The way they stack their rap together that flows like water, is fantastic. They have the song writers, and the roster to execute them well. Xg are on a tier of their own
Howling is a tribute to both Japanese and Black American culture. The costumes and theme are a nod to the Japanese anime "Princess Mononoke" while the lyrics and raps, and some imagery, are a nod to Michael Jackson's "Earth Song". XG isn't just putting out music, they are producing art with every release. Nobody else, east or west, is doing this. Their lore is that they are "Galactic Wolves" traveling the galaxy conquering planets. The fandom is called ALPHAZ and we're part of the collective wolf pack. 🐺🐺🐺🐺
What about THE most FAMOUS bald female singer Sinèad O’Connor ..? She made bald look GORGEOUS in the 90’s and once she shaved it she never grew it back for the rest of her life. I believe she was in her 20’s when she did it and passed at 56. ♥️ rip to our queen. ♥️
K-pop is a music industry, not a genre. I know what they claim, but they’re Korean-based so that’s K-pop. There are all kinds of alternative music in K-pop, not just them. I love their music, but come on, X-pop? As you can see, that’s just confusing.
@sharonlahaye5803 In the sense that it refers to the Korean pop music industry. The only reason XG is based in Korea is that XG used the Korean training system for 5 years before their debut and that Simon was accustomed to, It doesn't change the fact that they are a Japanese Global Group that performs Hip Hop and R&B. If you have to call them something, then call them what they are, a global girl group or Jpop. You'll save yourself a lot of complaints from Alphaz's. Just saying
ALPHAZ ON DECK 🐺🐺🐺 many references to anime in the video. Starting with “Memories” by Katsuhiro Otomo right at the beginning, to Ghost in the Shell (Harvey) and of course a lot of Princess Mononoke. Not forgetting, of course, all the other references, for example: Michael Jackson with Thriller and Moonwalk. Then of course the Matrix. Not to mention all the bars. The three vocals here in the video are the goddess and the rappers are the warriors
Fyi man, Howling and Woke Up are some of their hardest songs. Most of their previous tracks are way more pop-based with godlike rap flows here and there. So while I think they're all fucking fantastic and just shows how versatile XG's talent is, just giving a heads-up about the genre switch up. That said, I'd recommend going through XG MVs from oldest to new. Well, I'd start with Shooting Star (where they picked up a more approachable melody than their earliest works) which skyrocketed their popularity (with the views to prove it) and go from there!
XPop was conceptualized 30 yrs ago. We first called this genre Apop for AsiaPop but it didn't feel right. All of us settled on XPop. We thought Perry would start it off when he released Storm. The beats tho... I've heard them before and I think Perry is working with Simon. Anyways...Winter Without You is something else. I suggest the First Take video. Enjoy the rabbit hole.
If I remember correctly, I believe Solar from Mammamoo went the full bald at one point. (Edit: I just researched. She did do a fake bald thing for one of her solo photoshoots or whatever, but I'm pretty sure I saw something about her actually doing it for real sometime after that, for women empowerment I think)
You’re thinkin too much about it and trying to disect it lol it’s as simple as the eye test…..when you see rare god given talent you know an athletes going to be special. These girls are the most impressive and talented musical specimens you have seen or heard in a couple decades 😂😂 just accept it. I know it seems crazy and far fetched but I promise you…..NO ONE IS TOUCHING THESE GIRLS!!!!
Hello friends, I've enjoyed your reactions on youtube and patreon. I'm happy you react to kpop now not only kdrama. I strongly recommend a girl group named Le sserafim. They are very performance core idol. It wourd be nice if you react to them.
Their songs don’t even sound like K-Pop, that’s one reason why they’re not K-Pop. They’re Japanese and K is Korean. K-Pop took the idol ideas from the west, but made improvements. They saw how BSB, *NSYNC and other boy and girl bands was created and that’s how K and J pop pretty much started. They’re just added the rap elements to the dance and singing. X-pop took that and made more improvements by having all members that can rap, sing and dance.
Originally, K-pop was inspired by J-pop idols. Actually, the concept of idols originated in Japan. The entire 'K-pop system' is based on a blueprint from the Japanese idol industry, such as Johnny's Jr., which introduced the idea of trainees and similar practices. But XG is definitely not K-pop; it’s X-pop because their songs have more Western influences and some J-pop elements rather than typical K-pop styles, as you mentioned.
WTF. Is something wrong with this guy? Is he serious? Just because he suffers from male pattern baldness does not necessarily automatically make him the same as Cocona. For one thing she is a hyper talented young lady and Japanese and he is well.......a middle-aged man in his mom's basement making youtube videos. HHHMMM... I don't see the overwhelming similarities. Is it just me.
They're not K-pop because they aren't Korean and do not sing or rap in Korean (on official tracks) People described them that way because they saw Asian women and assumed that they were Korean, I'm guessing since K-pop is so popular ATM. But if a person were to hear XG for the first time without the visuals, I highly doubt K-pop would even be mentioned. Obviously, their main influences musically are western (black) artusts, not Korean. And although, XGALX is based in South Korea. They are a subsidiary of AVEX, a Japanese company. I'm guessing Korea was chosen because mamger/producer Simon is a former K-pop idol, so he's more familiar and probably has more connects there.
@powbobs Good reactors watch the mv the first time without saying too much, as their expressions tell the story perfectly. Then they'll watch it again, pausing to review parts they liked, and those they didn't. But hey, I did say those are GOOD reactors.

