Tippy toes released before anti-fragile..

[@migmif]

Actually it released before LE SSERAFIM made a debut with FEARLESS.

[@user-uq6gk6gn9d]

and she can't accept that...

[@hijackpot]

@@user-uq6gk6gn9d yeah lmao why is she mad?

[@drinkwaternotalcohol]

@@user-uq6gk6gn9dshe didn’t accuse XG of copying them. She said “did Hybe see this and say ‘this is nice”. She’s just saying Hybe prolly got inspo from it as a joke.

[@alvi_omi]

​@@user-uq6gk6gn9dshe is lee serrafirm stan

[@carlanicolegracia6451]

The best idol girl group when it comes to dancing. Their rap and vocal line are both great. They're neither kpop nor jpop. They call themselves a global girl group.

[@NJDMashups]

The official MV and live performance of Left Right is really good.

[@NancyGraceville]

Totally agree though that's completely underselling what an absolute masterpiece of art it is.

[@harveythecat]

Anti-fragile has a afro-Latin vibe while Tippy Toes sounds more R&B to me. I agree, the chorus does sound very similar but they are both great songs!

[@chankang3733]

It's worth doing a very deep dive into XG. Your jaw will remain on the floor. XG is the sound I've been waiting for for over 30 yrs now. I'm just shocked at the amount of talent in these very young beautiful ladies. I cannot believe I'm a Gen X ALPHAZ

[@jemphet]

FYI, here's released Date🙂 Tippy Toes : 18th March 2022 Antifragile : 2nd May 2022

[@btsarmybangtan2025]

I looked it up and Antifragile was released October 16, 2022

[@kenishaholder9253]

XG all The members Can speak Japanese, English and Korean

[@Barbz_03]

Since 2017 it has been the 7 of them as well as Hikaru from Kepler.. also the girls are fluent in Korean English and Japanese

[@MrSuperjam789]

They sing in English because that's the language that's most universal(their producer mentioned this). But the girls can speak Japanese, Korean and English to varying degrees. They do promote in Korea. They go on music shows and it's a good strategy since Korean music shows are accessible. They have a small Korean fanbase at the moment. They also get hate in Korea because some Koreans think they're "using" K-pop for their own gain but that's far from the case. They have also done interviews with some US radio shows. The best one to react to is the "Ask Us Anything" video, which is 15 minutes long. You can get an idea of their dynamic and personalities. They also did a video for the React channel that's very funny as well. The reason for the attention is their songs have gone viral in places like TikTok. And you're right, they come off more of a regular girl group than a K-pop one. You should check out their dance, singing and rap covers. The latter of those went viral at the end of the year. Also, their label is XGALX. It's a label underneath Avex, a big Japanese entertainment company. They have no ties to YG.

[@NationalRunescape]

And people need to remember that xg isn't either a jpop or kpop group. They're promoting as a Global Girl Group

[@KRapPsychic]

Avex, the parent to XGALX, does have ties to YGE They are the Japanese market distributor for some YGE groups, going back to Secthkies, 2EN1, etc, and was for Blackpink until BP signed up with Interscope Records a year or two after they debuted, to get better access to the US market. Interecope is a division of Warner Music congolmerate, one of the 3 biggest record labels in the world that control about 67% of the global music industry.

[@MrSuperjam789]

@@KRapPsychic Yes, I'm aware of that but in this case, YG has no ties to XG to XGALX.

[@sanseiryu]

Tippy Toes debuted in March 2022. LE SSERAFIM debuted in May 2022. That would mean Tippy Toes was already written, songs already recorded in studio, choreography already rehearsed, including the Ta Ta Ta intro and the floor work that makes you think of Fearless. The M/V, dance practices filmed and then gone into post production, editing and finalized before the debut. That M/V on top of their pre debut Intro dance solos, song duet cover, two group dance performances. Many probably filmed in late 2021. If you think the intro of Fearless sounds and looks similar to Tippy Toes, you can sub the song Tippy Toes while watching the Fearless M/V and it matches nearly perfectly. Weird yes. When Fearless came out, I immediately thought the reverse. I thought wait, what? Fearless intro looks and sounds like Tippy Toes? Songs are often written long before they make it into the studio. XGs producer Simon Jakops was working on the song Shooting Star in 2019 in Atlanta, Georgia.

[@Ai-to5wq]

XG's label XGALX is a subsidiary of the huge Japanese company avex. In addition to Japanese artists, avex also manages K-pop groups such as EXO, NCT 127, NCTDream, Big Bang, and BLACKPINK in Japan. XG is just a HIPHOP/R&B group. The reason they are promote on Korean music shows is because copyright in Japan is strict and XG debuted as a global group.

