Nobody does it like XG. Period. Once you head down the XG rabbit hole you never turn back like all the other millions of us. I'm old skool and i haven't come across a group with the amount of raw talent and charisma as XG in a VERY long time. Elite vocalists, elite rapline, elite dancers, elite visuals.
Their fanbase is quite diverse, which is a testament to how far reaching their music is. There were kids, teenagers, adults and even elderly at their Japan concert this year. They announced a world tour next year, hope you're ready!
Chisa Yelling - recreates a scene from Love Letter (1995) Japanese movie where characters husband is lost and never found in a snowstorm in the mountains. She goes there to yell out to him "How are you?". She replies to the echo. "I'm doing fine.", knowing the echo is the only response she will ever get. Girls crying - they surprise each of them with a video message from their family who they really have not seen for 5+ years during their training. This XG original song is a unique Christmas gift to us Alphaz and the World
Xubs for XG! XG is one of one only! -Auto Like for XG! (7 Japanese Members, Based in South Korean, Songs in English) Interest in Rap: do “Tape 2 Galz Xypher” first and “Show You Can” Interest in R&B: do Left Right Interest in Pop/Kpop: do Shooting Star Interest in Christmas: do Winter Without You -Must do: Shooting Star, Left Right, Mascara, Tippy Toes, Tape 2 3a 3b 1, Vox 5 4 3 2 1 and their newer stuff Hesonoo/X-Gene, GRL GVNG, TGIF, New Dance, Puppet Show, Show You Can, Winter Without You -Deep dive Documentary Xtra Xtra for deep dive (5 years in the making!)
It's great you feel they're so effortless when they perform because in reality they were trained on a brutally difficult level to be able to be this perfect and effortless now...their pre-debut documentary Xtra Xtra is like prettyyy painful to get through but really shows you what these girls have gone through to be where they are now, it's a must I don't really know what to recommend to you since you said you're kinda familiar with a lot of their title tracks already and even know a lot of the members so I don't know what you've seen or not seen already... I think I would recommend this next: - First they performed this song WWY on The First Take as well as It's Live with a beautiful band arrangement and it eats even harder live if that's possible...they also have 2 behind the scenes for this particular song, the one called XG Days #23 in particular shows the behind the scenes of why they were crying and shocked in the video (it was candid, not acting, their producer and creator Simon surprised them with video messages from their parents in Japan) plus it throws you right into their personalities a bit which, god they're such rays of light and so natural just, best girls, really - 2nd I would recommend their XG Move videos which show all of their dancing ability, their VOX videos which show their vocals and all their Cypher videos which show their rapping ability - 3rd Then I would start their documentary series Xtra Xtra. It's extremely thorough in showing everything, and I mean everything (I'll leave another comment with basic background so this won't be too long lol )
Okay so background and who's who a little: XG is a 7 member Japanese global group under XGALX entertainment. They are not Kpop or Jpop but X-Pop which is why all of their songs are in English. Their creator is former DMTN member Simon Jakops, you will see his name on everything he also helps write and produce all their songs, flies with them almost everywhere, you'll see him all the time. He himself is half Japanese and Half Korean which is where the name Jakops comes from: he said the JA is for Japan, the KO is for Korea and the PS is for Produces so when you see Jakops on anything that means it's Simon. All of the girls are extremely talented and do a lot of things I won't mention everything here but you'll learn more as you watch more stuff. All of the members speak Japanese, Korean and English. All of the girls love Hip Hop and R&B. 4 of the girls can rap but ALL of them can sing. ALL of them can also dance. They were trained to be that good. I'll try to put an adjective to explain the rappers roles in the group better (this doesn't mean it's all they can do just to introduce you to them since I can't really put main, lead or sub rapper because they would all be at main rapper level in any typical kpop group): - 2:30 Chisa, Main Vocal (she's the one that opened the song with those runs that you said I need to know who sings this lol), Japanese, 21 Oldest Member - 2:41 Juria, Main Vocal, Japanese, 19 - 3:00 Hinata, Lead Vocal, Half Japanese Half Korean (from Japan), 21 - 3:30 Harvey, Swaggy/Unique Tone- Rapper, Singer, Half Japanese (mother) and Australian (father), 21 - 3:40 Maya, Fast/Cadence - Rapper,Singer, Japanese (but went to an International School and is the only one really fluent in English), 18 - 3:51 Jurin, Melodic/Diction- Rapper, Singer, Japanese, Leader, 21 - 4:04, Cocona, Striking, Heavy Tone- Rapper, Singer, Japanese, Maknae (her and Maya re both '05 line and have known each other since they were little), 18
yup this is still on repeat since it came out, probably until next Xmas 2024. & that voice is Chisa. She's the reason I fell in love with XG. Her voice captivated me.
you know the main rappers, Maya, Harvey, Jurin & Cocona...main vocals are Chisa, Juria and Hinata...although all these girls are all rounders....merry christmas 👊🐺
yes XG's live versions of Winter Without You are up now on "Its Live" (Korean Show) and "The First Take" (Japan Show) and they are both just incredible
XG is my Favorite Xpop Girl Group and even the four Rappers can really “Sing 🎤 “. This group is full of “ACES”. The members are kind, gracious and very respectful. The fans “Alphaz” are steadily growing. They have performed “Live” in five Countries and their last one was in their home Country Japan. Directly, following their first Solo Concert in Japan they announced their 2024’ World Tour. I’m an OG and I became a fan right after viewing their first post on the Dance Performance Move1# and so I thought they were an elite Dance Crew. Later I seen a MV Teaser of “Tippy Toes” so I found out about this Japanese Global Group. If you get the opportunity…please review their Documentary Series “Xtra Xtra”…it shows you their Musical Journey with Simon. He’s their Executive Producer and he’s the visionary in creating XG. . Merry Christmas 🎁 2023’. 🙆🏻♀️🎄❄️🐺
