchy/memorable parts, to nobody exuding real star power unlike YG's first 2 GGs debuts. If this is what they came up with after delaying it to 'improve quality' Another NMIXX situation where the girls are talented but the little charisma and the execution puts off most people, if they keep it up like this then NewJeans don't have to worry about anyone taking their 4th gen crown for the forseeable future.
I suspect some usuals will go "omg it's growing on meeee this is a HIT SOTY" when it starts doing well on charts though

I was wondering this too but apparently charts won't update for them until like 13:00 KST so in like 2 hours

Nobody is checking for Baemon because of a group that disbanded nearly a decade ago. 2nd gen stans wake up and start entering 2023

Black Mamba & Dalla Dalla. Whew I remember it like it was yesterday, you could really tell those girls were gonna rule (and the latter did until it was too late lmao)

I disagree with this, Wonder Girls, Miss A and Twice sound nothing alike and all have distinct concepts from each other. I could even add Itzy to this mix because for 3 years they were extremely successful, they are maybe no longer on their peak but doesn't mean they are not successful group.
Afterall people considered JYP the best company for girl groups.
But he said 'for the moment' meaning now which is true. JYP GGs may have been great in the past but rn they are running out of ideas in the music & concept department and you know I'm right. Let's not even get into YG with whatever that new group was
HYBE on the other hand have LSFM & NewJeans serving interesting concepts and SM have aespa/Red Velvet doing the same (even in spite of LSM depaurtre). You just need to look at how SM/HYBE groups are doing on charts compared to YG (sans BP) and JYP. The former is blowing the latter out of the water rn for the reasons I said above

Unpopular opinion but maybe Teddy should've been apart of this track.
This is making me miss Teddy's production more than ever tbh. He was the secret ingredient to 2NE1/BP success...he knew how to make a track that was catchy AF even if there were some cons to it (dated etc). You can see that even this year with Fast Forward and the whole album
This song sounds like they tried recreating his production but lacks all the stuff that made it good. I feel like if TBL ever have their own GG, it's gonna be alot more interesting than this one at least with their debut.
-
O.O was an obvious attempt at recreating Next Level hype but there are certain parts that are catchy idk
Batter Up is just a Teddy song without any of the things that made his work great
I'd rather be remembered for trying and failing to do something daring than for releasing the 15th, less superior version of the same song. One may be bad but it's at least memorable, the other is purely forgettable
-
tbh they seem to be mimicking similar trajectories, by this time in aespa's career RV only really had OOTN being an underperformance which you could say was their 'Girls'
aespa has the slight edge because they have a much bigger fandom by far
-
How many times y'all gonna make this thread
-
How is it shocking when everybody is checking them out because of BP & they have a huge SEA fanbase, they're probably at the same level of hype, if not, more than NewJeans
The Spotify numbers are probably gonna be great too, the test is longevity and how it will do compared to other 4th Gen comebacks/debuts in the long run. I feel like they will do great in SEA but the rest of the world is a toss up
-
Last time I check they had same amount of streams on Melon. Digital index is a weird and has always been, plus you can't track it if the song isn't in top100. I'll never trust that metric over actual streams.
And the last person whose opinion I'd consider when it comes to TwicexBP is a loser like yourself.
Streams that can easily be manipulated by fandoms...okay
Literally tried to be objective and you're still mad whatkfdhgfdhe

The real question you guys should be asking is that this debut took so long? Like this is the song they actually took so long to prepare for
This
We really waited nearly a year for this lazy female Treasure'd mess, at least with BP the long wait was worth it and their debut was actually memorable
They should've just snatched up KOL or XG or something
-
It was biggest but not "by far"
Dalla Dalla is at around 900m digital points last time I checked while other songs like KTL and Fancy are only around like 400m-500m so yeah it is "by far"
That entire year idol groups were underperforming besides that and BTS, it wasn't until Psycho at the end of the year that things turned around
I'd say overall it's a toss-up, sort of the transition period where BP started gaining crazy popularity and Twice were nearing the end of their huge reign
-
It's like a Teddy song without any of the stuff that made Teddy's stuff good. Like a female Treasure tbh. Their ages especially prevent them from really pulling off this savage/badass conept unlike BP/2NE1, something brigther or more teen crush leaning would've suited them alot better.
I liked the rap, YG never fails with that, but that's it really. Kinda giving BlackPink dupe, again without any of the stuff that made them interesting. This will probably smash because everyone's seated for BP successors but if YG wants them to compete with the likes of NewJeans in the long run they've got to up their game.

It's interesting cause Karina also leads massively with fancam views as well, I think she's just generally really popular with non-stans hence the bigger following
That crown could've gone to Winter during BM-Savage but she's kinda doesn't really have a personality or presence as engaging as Karina's which was why I suspect the latter eventually surpassed her after Girls
