I’m seeing a lot of reaction videos from creators who are very used to the KPop formula that are confused by Young Posse’s music. I believe that YP is 70% hip hop and 30% KPop. It reminds me of some of BIGBANG’s early work where looking back today I would think they’re more of a hip hop group than a KPop group. Isn’t it time to stretch the KPop formula to include hip hop groups as a sub genre?
Thanks for your comments! Yes, it is somewhat unusual for a girl group to have such a strong and youthful hip-hop concept. Boy groups have followed this line quite a bit but girl groups usually have more of a blend of R&B and hip-hop or follow the girl crush model. Obviously things are changing in the 5th gen.
YP's music videos are wacky, but it still works because the music behind them is taken seriously. Similar to an Orange Caramel or Psy, a very talented artist just having fun with it.