Yeah XG has a reoccurring theme of lime Wolves and packs, the fandom name is ALPHAZ
XG Coachella April 13 and 20th for 2024 it's a 7 japanese global girl group. Xpop

Cocona said in BTS for this video that her costume represented her past life, said she was a dragon 🐉
She still is 🥰
♥️🐉
She was joking.
Oh wow, I watch you whenever you react to Wuthering Waves! Glad you are a fan of XG! 😊
XG🔥🔥🔥🐺🐺🐺
XG are alien wolves, that's why they can adapt to every new world they go to.
They tour the states and Europe and Asia 🌏
Cocona My bias ❤
XG is the best!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
That cocona's landing is just like isagi's winning goal.. XG🔥 🔥 🐺🦊👽💫
Listen to TGIF, left right and shooting star next😊
What about THE most FAMOUS bald female singer Sinèad O’Connor ..?

♥️ rip to our queen. ♥️
💯💯💯💯
I understand him not knowing about Mrs. O'Connor. She might be before his time, especially if he's younger than 37-40 years old.
@ ... oh. I guess I just assumed. . 😖
My 17, 22 and 25 year old sons know of her, but it’s prob bc I used to listen to her all the time. 🥰
@ Yeah I know a lot of old school artist because of my parents. That's why we are always grateful for our mothers and fathers.
@@BrettMurphynorthps the world needs more guys that love and appreciate their moms music tastes. (esp if their mom grew up in the 90’s like I did) 🥰
XGちゃんのリアクション嬉しいです。有難うございます🐺💫👽
these my goats
You won't find anything in Kpop like this XG performance

@@davidgollinger7376 ok. Thanks.
楽しいリアクションありがとうございます❤
やったー!!!ありがとうございます!
いつもアニメのリアクションも楽しく見てます(∩´∀`∩)💕
They are Japanese so if anything it should be jpop, kpop is for korean but they are xpop since they do all genre.
I promise you right now that I will be there for every future XG reaction. Wishing for "Left Right" and "GRL GVNG" next^^
The Fandom of XG are called Alphaz's hence the wolf theme
LESSS GOOO

Fun fact : that wooshh you’ve mentioned earlier? See @1:05 on MJ Thriller.
You’re welcome 😊
You should react to more vocals of them in their songs: something ain't right - left and right - puppet show - xg tape 2 mv's
Multi syllabic rhyme scheme

Yes. They're alien wolves. 👽🐺 You'll see these emojis a lot from Alphaz.
You should react to the mini album “ awe” !!

That was stand up bass, not bass guitar.
Corona is me⁉️
But she doesn’t have any cool beard😂
Pls watch booseoksoon (seventeen sub-unit) 'fighting' and their new song 'cbz (prime time)"

You lost my view within two minutes.
You chopped the flow of this song into little tiny pieces.

It’s called reacting, not watching.
