In the end, they all sound pretty much the same with a slight difference between Jennie and Asa from the others. The unfortunate aspect of this situation is that if they continue this style, they'll likely face constant comparisons throughout their careers to those who came before them, which is sad.

I must admit, I had expectations for BM as a rap line If I remember things correctly, we’ve seen self written stuff from both Ruka and Asa throughout their predebut show and that made me hope for them to be the ones to break the curse of YG GG rappers not writing on their own songs. I guess you could say that we’ve seen the same thing before, both 2NE1 and BLACKPINK were confirmed to be taught how to write during their predebut days, but I still had some hopes for the BM girls to be a different case Now that we’ve seen what we’ve seen I have only 2 thoughts in my mind: 1) Is it just a one time thing? Will Asa or maybe even Ruka and Ahyeon write on their future projects? Is it just them playing it safe for now? 2) If the first question is not true then what personal vendetta does YG have against their own female rappers? Or maybe not even rappers, just GG idols I remember checking out for myself, out of pure curiosity how did 2NE1 stand in terms of writing back in their YG days and it wasn’t all rainbows and flowers either. If I remember correctly, CL is the only member of the group that got credits on their group stuff and even she got to write something only towards the end. If I’m not mistaken, her only 2NE1 credits come from their last 2 projects: Crush and Goodbye You would think that such a legendary figure when it comes to rapping among female idols would have written a lot more of her stuff for the group that was her main thing, but apparently not. It took her leaving YG to be more free regarding what she wants to do as an artist Even Jennie, an idol that has been accused of hating her job for years seems to be restricted by the company that should only push her further towards self development We do know for a fact that both she and Rosé worked with Ryan Tedder on multiple song in LA for their sophomore album, but as we all know - None of those ended on Born Pink The only one that we’ve got to hear is The Girls and that was just a random song thrown into their game as a sort of commercial 🙈 Other than that, not that long ago she ended up releasing a song with Matt Champion which she has credits on and apparently was recorded over 3 years ago 😬 I guess only her solo comeback will actually confirm to which extent she is interested in writing, but it feels like she might just be another case of a GG idol held back by YG entertainment And now, 3rd GG in a row from YG, with at least one idol capable of writing not bad stuff at all and she gets crumbs on her debut project It’s just sad. I really wonder what YG ent management have in their minds The funniest thing about this whole issue for me is that all three girls, the main rappers of their respective groups, based on the stuff they were allowed to showcase so far, write lyrically much better verses than whatever YG gave them 🙈

It's so evident that YG Yang Hyun Suk is restricting the creativity of the artist now that he has placed himself back as "main producer" and taken control of the music making, A&R etc. This was never like this with any of the YG boy groups, plus even with 2NE1 and Blackpink I think it still wasn't as disappointing, at least we didn't get the shxtty lame lyrics as bad as now......

Great points. I understand for the buisness side to be "very safe" and not alound some much creativity in this 1st album. But the execess of uniformity in vocal delivery and raps I am feeling is a trend in gg. As someone the enjoy covers there are songs that dont loose much interest while being performed by only 1 singer vs a group, because the original dosent accent individuality. Black pink songs with all their flaws still have each performer their flavour , i hardly have to search for line distribuiton compilation to know who is singing what. Not only in the raps but all the other tracks are "safe", the" like that" song was very desapointing and dosnt feel much in line with the group comcept as powerfull teens. Lets hope for the next album to have more personality, and not be just yg sounding.

5.20 Here's the damn issue. We KNOW Asa is an excellent lyricist because she demonstrated her writing skills on the show. AND yes, she wrote her own raps in her second and third languages (Korean, English)--which is admirable. YGE has a problem with allowing talented women to do as they please--unlike male idols under their label. CL spoke about it, Blackpink talked about wanting to be more involved in the writing process, but little has been done to change things at YGE. ALSO the "standard" style of rap being taught to the female idols at YG is just a derivative of the original style CL developed. I'm not up for arguing with anyone trying to defend this because I recall with crystal clarity K-media discussing her extremely unique pronunciation and delivery, which has now been adopted into YGE, albeit idol-friendly. CL was the one who forced her mixtape into YG's hand. That was HER style of rapping. It was NOT taught to her. YG wasn't the same idol agency back in 2006-2007 as it is now. Every rapper who'd debuted under YGE at that point came in with their own distinct style or was urged to develop their own. It was very much after 2NE1 that all this bullshit started.

I disagree with your first argument point. if you watch any of the Final Evaluation Clips. When ever YG made a ranking of the girls, it was always Vocals on top, while the rappers took the last two spots, and when Ahyeon added raps to her song, she also fell to #4 of 7. And for the last Solo song choice, She choose DJ Khalid - I Did It and YG told her to change the song. Which is why she ended up singing Dangerously by Charlie Puth. but to say YG does not appreciate the rapper, No, I am not saying this, he needs the rappers to pull off the YG sound. But if you want KPOP rap to be taken more seriously, you need to eliminate the KPOP. as there have been Rap heavy groups in the past, I want to say YG was in a group himself, Seo Taiji and the Boys. This is not the direction YG pushed BabyMonster. I always saw BabyMonster as Baby being they are young, and Monster being they are crazy talented vocalist. the rappers also, but he was not pushing the rappers initially for BabyMonster. It has always been about the vocals. They could pull off what Young Posse is doing, all rap songs, but I do not see YG doing this for BabyMonster until later in there career, maybe 3-5 years from now, we may get one or two songs as a sub-unit. but we did get 45 seconds of rap in a 2:50 length song, that is the longest rapping for a YG girl group.

