Producer Reacts to Red Velvet "Really Bad Boy"

[@Dinomater_]

This is definitely a song that grows on you. I personally like it a lot after listening to it a couple of times. I'm very pleased with how they used the members voices in this song. Especially with Wendy, Seulgi and Yeri

[@GattlingCombo]

Which one is Seulgi

The mv has a lot of inside jokes of the ReveLuv fandom lol: 1) Irene and Yeri are always said to resemble each other so much so that they could be twins. 2) Seulgi's viral ghost walk 3) Joy is really great with animals and also has a cute dog but in the mv, the wolf thing bites her... 4) Seuljoy is now definitely a thing after Bad boy, Cookie Jar and now this song...

RV is one of those unique girl groups that really do need one or more listens to really get into the group. Experimental is a good way of describing their style of music and mv.

[@ur3487]

Pth lol it’s the exact opposite case for me. i fall in love with rv’s songs immediately but with other ggs it usually takes me a few listens 😂 but rv are indeed unique 💖

[@armijojax]

Personally to me what makes a group true "artists" is how experimental they are, versatile, and bold. That's what I love and resonates with me. That's what RV does and why they are the only kpop group I could get into. That's the difference between a legend of timeless music, and groups playing it safe/monotonous for ppl to later lose interest or be forgotten. The way they challenge their creatvity is mindblowingly impressive and refreshing in an industry that celebrates mostly conformity that sells.

Ancor it has nothing to do with “knowing RV changes it up every comeback” and everything to do with personal taste. I’ve been part of this fandom since day 1. I’ve been here for EVERY comeback.

[@lilyla3873]

Yess you're not alone .. I love it when first listen this song >,< I think I'm not normal, because love this song when first time played it..

[@참나무-e9g]

as im korean, when peek a boo or bad boy had been released, many people questioned how it can be a good song because it was too experimental for redvelvet called summer queen. but then people noticed . it is that the Red Velvet's identity. yes. not only popular red side but the other side velvet. i think 'the perfect redvelvet' is Legend of RV history.

[@승민전-s6v]

Makes sense since Red Velvet peaked when Red Flavor was released. I think that's the moment Red Velvet became a household name in Korea. So people were expecting Red Velvet to release songs with a similar vibe to Red Flavor. Notice how Power Up earned them a PAK but not a lot of international fans liked the song. What casual listeners don't know is that Red Velvet is much more than their Red side. So while the Red concepts is a hit with Korean listeners, Velvet is for mostly the international fans/listeners. Reveluvs/fans would be more accepting of both sides even if they have another preference because it's basically what Red Velvet is, versatile and experimental with their music. Maybe that's why RV isn't as popular as other GGs because they don't tend to stick to one concept and it puts people off. Or they don't seem to make music that's currently on trend? How do the public react to RV in Korea about their music and all that?

[@참나무-e9g]

@@승민전-s6v yeah. Twice is one example. twice is the same generation GG with RV , but twice has been adhering the constant concept like catching songs. and they are successful now ,having many Kor or nonKor fans.i think twice's popularity in korea shows you that it is the Korean taste. if i ask americans that what is your fav music genre?, then they maybe answer RnB or band music or something various. however Kpop is idol-centered market structure. when major idol comebacks, you can see all music charts are full of thier album tracks. so because of this kind of idol focused music, RnB or old pop, Indie band music usually can't survive.

The beat and percussion continue through that bridge part, so it seems coherent and consistent to me, not as jarring. Anyway, at first listen I too was put off, but upon multiple listens I like the song. I am really put off by the Halloween theme this close to Christmas. I think you have to listen to the song outside of the music video, you need to listen to it on its own without the music video to really appreciate the song itself. The vocals stand out that way and you really start to hear all the great runs they are doing in the background. So try and listen to it sans video, IMO it's better. The instrumentals are very crisp and fresh in this.

[@anaissinez_]

JusticePlays The reason They dropped the video on November 30th is because Michael Jackson dropped Thriller November 30th

[@JusticeGamingChannel]

@@christiano4267 I don't keep up with Michael Jackson song release dates. In any regard, I don't see what this has to do with Michael Jackson, this is Red Velvet. I stand by my opinion that the Halloween theme feels out of place this close to Christmas, and that puts me off. But outside of the music video, the song is great.