[@mamunisahaq6679]

You should react to Left Right MV by XG It's the b-side to Shooting Star

[@drinkwaternotalcohol]

They “blew” up when they went viral for there tape 2 cypher which u should totally watch. I put blew in quotes bc their company is actually a rlly big company and houses very famous Japanese stars. But the cypher got them a lot of attention globally

[@kingbyouchoob2488]

XG IS PURE 🔥🔥🔥

[@samhue4194]

You should react to their Cypher... XG XYPHER #2 with cocona maya harvey jurin

[@carlanicolegracia6451]

Finally!!!! Been waiting for you to react to XG! 😍

[@ariusbudiman7105]

They are from Avex company (Japan) the producer is Simon he is half Japanese-Korean, all the members Japanese and two of them half Japanese-Australian and Japanese-Korean, they are known as International GG that's why their song lyrics mostly in English some mix in Japanese or Korean in rap part.

[@Renzo_]

Their songs are in English. They only sing and rap in Japanese/korean/English on their rap and vocal performances.

[@d_yoongi9353]

Summary of the video: You keep trying to find anything similar to other groups to prove I don't know what. When I see in the title "reaction to xg" I expect you talking about them and not comparing them to everyone else, first lesserafim then the lyrics to another group, and, even if you didn't say it, it was clear that you were disappointed when you found out that their song dropped before the lesserafim's one so you couldn't accuse them of copying. You've been reacting to kpop for a long time, you know how it works, why didn't you, during the video, search some information about them before reacting. This video was disrespect from beginning to end, I don't know why, probably because they're different from the other groups or they're not from a big company. I don't know what excuse you will come up with, but I'm curious.

[@bobservinas1348]

tippy toes was released before LE SSERAFIM EVEN DEBUTED

[@MariaBiancaSupremo]

well, Tippy Toes date release was March 18, 2022. while Antifragile date release was October 17, 2022. so it was almost a 7 months interval. which means, if there's something similarity in this one, we knew who is who is copying here. 🦊

[@natnut2008]

You should watch both the MV and live performance of Left Right. Also XG girls also speak Korean since they trained in S Korea for at least a year already.

[@carlanicolegracia6451]

Please react to their vocal, dance and rap performances if you have spare time. You'll really love them. 😁

[@niam4768]

Yeay welcome to XG world hehe

[@niam4768]

Actually they speak Korean, Japanese, and English in their Vlog contents

[@raeve7468]

oh they not only can actually speak korean, they rap in it too

[@K-Choi]

Imagine the best girl group you could think off, XG is 1000x better than them

[@banyanya595]

this is the most thoughtful reaction video of XG...

[@btsarmybangtan2025]

They are really good. So Tippytoes came out March 18, 2022, and Anti-fragile came out October 16, 2022. I don't think anyone was copying anyone.

[@Renzo_]

XG is a Global Hip hop and R&B group, that's why they sing in English and their music is heavily influenced by Western (mainly American) music. They're Japanese but their producer has said (twice already) that they're not a J-pop or kpop group. They are under XGALX, a subsidiary of Avex, which is the company that trained them from the beginning. All of them can speak Japanese, English and korean, but the only fluent in English is Maya (she attended an international school in Japan). Harvey is half Australian but was born and raised in Japan, she lived in Australia for a while as a child but forgot everything so she is one of the least fluent😅 Here some examples of J-pop songs that are not the usual "kawaii style": E Girls -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYbGgZuEhJuVr6c Faky (Hina and Taki) -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqPHqZavbph9eqM BananaLemon -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaqnpIeVh9WIl8k *dance practice* DAOKO ft 岡村靖幸 -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTPaXuJlNGJfqc Faky -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJfYqIWmdrtknJo *dance practice* Reol -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXXLhmmkjLydl5o E Girls -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6vZiYqtpZdoh80 FEMM -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKjJf4Oqo7Wfaqc

[@ogrefour688]

Left right is my favorite song

[@chankang3733]

And this song uses "it's my party and I can cry if I want to" from the '60s but with a Gen Z twist. I like it.

[@MarkCalica]

Their ages range from 17-21. They are moving on up and they can walk the walk

[@israelperez6848]

Both co writers are american songwriters for tippy toes and mascara..

[@user-fu7de8nh1f]

『LEFT RIGHT(XG SHOOTING STAR LIVE STAGE)』 pleeeeeeeeeeeease next reaction‼︎

[@Henri2Blah]

you gotta react to left right, it's so good

[@chesiresays]

Antifragile is a completely different vibe and genre, it’s reggaetón. Even the producers are latinas.

