I like the way you guys think about the the shooting star in the dark. They’ve gotten a lot of hate in Korea where they are currently promoting. Lots of haters be going to their live shows sabotaging and booing them. But, everything is better now. Since this comeback, many fans have come to support them. You guys should check out the b-side of this song. It’s called Left Right

imo XG and their team are pioneer and tough fighter in the industry to confirm true diversity so that it's obvious to getting hates and hard diffending stuff will going on for a while because of our ignorance. i've a kinda expecting that their success gonna show us how inclusion has to be like. making a wish upon a shooting star💫　peace✌️

Ex-AVEX CEO Max Matsuura gave the middle finger to the Korean ppl, so the fallout among them is understandable. It's one of the most egregious PR flops I've seen in recent memory. You're sending a majority Japanese group to promote in South Korea and you go flapping your mouth about how you're only using Korean companies to further your company's interests. XG could've had a much warmer reception at first, but their producer had to make it even more of an uphill climb for them than it should've been.

@@dani_phantom1701 Unlike Japanese market which focus on the domestic market, the Korean market is so small so many k pop artists also aim the global market as well, and the song is musically a hip hop R&B mixed with 90s J pop vibes and beat anyway. But yea I agree, whatever the genre people may decide on, we just know that they are just doing great music which we have been waiting for a long time. Koreans know that too and that's why they are being this salty

@@nicholaslouie7590 I definitely don't think 3rd gen is a stretch since most 3rd gen groups only excel at one or two things (dance, vocals, stage presence or rap). However xg really is an all-rounder, and their talent is actually a lot more than a lot of current artists. Also please remember said SOME and not all 3rd gen😅

I love that you caught the message of the song. It's really flying over people's heads how inspiring and motivational in they are spilling their all into a career that they are not sure what will happen. But I support XG, so thank you guys for the reaction, man. Bless yall.

Your British accents make it a lil bit more elegant

To give a bit of background - These girls are all Japanese, with a half korean japanese ceo Simon Jakops, who used to be an idol himself - they are under the AVEX label umbrella, as a subset label known XGALX. There's been alot of controversy over their group because they chose to not label themselves as Kpop or Jpop. They grew up with a lot of western RNB and Hip Hop from the early 90s and 2000s, thats why they chose to go this direction. "I think a part of it is that the kind of fusion of hip hop and pop that’s such a big part of kpop is less common in Japan - the country has a great hip hop scene, but it’s more it’s own thing and has less of an influence on mainstream pop music. So young musically talented girls who love hip hop, but are more drawn to the glamour of a pop star career than the rap underground, will obviously see a lot more opportunity in Korea, where rappers are integral parts of pop groups, compared to the domestic music industry." - quoted from Reddit Now looking at K-pop- English language songs or hip hop heavy songs are not favored by native Korean masses and marketing as a K-pop group wholly would force a certain definition unto this group and have them compete against industry standard groups. Being Japanese, singing in English, and hip hop, that’s like the K-pop anti trifecta, because if we look at groups who heavily cater to western music - Black Pink, and specially Lisa - Stan’s debate if her music is or isn’t K-pop, and its hard for idols to gain a following if they dont fit a certain mold. XG in another world would debut as a K-pop group, but instead the label is using the reach K-pop currently has to a global audience and using that to get the girls into a more global market. The K-pop industry heavily relies on physical album sales and local tours and shows , CF etc to gauge popularity and power, western pop doesn’t use physical sales albums as much, we stream more than anything, and we don’t have the same structure as K-pop, thus I kinda see why the ceo and label want to go to a hybrid monetization model based on both K-pop and western models, as long as the girls gain more popularity online and get more streams etc that’s the goal, to make them of a more online accessible group than anything, but this has caused some rifts between K-pop Stans and global Stans and Japanese stans, but we are here for the music and the journey not the politics. Also their music video draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese culture - Mario Kart Star, Sonic rings, Hello Kitty, Sailor Moon / Mahou Shojo sequence,The clothes they were are very popular in certain Japanese circles, and their lyrics are meant to have a message, to inspire the listener, and dont forget the Kawaii cutesy theme, if youve listened to Kyary pamyu Pamyu or the recent Wedensday Campanella - Edison you will see it.

