Why it is easy for western Artist as compared to Kpop artist to becime a main pop act?

I think that the main reasons behind the popularity of K-pop are- Korean government pushing the Hallyu wave. Talent Aesthetically pleasing visuals. However, people don't seem to acknowledge the 4 reason. It varies from region to region. 4th reason behind the popularity of K-pop in Northeast Asia- Cultural Proximity. 4the reason behind the popularity of K-pop in Southeast Asia- They look up to the Northeast Asians. 4th reason behind the popularity of K-pop in the rest of the world- K-pop idols intend to fulfill the void of good-looking young men in these countries. submitted by /u/New-Mix-5245 [link] [comments]

I've been a decade-long kpop fan. And I've noticed, new Kpop fans or fans that are unfamiliar with Kpop complaining that their idols during formation in the choreography is at the back frequently. But for as long as I could remember, watching SNSD and kpop survival shows, isn't it still the center even if the idol is in the back? (It's an infamous Kpop formation where there's 2 people in the center, one in the front and back. And if you're perspective is in the middle, the idol in the back is 'covered' by the idol in the front.) I think new Kpop fans or unfamiliar fans complain and accuse the company of 'hiding' or 'neglecting' the member when it's not. I remember, YoonA being center in SNSD, and in older Kpop, being center means not straying far from the center as much as possible and I understood it as such, am I wrong? If some older kpop fans can confirm this, I'd appreciate this lol. So technically speaking, even if their idol is at the back (still in the middle) and seems covered by the member in front, it's still a favorable thing because they're still in the center. I think it's mostly misunderstood because their perspective online is through the camera's lenses. Of course, in one fixed point, it looks unfavorable to be in the middle-back but in real life or in a performance if you're part of the crowd, that member is visible in different perspectives (obviously). And I think that's what most new Kpop fans or unfamiliar fans don't realize and misunderstood. (Am I making sense? English isn't my first language, sorry.) submitted by /u/NoInfluence6902 [link] [comments]

2022 was Olivia Rodrigo's yearly, it was her first song Driver's license that made her an overnight pop sensation followed by bangers she dropped bangers like Deja vu, Driver's license, Happier etc....and suddenly she was every where....after her first album dropped she immediately sold large Arenas and is now headlining festival across the world is is considered an established artist as of now....similarly last year was Sabrina's year it I know it took Sabrina several year to be tgis popular and she had an amazing discography prior to Espresso...but it just took one banger for Sabriba to a overnight pop sensation...now Sabrina is a household name...her short and sweet tour is the talk of the town...and she Headlined lolla this year and will headline cochella next year..even her current album is not performing well despite recieving mixed reviews.I know she has a lot of bangers like plz,plz,plz ,Taste,Bed chem....but what I wanted to tell is it took only one song for them to become a mainstream act Drivers License in case of Olivia and Esprosso in case of Sabrina...Similarly Rosé had released a banger last year Apt. it was everywhere least year...Rosé bagged SOTY in this year's VMA ...indeed the song is popular..and Rosé popularity increased so much after the song... but it did not help much to established Rosé as the main pop girl...her album performed decently...had some amazibg song like Drinks or Coffee, Gameboy....but it did not receive the same reaction from public that OR received for Sour or SC received for Short n Sweet..I am not comparing I just wanted to know what actually happended beacuse I think she has the same rescources as OR, SC or even Chappel Roan to be a main pop gir,now that she is under Atlantic label...infact I think she has more than them as establiahed solid fanbase blink....then what went wrong??? Personally I think her tean fumbled hard...tgey failed to capitalize on Rosé success after Apt. After Jennie's and Lisa's album dropped they performed as various events....Jennie even held her own mini tour....but Rosé team did not do much to push her and establish her as a main pop act.... submitted by /u/Due_Collection_3363 [link] [comments]

Maybe this is more of a thing I should talk to them abt lol but it’s been BUGGING me. My friend loves Cortis and their songs like fashion and go, me, I’m more meh. I like the rap that’s in kpop songs but I’ve always been more of a vocal fan. For some party songs, I like to put on some fun hip-hop and rap (like fe!n lol) for that hype, but it’s not in my general wheelhouse of songs. So I tried Cortis and was personally unimpressed and when my friend asked my opinion they were flabbergasted. I was more surprised as to why they suddenly liked that style of music?? Idk maybe it’s just me but it confuses me why they suddenly like the genre after a kpop group does it? Their style could’ve changed but- still I’m probably overreacting but it just confuses the hell out of me. submitted by /u/BerriesPi [link] [comments]

Rosé is a talented singer but I think her current vocal technique holds her musical direction back and isn’t ideal for the emotional, slower songs she makes. When listening to her ballads, I felt like her lack of belting made the songs a bit lacklustre as there wasn’t really a climax. Number One Girl and On My Mind suffered the most because of this in my opinion, it would’ve been great if those songs ended with a really strong vocal part. On the other hand, some songs on her album were blatantly out of her range and the amount of straining turned me off -“stay a little longer” and “not the same” come to mind. Obviously not all ballads need crazy high notes but I think Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo is a good example of a song that is elevated by the singer’s great capabilities. She could do so much more with her music if she had a wider vocal range and dropped some of her stylistic choices. There are multiple times I think “an open, clear high note or run would really fit this part” when listening to her music. I think it could also be a matter of changing her musical direction. Gracie Abrams is often clowned for being a weak vocalist but she’s really good at picking songs that fit her limited vocal range. I can absolutely picture Rosé singing ‘I Love You I’m Sorry’ and it fits her vibe perfectly. She could keep her image as the heartbroken singer-songwriter but focus more on her lyricism and make upbeat easier pop songs. I do appreciate her authenticity though, after the success of APT I think many expected her to go down the pop/pop-rock route and put out an album similar to GUTS but she stayed true to her preference. Rosé clearly prefers ballads but I still think her voice and energy are best suited for upbeat songs. It’s nearly been a year since Rosie came out and I’ve grown to enjoy the album much more than I did when it first came out. I still prefer her poppier side with APT and “drinks or coffee” being my favourites but I don’t think her slower songs were as boring as many suggested when it first released. I would love to see her show off some vocal acrobatics on her future projects. And in case someone brings it up: I do have a previous post about the success of Rosie and I just wanna clarify that I talk about BP because I stan them and I generally just like analysing chart performance as you can tell by my post history. I’m not a BP/Rosie anti and I don’t intend to bring any hate to submitted by /u/DowntownFee1 [link] [comments]

Like, now that I remember early BP discography was not only more diverse but have more artistry and way better lyrics, but then DDD, which chorus consist of making PIU PIU gun sounds, smashed records. If not for the big check after wards that would be demoralizing, kinda. After that, he probably said why bother and just repeated the formula. It's no his fault people liked more DDD than PWF. At the end of the day he is just a business man giving the people what they wanted. Lazy? Yes. But effective? For sure. I love DDD tho, is so fun~ submitted by /u/taeyang31 [link] [comments]
