Yeah it’s by far my favorite of hers so far. It’s a matter of taste but I like the chill vibe.

i actually love this comeback better than dumb dumb.( Dumb Dumb's chorus and dance will forever be iconic tho) Like you said the chanting is awesome and adds such a perfect vibe to it. Also at 3:34 is a reference to Jennies Solo. they are such great friends and i think it was cool that she did that.

Try listening to Anymore. It's also in her album and it's full english.

It leans to western type of music, it don't have sick transitions or insane beat drop but I could listen to this song a thousand times because its so catchy and a head banger. But the structure of the song reminds me of old kpop songs that literally start the chorus at the beginning of the song that stucks in your head for months.

Bekuh BOOM composed and also wrote Birthday. PinkSweats also composed and wrote “Anymore” one of her Bside and it has a Taylor Swift vibe. Since you like “Outta My Head” then you’ll mostly like “Watermelon” both are written and composed by SOMI and a touch of 24. Perhaps you can do a XOXO album review? 🤩

im actually loving the genre somi's pursuing in this entire album. her color as a solo artist really screams her creativity and personality. i grew up listening to a lot of western pop and this just made me reminisce of the songs i sang growing up. somi mixing kpop and western music is something i'll always enjoy.

the MV really looks like the cuter version of Rihanna's Bitch Better Have My Money. The Very Very Very high kick during the first verse and Jennie's "bichi naneun solo" callbacks were really cute too.

This is exactly what I was thinking when I first saw it. The Riri and Jennie thing omg.

The ex boyfriend was the same guy she was smitten with in Dumb Dumb.

outta my head is composed and written by somi herself. As well as watermelon which is part of the album.

SOMI IS ONE OF THE BEST SOLOIST,

This is her first title song that I like on the first listen. Tho at first I was like, ehh too slow..? but before I knew it, I was jamming to it & it stuck lol. Song is chill yet a total bop, the length is just enough, not too short, not too long so that's good in my book, tho the creative side inside of me is questioning the opening scene so much because you know the golden rule for writers, "show, don't tell". Maybe they deliberately did it to stand out, but eh idk lol.

Visually this is very much “Birds of Prey”. Felt like an obvious reference to me. Loved it 🙌🏻

how can reviewers miss the “Bichi naneun solo” reference

This comeback is really my type of music, and Im really happy she took it this way. B-sides are also amazing, you should definitely check it out

SHE WAS BORN TO BE A SOLOIST,

I feel like this song is very nostalgic, at the same time can be sung by both boy groups and girl groups, especially winner, very gender fluid song and I love it, have to say one of my favourite song from Somi!

I CLICKED SO FAST SEEING THE NOTIFICATION

I'm literally having a concert in my room whenever this and Anymore plays

Yeah, the song is not a 4 minute song. Its actually a 3:20 song, The blacklabel could never give somi a 4 minute song lol😭💀

This is so amazing, I love it so much!

such a classic yg sound for a vocal powered track though. speaking of, it wouldn't surprise me if 3:34 was a reference to jennie's "solo"

This song literally into my fav song all time at first listen , such a good beat damnn I likeeee itt

All the songs in the album is fire!

I really love the chill vibe to this comeback :-)

I love her anymore song. Its my fav song of her

Jeon Somi ❤

Something I've been wanting in a new KPOP music video is the storytelling! Liked the continuation of Dumb Dumb, now XOXO, and now the third MV....what next haha.

FINALLY

I really loved her album, every is song is a bop especially this title track. let's support this comeback guys to give the album the love it deservess

SOMI QUEEN❤❤

My favourite reaction channel

Outta my head was a song she wrote. Watermelon on this album is also written by her and has been pretty highly anticipated by the fans as she’s been teasing it for the last 2 years. I’ll be interested what you think of it. This definitely leaned western pop but I still love it. My prediction from your dumb dumb video, that western debut is eminent still stands, especially after this album. You’ll see why when you do your listening party. Interscope promoted this album on their channels and Spotify took out a huge ad in Times Square for her. I wouldn’t be surprised if by January/February she’s releasing a full English single.

