They are announcing with their debut that BABYMONSTER has arrived and it's their turn at bat. Home run time as they swing away and watch it fly ! No sexual undertones, remember how young they are.

Hey Brother. As someone who can't dance as well, or breathe half the time, I don't get how they can do all that intricate dancing and sing/rap as well, at the same time. Cardio is definitely through the roof. I'd need an oxygen tank, on top of my inhaler. Lol. Awesome reaction. It is a bit much to take in. Trying to watch the video and watch the captions to know what they're saying at the same time. But, good music is good music. Doesn't matter what language.

Awesome reaction! Thanks and keep it up! Basically the song is about them being the next one up! This is their debut, watch out for them, they are hungry, they're going a swinging and home runs, and make no mistake, they are taking the baton (from their sister group), there's no stopping them, like a boss. The rise of the monster!

Hey man! Great reaction, as usual! Definite triples there. I hear the sports and sexual innuendos there, but also can hear where they are announcing their arrival on the scene. Art, like your hat, is subjective. People hear what they hear and the artist/label can't control that. I never noticed that about the White Sox logo, that's hilarious. Of course, I'm not from Chicago, so why would I? Keep on keepin' on, my man!

Wtf? They’re literal children. It’s not about sex, it’s about their skills. They’re saying the other groups can’t compare, and beckoning them to try. The youngest one is 13.

This is a BOP and the girls look amazing, great M/V. So happy for the girls. Vocals are amazing, rap line is on fire, visuals are insane, dancing is on point. I know you love Rap, Ruka and Asa absolutely destroyed that rap, they were amazing. But all the girls killed it too. Thanks for your reaction Cliff, I can't get enough of this song.

Everyone takes away something different from what they hear, that’s what makes it art. Personally, it almost seemed like there were some veiled references to domestic violence almost like “just trying would be a mistake, I won’t be the one getting hurt if you do”.

Not too sure about sexual innuendo for a group where majority of members are under 18.

@drewr9118 10 ай бұрын

Dude, almost all the girls in the group are minors. There is no sexual innuendos. Youngest is 14, others15, 16,17, 18 and only one that is 21. Please research a little before reacting to music like that. Wow

Again, with all due respect, sir. No hate to you, but there are no sexual innuendos here. It is just how you perceived the lyrics. 5 of these girls are minors.

“I don’t pretend to be honest. You want me? But look in the mirror”. And dressing them in mini skirts. Nothing sexual being done by YG Entertainment. You’re upset with me because I pointed out the music industry’s tactics for selling records? But yeah, no sexual references or anything at all 😂

@L.U.C.A.006 10 ай бұрын

@CliffBeatsOfficial hmm I don't know about that buddy, I mean ofc you could perceive them lyrics into the lense of sexual innuendos, but remember, this song is literally is their DEBUT song and the whole baseball references in the lyrics are supposed to be taken as metaphorical wordplay, which describing their ways/principals/vision on when they start embarking a career through music/entertainment industry Even the mini skirts in this video doesn't look that improper 😅, but then I guess the standard of mannerism in dressing code could be fairly different for each one of us Also, doesn't matter if some words in the lyrics seems like implying double nor triple entendre, still I don't think any lines in it would leading up into describing somekind of romantic relationship, because again these girls are mostly underage and most of the time they spent years in YG while training their musical skills, not to mention that YG is also always been known for their dating restriction (especially for the trainees) Like if anything, I'd suggest you to take a proper look into all episode of their LAST EVALUATION, where you could get to see the highlights of when they bout to finish off their training program, plus you might wanna take a look into their member's introduction as well, get a good grip of what they've been going through to this day and let see if your initial breakdown still stands the same or not As an addition, you might wanna see a lyrics analysis from a channel named ANDY and JAS, which later on you'll be able to differentiate Korean perspective about BATTER UP lyricism 🤞

@@L.U.C.A.006 I’m honestly not bothered. Again, this is a part of what I do for a living. Fans are just upset that I pointed out something most people missed or are afraid to speak on. They want to protect their precious artists. I understand as a fan, I’d want that too. But if someone comes around and points something out that they are used to seeing/ doing for other artists they become upset? It’s just extremely odd. Again, I’m a big fan of the group. We were all teenagers at one point and we all know exactly how that is. And who do you think their target audience is? It’s pretty easy to put two and two together. I like YG and BABYMONSTER but damn some of these fans are extremely upset because someone pointed out another meaning young teens will also pick up on subliminally. World is too sensitive these days. 🤷‍♂️

@BronxHunter-sr6ve 10 ай бұрын

probably unintentional so I'm not hating but it's just weird how you associated the "sexual innuendos" on the lines sang by literally the youngest member on the group who is only 14 years old. not to mention that almost all of the members are minors with the exception of one member being over 20 years old so I don't think they intended for the song to be sexual in any way.

