Didn't realise this had so many dislikes, that was surprising to see. I mean I didn't like it first listen but that's what every aespa song is like, now it lives rent-free in my head
I love that they end the song on "What?" - because that's how I feel every time I hear it. It took a few listens to really grow on me, and that hook DOES get stuck in your head.
If you've been listening to SM's songs ...wwwwwwaaaayyy back the 2nd gen of kpop groups..you will never be surprised of songs like this.... 😆😆 This is SM.
I think i would be surprised if they wont do this kind of sound or music.. I really admire reactors who knows the background of the grpup's company or the group itself...
Same here. I feel like if you've listened to Triangle by TVXQ, BOA, and The Trax and liked it, songs like aespa's and The Boys by SNSD aren't as jarring.
I felt the same the first time I heard it, the second verse was what got me as well. The last chorus did feel cluttered, but those adlibs plant something in your head and it all just eventually grows on you even if you don't go back to listen to it often. Now it might even be my favorite K-Pop release this year.
This is Kpop. The visual aspect is as important as the music, and vice versa. This is especially true when it comes to Aespa, as their whole concept is based around storytelling.
@@cayonaianjakem.9961 Black Mamba - World building story where they introduce the avatars and the enemy, Black Mamba. Next Level - Story where they explain them traveling to where Black Mamba lives. Savage - Story where they encounter Black Mamba and defeat him by shooting him through its eye but it comes back in the end to swamp them.
@@cayonaianjakem.9961 you have it in the MV but for other people it would be better watching SMCU content. Next Level explains it well + the music does too and the lytics as well. So yeah for ppl that are bad to get lore through MV in general it is better watching exta content
I love how pretty much any song that SM does in general, switches up, has new styles and beats in the middle of the songs. Creating songs with multiple styles and sounds in one song is kind of SM signature thing. When you keep on experimenting you get something new, that’s how music or anything evolves. aespa being one of the groups who tries to change the whole dynamics and perspective of music so people either are going to love them or hate them for bringing the change.
I think most casual music listeners wouldn't appreciate this song at the 1st listen. For me, it requires a good amount of musicality to go deep into the song itself. There has been a lot of things going on in the song alone.. Most people think that it's a messy sound but all of them were actually mixed pretty well.. The beat and vocals are insane plus I really like the weird transitions. The whole album is a bop by the way.. Full of insane harmonies and vocal runs plus they're not aespa music if there aren't weird but perfect transitions..
the ending part after the bridge with all those random sounds and high notes and the second part of the chorus with the harmony just sounds so sloppy and messy. Everything else is sound and well done, ez to enjoy.
I think Aespa is amazing really because they are doing something so different with their music. It's so weird that you question if you like it or not.... then discover you've been humming it all day 😅😅 they are taking risks, where as a lot of other groups are keeping it safe lol I kinda love it but I usually have to listen to something for a whole week before I can decide if I like it or not 🤣
It's not them.. it's their company who made them an experimental song and if u read the lyrics u will know how cringe the song is..their voices are what saved the song plus the transition and adlibs are just forced in their every songs to call it unique..its generic either way.
@@thisissneha_ they are explaining the kwangya concept or theme in their lyrics. It's just storytelling. Whether u like the story or not is upto u. Doesn't matter. *I'll* *tell* *you* *what* *generic* *is* : *PTD* . You want another example? Here u go : *DYNAMITE* . Another one? Here u go : *Butter* . You know what saved these songs? *NOTHING* . You know what's cringey in these songs? *The* *heavy* *load* *of* *cringe* *autotune* , *dananana*'s , *elton* *John* , *le* *bron* in dynamite & ptd. Ptd and dynamite take cringe to the next level.
@@ygdrake4206 but none of the bts songs are mentioned in this videos..what is the obsession ?? Plus a concept and song are two different things..its not a new concept and songs matters not concept..concept are just for show. black mamba , next level are literally so bad songs.. Savage was bearable..
When ReactToTheK interviewed some of team credited on this song, they basically said "yeah we don't actually know what key it's in, except the bridge." That's about how I feel about Savage, it makes no sense, but I still love it.
The amount of dislikes are not really for the music but for the artist (aespa) itself. Well lots of fandom are threatened on how successful aespa is, especially those 4th gen fandoms who got outshined by aespa and from some senior fandom who are either threatened or sees potential that aespa will become bigger than how they are today
SM is an entertainment famous for releasing experimental songs. Thank you for the reaction to the song I recommended. Please listen to other songs, too!
This is why sm entertainment artists are so strong. They never afraid to experiment and they always find such unique ideas for others to follow. They make the trends. They aint biggest kpop music label for no reason. sm is the blueprint and if yall dont agree with that, then fight with the wall.
i think this type of music (hyperpop) is an introduction of an evolution of futuristic sounding music, we are done with 2010s trap, we're moving to futuristic beats.
The first time I heard the dance break section of this song TT immediately brought me back to EXO'S 2012 Mama debut song during their dance break and I love it :)
This song is so good.. For me it was song of the year.. I mean it's unique and too good.. Why not like it.. Rap vocals dance graphics edit.. Everything
I mean that's SM Entertainment's style at first listen to their artists' songs you'll not like it, but when you kept in repeating it you'll definitely get addicted to it.
Aespa's Bsides are WAY better than their singles. But we can say this about every SM artist. Savage is an experience. It doesn't work for me but everyone should give this song a chance
True. SM singles and title songs are usually the trademark SM songs where it's weird and experimental and the the bsides are the ones that usually suit the general public tastes at first listen.
I love the song! Definitely would be addicted after few listens. Please react more to SM artists music it's so fresh and unique. You should check out NCT!!
thankyou for your reaction mr. :D i suggest you to listen to all the tracks in their 1st mini album savage, because i think it's all very good!! REALLY ♡__♡
Hey Joey! You haven't reacted to Exo in a while. Can you react to Exo - Don't fight the feeling MV? It is their most recent comeback that broke all of their previous records! Thank you in advance! :)
i cant believe ive watched your videos since you reacting to exo’s songs! but yeah, SM song are weirdly great/? people who are dislike NCT or aespa songs are probably only listening to it for the first time when you should listen to their songs at least for 5 times to get it and remember the beats lol
At first I didn't care for the song but it's grown on me a bit and I'd say it's overall a good track. I don't mind the "weird" sounds but reallly wish they didn't have the spoken du-du-du-du, it just breaks my immersion. The group members all have such nice voices I wish SM gave them more trap-style beats and shifted the focus to singing/rapping longer more consistent verses/courses without so many adlibs, while keep the futuristic sounds since it gives them a unique flair from other groups that I think works so nice with their style.
Perst! lol always wanted to do that, now to watch... Aespa the girl group for the Mobile game for League of Legends - Wild Rift You should react to that btw Aespa - Next Level
i cant express in words how much i love the choice of just making anti music like this (very much including the ending) but doing it to the typical sm standard of quality. they could put out paint by numbers pop and it would sell but theyre choosing to go all out.
Pls react to more nct too. Their music is arguably most experiment versatile and personally the best in the industry to me. Nct 127 - bring the noize Nct 127 - punch, sit down etc
What's wrong with people?? Am I the only one who liked the song from the first listen?? The song is a BOP and I really liked it from the first time Tbh, for me it's their BEST song along with Dreams come true
Wait People doen't like this song? I think was the first time I fell in love with a kpop song at first time listining, the others I had to listen more than one time to really love
I just don't understand the song, I mean I like it as different songs but as one my brain just can't process what is happening, Is like they mix 4 or 5 songs together and make them fit by force, but somehow I enjoyed it.
As much as i love this song i’m glad you touched on the fact that the end sounds messy because i thought it was just me. There’s just so much going on at the end with the backing vocals that it kind of derails the whole fluidity the rest of the song had but otherwise great song and enjoyed the reaction.
Actually the messy sounds are intentional in a way . It's showing how they are battling out of black mamba which is messy I suppose . The music is reflecting the story here .
Didn't realise this had so many dislikes, that was surprising to see. I mean I didn't like it first listen but that's what every aespa song is like, now it lives rent-free in my head
It was similar to next level for me, I had to listen to it a lot before I liked it. Its also not standard girl kpop song.
I think the many dislikes is because of Giselle said the n word
@@dane_ily nope it's because of the haters who are afraid of aespa's popularity
People forgot what kpop was like, THIS is KPOP
@@dane_ilyin addition, theyre from the fandoms who are afraid aespa will beat their fave
Aespas music is weird but it's so addictive
When first hear it, feel like this is something, If keep listening, will become addicted.
Thats because you dont listen to NCT haha... This one is exactly NCT's style of music
I love weird music lol
some smtown music is kinda weird..