[@kannayoshi9772]

What i like about RBB is even though its title is just basically adding a word to their previous song, it totally sounds different so you can never say this is just another Bad Boy or just Bad Boy 2.0

[@bibi-yy8gq]

The thing about Red Velvet is that they don't give you basic. They don't give you a song you can forget. Even if it is because you adore it or absolutely hate it, it stays with you and eventually, as you understand the way they take on their music is different from everyone in kpop, you end up liking it. Why? Because Red Velvet doesn't make bad songs, only different ones, and you get to realize that with time. Something about the perfect formula and chemistry of putting these five women together in a group makes every song their very own. I can't imagine any other artist performing Really Bad Boy. And at the end of the day, the fact that they end up making me feel this way with every single song of theirs is what really matters. Because in years to come and when people do try to cover their songs, everyone will realize a huge part of the songs being so good was that Red Velvet sang them. THAT is legacy.

SM is all about setting trends through their artist but I've seen them do it *especially* through SNSD, Red Velvet, and NCT. I really enjoy that all their comebacks have different concepts and completely different or new sounds that you think they would never try before or wouldn't really sound good with. But those three groups have always surprised me by taking a song no matter the concept and making it completely their own so that it's still completely different and new but also familiar?

We love a group that gives us something new everytime and has people completely shocked but still has that trademark rv weirdness..ugh The Talent!

If there's anything I've learned from being a Reveluv is that a somewhat large portion of their music is like...SUPER experimental...This song is such a friggin' bop and I'm super happy with it. It's such a connection with Peek-A-Boo, too.

[@mustafak1222]

RV has a knack for having a simple and repetitive chorus but disguising amazing vocals, synergy and instrumentals. Rookie, Power Up, and Dumb Dumb come to mind. The more you hear of them (from being so catchy), the better they get. They're almost unforgettable as they're always in your head. It isn't my favorite song on the album (2nd fav behind So Good) but this song is so upbeat, you can't help but have fun

Im not a huge RV stan tbh I like their title tracks and a few bsides but sometimes I feel like their red songs dont quite fit them (looking at you rap part in power up). They're supppppper vocally driven which is why I instantly loved RBB. Very unique to feature their vocal versatility and the whistles just blew me away like okay go off. The chprus is my favorite part honestly like its so complex each time and nver the same (another thing they tend to pull off well)> I vew their gorup style as more r&b tbh while bops like power up and bad boy can occasionally surface

I actually thought i wouldn't like it as much as i do now. I remember with rookie it definitely took me awhile to like it cause it was so different and red flavour, for some stupid reason i wasn't feeling it at first, but later on became one of my top fave RV tracks but with RBB i instantly loved it even though it's not normally my style of music.

consider the fact that red velvet is my ultimate girl group and i love everything they release, this song took me around 7 listenings, if i remember correctly, to grow from "what is this?" to "it's a bop" This whole album is amazing, definitely my favorite mini by them so far. Soo Good is the best song they have released this year for me. Taste and Butterflies are amazing also.

[@arianathompson7989]

Literally sums up almost everybody’s experience with Rookie. You either stay hating it or listen to enough that it becomes one of your favorite RV songs. Whenever Red Velvet drops a song especially their red side and people say they don’t like it I always ask “how many times did you listen to it”

Thank you. When you listened to it a second time, I remembered why I always look forward to your reviews. This song is too much of a shock to judge on one listen; I particularly love how they flirted with jazz in this release because I haven't heard much of it in K-Pop. I was completely overwhelmed on the first listen, but on the second listen onwards my brain started breaking down each individual element and I haven't been able to stop listening to it since. Some notes: - The Irene & Yeri twin scene is definitely a reference to The Shining, given the cinematography through the corridor which is unique to that. - Try to watch one of their live performances on the music shows. The performances are really impressive. They also have a live performance of one of their B-Sides, Butterflies (which is a more conventional pop song) - I believe the Halloween theme was a slip-up on SM's part (something to do with scheduling their different groups' comebacks). Oh well, if they say it's Halloween go for it lol

What I respect about your reaction video is that you're explaining it with various angles and approach. I'm working in entertainment industry also and I'm really enjoying your video. Yup, RBB is one of RV's experimental-ish MV, but it came out great for me. My favorite would be the bridge part, tho. LOL I have soft spot for that kind of music and shifting style. The choreo is also good, you better watch the live performance! What I'm happy about this MV is that Wendy's great voice is being explored to the max! Yeah, she didn't come out to play with this comeback. And the "SPEED TALKING" thing is so interesting, I tried to listen it again and I understand what you mean about that. Somehow RBB is kinda "EXPERIMENTAL RAP PERFORMANCE" for me. Waiting for more of your reaction videos!

A1 Rizz lmao i can see that. 😂 i just realize R is stand for Red concept

[@user-lj2og9tu5p]

when i listened to this song i remember the first time i heard i got a boy by snsd and dumb dumb. those songs are really fiesty and messy at first but it grows on you! +++ they are all iconic!

