Hello! A little info on XG for you. XG is a 7 member GLOBAL girl group. They are all Japanese, but their company is based in Korea. They promote like K-Pop groups, but they are NOT K-pop. All their songs are in completely English, except some of their Cyphers. They can rap/sing in English, Japanese, and Korean. 4 main rappers and 3 vocalist but as time passes with each new release, it's 7 all rounders now haha If you would like to react to more please react to their XG Tapes. There's no one like them out in the music scene right now. Thank you for your reaction 😊

[@shaunh9831]

To your point, “why do they sound like this?” - these girls are GREAT performers but they didn’t write their bars. That was done for them by a Korean American rapper-producer out of LA called Chancellor, JAKOPS, the duo out of NYC from Virginia called YOX and producer Shinatro Yasuda who produced Ariana Grande, The Weeknd and others. So all that urban swagger was written for them. Still, to their credit, they can spit it.

I'm as old school hip hop as it gets. I love these girls. They got a old school feel to a lot of their stuff. Hip hop, RB, pop. They can do damn near any genre. They listen to music. They know artists from different eras and they love 90s and 2k stuff. You'll see a lot of their stuff has that flavor sprinkled with a little new XG spice. The rappers are elite spitters. And you haven't heard them sing. The vocals are world class. Dig in to these girls. They're really good and '24 is going to be the year they blow globally. Nice reaction ✌🏾

[@monstafloppa871]

That's the thing bro', the one who cut her hair of is Cocona. She has been rapping since she was in 3rd grade. Japan has a thriving hip hop scene with some of the hardest hitting rappers in the world. Plus they spit high speed. Check out some of the documentaries on these guys. They are very good at what they do. The rap schemes can be complex and they would be able to keep up with anything coming out over here in the U.S. I don't say this lightly because I cut my teeth on rap growing up in NYC.

[@TheHekateris]

Appreciated your comments here. I’m not well-versed in hip-hop or rap. That said, I have always been into mainstream r&b, and a few rappers (primarily Doom and Kweli tbh). Folks around me were more into specific rock-related genres. I wish I had been exposed to more hip-hop and rap tho, because I gravitate towards these sounds a lot. Plus I have a lot of respect for lyricism that is more clever and/or complex, whether or not I enjoy the music itself.

I've watched over 50 reactions to this song. You my friend are an expert in this field. You actually pause and evaluate the lyrics, flow, hooks, bars. These are Japanese girls that had to learn English and execute the rap like an American rapper (This is hard in all levels). The Video Production, Beat and lyrics were produced by south Korean artists. This is why this MV is on a level of its own. All the other reactions only have rudimental emotional facial reactions. No ability to articulate what they are feeling.

[@H8tfulJay]

Much love and respect to you!!!

[@firavun8943]

