extra 🤴🏻 ? yeah right... 🤡

[@edwardk8477]

I think besides the range, ningning has some rather complex (in the context of kpop) riffs and runs

[@eternaldandaniexol]

I agree, I think everything she put out after Forever has been nice and I would like to hear how she does them all live

[@el.c.8858]

i still feel like we haven’t seen enough of their full potential considering they’re the most popular 4th gen gg, hopeful we get more content

[@summernight2752]

Wow so the vocal range in this song is G3-F5 right? And Ningning hit both of the lowest and highest notes, she is really amazing

[@eternaldandaniexol]

Ningning actually had F#3s and I think they were nice but I didn't count them because I wasn't sure if she was singing or rapping them (cause it was on Giselle's 2nd verse located after the first post chorus sksksk)

[@Linaffsultra]

Actually she had D3 too

[@eternaldandaniexol]

@@Linaffsultra a D3 ? I think you meant her whole vocal range lol anyways update, it wasn't an F#3 and actually an F3, girl is just... 🧍

@@Linaffsultra I see, but I was talking about Illusion specifically here 😅

[@ceci7488]

NingNing hit F5 effortlessly omg

[@alcostfo__5823]

Winter is SOO POWERFUL in A4s and Bb4s, they should mantain her lines in that range until she gets more developed with the 5th octave

[@bruno_malta13]

Winter confirmed that she will gets a lot of high notes, so I don’t expect only this

[@el.c.8858]

i prefer her in the mid-belts tbh

[@JoelYie]

@@bruno_malta13 she will most likely regress

[@theflowofchi]

Thanks for the vid. Suggest you put the text under the corresponding singer.

[@eternaldandaniexol]

thank you, I'll keep that in mind next time 👍✨

[@alwyncanonero1811]

Do you think Karina is a mezzo? Or just a soprano with a sort of darker timbre?

[@shinigagamimi]

karina is a soprano for sure

[@shhsheswyahs755]

she never sounds like a mezzo to me i think all of them are sopranos tho

[@shinigagamimi]

@Luís Felipe all aespa members are sopranos

[@graffinpark3398]

I thought Karina is alto

[@eternaldandaniexol]

Only Giselle was an alto which is a position in a choir while nobody in aespa is a contralto which is a voice type I believe Karina is just a light soprano with a warmer timbre but it's not necessarily dark or darker if you listen to male artists, you can think of her like D.O. compared to Chen as Winter and Ningning

[@galuxistar1615]

That moment when you wanna sing kpop high notes and riffs but you’re an alto so you just sing everything an octave lower can anyone understand my struggle ? 😭😭🥲

[@eternaldandaniexol]

are you sure you are an alto first ? 😭 but I get you 😫

[@sun6212]

can you do a vocal ranking of enhypen if possible?

[@eternaldandaniexol]

still the usual not bad C5s and her light mode

[@crystalaria4840]

@@eternaldandaniexol thanks! and what about the adlibs in the end?

[@eternaldandaniexol]

@@crystalaria4840 I'm kinda thinking the C5s after the D5 are nice but I'm guessing still not enough it at least carries support but not really supported

[@deselysillou1314]

would you say there's still a big enough gap between between winter and karina? i think karina is closer to giselle than she is to winter still tbh

[@eternaldandaniexol]

yeah, also Giselle ain't that bad so she isn't far from Karina Karina and Giselle are pretty much close, both can have better moments than each other, one is fuller, one is cleaner but of course Karina has more better moments than Giselle and that puts her above Winter ranks high on the average chart and even if Karina would make it to average, she's on the lower side or at the very bottom so the gap is still like a whole tier unlike her gap with Giselle that's like 2 to 3 steps back

would like to try the runs in the bridge but my transition to falsetto doesn’t sound that good 😸 (referring to ningning chest - head voice transition)

[@eternaldandaniexol]

you should, I think it's relatively easy because of the transition still being in the small parts but I guess yeah, everyone has different levels of skill and ease knowing you how you sing at least from that one recording (where you sound hot) try to sing the falsetto in a lower octave since you were singing it a whole octave higher than where you sing the chest and mixed voice ^^ if you actually do it already... just good luck lol, just keep trying on singing ✨ be a singerist HAHAHA

@@invitado7268 it's nice but she really needs to work on it, she's too light oftentimes that her head voice kinda get's unclear and would probably be mistaken or just falsetto sometimes for Winter, I don't think so however I believe she has produced head voice or at least falsetto with nice connections in other moments like when they were singing Black Mamba in acapella, she was able to bring connections up to G#5/A5

Can you reply to ma comment telling the rank Kep1er, aespa, gidle and itzy as vocalist? ( depending on support n technique?

I dont really know keep1er sorry but the ranking should be something like: -Ningning -Winter -Karina -Lia/Miyeon/Yuqi -Giselle -Yeji -Minnie -Chaeryong/(Soojin) -Yuna/Soyeon -Ryujin -Shuhua

[@eternaldandaniexol]

Ningning Winter Chaehyun Karina Giselle >=/ Miyeon • Giselle's actually not far off from Karina but she barely has any singing materials so I'll have her here for now Lia >= Yuqi • both of them aren't very consistent with support, the *shallow support* isn't on the better side too, I'm giving Lia the edge since she can stay relaxed most of the time The rest of the vocalists haven't shown any signs of support with a degree of consistency so I'm leaving them out

[@eternaldandaniexol]

@@bhaijit3725 I would argue Giselle is high than the three you mentioned above her kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZnOoGppmLB6r80 0:00 that's quite clean, doesn't sound shallow to me 1:45 even when she's singing light, she carries that support although of course, not as strong as 0:00 but still nice actually this isn't my opinion but rather someone else's but I agree with them so yeah
