KPOP NEWBIE listens to NEXZ (넥스지) FOR THE FIRST TIME | "Miracle" and "Ride the Vibe"

ok so I think this group is a japenese/korean group, and they HAVE to be a newly formed group because I think one of the songs I reacted to in this video must be their debut song.
do y'all got any thoughts on this group? any fans who can educate me about them a little bit more? would love to hear from you guys!
any recommendations are welcome.
thanks for any and all support :)

tbh i also got into them cause of 3racha as judges at their finale and i just binge watched the whole NIZI Project 2 i was not disappointed! they are all really good tho like they have improved a LOT and some of them have been dancing for a long time so they are just SOO good they have some performances in thier yt channel overall this seems like a pretty good rookie group to me! cant wait for their future releases!

I haven't really gotten fully into NEXZ yet, but I did thoroughly watching their forming of show 'NIZI Project 2' where they audition, get criticism, and are formed etc. I actually started watching b/c I know Changbin and Lee Know are in some of their 'behind' shows and 3RACHA are guest judges towards the end. I really enjoyed the show and haven't watched everything yet, but the music itself hasn't quite resonated with me yet. If I had a bias, it would be Yu and Tomoya. They're just very, very solid performers (from the little I've seen)

NEXZ is a 7 member Japanese/Global group under JYP and Sony Music, so they are Stray Kids juniors, basically haha Age range is from 19 to 16 years old. All members are Japanese except So Geon, who is Korean. Korean debut was May 20, 2024, and Japanese debut will be, i think, in August 2024. Fandom name is NEX2Y (NEXT TO YOU). The only song left to listen from them is Starlight, but you can do their dance covers with Kristin Dodgen that made them really popular.

two separate debuts?? i didn't know that was a thing! that fandom name is SO good, yo! thank you for the comment and recommendations :)

Ok, NEXZ (stands for next generation, they are mainly Japanese and Z sounds like ge in Japanese) They debuted with Ride the vibe and Miracle is a pre-debut track, there are 7 members and the oldest is Yu, who was born in 2005, (he was the one you thought was the oldest around 6 minutes in) Tomoya is the leader (hes the one in the middle at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="385">6:25</a>/<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="406">6:46</a>, he was born in January 2006) Haru (dance leader, <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="335">5:35</a> , he was born a few days after Tomoya) So Geon (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="379">6:19</a> he was born in September 2006) Seita (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="437">7:17</a> hes a rapper and was born November 2006) Hyui (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="426">7:06</a> hes a rapper he was born May 2007) last member is Yuki (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="366">6:06</a> hes the youngest born in September 2007) Personally I agree that i prefer Miracle to ride the vibe, but i prefer the Japanese version, since that was the one they performed on Nizi project season 2. Also, a performance video is just more dancing than a regular MV, and occasionally they will put of performance videos instead of MVs, such as Victory Song by stray kids that has a performance video instead of an MV. Also i only got the times from miracle since i've rarely watched the ride the vibe MV just listening occasionally instead. I've tried to double check as I'm writing so hopefully it's all accurate since I follow the group but not as much as I follow SKZ or Ateez

Next is a 7 member Japanese boy group under JYP Entertainment, there's 6 Japanese and 1 Korean. These guys are a rookie group formed from a survival show, NIZI project season 2, they debuted on May 20th 2024. Their ages are from 2005-2007 you can say they are like Stray Kids little brothers. There's a song called starlight and which I think you should check out and the amazing short dance choreography that they do which are made by different choreographers, they are such good dancers especially for a rookie group from a Survival show. I love your videos btw.❤

Any plans to react to other JYP groups like TWICE, ITZY, NMIXX, VCHA, etc? They are all girl groups btw. I can't wait to see you react to girl groups.

[@hunterashley-musicreact]

i will be checking out girl groups EVENTUALLY!! for now, i'm already overwhelmed by the boy groups so imma dig deeper into the ones i've checked out here, and once i've gotten my fill, then i'll be adding in more groups/artists!! there's just sooooo much to kpop, lots of things to consume 🤣
