For the ppl that are saying that she only got into the group due to nepotism, idt that's true because according to her, her family strongly opposed it and she had to be a trainee and get into Columbia university at the same time, so while nepotism probably paid a part, she still worked really hard. https://preview.redd.it/2e9sp9qo1v6f1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=ec4bec673aa425852e17d2cfcc2b965620c1262e Tarzzan - UGHHHHHHH, he pmo so much. Like he didn't even debut and is already doing cultural appropriation. I feel like he's trying rlly hard to act cool and idk how to explain it but is trying to have the "YG" aura that rest of the group and YG artists have naturally but idk it feels so forced. https://preview.redd.it/cr3bzxeb2v6f1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=ae569dc3cbf17885464364def4158763026e570e Bailey - She CLEARLY worked hard to get to where she is and I respect that. Ion rlly have anything else to say abt her tho, i'm curious if she made some of the choreo for the group debut. https://preview.redd.it/ldvlhk6n2v6f1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=74aaeffd61393708a1ba6e643be32aea019629d5 Woochan - Tbh idrk anything abt him before joining this project but he feels the most genuinely passionate abt music in this group to me. I've heard he was in trainee A (not sure what that is mb) but ion get how he went from performing at the olympics to being in TBL, a company that's not known for their management. https://preview.redd.it/klrhtn403v6f1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=eb114027dc48942f3cfd12162c332a0964032382 Youngseo - I love the way she shut down the rumours abt getting poached by TBL, and if i'm not wrong she basically confirmed she left ILLIT because she didn't like their concept . Yeah, idk what to say abt her either apart from the fact that she's clearly dedicated. https://preview.redd.it/614kht093v6f1.png?width=2880&format=png&auto=webp&s=e2e9ca92485612548132d939c3cd4d18be9275c1 The group as a whole. I'm happy with the choices of ppl in this group apart from Tarzzan (for obvious reasons) but seeing the documentary it feels more like a temp group and that the members don't really get along that well (more like coworkers) which is completely fine because at the end of the day it's a job not a family. I think they'll focus on being models/influencers or solo projects and release group music once every 1-2 years. Also did they entirely write the song themselves or just parts (mentioned that they wrote lyrics in the video)? Ion think that FAMOUS is going to go well with any of them considering it's clearly one of those i'm rich ur not kind of vibes. These ppl other than Annie and maybe Bailey (she prob earned a good amount of money from making choreo) have a shit ton of trainee debut. I saw this tt that predicted the lyrics for Famous and it went like "WE RICH BUT WE AIN'T EVEN FAMOUS" and I keep on thinking abt it. What I think the positions are: Annie - Lead vocalist, Leader, FOTG (she was in the middle in all the clips) Tarzzan - Lead dancer, Lead rapper Bailey - Main dancer, Lead rapper Woochan - Main rapper, Lead dancer Youngseo - Maknae, Main vocalist, Visual Predicted controversies: Tarzzan: - N word scandal - Following a problematic person (already happened) - Cultural appropriation (already happened) Annie: - Nepotism Youngseo: - Throwing shade towards Illit / Illit throwing shade towards her Idt i'll be tuning in on this group but it seems cool. submitted by /u/AvocadoFun3905 [link] [comments]