So what's the story? Sorry, didn't quite get that except in Black Mamba but Next Level and Savage didn't really deliver a story
@@cayonaianjakem.9961 I think the story isn't on the MV alone. Watch smcu episode 1, it'll help...

Follow the story folks.. that ending was the big battle with Black Mamba. Aespa is so original, so talented, so fresh for Kpop.
Their music really is so different to a lot of what I typically hear from Kpop 🔥
When ReactToTheK interviewed some of team credited on this song, they basically said "yeah we don't actually know what key it's in, except the bridge." That's about how I feel about Savage, it makes no sense, but I still love it.
EXACTLY💯. THEY REALLY HAVE TALENTS. DEFINITELY 💯. THEY CAN SING, RAP AND DANCE. VISUALS IS JUST A BONUS FOR THIS GROUP ♥️.
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE, TURN IT UP
The amount of dislikes are not really for the music but for the artist (aespa) itself. Well lots of fandom are threatened on how successful aespa is, especially those 4th gen fandoms who got outshined by aespa and from some senior fandom who are either threatened or sees potential that aespa will become bigger than how they are today

aespa is lit, I liked their sound right away, their music is unique and I love that
I love this song and album so much!!
Thank you for reacting to aespa!! Ur a legend
Aespa's sound is very unique, very industrial, futuristic.
If you liked the song then please also listen to his other song "Next Level", I assure you that it will also surprise you
WE NEED MORE SM ARTIST ON THIS CHANNEL
SM always not afraid to make new concept like whe i was a kid i love f(x) so much they're unique and have one tomboy member Amber
Aespa next level reaction would be something else
The 'STOP SHOOTING ME!' part got me 😭😭😭
i think this type of music (hyperpop) is an introduction of an evolution of futuristic sounding music, we are done with 2010s trap, we're moving to futuristic beats.

Omg the joey reacts are always the best

Loved your excellent breakdown ..thought this quite funky ....I like it thanku so much love and God bless x
The first time I heard the dance break section of this song TT immediately brought me back to EXO'S 2012 Mama debut song during their dance break and I love it :)
The album is so good I recommend it
saying an SM artist can sing is like saying Usain Bolt can run 🤣🤣🤣
there are levels to this game
this song threw me so off when it first came out but when i listened to it a third time, it got kind of addicting lol
Conflicted Joey best Joey