Best I can tell, the rap is a classic “we are YG” and shared lyrics arrival rap. There’s a lot of YG references, especially BIGBANG and namely from Fantastic Baby. Taeyang: Just jump to the sound of your heart ... Face the sky and put your two hands up, up high ASA: Your heartbeat is like pump pump pop ... Put ‘em up to the sky, high high high high TOP: From one to ten, everything is on on top Ruka: I hit a home run and my next is to the top Ahyeon: Not 5 or 7, I’m 10 out of 10 Taeyang: Just go crazy and rave BIGBANG: Dance. Wanna dance dance dance dance Ahyeon: Just dance to the music ... And go crazy. The “Pedal to the metal” line is of course both BLACKPINK and TREASURE lyrics. And GD is the only idol I’m aware of who actually owns and uses a Rolls Royce. And of course it definitely wouldn’t be a YG title song M/V without some car references for coolness factor and YG style. I also thought Ruka had a bit of a CL edge in her styling. Given the “rum pump pump pump” lyrics, I think it was deliberate. Point being, I don’t think Asa’s rap was as meaningless as it seems. I think it was at least triple meaning intended. The references, the simple fun of the onomatopoeia and the monster/spooky theme of it. Whether that makes it worse or better for you or just reinforces your YG rapper reincarnation point, I don’t know but I do think there was thought-out meaning to it. And importantly, on surface I think it was supposed to be for a younger audience. I appreciate your point of female rappers compared to the guys. YG gets so much basic and predictable hate and rarely do people seem to share the valid criticisms I think they are worthy of, but the YG Family thing being too much on the side of patriarchal is one serious criticism I have. And YG comparing BABYMONSTER members with his own daughters made me both reassured that he would recognise their age and protect them, but also worried he’d do the fatherly overprotection thing and treat them differently, as it’s been before. Overall I don’t have a settled opinion on this yet. Because on the one hand, yeah, I think it’s an issue and I’d like it to change. (I want YG to have more female producers. I don’t know what gender ratio they had in their huge hiring recently, but I think they need some female executive producers with real power for decision-making who can work with members. Female mentorship would also make such a difference.) But on the other hand... these may sound like excuses but I think there’s a lot of specifics about the BABYMONSTER situation that makes me okay with the more basic and slow take on things. Their ages, the fact that this is at a time of a YG rebuilding of basic foundation and not risks, that it’s a debut album/song and that means “we are YG” style and no YG idol group had that much control on their debuts if at all, that they are still an idol group, (really hope YG signs or creates non-idol rappers. That variation helps) that as they get used to the unique reality of YG most loved and most hated, YG itself can take a lot of that hate because it’s not the members work yet. I do think that stuff matters. And currently that stuff is influencing my overall opinion more. And the lack of contribution included early on isn’t limited to the GG. Yoshi mentioned that Stupid was the first of his songs to be chosen for release for a couple of years. But it does seem like YG is trusting TREASURE more and more, so I hope for the same for BABYMONSTER. What I’m looking forward to is BABYMONSTER and TREASURE rap units collabs and solos. I think that’s an obvious thing to do and I think it will help them grow and allow for much more individual expression rather than representing the group, which will always be different. It’s also what will really decide my opinion on how YG is actually treating them. Something I do take issue with in this general discourse is it feels like just debuted BABYMONSTER is being compared to peak YG groups. The amount of times I’ve seen variations of ‘they can’t fill the BLACKPINK void’ or ‘they’re not unique like BIGBANG’ is driving me crazy. Like, you think? They just debuted. How is that the standard? I’m okay with the debut album. And honestly, I enjoyed it. Sheesh is totally stuck in my head. I’d rather they take their time and enjoy every level of what’s possible for them than be the most they can be right now. And especially because of their age, I think being held back is better than being pushed. I think it will be at least a year before we see how it’s really going. Hopefully we see some kind of behind the scenes during that time, like them working on songs, to show which direction it’s going in. But I would argue there is enough progression from YG to say that something has changed enough to give me hope. This came out on time as promised, all members were there and YG seemed to protect them on the run up to it, there was improvement and the song was different enough from total YG, they’ve hired a whole new bunch of people and they’re auditioning, and they put out a rough schedule for their working artists. That might all sound trivial, basic stuff but to a YG fan, it’s obvious YG is clearly trying, and I’ll take that until I see something that truly undermines it all. (Super long post, sorry. I have thoughts of this lol.)

I think YG realized they hit the spot with blackpink because they could focus on managing just 4 people and they could all stand out as a result. on the other hand, they grossly mismanaged ikon who only had 7 members, and idek what's going on with treasure. tbh i want to see yg finally close down because their legacy keeps attracting hopeful trainees even though they're terrible talent managers, the company is full of shit and it's basically a weed dealing ring. but man, I also feel sorry for babymonster.

