XG's music knowledge is another level 😎
Facts 🔥🔥
FACTSS
Harvey Hair too
they even rapping a krizzle song😢
@@greentea5220 Right!!!! I was hoping somebody would mention Harvey's hair 💞💞💞💞
Most cultured girl group that has the most knowledge and pays the most homage to the culture that influences them. Something so refreshing to see, so proud of them
them and blackpink, bp was singing tlc and spice girls on james corden’s show
no trynna be mean really but blackpink sang 2 popular song idk if they could name Khelani or Big K.R.I.T etc
@@michellecampbell1926 it’s because of Blackpink forsure that paved lots of ways for other girl groups. Being a fan of both.
@@darklink4955 Lisa's favorite song is Honey by Kehlani
Literally! Not many global, non-western groups would ever actually say that they are fans of the Black pioneers who paved the way in music. I love the credit they give!
I'm actually impressed by how they did not include any kpop songs here, that just goes to show their diversified music taste, I love these girls!
Exactly 😂😂😂,and I love that .
XG's music knowledge is another level 😎
I mean they're Japanese...
@@MimSAMV mmm well they were trained by a Korean, they have listened to a lot of kpop.
OMGJSJFJSK THEY WERE SINGING MY FAV SONGS BY SOME OF MY FAV SINGERS IM CEYING
Nobody can question XG's musical pedigree when it comes to hip hop and R&B, they routinely named songs here that are older than themselves. No way they'd know those classic artists if they didn't listen to them on a regular basis.
That part cuz these haters out here talking about culture appropriation wouldn’t haven even thought about BiG K.R.I.T as a song choice
@@momintim Exactly 100%. thats why they are full of 💩
@@momintim facts I love the group but when they sung big krit it shocked me how they knew any southern artist
@@momintim Culture appropriation when they don't like the artist but if they like the artist they called it culture appreciation double standard
Fr people call it cultural appropriation when they said multiple times they're inspired by black artists and groups, listening to them on a daily basis and even working with them in training and for their own songs.
XG is finally getting the recognition. they are slowly building they way up✨️
still very underrated tho
XG going all the way ❤️🔥
They have that IT component only Legendary groups have. XG feels organic and genuine
@@HipHopLucky7 yep
ALPHAZ let's bring XG to the top 🔥🔥
You know XG’s becoming big when they’ve been featured on ELLE only a year into their debut ^^
💜 💜
Right ❤
@@ELLE ahhhh I can’t believe you replied to me 💞
they deserve it ❤️
@@bellachewyhanselharvey yes ❤❤
they're hands down the most musically cultured group in their industry
truth
i agree when it comes to overall rnb, hip hop, and soulful english songs, but just because xg is well cultured in western music doesn't make the other kpop/jpop groups that are still very knowledgeable and cultured in asian, korean, and japanese music any less cultured!
xg is way more knowledgeable in western music than other kpop groups, yes, but we've seen other groups VERY cultured of their own language/country's music and that's just as impressive!
an asian group doesn't have to be very cultured about western music (outside of their language, culture, and area) in order for them to be considered knowledgeable in music!! :D
@bingbong6323 while what you say is pretty true, I don't think anyone said that.
the way they can just randomly sing a song completely all in harmony is amazing to me, XG is truly 4th gens best group
4th gen what ?
They're International group
Ay it louder!!! But I think their are not exactly labeled as kpop (cause they are japanese and sing in english, haha)
PREACH!!!!
they not kpop lol
XG proving once again their immaculate taste in music!! Love me girlies and how they are inspired by so many black r&b and hip hop legends!!!
Harvey dropping "no diggity by blackstreet " a jam from 1996 ? Yo that tells you everything
@@ChRisu_Ojisan Fr I was SHOOK😳
@@Avi.joyyy12 teddy Riley and Dave Hollister were by favorites
@@ChRisu_Ojisan Yup i still have my original Blackstreet CD from back back in the day
Best girls👍✨✨✨✨
What I love about them is that you can tell that they actually know and enjoy that style of music, it’s not just a concept for them. To me their y2k concept seems the most authentic right now. With other groups, you can tell that it’s just a concept or trend for them and the members don’t know anything about that style or the artists that pioneered that era.
👍
exactly No Diggity came out in 1996
@@ChRisu_Ojisan I loved that Blackstreet Album! Great that XG going to bag it up!
I think a lot of the credit here should go to Simon, the producer. These girls didn't just happen to get enamored with hip hop and R&B from thirty years ago out of nowhere.
@@psycho013 well if we are gonna give 💐 the parents probably have also influence i would not be surprised if there are artist they know because of their parents ...
It's more than just learning to sing in the english language. XG feels authentic in their passion, purpose and music direction. That's why they are a cut above the rest of the idol groups of this generation.
You can even tell how they enjoy their own songs and not going through the motion like robots. It's refreshing to see in a sea of heavily manufactured idols.
Cocona didn't lie when she said "XG bout to break ya idol stereotypes" ❤🔥❤🔥
💯💯💯💯💯💯
a group that calls their genre R&B and actually knows about R&B
The way they actually gave us an entire R&B playlist with songs old and new to discover.