[@lloydcebreros4202]

The one who made the scream is 'Irene' XD

[@verideesquo]

Everything what u said is what i was thinking, so glad that someone has the same thoughts with me about RV and this mv

[@timothyford1103]

Perfect for long-distance driving playlist - just like Rookie. Vocals are essentially part of the rhythm section and create an insane forward momentum. If SM could learn to read the calendar, RBB would have drawn more buzz released in October, since the Halloween references were obvious. While Peek A Boo had a scary-creepy theme, it did not directly tie in to Halloween so its (November?) release was no big deal. When you literally spell out “howloween” in your mv, why miss the date?

[@celine7557]

lmao this was also my reaction to power up, the day they released it i was like "wtf is this" then a few days later i was like singing "Ba-banana ba-ba-banana-nana" out of nowhere.

[@ThatsMe1010]

Just want to add RRB is one of the best songs RV has ever done. It's so catchy and full of energy

[@stephendoe7594]

Was I the only one who got a "Thriller" vibe from the MV? I mean it wouldn't be the first time RV referenced Micheal Jackson. Doesn't matter, love this whole album. Sassy Me found its way instantaneously into my top 5 RV songs, though RBB did take a couple listens to really appreciate. I think that's one of the great things about RV, multiple listens are rewarded with new discoveries, which is the mark of great music in my humble opinion. Reveluv for life yo!

I FELT THE SAME WAY. I HAD TO LISTEN TO IT 5 TIMES AND NOW I LOVE IT TY PDNIM MWAH

[@qwinncisnake]

I loved really bad boy from the jump but i definitely get why people would not like it. It was really repetitive but I think that its still good. For me, I love brass horns in pop songs as long as its not overwhelming. I love Halloween so much I was actually really happy that it was Halloween themed, even if it really didn't make sense. I love all of these outfits though and how they all had their horror trope part. Can we talk about Joy for a second tho??? Yeri is my bias but phew Joy was wrecking my shit. I loved everything about her in this video, especially all of her outfits. Specifically, I'm super whipped for her sparkly outfit with the gloves. Red Velvet really brings the gay outta me tbh like wow. I was really sad when I saw that Joy didn't wear those sparkly pants on stage; they switched them out for some velvet ones. smh hopefully in a future stage they'll give her pants back.

[@Alexa-cr1vy]

Listen to the entire album !! So Good is sooo good, just like Sassy Me and Taste. I really loved how they utilized Wendy's and Seulgi's voices too. Also, the harmonies are insane throughout the song. BTW: the jump rope move is new and is not sampled in their other dances.

[@becalmhyejin]

I really appreciate how honest you are because I experienced the same thing with this song.

[@itsfine_txt]

I know the thing with Red Velvet title tracks and how it usually takes time to like them, but I just think it kinda funny that the first time I heard this chorus, I immediately loved it and decided that it was my favorite RV song. Right now, listening to it properly and hearing their others songs, I still love it.

[@tea6458]

its definitely grown on me after multiple listens

[@orenjiorenji5547]

I've been waiting for this! thank you for reacting and i hope that you'd react more to red velvet :)

[@revels8558]

as someone who considered a hater back then i couldn't help it i fell in love with their songs the (deep cuts) are just another level

[@ameretalley567]

What he said at 9:47 - 10:01 was so true, PD couldn't have said that any better.

[@francialuna3208]

3:20 "Who's belted that note?" It's Irene 🐰

[@shanekewildman6393]

Omgosh, I have been waiting on this.. YESS!

[@AkiRa-vm2nw]

That screams came from the main rapper of the group and that is Bae Joo Hyun

[@patricktongson5363]

I was really waiting for your review and good enough it the same reaction as mine hahaha

[@raqueleverduin7838]

PD! Are you going to do a listening party of Red Velvet’s new album? It’s very good

[@DatVideoDoe]

I think that this song is their Velvet side with a splash of Red

[@wizardhitmin]

Who's here after his upload of the listening party. Lovin them pigtails ;)

[@dominicsimonacfan541]

Whenever my fav comeback, i wait for your reaction pdnim!!

[@val-kq1og]

please listen to the rest of the album too though!! the second title track (butterflies) is so good and my personal favorite (sassy me) is everything i love about their velvet side

[@catalinarose3306]

I actually really adore this CB! I love Irene. I love Red Velvet i stand my Goddessesssssss

[@yesuui]

Same I was so confused at first. Buh the more you listen to it, it gets better. 😂❤️

[@carlaojeda2104]

I like to watch your video because you go more in depth and talk about the music video and music! And I came here to understand RRB better and understand how I feel about this song
