    XG's concept is that they're aliens from another world that can transform and move like a pack of wolves which is why their fandom name is ALPHAZ🐺A concept that works perfect for them because they trained together for 5 years before making their debut so they have a very strong bond together and they're on another level because they have no weak members or weak songs. Instead it's truly an all-rounder group where all seven members can sing, rap, dance, sound the same live, has amazing stage presence that can do basically any music genre from dance and UK garage to real rap (rhyme schemes, doubles, triples, different cadences and flows) and rnb ballads. They have even done a rock version for one of their biggest hits Shooting Star.

    The INTRO is JAZZ BASS. The pyramid is a real set. Each member is multi talented. Thank you for reacting to this AMAZING Xpop Group. Seven young Japanese Artists. XGALX Production Team is ELITE. All seven can SING, RAP and Dance like a DANCE CREW. This is all delivered in ENGLISH…their third language. Excellent Choice. See you on the next one. Merry Christmas ❄️☃️🎄💫🕊️ 2024’.

    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.
    There are tiny little scenes in the video that are really hard to see. Pay close attention to the frames between minutes 1:30 and 1:31
    F I G H T I N G 🐺🐺👽👽
    there is also the “behind the scenes” video of the MV. Definitely worth watching

    I like your reactions, subbed here.
    XG got to my ears through random playlists on Spotify while on the train (good algorithm, good Spotify!) It was Howling, so yeah, that opened a new direction in my Kpop rabbit hole.
    I have no idea what recommendations you received so far, but what got me (back) into Kpop was Gidle - (back in another life -aka before Covid- I kinda got into BTS for like a month, but nothing else). If there's a side of you kinda into social messages and generally deeper messages in songs, Gidle has some interesting stuff (what's also cool about them is that they're mostly self produced, with their Leader being the main 'actor' in that sense).
    So yeah, if you wanna add something else to the list (or bump something already recommended), look into (G)I-DLE and, of course, the kings of Kpop , BTS.

    • @inthecutmv

    You’ve definitely been missing out if you’re not up on XG, as they just finished their first world tour and are literally the most talented young gg in music right now (no disrespect to other gg’s). 7 members, all have main vocalist vocals, 4 main rappers who are world class (even JID gave props to Cocona for her cover of Surround Sound). They use a lot of anime and Japanese culture for inspiration and for Howling Jurin is San (Princess Mononoke) and Harvey is Deer God/Nightwalker, who has the ability to heal and replenishes the earth with each step. There are many other cultural references (MJ, Matrix, Hunger Games etc) in this and all their music and videos

    The only other M/V that is somewhat on the similar level to this one in 2024 is actually the winner of the MAMA M/V of the year award of 2024, AESPA - Armageddon M/V
    You will not understand 95% of the concept without their really deep lore, but the visuals speak for themselves: (and the 100M+ Views in 6 months....)

      @firavun8943 Месяц назад +3

      @@CsLaci81 you just changed it immediately after 2 people disagreed lmao. XG's costumes alone are more work than entire MV you shared. Let alone the editorial. MAMA doesnt mean shit since it is rigged. Big Label money can get you all the awards you want. XG won the fan votes on MAMA,they didn't even nominate XG lol. Didnt give the award either. Another group got the fan vote award even tho XG won. Not to mention, another MV winning the "MV of the year" award when there were Howling and WOKE UP. KEKW.
      Aespa and some other groups are popular for a few simple reasons.
      Big label money-marketing
      Copy-paste music appealing to the general public,not niche like XG for example.
      Also, most "hardcore" k-pop fans only there to glaze beauty of the idols. They care more about how handsome/pretty they are than the music. You can even see this if you check their comments. Example:Karina. Especially Koreans keep glazing how pretty she is with all that surgery. If you remove these NPC's and bought views/awards etc, there is not much left.