Hi mate, glad you reacted to our girls. You can open the subtitles if it is hard to understand what they are saying, English is their 3rd language. Let me provide a little bit of info for you and your followers. This is a 7-member Japanese global girl group ( 4 rappers and 3 vocalists but they all can do it all ). They operate in both Korea and Japan but they are not a K-pop group, they almost always sing in English. They can speak Japanese, Korean and English and English is their 3rd language. They mostly do Rap and R&B stuff but they are really versatile, you will see all kinds of songs from them. These girls have bars actually. COWBOY REACTS has a 35-minute breakdown video on this song and has another 1-hour video of him breaking down GALZ XYPHER which is the rap song XG blew up :D Other reactors have breakdowns of their other rap songs, especially the TAPE's which they use the beats of "known" songs and sing their own lyrics. They pay homage to OG's and show respect all the time. They have tons of references etc. They are basically a shape-shifting alien wolf pack from another galaxy and they have a lore. The eye thing was always prominent in XG music videos. You can see them keep changing and evolving etc. If you watch all their music videos in order you'll see the through line. "Tippy Toes" shows a little bit of their wolf shape & powers. "Mascara" shows a bit of their body adaptability. "Shooting Star" tells the story of them wanting to shoot off into the Stars to achieve their dreams "Left Right" shows them travelling across the galaxies. "HESONOO&X-GENE" is them awakening from hibernation before reaching Earth. "GRL GVNG" is XG's arrival on Earth. "TGIF" is their evolution commencing on the planet. "New Dance" is them exploring their new environments ETC. ETC. WOKE UP is kinda like them taking over or getting ready to take over. Their different songs/MV's represent different ERA's of their arrival to Earth ( not Earth per se but planets in general I assume ) and taking over. You can check the zoomed-in eye shots in these MV's and see the differences. They used those eye thingies in other songs like Shooting Star as well. I am not 100% sure what eye represents but my interpretation is that it shows their evolution or it basically shows they are aliens in a cool and visually pleasing way. I am sure they have a more detailed lore but we as the fans don't know much details yet. They also have tons of references and easter eggs in the videos. For example, in the first Maya verse, it is like a court scene and Maya says "I'm the judge and jury" and she is addressing the "haters". There are people around in wolf-heads who are the witnesses ( which are the fans - their fandom name is Alphaz, WE are the witnesses ) and a guy is being judged with the upper half of his head missing. He represents the haters so they are no-brain, only talk. Also, you can see there is a building at the start and at the end and, a guy approaches it. He is the CEO of XG's label. Basically, he is XG's boss, but in the video, he is their commander. So while Maya taking the haters to the court, the other girls are coming in from the multiverse to attack the haters' """"head-quarters"""". You can see in the end it is in the shape of a head. It also blows up, so it means they take down the haters but it can also mean, after you finish watching the video, your minds are blown. EXTRA : Cocona shaving her head can be interpreted in multiple ways. Saying F U to the beauty standards of the industry? Also, XG got some shade because of their outfits, hair styles, lyrics etc. ( Coco had braids for a lil while, so basically saying here, I cut all off, what now ? ) saying that they appropriate black culture ( they actually don't, they love the culture and they pay homage all the time. They don't pretend, they grew up with those songs, and their inspirations are the biggest old-school R&B, hip-hop, and rap artists mostly from the USA, they sing their songs, they use their beats, they shoutout and everything ) also, it appears she already did that when she was younger and wanted to do it again. The label didn't want her to until now since it fits the concept and MV so she did it in this MV. That can mean a lot of things but it's a bold move either way and it is fun, it is swaggy and it suits her personality. She is one of the swaggiest , coolest people I have ever seen. She is so badass. Example of Cocona and Maya rap at the age of 13 from their documentaries; kzbin.info177boFdwO6c

[@meleeee720]

They’re not hard to understand. Although English is their 3rd language they perfected their English when rapping or singing. That was uncalled for.

[@firavun8943]

@@meleeee720 Not everyone is a native English speaker or has the same level of proficiency. Also, everyone has different accents. So, subtitles always help. I've seen many reactors miss some bars which is normal if you don't read the lyrics. My English is really good and I work for a company in London, however, I have a really hard time understanding Brits or even other nationals speak English since everyone has different accents. Stop making everything a big deal.

[@iSmileyPerson]

If you liked this I highly suggest listening to their XG TAPES. XG TAPE #2 is the most popular, it has the 4 rappers of the group in it. The one who shaved her head in this, Cocona, was 16 when they made the tape and she sampled Surround Sound-it’s actually amazing. These girls dedicated years of their life to essentially a “boot camp” where they trained in singing, rap, dance, etc. They’ve studied old school rap, r&b, hip-hop and everything in between; and they’re always giving respect to the ones that came before them. I’d love to see you react! edit: If you do react to the XG tapes, I recommend having the genuis lyrics pulled up in a separate tab- they rap in English, Japanese and Korean but their older tapes don’t have captions.

[@Malin.Multi-Stan]

Fun fact: Cocona (girl who shaved her head) actually shaved all her hair off. While making the scenes she had someone on set who showed her how she should do it. All her members loved the Buzzcut 😍

i really like what you said about how even though the bars aren't necessarily super complex or intricate, it's the delivery that really counts. i honestly didn't expect any of the writing to be remotely good since english integrated into japanese/korean pop (or xg's famous XPOP) is a little bit tricky sometimes. i find that english bars in most of these songs don't always hit the way they're meant to, but every single line hit here. some of them i was genuinely impressed by too. while not all of them were super difficult or creative, it's the way that it's presented. these girls put so much effort into their work and it truly shows.

The cool thing about them is that’s their CEO (Simon) he is also their producer. What makes XG special is that thanks to Simon he has gotten inspiration from hip hop artists and also producers . He even had the chance to colab with black producers from Atlanta and they helped him produce one of XG stars called shooting star.

