With how young they are and how good they are, one can only imagine how much better they’ll be a few years down the line and it’s a journey I’m willing to follow.
Nice reaction man, was looking forward to this one. There is a music video if you want to see them go at it, no subs on the music video but it's a vibe. All the best man.
Cocona was 16 when she did this song whats even more insane. She just recently turned 17 I believe. Maya is 17, and Harvey n Jurin are both 20. A song I highly recommend is *Absinthe by Punchnello.* That song is 100% my pure rage song.
@@NEWBOTANICA you mean when she writes in English? Cause XG has zero credits in any language to date. She just needs a good English writer and then problem solved, right?
@@ashvandal5697 her lyrics, her pronunciation, her choice of rhyming with english words. You don't need writing credits to be a good and or famous rapper... you do however need good diction. Which sadly soyeon does not..
craziest part is how young they are with that kinda skill, cocona is 16, maya and harvey are 18 and jurin is 20. LOVE youre reacting to this. I know you like Kendrick so you might wanna check out bewhY-gottasadae. hes fucking sick in all of his songs but that one has a huge kendrick inspiration

tons and tons of amazing korean rappers, both male and female but you'll mostly hear about the most popular ones like bts. and not to take anything away from them they are super talented no doubt, but there are a lot more who might fit your aesthetic or expectations, it's just hard to get translations or english from them sometimes
@MyGaming Den It just comes down to what folks have been overly requesting and ultimately not really grasping the flavor that the content creator actually like in order for them to venture out to other genres. It's no different than a rock content creator and folks requesting them to react to TWICE. The "swaying" to listen to more ain't gonna happen because of poor requesting.
😂😂😂 honestly tho I love it when people hate cause it stirs up some good music. I imagined if u hated on BTS enough they would comeback hitting harder. Apparently after the love yourself era they forgot their own message. Now we got butter and permission to dance 😂. I just don’t like the whole let’s go with the American trends. They use to be trend setters.. I miss that 😢
Watch their video. It doesn't have subtitles though. The girls ages in order from when this dropped are Cocona 16 (she turned 17 3 weeks ago), Maya 17, Harvey 19, and Jurin 20. Harvey, who was doing that high pitched rap/singing, can actually rap like the others. I think she did it that way in this to show 4 different styles. If you watch the XG tape 1 it's Jurin and Harvey rapping. Harvey comes on 2nd and raps like she normally does, then transitions into some high pitched singing. Still trips me out that Cocona was 16 when this dropped and Maya is 17. If they came over to the states it would be a wrap for the female rappers in the states right now. 💯
I hear ya, I lived in South Korea for three years and it took a minute, but give it time... the talent and dedication is extreme... you'll see, just keep going down this rabbit hole, it's a blast!
@@rue3725 thanks for that. Excuse my ignorance in this scene. Enjoyed it though. I've only ever really listened to nujabes in Japanese hip hop. Which I loved.
@@DrAmber2004 It is. The real rappers often find that the real rapping isn't coming from K pop artists like they shouldn't be rapping. One of the all Japanese gg is really good and her father is still a rapper in Japan. By the way Japanese music is such diverse that even there were great rappers out there many Japanese people don't even know them because it's not mainstream anymore but never died, the R&B hip hop or vocal dance groups were a thing in 90s and early 00s where k pop artists got strongly influenced and they sent their artists in Japan. That's how k pop started.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but to judge people by how they look or dress is really pathetic. Hope you don't encounter that same behavior towards yourself.
XG are a new group and they are doing GREAT. If you decide do a reaction of BTS you will like them too, if so start with the 4 cyphers, then Daechwita and August D (Suga) then Ddaeng ( lyrics) first so you will understand the message .....💜. I purple you. Have fun in your journey.!
I would think Stevie wouldn’t judge people by how they look. His comments about how talented BTS are but his apprehension because they look a certain way to him shows how messed up masculinity can be in America.
@@Marysia77 he is usually open minded but for some reason he has consistently been negative toward BTS and kpop in general. He also didn’t like blackpink so idk why he likes this group. And BTS are one of the best artists ever and it’s sad he can’t see their talent bc he is bothered by their visuals. Funny enough I’ve seen many men actually question themselves bc of how good looking and attractive they are.
@@Tz3952ii funny you bring that up, bc in Japan BTS was named the number one artist in Japan, the second largest music market in the world. Artist not kpop act. So I would say the general public of Japan has spoken. Lastly, BTS is beyond kpop.
1:57 oof 😅 not everyone’s thing I guess. I’ve always been into Asian artists so I guess I’m just used to more “feminine” looking guys. Always interesting to see how people react to different cultures
If youre interested in more K hiphop I would recommend Flowsik ft. Jessi "Wet" Jessi- "Coldblooded" Eung Freestyle CL "Lifted" "Hello Bitches" Maybe check out Stray Kids "Easy" or "God's Menu" if you're willing to check out another boy group
Stevie man...these are just the new kids. You need to check out the OG female rapper from Korea, Tasha (aka Yoon Mi-Rae). Her rap voice is fucking fire! And she has some songs in ENGLISH cos she's half Korean and half American. She's one of the true originators of Hip Hop scene in Korea back in the 90s.
Their visual effects in the original video solidified the experience!! 🔥 🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️
Definitely gotta watch the original video 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah he should watch the vid 100%%%%
AGREED, the composure, production quality, just amazing, he's going to love it!
Second girl, no
@@Tz3952ii?
official music video hits way harder with the visuals
Yeah, Cocona's facial expressions and gestures elevate her performance through the roof.
With how young they are and how good they are, one can only imagine how much better they’ll be a few years down the line and it’s a journey I’m willing to follow.
My bad, def fucked up the first upload of this....smh. They fire though
Nice reaction man, was looking forward to this one. There is a music video if you want to see them go at it, no subs on the music video but it's a vibe. All the best man.
Def have to do the music video, plus they have a song called tippy toes that’s iight too
Cocona was 16 when she did this song whats even more insane. She just recently turned 17 I believe. Maya is 17, and Harvey n Jurin are both 20.
A song I highly recommend is *Absinthe by Punchnello.* That song is 100% my pure rage song.
Maya and Cocona, just different only 4months. And it doesn't make Maya not to be the youngest.
Harvey was 19 when this was recorded…she just turned 20 a week or so after Cocona turned 17.
XG is my new shit. I'm so excited for what these girls do in the future. Still can't replace Soyeon but likely to be tops in J/Kpop scenes
Soyeon was a freestyle beast too just like these girls.
they beat soyeon in the english department... whenever soyeon raps with english lyrics it's just cringe worthy.
@@NEWBOTANICA you mean when she writes in English? Cause XG has zero credits in any language to date. She just needs a good English writer and then problem solved, right?
@@ashvandal5697 her lyrics, her pronunciation, her choice of rhyming with english words. You don't need writing credits to be a good and or famous rapper... you do however need good diction. Which sadly soyeon does not..
@@NEWBOTANICA literally one song in almost a hundred. Y’all really pick up anything you possibly can to hate on Soyeon.
It’s amazing that you managed to find the one “audio only” version of this on RUclips 😂
They have live versions of each of these freestyles also..lit
So glad you reacted to this cause they snapped.🔥 but cocanna and maya Carried honestly they coming to rule the female rap game I see it now.
Stevie you have to watch the music video big homie, you won’t be disappointed. It hits different.
They all got live versions of this! You’d love it
You need to watch the video for this, Cocona's expression is giving us some serious attitude 🤣
didn't think you'd tap into korean/japanese music haha. Ayy let's gooooo
Enjoyed your reaction. Their visual effects are badass too. The visuals for their upcoming new song are crazy artwork , reminds us of their roots.
XG Tape 2 you see the girls in action ...dope !!
Omg watching their video takes it on a whole other LEVEL!!!!!
Bro, you gotta watch their music video for this track!
Another 🔥 video! Happy new year to you and the fam! May 2023 be filled with blessings and joy sir!
craziest part is how young they are with that kinda skill, cocona is 16, maya and harvey are 18 and jurin is 20.
LOVE youre reacting to this.
I know you like Kendrick so you might wanna check out bewhY-gottasadae. hes fucking sick in all of his songs but that one has a huge kendrick inspiration
bewhy gottasadae yes 🔥

