    XG is just simply amazing. XG is rooted in old skool R&B/HipHop they grew up idolizing those artists. And what girl group on the planet is doing what XG is doing at the level they are doing it? No one. Period. They literally can do anything & everything. Elite rapline, elite vocalists, elite dance crew. The 7 young women of XG are just on another level. "Winter Without You" is such old skool R&B 90s/early 2000s perfection. It's currently #1 on the U.S. iTunes R&B chart. if you want you mind blown you 1000% need to watch XG's legendary cypher that went viral globally "XG TAPE #2 GALZ XYPHER" it will show you why XG is known for having the strongest rapline of any girl group.
    And ive always loved XG's dark simple vibe debut with "Tippy Toes" Once you go down the XG rabbit hole you never return like all the millions of us. XG was just also featured on the cover of U.S. Billboard Magazine OCT.

      @@douglastjchew Welcome to ALPHAZ 🐺we look forward to watching your XG journey. We all went through it and these young queens of XG are going to capture your heart. I never "stanned" a group in my life until XG. They are so insanely talented, charismatic & beasts on stage, but yet so humble and down to earth off stage. One funny thing is Shooting Star is def going to grow on you lol. Its their most loved and famous song next to Left Right.

    Thanks for giving XG another chance! You won’t be disappointed. They have a lot of content to get to know them better, their backstories, their personalities, their art. They’re a group that draws you in and makes you proud to stan them ALPHAZ! Like others have said, enjoy your discovery. Also, they have subtitles if you want to really catch all what they say. I’m sure you know already. 🐺👽💫✨💖

  • @OleDirtyBastard68
    @OleDirtyBastard68 9 месяцев назад +8

    One thing about XG is that no two songs sound alike; they can (and do!) cover nearly every style/genre. The common denominator is that it's all genuinely rooted in 90s/y2k sound. But from there it can go 90s/y2k Hip Hop, 90s/y2k R&B, 90s/y2k Pop, 90s/y2k Club Sounds, or any mixture of these. More emphasis on rap and R&B, but you literally never know what will come next. Expect the unexpected.
    Production is immaculate. Always. The amount of attention they pay to even tiniest details is mindblowing. Same for choreography.
    If you want to get to know more about individual members, I'd recommend to not stick with the official group tracks only, but venture to the "sidelines" ... the Tape series for the rapline (Jurin, Cocona, Harvey, Maya), the Vox series for the vocalists (Chisa, Hinata, Juria), and the Move series for their dance skills (here especially the seven Move #2 videos, one for each ... because those also tell you a lot about their individual personalities).

    XG is extremely versatile…so they’ve only been out for a little over a year now. This Japanese Global Girl Group are Top 🔝 Level Artists. I would recommend their Documentary Series “Xtra Xtra”…their Executive Producer, Simon “Jakops” was a former K-pop Idol and he is the genius and visionary for these Amazing Girls. He explains his goal of creating a full Japanese Girl Group but it also demonstrates their intense five year training. I haven’t loved a pop group like this Xpop Group since 2ne1 which has been several years back although I still listen to CL🍒 their former leader. Excellent Choice in finding XG “Xtraordinary Girls”. Thank for taking the time to react to XG.

  • @stanyamane
    @stanyamane 9 месяцев назад +12

    Welcome to XG! I'm glad you really liked Tippy Toes - you seemed to react strongly to the choreography - you should definitely check out the dance practice (I'd recommend the "Fix ver." as in fixed-camera) as there are ton of great details that weren't shown. If you're planning a deep dive, going in order with the music videos is probably the easiest way to see how the group grows from here, although a chronological trip including the TAPEs, VOXs, and MOVEs might give you a better view of that. The TAPEs highlight the rap line (Jurin, Cocona, Harvey, and Maya). The VOXs highlight the vocal line (Juria, Chisa, and Hinata). MOVEs haven't been done for a while, but they show off group and solo dance. They just had their first solo concert in Japan (2 shows) after appearing at Head in the Clouds in NY and LA, KCON LA, Formula 1 Singapore, SXSW Sydney, Hyperound K-Fest in Abu Dhabi (lots of fan cams available for each, and have just announced a world tour for 2024. They also promote on Korean music programs, although reactions to those tend to get heavily blocked. The fandom name is ALPHAZ, and the group's mascot animal is a wolf/wolfpack (although some individual members have different animals people associate with them - Juria's is a squirrel)

    I think the most underrated members in the group are Maya and Hinata. It's true that, at the beginning, they weren't the first ones to catch my attention, firstly the ones who stuck out the most for me also were Jurin and Harvey, mostly because of their distinct voices, but, as time went on, Maya and Hinata started to catch my eye, they are the groups Aces in my opinion, especially Maya, like- she can do anything amazingly from rapping real fast and with perfect pronunciation, singing with the voice of an angel and being incredibly captivating while DANCING, which is crazy to think about because in their docu series she was almost eliminated in the dance category and now she's one of the best dancers in the group. That's why she's my favorite, she worked extremely hard to be as good as she is today, she failed but kept going, all while maintaining her fun and exciting aura. I love these girls so much, but my bias Martin has a special place in my heart ❤️

    If your interested in how XG came to be, watch the Xtra Xtra series. It chronicles XG from the beginning - trainee days that started with 22 (right number, I think) girls... it shows all of the blood, sweat and tears that XG went through to get where they are. It's a really good series and its on YT.

    Hi ALPHAZ!! Its good that you said in your intro that you saw the HesonooXgene video as darkly themed but undertoned with strong emotions symbolic of coming to the light. In contrast though, we have WWY as a bright themed MV but with sad undertones. Its genius actually on the part of the whole XGALX TEAM!!
    Great review buddy!! I recommend the XTRA XTRA DOCU SERIES TO GET TO KNOW AND LOVE OUR GIRLS MORE.

    RnB - Winter Without You, Left Right and Puppet Show
    Hip Hop - Grl Gvng, Tippy Toes, X-Gene
    Pop - Shooting Star, New Dance
    Electronic - TGIF. Mascara
    they all sort of overlap in terms of genres, they are obviously quite diverse but i think how ive broke it down is the main genre theme of each song c:
    Jurin - Leader, Rapper, Lead Dancer
    Chisa - Sub Leader, Main Vocalist, Oldest
    Hinata - Vocalist
    Harvey - Rapper, Dancer
    Juria - Main Vocalist
    Maya - Rapper, Vocalist, Dancer
    Cocona - Rapper, Dancer, Youngest
