I completely agree with you on everything. The song isn't that much of a bop, but the girls' confidence really pulled me in. None of the awkwardness I was kind of expecting was there.
ughhh they pulled it off so well i don't know how to feel given the whole situation with b.a.p
And yeah 2014 is definitely a bad year for girl groups especially, which actually isn't all that surprising because girl groups get way more flak in general and 2014 has been a shitty year for all (except for EXID - quEENS)
Female BAP, I think YG's wig was snatched and now I'm curious what'll happen.
I can already see the Got7/BAP ships that are going to arise from this lol. This was pretty cool though although none of the members interest me in particular I hope they can make an image for themselves. Song's bad but is a typical debut song.
I doubt it. If the song was good then yes they have been able to come for YGG but the damn song is so unforgettable coupled with TS' bullshit they aint going nowhere.
It sucks that their debut is in the middle of the BAP-TS lawsuit. Can companies stop throwing around GG debuts/comebacks as distractions?
The song is okay but I'm always here for female rappers with deeper voices... I'm tired of the fast-talking/aegyo rapping that seems standard in kpop. Also dem splits were on point.
Definitely reminded me of a B.A.P vibe, though the debut left less of a strong impression, and more of a feeling that they were made as vague counterparts to an existing group (which is now suing the company). The song wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything memorable for me. Their dancing seems decent though. They debuted at a rocky time, but maybe they'll have what it takes to survive and get stronger?
For me, the styling of this feels slightly too on the nose? Like a very well coordinated high school talent show dance group? Not that they aren't talented or the styling is bad but it's a bit too perfect? IDK
The song was catchy enough but not exactly 'wow' worthy. It's good enough but not great IMO
I can't be the only one that actually enjoyed the mv? I mean, the song could be better, but the choreo looks good and they pull off the concept despite their first teaser.
pretty underwhelming for a debut. the rap is okay but the vocals are meh. the song sounds really mismatched to me? idk to me, these sort of concepts don't generally work for girl groups :/
ita this is my problem with it. like they went for the powerful concept but didnt go all the way w vocals bc they were too concerned w trying to stay soft and safe and feminine and the result is just bad
I mean...how much of BAPs and Secret's paycheck go into the cgi lightening effect alone?
I actually like the song and the group seems cool even tho they are a cover of BAPs entire essence. They'll probably be rolling around in Secret's discography next.
Ignoring the terrible timing in debuting this girl group this was disappointing.
The song was way too basic to make a good impression. I was expecting an impact like Warrior or Secret's fiercer songs. The song didn't really match the choreo...it just wasn't there
Some of the dance routine was okay but there was a lot of posing involved. I see that Hana move from I'm in Love though.
I'm literally only here for that deep voiced rapper.
What was it that TS media played? "Hip-hop girl group that will surpass 2NE1"
idk if it's just me but the whole concept/song/mv just feels a bit dated, imo. like it could've blended in with any of the 2008-2010 releases.
i do love girl rappers and i appreciate what ts is trying to do with the high/low voice combo (following the formula of what boy hiphop styled groups usually do) but rap-wise it's a bit lackluster. from what i could glean from this song alone, they don't seem to be capable of too much technically, though maybe if i heard some mixtapes or something it would give me a better sense of their skills. i wouldn't be surprised if ts didn't train them in writing their own lyrics either (lord knows zelo didn't get to).
I know off-hand that New Sun had a writing credit for Secret's "Look At Me" off their latest album. And New Sun and D.ana had their own self-written rap that they posted on Youtube pre-debut but I haven't actually listened to it so I don't know what it's like.
Tbh I was just bitter that they gave New Sun a chance at writing for Secret's album and that there weren't any Hana credits because Hana hasn't had a writing credit since the YooHoo album and that is a waste
Song is BLAH but dancing is tough. Sadly, they came at poor timing so no one will give them the time of day but the deep voice rapper got me interested.
I enjoyed the song actually. I like their approach though.I liked the choreography a lot. I like the rapper with the deeper tone. It did remind me of B.A.P.'s debut but more gentle than right in your face. Seriously, what other girl group is going in like this? I like it a lot.
They have the potential imo... it's just that the song really sucks and the concept screams b.a.p, which eventually willl remind everyone about the lawsuit. Awful tactic, ts ... I think the girl with the long red hair's voice is nice. The rest of the vocals/rappers didn't stand out for me.
I'm so irrationally annoyed. Not at the girls of course, but....I kept singing Warrior during this. And then the two girls with the "not so aegyo-ish" voices made me think of Yongguk and my eye twitched. Grrrr...lol. I don't like the song....since, you know it's been done already.
They have potential, but I'm not interested and not gonna act like even if TS wasn't about bullshit right now, that I would be.