This is exactly what appreciation looks like. They literally named multiple BLACK ICONIC WOMEN and said that is who inspires them. You've gotta be all the way plugged in, to be naming some of the artists and those songs.
These girls are picking songs as if they're in their late 20s or 30s 😭 So proud of XGALX for exposing XG to these Era of musicality and developing XG's musical taste. Girls with old souls ♥
Fr I’m 23 and I don’t even know much of these songs
It's because japanese people love rnb
Just from the way they sang Frank Ocean's Solo instead of the default Jennie solo shows that this group is a totally different breed!
That shows nothing but they are following the western trend the same with their music
And some people try to accuse them of cultural appropriation, look at their inspiration. I love them.
is the new "WOKE" generation here in the US.
Xg and alphaz are ready to slap them!
@@ChRisu_OjisanI don't think is the "woke" generation. IMO, I think it's just mostly online trolls trying to get attention.
@@Ocean722 I read this somewhere and I agree with you: "The loudest people from any fandom usually only care about CA, if it’s a chance to attack other groups. I’m all for educating idols in a respectful way, but honestly, stan twitter is turning cultural appropriation into a baseball bat to hit anyone they don’t like."
Just shows none of those ca complainers have watched a single piece of nonperformance XG content.
XG is a real one. Their inspirations from Lauryn Hill to TLC to Destiny's Child and Aaliyah are legit!
It goes to show that the musical taste of these girls are just out of this world. It's not just a concept to them, the love for R&B and Hiphop just flows through their veins.
Thank you ELLE for showcasing the girls.
XG is a great group. They’re certainly underrated. They’re more into R&B than your standard pop music. Seems like they all had fun in this.
Their music library is very impressive. Love how it’s being showcased here.
Harvey’s hair makes her look so elegant, love it. All the girls fit are A1 as usual. Thanks for doing this Elle
These girls are so talented!!!! And honestly they have it all to be one of the greatest musical acts in the world.
What they know about Big KRIT????? These ladies are on something special, they are next level!
slayed this game ... we knew that 🐺, this girls taste and knowledge in music is huge, they are true lovers of music 😍😍
Their real score was like 21, or 22 out of 15. They offered multiple songs on multiple occasions! Give them some Bonus points! They deserve it! Ride or Die Alphaz! Into the Galaxy, you know the Vibe!
ikr!
XGは本当に音楽が大好きなんだね 特に90，2000年代の懐かしいR&B, Hiphop, Popへの愛がすごい💖
XG is like a dance crew who can also sing ! ❤ lets go XG to the galaxy and beyond !
THEY SLAYED AGAIN AND AGAIN 😭😭💓💓💓
I love how they mention their inspirations in every opportunity they get xD you can see that their taste in music is top tier
their taste of music 🔥
I can’t choose my bias they’re all shining🥹
don't choose just loved all of them lol 🥰
Our 7 aces 😊
fr, been struggling to choose a bias for the last couple months XD I just can't
Harvey, Hinata, Juria and Cocona are so quiet but adorable! 🥰Don't worry, I re-watch this video 4 times just for each of my back row princesses.
I really like Maya's behavior, she is a bright future idol she always looks like a confident mature girl
THE HARMONY IS LIKE 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Yeah take my money and give me all that records and merch! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
These girls must have a great playlist
They really have a diverse music palette
Their references are so refreshing! I love how they all know the songs too. It shows that they’re on the same page musically and as a group. XG is the future! 💙
Respect for that music knowledge. They live and breathe music!!
they easily answered all in a few seconds. Of course you can see how talented they are, their taste in music is different, I hope they can be recognized internationally ❤
These girls are so talented, and so WISE. Their music knowledge is INSANE. And, at the same time, they are BEAUTIFUL human beings. They’re pretty, kind, and can literally pull out ANY LOOK. THOSE HAIRSTYLES ROCK!!!
this was so refreshing, THE GIRLS KNOW THEYR MUSIC🫡
Such an international group!!
Rapping to Big K.R.I.T. wasn't on my bingo card. These girls know hip hop for sure!
XG's musical taste is EXQUISITE ✨
I guess nobody in this group can’t sing. They all look confident in their singing, everyone start singing when they know the songs. I know it should be normal but you don’t know how many idols who aren’t comfortable singing live unless they are the main vocals in their groups.
Can or can't sing? 🤔
@@Ocean722 Nobody can’t sing = Everybody CAN sing… Right?? 😅
歌い出したら誰かが絶対指パッチン始めてリズムにのりながら歌い出すの本当に音楽が好きなんだなって感じ🥹💕🤲🏻
最高です✨✨
seriously....this group of ladies are just so freaking talented and individually they are amazing, but as a group it is literally just a matter of time til they are global IMO love them!