@@CliffBeatsOfficial anything can be sexual if you make it that way. what we are trying to tell you is that we don't think the company would intentionally let 14-17 year old girls sing about something sexual. music can be interpreted in so many ways and in this case, the line that you quoted from the song which I personally think is not sexual at all if you'll take into consideration the whole context of the song, it can be sexual for you but how you keep pushing it throughout almost the entire video about how it is sexual is honestly very weird especially if we are to assume that you knew these girls are minors when you first listened to the song. Mini skirts are sometimes also used as a uniform in schools. Are we to assume that the school wants to make the students sexual?

@@BronxHunter-sr6ve 1. I didn’t know their ages until people got upset with me and told me. 2. All major labels will do ANYTHING to sell records 3. I’m not pushing anything. I’m stating the obvious from a songwriters perspective who works in the music industry 4. I understand wanting to protect/ defend the artist. I’m not saying anyone did anything wrong. I’m simply explaining what the intentions were behind the lyrics/ MV but people don’t want to hear it. 5. The only ones making things “weird” are those denying the facts that there was a sexual undertone to the song and video. Who do you think the song is targeting? What age group? What demographic? Not sure, I’ll tell you. It’s teenagers. 6. Maybe people want to deny what is right in front of them and I’m ok with that. Do you see me pulling the video down? I did a service exposing the industry and this is the thanks I get? Ironic since I’m a part of it. Happy Holidays 🙏

@@CliffBeatsOfficialok. The truth is I didn't find the insinuations, but it could be that my English is not very good and when translating it into Spanish it may be lost Actually I related everything to baseball. And yes you are the first to make it noticeable from the beginning of the song I have seen reactions from producers, singers, composers and native people from the USA and none of them made this comment

@CliffBeatsOfficial 10 ай бұрын

@@VeronicaSanchez-wj8us because they want as many views and subscribers as possible. I’m here to call out what I see. That was one of the first things I noticed from a business / songwriters perspective. You see this with all artists. Brittney Spears first song at 16 was all about sex and a relationship. It’s not that big of a deal, people just want to proclaim innocence. We all know what it’s like to be a teenager and who is spending money on records/ listening to music the most. That’s our youth. That’s who I’m designed to write to. I’m guilty of doing the exact thing that happened in this video. I guess today’s society hates honesty. Did anyone hear me hit on anyone or say anything out of line? No, because I understand THAT side of music.

1:48 calling it a sexual innuendo is absolutely insane when a 14 year-old girl is singing it

@cacacrumbs 10 ай бұрын

actually the whole outlook on the song is absolutely insane. they are a majority minor group, this song is not no sexual innuendo song. with slight references to baseball in the lyrics and choreography, MY perspective was that “Batter Up” is only yelled when the next batter is up to bat; considering this is their debut and they are next to showcase their talent, they are next up to bat/showcase their skills.

@CliffBeatsOfficial 10 ай бұрын

I don’t know if you’re familiar with baseball but this 100% a double entendre for sports and sexual references. That’s a part of being in a pop group. I’m sure production and group members have a say in writing but this is what we are trained to do. I’m a songwriter for a living. Just a heads up ❤

@cacacrumbs 10 ай бұрын

@@CliffBeatsOfficial It’s most definitely a double entendre for baseball and the release of a new group in the korean entertainment industry, not minors singing about sex. In the first chorus they’re wearing pinstripes like the Yankees. Batter Up because they’re up next, they’re on deck like a batter stepping up to the plate to see if they can knock it out the park with their debut. In Ruka’s rap “Square up I’m going going going (gone),” like squaring up in baseball and knocking it out of the park. “Took over the baton and all set hurry, run, run, run.” They’re taking over the industry now and are warning their competition to get out the way. In Asa’s rap she continues the threat with “Who can stop me… Get out my way.” “Never get tired volume up.” You’ll never get tired of their songs, it’ll always be a banger. “Burn the stage and take everything like a homerun.” is self-explanatory, they’re taking over. There are multiple instances demonstrated that they are referencing baseball in both the lyrics and the choreography, referencing homeruns to showcase in the industry, and Batter Up being both for baseball and they’re turn up on stage. A sexual perspective on this song is absolutely insane, especially when they are 14, 15, 16, 16, 17, 18, and 21. The only instance I can assume similar would be NewJeans Cookie but that one had too obvious sexual innuendos for a song sang by minors.

@@cacacrumbs ok, but you’re cherry picking lyrics. I listened to it one time and caught the doubles. It’s pretty obvious and there’s nothing wrong with it. There was nothing inappropriate but you seem to be offended by it. I’m telling you what I picked up on from one listen as a professional songwriter who was worked on thousands of songs similar to “Batter Up”. Happy Holidays and thank you for your input 🙏 ❤️

@@CliffBeatsOfficial I don't mean to pile on, but just because you're a professional songwriter doesn't mean you can't be wrong. You picked up on the sexual references and never put them into context with the rest of the lyrics. Can they be interpreted that way? Sure, but most lyrics can be interpreted as a sexual innuendo - humans are good at that. As a professional, you should have looked for the context. You didn't.