Each memeber of XG has a dance video I don't think you ready for all the dance moves these girls have !!!!

What I like about xg Is that they're really authentic it seems like they're really happy with the music that they are currently making it really seems like they really are feeling what they're doing and not being forced to do certain things and having an actual agenda put on them it seems like they really know what they're doing and what I like about them also is that they aren't afraid to put in that girly energy but that masculine energy at the same time They're just swaggy they just know what they're doing. They really remind me of early 2000 black girl groups Like RnB-type thing..but more futuristic. I'm really exited to see them do more

It's a nice change in genre, I love all forms of music but don't care for the politics. Good music is good music.

I think out of all the reactions I've watched, it's my first time to hear and see that interpretation of this song. Thank you so much for liking XG.

XG the flyest female crew on the planet. These ladies can do it all they are ultra-talented and so different from everyone else. Swag, charisma, humility and beauty. The b-side track to this is called "Left Right" and has a HEAVY 90s R&B vibe it is FIRE you need to check that one out. Even Jackson Wang said on 88rising "XG is the Future"

For me "Left Right" was a big big drop for XG, I just fell in love with it the first time I heard it and that's a rarity, I think you should hear it too, Guys ✨.

you should check out xg’s bside “left right”! It’s from the same album & it’s really good too

I really like your interpretation about the shooting stars in the dark part. Very insightful! I hope they're gonna receive the world recognition they deserve cuz their talant CANNOT be wasted in the dark!! Arigato from Japan

XG got 7 members. The XYPHER y'all saw were the rapper squad Cocona, Maya, Harvey and Jurin. The other 3 girls (Hinata, Chisa and Juria) are the vocalists, but they ALL CAN SING. ALL ARE TOO DAMN TALENTED.

XGのreactionありがとうございます💜☺️楽しく見させて貰いました‼️

Damn 😢new group to Stan 💅🏽

It’s ironic because I discovered this song today too. I was listening to my regular playlist on Spotify and this song came up randomly. I really love their vocals in this song and the music production. Reminds me a little bit of Destiny Rogers.

I.m glad you liked the song. XG is a global hip-hop and R&B group from Japan🇯🇵💘 soooooooo dope！💖💖💖💖💖

Amazing break down! You guys also, have positive energy! XGs organic growth is paying off. These girls deserve world wide recognition. 🤙

IM SO HAPPY YALL ARE REACTING TO THIS

XG❤❤❤

I’ve always loved XG since they made their debut, and I’m so happy to see them getting the recognition they deserve. These girls are Jpop, but they’re promoting in Korea while all their songs are in English. Hope you guys react to Left & Right.

That intro alone had me subbed, didnt even need to watch the whole video, but I did, go Alphaz, go XG!

Their first two songs, tippy toes and mascara WERE CRAZY and a lot of KPOP fans knew about it. Their xypher BLEW UP though and even locals knew of them by then and then they release this BOP like I’ll die

YESSIRRRR XGGG

They had 5 years of training prior to their debut. I love that they're not Kpop, they use the system of Kpop but they are ther own thing and true to themselves. You can't put them in a box. They powerful, young and cute but not the lolita kind.

I love the ✨ stars in the dark analysis! XG coming up! React to their Left Right live performance too!!!!

あなた達のリアクション最高！ XG最高🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Thank y’all for this reaction!! Awesome stuff

Ooh you guys should watch their official dance routine or performance on this song

BTBT ft Soulja Boy is a MUST !!! Love y’all glad 💕🫶

Great reaction! You are the 1st out of all the reactions I've listened to that actually understood or at least elaborated on the message of the song. These girls are amazing and I'm so glad to see people begin to notice them, can't wait to see these girls continue to grow and reach an even larger audience! For another side of them their dance videos are fire too!!!