I'm so proud of them ong 😭 they are gradually getting recognized and they deserve every bit of their fame, xg is the new top girl group 😌
They slayed this and proved that their concept is not just a concept. Congrats girls!👏
their range in their taste in music is amazing but their mention of Hannah Montana was iconic lmaooo 😂 maya wasn’t kidding when she said she wanted to be a Disney channel star
As a black 18 yr old I'll never get tired listening with XG they all amazing and have better lives
Their taste in r&b and hip hop is immaculate 🥹💖
what i love is that they SING… the harmonisation.. the talent just splurting from this video alone… theyre so talented
This was too short!! I could watch them play this for hours hahaha. They’re so cute and talented 🥰
As someone who is POC these is astounding.💙 There’s no cultural appropriation with these girls, THEY ARE VERY EDUCATED! Not just in music but you can tell they are educated all around on the culture that influenced some of their musical taste.
This is actually the most interesting song association ever
music taste is on point, can't wait for their next comeback, hoping it's a mini album!!!
Dang. XG's vocal is on another level
XG knows Big KRIT??? I knew I loved them for a reason!
2:21 They performed Just stand up😭 at south by southwest in Sydney
😩💕💕💕
😂❤
❤❤❤
the way maya makes me draw my whole attention to her because she's soooo smiley and so happy and enjoying this so much!
Song Association is such an easy game for them lol they didn't even had a hard time thinking what song to sing for each word. XG really are different breed.
I love how they included artists from all different genres. Shows how diverse they are. I hope y’all listen to XG, they’re incredible.
It's amazing that just by hearing one word, the song comes to mind and be able to sing it. You can see the love they have for music.🎤🎶👏🏻
they harmonize so effortlessly
Wooow, these girls are amazing. Their music knowledge is very wide, this is the group that is worth stanning. Talents, looks, swag and knowledge they all have them.
they sing SO beautifully together omg
I already know they have gorgeous voices but I swear every time I see a new video I'm surprised once again with just HOW beautiful
Yeah this is officially the Avengers of female music groups.
so XG is basically a global group and im so grateful i found them, their music knowledge is somehow so impressive!
I knew they would get all 15 before i even started the video lol! XG are certified music lovers.
I loooove how theyre not just pop influenced but are such rnb and hiphop girls through and through
My girls really killing the game right now. I really love that we get to see more of their personalities in how they interact and move.
When it comes to their talent and charisma, there is no need to doubt it, hands down, but what I admire the most about them is they were all born in 2000s but they all know Hip Hop and R&B songs of the 80s-90s era, their music knowledge is amazing and respect to all of them, XG is the best.
my beyhive sisterssss, omg I can't believe they mentioned Just Stand Up! they were babies when that song came out and that was such an iconic moment for pop culture. I love these girls so much. Also Big Krit??? Yeah, I want to hang out with them lol.
Maya is such a fluent she is amazing
You can tell they're really rounded. talented XG
bro their song choices goes deep.
their answer were as unique as they are as a group. really interesting and entertaining to watch that. they slayed!
don't wanna compare but aside from Blackpink this was the first time again I heard a kpop/jpop group who has indepth knowledge of musicality when it comes to western music
blackpink went 13 out of 15 when they played the game in Elle
@@HipHopLucky7 I wouldn't say that. I like blackpink and I'm sure they don't hate each other.
XG - hesono O! They are connected like an umbilical chord! DNA level to RnB and each other! And they love ALPHAZ!😂❤
Every time these girls don't dissapoint to impress us with their interest in various music genres! That's the feature of a true artist. As expected of our educated queens XG 👏
girls I fall in love so hard with them since I heard their collaboration for Valorant - Undefeated
Yay!! Welcome to the fandom🥰
I did not know this group exists until today. My bias is Cocona based on dancing and precision and no extra movements.
Lauryn hill, tlc, Destiny's child and alliyah? Y'all!! 🥺 this is our group right here
👀XG DESTROYED THIS GAME! This is why I stan them! From the songs they listen to, you can tell the type of group they are. 😍
SiaのAlive、XTRA XTRAでも出てきたよね😭
練習生時代からの努力の積み重ねが曲のストックに反映されてるの泣ける😭
Just listened to them today and they’re already my fave girl group along with newjeans. Both of them serve different audiences for sure and im living for it
thanks ELLE for featuring XG! they are truly extraordinary
15/15!! Thank you for inviting XG! Please invite them again in the future!
Im buzzing out how they were playing song association in korea and now they’re officially on ELLE playing the same game 🎉🎉🎉 I cant wait for there next comeback singles and mini album
They’re so adorable 😭💜
These girls know their music
3:30 🐝🐝🐝
XG are hiphop/rnb oriented and they actually listen to these types of music ! I have to stan.👌🏼
THEIR MUSIC TASTE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
we love a diverse palette 🤌🏻
You can really hear the R&B influence in their music and it shows in the songs they listed
PERFECT VOICE, PERFECT TASTE, PERFECT STYLING, PERFECT SCORE FOR EVERYTHING
MY GIRLS I'M SO PROUD OF THEM
XG is such a warm welcome to the scene. They’ve grown so much on me.
Their English is improving so quickly 👏👏
This just tells me how genuine they are in their inspirations from rnb and I love it😭🤭
