Jurin is basically addressing the haters in the k-pop community. Her theme is being the CEO so basically she is Simon in this video. Simon calls their sound x-pop partially because he doesn't want to be limited to k-pop but also I think he knew they wouldn't be accepted by a lot of k-pop fan bases

Jurin is the master of the doubles and triples. She's a mad scheme master, references inside references and call backs with few spit and word play. She likes to say that she doesn't lead her girls but gets lit with them, but Alphaz knows why she's the leader of the group. IMO she is hot in the traditional sense and will always be my bias.
@nicolebatista94166 ай бұрын
Jurin is the leader of XG. The hard act to follow line was also great because on tape 2 she was the last one to rap, and now her her tape 4 was the last one to be released, so everybody thought they were done. Then two days later they released the Trampoline song with the 4 rappers, surprising everybody.

@@FaceFamous Both Wagyu and Kobe beef are known for their exceptional marbling and flavor. But Kobe beef is generally considered to be of even higher quality due to its exclusivity and strict production standards. Kobe beef comes from a specific strain of Wagyu cattle in Hyogo Prefecture, while Wagyu beef can come from different Japanese breeds.

If you’re interested, you should check out the color coded lyrics for Tape #2, so you can catch the trilingual bars. For Tape #1, there is also no captions, so you’d have to check out those lyrics separately too; that one is only a bilingual rap, in English and Japanese.

One thing I don’t think anyone has mentioned is the last two lines referencing rare”wit” and graduated “wit”. There’s a reason she says it like that. Jurin has that “rare” wit not many have. And her level of “wit” has graduated and is high enough to have a pedigree.

Thanks for all the breakdowns, I’m learning from you! Also, I believe you mentioned BTS in one of your other XG videos, that they disappeared or you just don’t hear much about them anymore. The reason is most likely due to the fact that most of them are completing their mandatory military service right now. They have a lot of stuff prepared to release while they are gone but it don’t think it’s reaching the western market as much unless you’re a dedicated fan looking for it.

There is a Korean rapper from way back named Perry. He came out with "Storm" where a very very young rapper made his entrance but Perry went silent after the release of "Storm". Long story but I suspect Perry is involved with a lot of the lyrical outlines cause I see middle finger to the Korean censorship bureau in the lyrics. That's why XGALX is Japan based so the SK censors can't touch the lyrics nor the beat nor the gear.