they are japanese not korean
3:24 You can actually see them do it live! They each have a full live individual version. It's even better!
Would love to see the official MV. Cocona was only 16 during this. Just turned 17. The visuals are fire
Finally. I get to see steve knight reaction abt this
Anyone curious in other k-pop cyphers look up the BTS ones all but the first one goes hard
Second one harder in my opini on
LMFAO, you not feeling comfortable with male Kpop Artist humors me.
It's hilarious 😂 Shame, as there's a lot of music I feel Stevie would rock with once he got past it.
Exactly I think that’s because of his American masculinity.

You gotta see the video
2022 was the year girls dominated kpop. stand by 2023
Woke Up
check out their Chill Bill Xypher!
I was go like the video until he said what he said bout BTS the army in me got triggered 😑😑😑
The last girl, Juran had that Wu-Tang-esk flow.
I hear ya, I lived in South Korea for three years and it took a minute, but give it time... the talent and dedication is extreme... you'll see, just keep going down this rabbit hole, it's a blast!
I must of been sleeping on some K-pop. Never thought I'd say this but that's some good shit. Nice spot
They ain't kpop they are Japanese and can speak English and Korean. Japan is superior in hip hop than Korea.
@@rue3725 thanks for that. Excuse my ignorance in this scene. Enjoyed it though. I've only ever really listened to nujabes in Japanese hip hop. Which I loved.
@@rue3725 I’m not sure how you can Japan is superior in rap?