Ah yes

Watermelon is sooo good too!

Yeeess

❤️❤️❤️

2:09 bro the nod to Somi's Taekwondo skills reminded me of Sixteen

넘 재밋네요 ㅎㅎ

Spoiling us tonight. 🥺😎👏🏾

Watermelon and outta my head are so good

If you loved outta my head i wonder how you'd enjoy her song watermelon!! You mighy get a feel of the kind of music she leans towards writing/producing 😊

the MV reminded me of the purge movie series with all the masks and spray paint

You should react anymore... It's so good

There were so many nods to Blackpink and even one to ITZY. Exhibit A.) Somi destroying the windshield of the car with a sledgehammer. Lisa did this to a car in ‘Lovesick Girls’ as well. Exhibit B.) The desert car chase. This scene is very similar to Itzy’s ‘Not Shy’. The car is nearly the same, and the way it’s shot is very similar, too. It makes sense that she nods to ITZY, as she was supposed to be a member of the group but dropped from the lineup last minute. Exhibit C.) Somi and her friends walking towards the overturned car. This nods to ‘Stay’ by Blackpink just before we see the four girls on top of the overturned bus. Exhibit D.) The scene of Somi fighting with her ex while he’s tied to the chair. This scene gives me the same vibes as when Rosé was fighting with the boy in ‘Lovesick Girls’. Exhibit D.) Somi standing on the car. Jennie did this in her ‘Solo’ music video. Actually, there are a lot of similar themes between ‘Solo’ and ‘XOXO’. Exhibit E.) The use of Jennie’s lyrics and choreography. Somi uses the choreography and lyrics to nod to her unnie, but also is trying to tell a story of how she finally became okay with being single. Exhibit F.) The exploding house. Somi accidentally blows up the house and garage, but the way it’s shot and the outfit that Somi’s wearing reminds me of when the car blows up in Rosé’s ‘On the Ground’. Thanks for listening/reading my little analysis here.

Honestly Birthday was the only song i really liked from her, i feel like she’s missing something and idk what it is but dumb dumb and xoxo especially leave a lot to be desired for me. She looks absolutely gorgeous each comeback though.

Outta my head is written and produced by Somi herself

12:30 Same, actually would have preferred out to my head for her debut but get whey they didn't lol.

XOXO IS INDEED IS A REBELLIOUS ANTHEM ✨

XOXO, in my opinion, is her best title track!!

the solo dance

24 is Teddy's right hand man. Producer for almost all of Somi's stuff. Worked on a lot of Blackpink as well as stuff like Gashina by Sunmi

Please check out PIXY's "Bewitched" (Eng. ver.) mv. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.

this song give me 88rising type of song. i love it.

I’d like to hear your thoughts on her other songs in the album. My personal favorite is Anymore.

Maybe you could check out her MV for Anymore 🥰

The pre-chorus is battling with Savege's pre-chorus for Pre-Chorus of the year ⚡

She's proven that she doesn't need to fit the generic model of having to be something or look a certain way to be successful in the world of Kpop. Paramount Music produced a mixed girl group that consisted of almost all its members being biracial. They didn't have alot of success but they did make an impact on me because no other company was producing groups that had a minority member count of biracial members. They were Chocolat. & since then debuting someone like Somi prior to Vernon, Huening Kai & bahiyyih was questionable since the KPOP category barely included Japanese, Chinese and Thai ethnicities let alone the artist's that were mixed. Somi epitomizes that there shouldn't be stereotypes for talent regardless of where the talent originated but by its true potential.✊

This mv is my first exposure to her. I’m western and prefer stronger (harder?) music. I’m trying to find gg where I like more than one song.

Most songs are about love, money or being intimate. Persons have just found several ways to present that in order to appeal to the general public.

the dog mask is a reference to the lyrics. the original lyrics says "don't call me a bitch, your new girl is the bitch." as we know, bitch refers to a female dog who chases male dogs first so they posed the boy as a dog bcs he treats his girl as a bitch. so smart 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

She has the star quality, but the yg sound makes her releases quite predictable
