The way that the WE GO video is touching that subject of daydreaming of traveling and going on an adventure while we're in isolation/staying at home, and how we use digital means to at least try and escape into another place...in the most FUN! (wink wink) and perfect way. I love these girls

dddddd I really cannot be bothered, I knew y’all would hate it the minute I listened to it but I kinda just want to enjoy it today.
Y’all do you though.

SM giving aespa a Fast & Furious song is serving YG managing BLACKPINK levels of shady.
Fromis_9 on the other hand... Girls, you've done it again. Now that iz*one became iz*gone I guess I can finally stan Jang Gyuri full time.

Well, I guess Forever is still aespa’s best song dddd. Why does SM hate these girls?
fromis_9 ate and Rocket Punch was cute for a taste.

Now wait a hot minute - I just heard Next Level and it's a BOP. That pulsating bass? That dry aggressive beat? They decided they are coming for the XCX YYY plink plonk girls. It's frustrating because it's not an original song, and the source they went to look for it is extremely questionable. But I'm bopping! And contrary to most, I really don't like that disjointed middle 8. It's giving me debut album Mamamoo, it's giving me Moonbyul live @ SM Café and I'm not here for it. As we got this song + that long-ass video about their lore, I can only wonder if this isn't just the beginning for a more convoluted phase for them. Maybe SM wants to release some more viral-attempt moments before heading onto a proper mini. All in all this is a lot better than Black Mamba, which falls in the same "produced with instruments provided by Fisher Price" category as Mafia (In The Morning) to me. This one has a soul, a pulse, color on the skin.
The only thing that I absolutely loathe about this release is that Mr. Lee Soo Man could have picked THIS from the same franchise soundtrack. A lost opportunity.
I'll be playing Airplane Mode, We Go, Ring Ring and Ride all day long.

I got chewed out by sis and SM continue to do the girls dirty. Next Level starts out with potential but then goes nowhere. It's unfortunate because the girls are obviously talented.
Fromis 9 did the deed. WE GO is such a great breezy track showcasing the best of the girls. Can't wait to listen the mini.

Rocket Punch knocked it out the fucking park with their single, video and album. They've really hit their stride and I think they could be huge if they continue up this trajectory.
Ring Ring is brilliant but Ride is an absolute serve. I kinda wish that was the single instead, but I guess it's good to continue their trend of having one (1) absolutely incredible song tucked away on their albums.
I'll get around to the other girls at some point but this is gonna be a tough act to follow.

I don't hate Next Level? Like at all.
I actually find it extremely not terrible.
Not to say that my girls fromis_9 didn't knock it right out of the park.
But I'm going back to Next Level some. More than some.
