YG's tactic is basically to starve fans and then throw random crumbs at them and it works so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

im happy for my girls, but at the same time i'm angry that YG now has an excuse to only give them mini albums with 2NE1-rejects in the future because they also sell well.

also i still don't like the album.

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

I didn't have much hope for YG to treat them better anyway
I just hope they get to go on some variety and have fun on stage (that DDDD debut stage lacked energy but Forever young made me a bit hopeful)

IA.

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

awww, I'm so happy telling the truth helped put a smile on your face
Even a laugh, I feel accomplished 😘

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

oh I'm sure it will sell, a huge amount too
YG is gonna get that cash and will keep treating the girls like shit

It doesn't change the fact that starvation helps, it helped other groups before them and is a tactics that as been used time and time again in the music industry
You don't have to be so pressed and defensive all the time but I mean, if it makes you feel liek you're 'the revolution' go off
Express youself

And lol, where did I say it was just blinks being starved XD
The projection is real

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

again where's the blink?
does it say blink? is blink written in security ink? where is it?

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

I don't know if you realize that you're not making any sense at all, and just sound bitter and pressed but bygones
I hope you're having a good week end, enjoy the sun, eat some ice cream and have fun

i'm really curious about their physical sales. i wonder if they can beat twice. digitally i do think they're stronger but at the same time i wonder how they'd do if they came back at a more frequent pace like twice. they remind me of snsd v 2ne1

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

It really is the same dynamic
Their japanese ep sold 75,000+ in Japan and 16,000+ in china iirc

I guess those annoying YouTube ads helped. Legit had their MV start playing while I was watching a ... cooking tutorial

[scionofawhisper.livejournal.com]

It amazes me how shitty YG has been over the past few years to his artists and his fans, and yet he is still successful... people just throw their money at that company. lmao. I used to feel bad for their fans, now I'm just like.. but you're still supporting all his shit, so eat it. lmao

[dior-chic.livejournal.com]

Yea, if they feel comfortable supporting YG and his/his company’s shit, that’s on them. I mean I’m going to still judge lol but yea it just reminds me I don’t really believe in financially supporting these companies. I wish I could just donate to these idols personal Patreons lmaoooo but yea that’s not the reality.

[ashdevilrun23.livejournal.com]

the amount of views is crazy
I guess starving fans does work 🤔

[rainstormraider.livejournal.com]

Sell a million off a blank disc. YGE out there living upto that Drake hype.

The MV is gorgeous. I was not a fan of Lalisa until this aesthetic and girl has really levelled up.

Damn some of these comments
Happy for the girls but I wish YG would ROT