I honestly feel like YG the person and YG the company don’t respect their female idols the way they do their male idols. They literally don’t ALLOW them to write their own stuff. They don’t allow them to have their own sound. They don’t respect and acknowledge the talent of these women and that they can write and create their own styles (and I mean from 2NE1 to Blackpink to Babymonsyer). It’s a damn shame

I am not a company Stan at all. YG shows us all of the member's potential by releasing a hundred episodes of pre debut content (ASA literally showed a few of her self written rap verses), and let me tell you they HAVE SO MUCH POTENTIAL. they do all that just to give us something that doesn't seem authentic to them. I understand the whole monster concept but I think it could have been done better. I agree with some of your points, not all. I think the best thing this company can do after showing us all the pre debut content is letting these girls write on their songs. im not saying they have to write the whole thing from start to finish, but let them be more involved. but it's YG we're talking about, they didn't do that for BLACKPINK who is their current biggest artist, much less can be expected for their new rookie group. I feel like I should say a positive thing now so I personally like LIKE THAT more than SHEESH and I don't care that it's an English song. I love music no matter the genre. I love Kpop, pop, latin pop, country, r&b, gospel, trap, reggaeton, hip hop, rock, pop punk, pop rock, jazz, classical, you name it.

Been watching & listening to kpop for a LONG time, the first mv I ever watched was Call Me Baby by EXO, the first group I got into was BIGBANG, and I started to fall into the YG world with 2NE1, IKON, and then BLACKPINK's debut in 2016. YG songs and rap have always been the things that drew me in, and while it is energetic and I love all the members from these groups, the level of rap could be better ESPECIALLY considering the talent level of all their rappers from Lisa to Asa.

The raps were beyond disappointing, and I feel so bad for the girls having to rap them. But the worse for me is that I could hear the voices of the Blackpink members in the song, YGE is just trying to perpetuate their formula with Baby Monster and for them as artists and a group that is worse than execution. How can they create their sound if they are forced to replicate someone else's? I really hope that YGE will wake up and allow the girls more creative liberty at the very least, they have so much to show us, and not knowing when they could do so is so sad to me.

I don't think baby monster will gain global success and thats very important now in k pop if they keep on making the same "formula", the whole point of making an artist is for it to yes be great like everyone else but different at the same time.... but then again there are a lot of boy groups companies that fail their main rapper. Rap can be a big thing in k pop and honestly I'm not sure about in the Asian countries but in the U.S. we value rap more I think, YG has been doing this for years I am super disappointed because I use to be a JYP and YG fan now I just like old YG and JYP then SM......

YG is not doing right by Babymonster at all. Their sound production is tired and uninspiring, they aren't being marketed well, and they just aren't delivering on what they promised. They were supposed to literally be monster rookies, but they won't give them work that lets them shine. Young Posse has fulfilled the spirit of old YG groups. They have that 2nd gen swag and actually have skill in rapping, they work their asses off on stage, and it's clear they care about making their songs their own!! They work with real hip hop and rap talent that wants to really represent these genres. Their actions are speaking for themselves--all five can rap and are pretty good at it, they have time and potential to continue improving. Babymonster is probably being creatively stifled by YG, it's like they've been wheeled out to try to mitigate potential losses from all the BP members solo contracts leaving YG.

You’re so mad for no reason! Asa and Ruka should write their raps because that’s you get successful, you don’t get successful by your company writing crap raps for you. But when did opinions mean controversy. You don’t like his opinion then why are you here. First of all: YG has always been terrible at managing, writing and everything for his groups. It’s no secret that he copied his older groups for new ones. There isn’t more to what meets the eye, if you think this then you’re not in kpop much. YG SAID in the past, baby monsters purpose is to surpass and be the successor of black pink. Second of all: I don’t know why you’re making so much stuff or coming up with the crucified stuff. Don’t make up things, you live in a fantasy world. Batter up was okay, it was bad, you know why, YG HAS ONE SOUND BLACKPINK. You may not think it’s not bad but don’t come after people who think it is. Thirdly: How can ASA feel it?: Her job is too debut, how can she feel it bad when she definitely is happy with it because they debuted. YG isn’t doing what he thinks is right, he’s ruining them by making them a blackpink copy. You said back off but he’s a kpop channel so how can back off when he does a lot with kpop. Frankly, if you don’t like you can back off because it is his opinion and a lot of people watch it and like his kpop videos and live streams. “It doesn’t matter what you think”, you do know people debate about kpop a lot, people have opinions on things in kpop, how is string up anything when he’s very knowledgeable in music and wants to share his opinion. Also just like you, you’re saying your opinion and it doesn’t matter what you think either.

no the royalties are split between the producers so it doesn't change what goes to the company, it would just mean one producer who is writing the rap currently is getting less and it'd be going to a member. really its only a benefit to let them write if they are up to scratch because you can promote the artistry of the music and production much like cube does with idle/soyeon and also your idols are wealthier which always looks good from a pr perspective.