[@nuggs9999]

Oh that’s how Shooting Star was made. Nice! I love Simon for incorporating the creativity of people outside of Asia.

[@iRocketeeR34]

[@bonnieparker26]

XG fire , on another level Cocona's flow is crazy, Maya and Jurin went crazy🔥

[@rds00799]

This was one of the funniest reviews on this video reaction lol. You looked like you were on a roller coaster being lost, confused, hyped then lost again on this tight video. And once you paused it and said who are these b*****s I knew you were all in on this.

[@7a.87]

“ MAN THIS DUDE BREATHING IN 4K “ hahahahaahah😂😂

[@Thyrwyn]

Lol - and now you know! This 7 women do not play and they do it all!

[@kkumyeoja6837]

This is my fav reaction video of Woke Up so far😂 4:33 was so hilarious for me🤣

[@holyTripleSix]

XG is an R&B group mostly but they can spit

[@deucedaprodeuca]

@4:29 when he stopped bouncing because Cocona stunned him was epic 😂

[@mikyas392]

2:47 it is NOT ride away(3x). she is saying " ...right away, ride the wave , ride away Couse we had the right of way...." it is not simple at all! it is a A triple entendre.

[@rj_lab]

XG is DOPE 🔥💥⚡💪👊👍!

[@chankang3733]

XG is XPop that I punned 30 yrs ago. The way Khiphop should have went. React to Winter Without You next so you can hear their vocal talents...all seven of them.

[@VoodooAlpha-k5d]

XG is so 🔥🔥🔥they are on another level

[@ほしのきらめき]

XGのことを知ってくれてありがと❤ WORLD POP

[@Alabaster88]

First girl in the football helmet got XG in her grill. They crazy with it in so many aspects.

[@tn-t]

Harvey's lyrics are actually: Right away, ride the wavе, ride away 'Cause we had thе right of way. Press the CC button and you'll have the lyrics shown on screen

[@M16-l2m9e]

メイン曲はR&Bやヒップホップだけど、なぜかxgを見たり聞いたりすると、新たなジャンルを発見した気分になります。

[@golden_hour8833]

That's my fav reaction hhahahaha

[@zin9466]

His reactions are so me from the first second to end. 😂😂😂 xg deserves these reactions and appreciation.

[@DeadlyCyanide1]

These bitches are fuckn adorable. Ever since i first heard them like a year ago i love them.

🇯🇵XG🇯🇵 Pride of Japan💖

[@JamesSmith-pl2uc]

Ive been following XG since they were trying out for XG... they are the best upcoming group in the world. like its not even close... its gonna be newjeans and XG at the top always. Or it at least should be. and their new mini album drops in a few days and if you know one thing about XG its that the new stuff is better than the previous. Like they started out so strong with tippy toes and they just kept getting better and better

[@JamesSmith-pl2uc]

And young queen but I act like an unnie is the hardest line... I think alot of people dont know what that means but its so hard.

[@ArchistYT]

XG been standing on business fr 🔥💪

[@insynthesiswithinfiniteis2318]

You would really like XG's song "Left Right"! Also "Shooting Star" is also amazing!

[@butter.peanut]

[@hokechew]

They're fire spitting kaijus.

[@rickrick1356]

XG 🔥🎶🔥

[@Mark-tm4tr]

This was the most enjoyable reaction to xg I’ve seen!! I was just as excited as you were through the whole video!

[@lonniekramlich6241]

7 members, but I have to give you cred for figuring out it was more than one !

[@VyHuynh202177]

You can turn on the caption to see the lyric. Check out XG Left & Right.

[@Affxsone]

YES PLSS. LEFT RIGHT IS A MUSTTTT

[@amazonrocks7349]

The bars are actually pretty complex because there are a lot of references and innuendos throughout with a lot of complex internal and external rhyme schemes. Maybe the overall meaning isn't complex but if you pay attention you'll catch a lot of subtle references.

[@tj-wy7mj]

Ha! Same reaction. It confused me, learned more about them, they are DIFFERENT. Golden era rhymes with beats from the future coming from tiny Asian girls. Wild.

[@ivyfrank92]

“They keep duplicating “! 😂😂😂😂 welcome to the XG world bro, they got banger after banger

[@angelb3339]

XG IS HEAT

[@66slyder]