The movie production company’s logo you were thinking of was Paramount Pictures. Thank you for this reaction. XG is on the rise but they’re still not being recognised for the stars that they are 💙

While they r defs new to debut they been killing it so consistently defs agree the cypher and this has sky rocketed their viewing with socials. And they had no really controversies or anything with debut song plus both debut and mascara were consistently good and they have just built onto that so well. Even their predebut content is fire their dance videos they did one for each member to show what styles of dance they like cocona is dope. And they also have a predebut with just harvy and jurin under chill bill remix. The five years they were training defs paid off!

You guys are funny looking for COCONA.She's at 1:01 😂

React to Left Right by XG!! PLS 💛

Haters gonna hate, XG gonna slay

Tippy Toes and Marcara are they’re MV’s as well 😊😊

I love yall !!! You got the meaning and everything so right❤ they get a lot of hate in Korea where they basically practice and promote because they are technically “not kpop” but they are working hard to prove themselves! They dont play and they never give up. Those are my girls!

omg yes exactly when pelumi said bts positivity i agree bcs frr that's why i love this grp even more its df and i love it even if its in eng i am supporting them their vibes are very nice and its my type too

Please also react to XG left right it’s so fire I think you guys would like it 🔥

I’ve never been this early. EVER.😟

The stars going around the mountain is from Paramount Pictures.

thank you❤❤❤ XG❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Technically they are “new”, they only have like 4 songs. They’re a Japanese group based in Korea but are not kpop, they’re going for the Global group name,they’ve also been training since 2017!!

jurin: first girl that sang (who went last in the rap for xypher) maya: glow in dark ponytails ( went second in rap for xypher) and cocona/harvey sang right after maya did in the song :) (cocona first to rap in xypher and harvey was third to rap in it)

Bruhh the reaction to their Left and Right performance is a NEED

i love it how confused you guys are, and that's how genuine of a reaction this is because literally no research done beforehand and it doesn't always mean a bad thing, because they are so good making you think that they are "new" and not known to the mass.

LOVED your reactions!! Great job guys!!💜

👀👀💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 lol I'm waiting for yall to watch their left right performance

Love the message you gave to the viewer. Never give up on dreams. And i haven't seen reaction like you guys. At first you guys got confused because it's different style from gayz xypher but ended up vibing with the song made me happy 👍 I'll recommend you to watch their LEFT RIGHT performance video.

omg thank you for this one i actually love xg after bts they are something df and are japenese i should say you should check out left right too and mascara they are bop !!

BRO I GOT THAT FEELIN TOO! THEY ABOUT TO ROCK THIS SHIT UP!

although this group is new these girls been trying to make it in the industry whether its as trainees, acting etc.

The stars around the mountain is Paramount lmao

XG- LEFT RIGHT REACTION NEXT PLS

MY BOYS. the girl with the backup/car rear view finder was Maya (2nd girl from xypher). The first rapper/chorus girl was Jurin the last girl on the cypher so y’all were right. Cocona had the long black hair with green dye. And Harvey well you got Harvey (the singing girl from xypher) wrong but she only had three lines or something Fr so can’t blame u

you guys should react to mascara by XG

You should react to Bi Btbt Performance please love you guys🥺

Loved that you caught the meaning of their song. They survived being whittled down from dozens of girls, 5 years of intense training, all their teen years. Is their talent and their hard work enough? And this song is saying they have what it takes, and they’re already on their way to superstardom.

new jeans XG le sserafim and g-idle are my only hope for 4th gen k-pop groups 🤣 in regards to how good their songs are

Yall should react to tippy toes or mascara

I was also surprised when I saw that Cocona sang, it also makes it more beautiful than I expected 💜

The company you talking about with the stars is Paramount Pictures

I love that you all love them too!!

3:08 lmaooo im dying that was an amazing observation I would've never noticed

6:52 PARAMOUNT PICTURES!!! That's the one!!

Love your reaction guys!

Love your reactions! Thank you

Your reaction is one of the best I saw for Shooting Star 😍. Yes, this song / MV is fire 🔥, but very few people have caught that this is a very "motivational" song, and I agree.

ayoo i'm super early

They really like it, and I love it

Y'all should definitely check out their other songs (Left Right, Mascara, Tippy Toes) and then they have some other stuff like the Xypher, my current fave is Maya and Harvey's Two Tens!