[@msdanielle2005]

Thanks for the Deep dive. XG is the future. They're singing in English to appeal to a wider audience. They are a global girl group and don't want to be pigeon-holed into J-pop or K-pop just because they're Japanese. BTW, in reference to tippy toes, "church" is slang initially popularized by Snoop Dogg, which means preach or amen. Basically, emphasizes agreement, or you're speaking the truth. In reference to the chorus for mascara, "it's my party I can cry if I want to", is just a sample of a very old song that has been sampled many times. XG has love and affinity for late 90s and early 2000s R&B and Hip Hop music and it's reflected in their songs and even their cyphers.

[@Ryuria]

I love how your reactions are so unfiltered yet not offending

[@chrislambert9903]

Maya is the only one fluent in English but they all gotten better since their debut

[@stanyamane]

Hi! I enjoyed your reaction - I feel like many reactors are just super-positive about everything all the time, whereas I felt like you were really going through the journey of thinking through whether you liked XG and then learning more and more about them throughout the video. I hope you will go back and react to more from them - I think they're a really talented and sweet group, and I've enjoyed their growth over the past year from Tippy Toes through Shooting Star and Left Right. Regarding a mini-album, people are hopeful due to a spoiler from one of the members in a recent interview with Kpop Herald. However, other members quickly jumped in to say it might be just another single ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5bCc4ioe5KSf6c ) In the same interview (at the 1:51 mark), they mention that a documentary about the 5 years before they debuted was filmed. No dates have been released, but the 1 year anniversary of their debut is coming up this Saturday, March 18th, so some people are hoping that might be the release date. I'd love to see you react to the Left Right M/V, and some of the dance practices. They also have a series of videos highlighting different aspects of the team - XG MOVE videos are dance performances, XG VOX videos are covers by the vocal line, and XG TAPE videos are from the rap line that you might enjoy. Cheers!

[@DarkWolf91301]

You should react to their XG Galz Xypher and their Vocal line covers. They are very good

[@alanhoxor]

She just watched the whole thing comparing the girls and their music to others... so annoying...

[@user-uq6gk6gn9d]

surprisingly it was a complaining video instead of reaction video.

[@chaechae3228]

she had nothing but praises for the girls?? at least she speaks her thoughts and points out interesting stuff. Pretty refreshing and new compared to all those reactors faking reactions and just saying "wooo" "so goood". If you don't like it leave lmao

[@user-uq6gk6gn9d]

@@chaechae3228 yea I'll leave thanks. (edit)I watched some reacter saying like " nah I don't like this " or "this is not my taste" and I was totally ok with them. but her reaction was not "nothing but praising" for me and something more worse.

[@msdanielle2005]

​@@user-uq6gk6gn9dright, in some places it seemed like she was being passive aggressive or sneak dissing

[@jessicamdo]

Tippy toes was released on March 18, 2022 even BEFORE Le Sserafim's debut. I really liked your reaction but I think is a little indelicate to keep raising questions (2 or 3 times) about a group (whatever it is) have copied another before you make a research about it 😟 people might believe it

[@Jet.Single]

Why would you insinuate XG copied Le Sserafim when Anti fragile came over half a year after Tippy toes lol shouldn’t it be the other way around?

[@adrleo]

Fun Fact: AntiFragile premiered on OCT 2022, XG's Tippy Toes debut was released on MAR 2022 and they are managed by XGLAX, they don't categorised themselves under the so-called KPOP "framework" coz all their songs are in English. I hoped by now you've dived more into XG on who they are, pretty sure some comments are a tad bit judgemental or stereotyped, especially coming from a self-proclaming KPOP mom 🤣. Anyways thanks for your uploads, music makes peace globally~~!!

[@luisgzv1]

i think antifragile is more inspired in La Rosalia last album, especially Saoko

[@raeve7468]

hybe copied the choreo too in fearless but i love both girlies they dont have anything to do with stuff like this

[@Necroherz]

I think XG is under a mixture Avex (Japan) and YG (S.Korea) as the resulting collab between this two companies and they called that XGALX... Someone correct me if i'm wrong but that is what i did understand

[@msdanielle2005]

They are not under YG at all. Xgalax is Under the Umbrella of Avex

[@Necroherz]

@@msdanielle2005 Both

[@stanpurplekiss8437]

All of them do speak Korean and maya is fluent in English

[@gorillatec_3538]

This whole reaction is cringe.

[@MarkCalica]

I think you should’ve watched Left Right music video before your conclusion. Just saying

[@MrSuperjam789]

To be fair, she reacted to this a couple weeks ago but it just got posted yesterday. That's how her videos usually work.

korea was japan❤ so k pop is part of j pop❤

[@nicestnice]

Tippy toes and anti fragile doesn't sound alike at all.

[@SupongChang-uf7rn]

U don't have any reaction nonsense