Most of the k pop I heard, nah.
2023 is gonna be a good year 👌 they bring da fire 🔥
You have to checkout Jurin and Harvey on the Chill Bill track 🔥
Can you react to one of their new song called "Woke Up"? just wanna see your reactions n opinions for that song if possible
Watch the official video Version!!!!
Yea these girls are lit, good reaction bruh
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but to judge people by how they look or dress is really pathetic. Hope you don't encounter that same behavior towards yourself.
ALPHAZ ON DECK❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
XG are a new group and they are doing GREAT.
If you decide do a reaction of BTS you will like them too, if so start with the 4 cyphers, then Daechwita and August D (Suga) then Ddaeng ( lyrics) first so you will understand the message .....💜. I purple you. Have fun in your journey.!
Damnnnnn Skippppyyyyyy! 4sure I F$ckssss with it...FIRE🔥🔥🔥
Bruh....do the woke up video that just dropped
Please Stevie you have to react to "Gottasadae" by Bewhy. You will not regret it I can promise you that on my life.
Thank you for this reaction!!!
"Woke up " is a nice song by them
Xg Tape 1 and test vidoes are great as well check them out next
Why not the real MV?
asia females showing us up, our female rappers gotta step it up man x.x
There is a live version and it’s visually really appealing 😭
its even better with the video mannnnnn.
Lol each to their own, but I thought Stevie would be above the whole looks thing and care more about the music.
I would think Stevie wouldn’t judge people by how they look. His comments about how talented BTS are but his apprehension because they look a certain way to him shows how messed up masculinity can be in America.
it's sad but also disappointing. This is my first time on the channel but after the comment about bts I probably won't come again(no hate or anything)
@@Marysia77 he is usually open minded but for some reason he has consistently been negative toward BTS and kpop in general. He also didn’t like blackpink so idk why he likes this group.

@@DrAmber2004 Didn't like Blackpink so idk why he likes this group what? It's cause of different music
K pop fans can't tell how the general public think about BTS because they are k pop fan. Lol
@@Tz3952ii funny you bring that up, bc in Japan BTS was named the number one artist in Japan, the second largest music market in the world. Artist not kpop act. So I would say the general public of Japan has spoken. Lastly, BTS is beyond kpop.
These girls are Fire!!! Please see the 'video'! Happy New Year. 🥳🎉🥳
They have a music video for this track
Yoo..there is video to this if you wanna see them killing it
I recommend that you must see them
Agreed Miss Fat Booty is the goat of this track
Damn I really wanted to see you react to the video. You HAVE to see the real vid. Cocona murders it
How have you not seen the video before this? They even have solo videos.
Go react to their new song “woke up” that shit 🔥
1:57 oof 😅
not everyone’s thing I guess. I’ve always been into Asian artists so I guess I’m just used to more “feminine” looking guys. Always interesting to see how people react to different cultures
Justhis killing verse
The fact that Cocona is literally 16 when they made this bop makes my jaw wide open
Don't sleep on Harvey. She's 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
There is mv at thier xg official RUclips channel
That second one gave me Left Eye vibes.
"It's the optics of BTS is what fucks me up" - This gotta be a top ten quote about kpop of all time. I love kpop but that's still hilarious.
『XG TAPE#1』pleeeeeeeeeeeease next reaction‼︎
In the words of Jackson Wang, XG is the future!!!
this shit hard 😂
it pronounced kok-ona btw ! thanks for reacting to them
Stevie I've been watching your videos for a while man you should have watched the original video those girls are fire
If you want to take another shot after this, you may like Purge by H1gher Music
Cocona is only like 16 too! To be that good at 16 is amazing.
Can you please react to Cocona "dirt off your shoulders" 🔥🔥🔥
If youre interested in more K hiphop I would recommend Flowsik ft. Jessi "Wet"
Jessi- "Coldblooded"
Eung Freestyle
CL "Lifted" "Hello Bitches"
Maybe check out Stray Kids "Easy" or "God's Menu" if you're willing to check out another boy group
Cocona was 16 when her part in this went viral
Check out.... Jurin, Harvey - chill bill
Watch the music video they made for this !!!!
Jid got it from the QUEEN Aretha of course
Yea I get that about bts. That’s how I feel about watching Meg the stallion and cardi b I just cat watch their stuff
I need to reaction to the music video lol
good morning
i’m your 1k like ❤
Now react to jurin and Harvey - chill bill
React to Bewhy Challen. His flow is crazy.
Watch the original video. I've been waiting for your reaction to this.
There speaking 3 languages in this cipher
Never did I expect u to react to any form of K-pop or jpop
Wow Japanese girls group XG🇯🇵💘
soooooooo cool!💖💖💖💖💖
Stevie man...these are just the new kids. You need to check out the OG female rapper from Korea, Tasha (aka Yoon Mi-Rae). Her rap voice is fucking fire! And she has some songs in ENGLISH cos she's half Korean and half American. She's one of the true originators of Hip Hop scene in Korea back in the 90s.
Check out xg tape 1 chill Bill it's fire tape 2 also gots a mv
If your getting on foreign(ish) rap you need to listen to MIYACHI - POCCHARI
Bruh check out Jessi collabs...Wet (has Flowsik who isn't a bts style rappin dude lol), Drip, and Ganji. HARD AF
American female rappers are already on notice they better bring their a-game.
