XG talks Debut, "Shooting Star", and Reveals Their Favorite Artist Growing Up!

[@C.H.L.L.2012]

If XG, Doja Cat and Kehlani collaborated, it would be a milestone in R&B history.

[@sereneriver]

Kehlani fits their concept more! Doja cat too pop now

[@ministryofvolcano]

Nah!!!

[@DanitheAlpha]

The remix for Left/Right would be crazy with those 3

[@sereneriver]

@@DanitheAlpha i would prefer a Brand new song

[@DanitheAlpha]

@@sereneriver That’d be dope too

[@kathleentorres9996]

Jurin really has that leader vibe on her

the kinda song i would obsess over fr

[@chandailagan8903]

OMG YES PLEASEEEEEE

[@berrynmerry]

im sayyying

[@letsalllovelein]

Right? Especially with a song that sounds like a combo of 'Distraction' and 'LEFT RIGHT.'

[@skypink4404]

Adding maya to this group was an amazing idea Sis has a great English accent and can speak well ! This will help them with their future promotions in the west ☝️

[@yumeshadows]

Some trivia: Maya actually went to international school so she actually is better in English than Japanese! And she helps them practice their english too 🥰

[@davidcm9707]

She is Perfection

[@kimemelda7235]

@@yumeshadows Nah, she's very good in japanese too. She's bilingual (thanks to the international school)

[@yumeshadows]

@@kimemelda7235 not that i'm saying that she's not good, she said she may use some strange japanese sometimes, i think jurin mentioned in one of the blogs about the time they first met

[@bunnniel]

@@kimemelda7235 isn't she fluent in Korean as well?

[@rodrigo9586]

Maya's english is perfect!!!

[@matti-zc3cs]

That's it! The debate is over... XG is not Kpop, Jpop but X-POP!!! That's cool 😎

[@Nothing-ToLose]

That's right, it's over. go to the world XG!!

[@jk31431]

but they are linked to kpop company, trained in Korea by kpop staff, style, dance, MV's all done by kpop staff. basically they are mimicking kpop but they are not technically kpop cause no Korean member and non of their lyrics are in Korean. xpop is a good title for them, the problem comes in when they put their music in kpop genre section to make money or promote as kpop. what most fans want them to do is just say, hey we are not kpop, we are just pop or xpop.

[@TheLouis1973]

Maya has instantly become my bias. Love these girls

1000% yes

[@Renzo_]

I like Maya's English, but I reeeeaaally love to hear them speaking Japanese🤩

[@sereneriver]

The more Maya speaks in interviews the more i get this feeling that her personality and charisma is very similar to aespa Giselle

[@Organized82]

Same here. Makes sense. Both Japanese girls who attended international school in Japan. Their accent and intonation is very American.

[@sereneriver]

@@Organized82 yup

[@zaver4739]

i always thought that!! her actions, expressions, the way she speaks and sometimees the way she smiles reminds me so much of giselle

more live performance for left right. that song is lit!

All the Left Right content is there now, MV, performance, Fancams, etc! They will be in NYC (HITC) in May and Japan (KCON) in May, too! I wouldn't be surprised if they comeback in late April/early May so they can perform new songs to international audiences! XG going all the way!

It always amazes me how soft Jurins voice is. She looks so girl crush and badass

[@kkkk5476]

right! i thought her voice would be deeper hehhe

[@kingbyouchoob2488]

Wow they look amazing here. I'm old skool & i will tell you groups like XG don't come around that often. Their combination of talent, charisma, beauty & swag are second to none since their debut in 2022. Shooting Star is one of the most addictive vibey songs i've heard in a very long time. The XG ladies 100% deserve the props they are getting & seriously should be WAY bigger than they are. Awesome they are getting some love from The Bay.

[@missautonomy8510]

The way XG listens to 90's and 00's Hiphop and R&B, that's why they can sing. Those are the times where artists can sing sing and not rely much into auto tune. Really glad I found XG

When they said they like R&B, it made so much sense to me. Their sound for Shooting Star and Left Right sounds so good on them. And then XG says anything, Big Reid replies with "awesome"... LOL, that's awesome.

They look amazing! I hope XG can cross barriers and go global! I hope one day they will all be confident conducting interviews in English.

[@foreverswith9725]

I sometimes forget Maya isn’t the leader since her English is so good and she is very good in English interviews. I’m kinda surprised she is not the Leader since the groups music is English centered and she is the most fluent, but I get it she is the only 17.

[@guilhermegui9001]

But being a leader is not about being good in English, it's much more than that. besides, english can be learned, leading is something that not everyone can do

[@tajsimms8976]

@@guilhermegui9001 no offense but the way maya speaks English can’t be taught over night, she speaks it so fluently on a conversational level using connectors and filler words

[@GoodOldCinema]

​@@tajsimms8976 Well, she started speaking English when she was a toddler. She actually grew up mostly speaking English instead of her native tongue, Japanese. So you're right, it'd be incredibly difficult for another XG member to get to her English speaking level.
