DIRTY WORK and PINK VENOM mashup (aespa&blackpink)

She debuted solo with Birthday and I did not know how well it was received. “Dumb Dumb” was a viral TikTok bop song and she was praised, cared by people incl. YG family fandoms. Xo Xo performed a bit less well than Dumb Dumb but it was okay. Then Fast Forward came, no one cared. Infamously, her Twitter reply “yay, they love me” was a bad decision and unprofessional behaviour. Did people ignore about her music because of that? I can tell she is talented but she lacks some management and behavioural skills? submitted by /u/leonardreignn [link] [comments]

I just saw D4VD on killing voice and to what i remember he performed on a mcountdown too for his cb and collaborated with hyunjin from SKZ. Katseye's gnarly promotion really sold the song and just their whole cb in general and they wouldn't have had that opportunity in the west We already know other none kpop groups have performed on music shows like XG, dearalice etc. I dont know how d4vd went about getting on mcontdown but honestly I dont think it's a bad idea submitted by /u/Dependent_Row_4280 [link] [comments]

As a title says, let's make a supergroup, which will be made only from 2nd gen idols. Male and female one, separate. Let's do some restriction: *7 members max *Only two members max from same group (for example you are allow use only two members from SNSD, two members from BIGBANG, etc.) What would be your dreamy supergroups from 2nd gen? submitted by /u/Eastern_Return_1710 [link] [comments]

I’ve seen a lot of albums get criticized for not being cohesive but I personally don’t really care about cohesiveness. Sometimes it’s nice but not being cohesive doesn’t hinder my enjoyment of the album if I like most of the songs. I usually listen to playlists instead of just the albums so that plays a factor for me. I’m interested in hearing what others think about this. submitted by /u/Winter-Net-2669 [link] [comments]

Just to clarify: I know that charts don’t really matter, I’m simply pointing out a trend I’ve noticed. I know that album sales are also a measure of success but they tend to increase regardless of a group’s success. Streams-wise, it seems like a number of 4th gen groups have already peaked which is unsurprising considering that many of them have been active for 4+ years at this point and had explosive debut eras. But strangely enough, 5th gen groups haven’t really filled the gap. It seems to be a more general trend of weak international performance, rather than 4th gen groups losing relevancy. Not a single 5th gen girl group has debuted with more than 450k streams on their most recent release apart from BabyMonster. For reference, Stereotype by STAYC outstreamed ILLIT, MEOVV and Hearts2Hearts when comparing first day streams of their latest comebacks. I don’t keep up with 5th gen boy groups but they seem to be in the same boat with 100k-500k per release, not a big gap surprisingly and RIIZE is doing better than their female peers apart from BaeMon. Groups that used to chart on Spotify global semi-consistently or at least had good performance now often debut with less than 800k streams or in several recent cases, less than 500k. IVE is the craziest to me. ELEVEN, LOVE DIVE, AFTER LIKE and I AM was an insane title track run both sonically and success-wise. Kitsch and Baddie performed quite well but Attitude wasn’t nearly as strong. I also can’t believe that Know About Me by NMIXX didn’t become much more popular internationally considering that some of their more experimental releases did better. It’s worse considering how much K-Pop companies appeal to the West now. Friday releases, multiple versions for Billboard, American festivals, SNL performances, fluent English-speaking members yet the decline continues. I can’t tell if this is necessarily reflective of K-Pop becoming less popular globally. From what I’ve seen, a group releases one song that doesn’t quite resonate with the international audience and they don’t recover. On the other hand, there may be less genuine interest now. I did see a claim that K-Pop reached peak global interest in 2023 but I can’t find a source or article that goes with it. I also don’t know much about how K-Pop groups are selling in their global tours so feel free to add any statistics on that. AFAIK, no group is selling that poorly. I also suspect that this might be coming from a decline in popularity in Southeast Asia? The region is typically K-Pop’s biggest stronghold so maybe the decline stems from there but I’m not sure. BTS, BP, Aespa, SKZ and LSFM seem to be the last ones standing. submitted by /u/DowntownFee1 [link] [comments]

Do you have a song that at first didn't vibe with you at all, but after watching the MV It kind of changed perspective and now you like it also when just listening to it? For me it's Work by ATEEZ, musically speaking it's not my genre at all and also the lyrics (English parts) sounded a bit "meh" to me, but then I watched the MV and It was so non sense and funny that now the song became one of my "boost my mood" favs. submitted by /u/vibe2code [link] [comments]
