    King of K-pop! Idol of idols!

    Taemin has been in the industry for more than 16 years as part of the legendary 5-member Kpop group SHINee (under SM Entertainment) and he has been a solo artist since 2014. (This year is Taemin's 10th anniversary as a solo artist.) "Sexy in the Air" and *"Horizon" are his double lead tracks on his 5th mini Korean solo album named Eternal, and first release under his new company Big Planet Made (as a soloist).
    *If you haven't seen and heard "Horizon" yet, I recommend you check out that one next.
    For "Sexy in the Air" what you are hearing is considered Boom Bap music style. And yes, the song is called "Sexy (sex) is in the Air," so what you are hearing is exactly what you think it is. The title and lyrics say "sexy" because it needs to be censored in order to be shown on network TV in Korea and for music shows, etc. I also think he could be saying "Sexy's in the air." (Taemin is 31 years old, so he's not a little kid anymore. :D)
    Taemin is the main dancer and a main vocalist of SHINee. However, because he is a member of SHINee, this means he can do it all. SHINee are known for the fact that there are no longer any fixed roles in their group, the main vocalists can rap and the rappers can fill in as main vocalists at any moment. However, what they are really recognized for is that they are one of the best vocal groups to ever exist. All of the SHINee members are top tier singers and dancers.
    You may find this hard to believe, but when Taemin debuted as a member of SHINee way back in 2008, he didn't have a whole lot of lines in their songs. People even used to make fun of Taemin's singing and they would say that he was tone deaf and couldn't sing. However, it's sort of a misconception that Taemin "couldn't sing." it wasn't that he couldn't sing, it was just that he debuted when he was so young -- he was only 14 years old -- that his voice hadn't really developed yet and he didn't have a good grasp of how to use his voice and produce the sounds he wanted with it. So, in the beginning, when he sang, he was often flat or his voice cracked or he was off key or out of tune, etc.
    And because he was being compared to the other members of SHINee who are all 2 to 4 years older than him, and the other members had such phenomenal voices to start out with, it really made Taemin sound like he was lacking. That's why in SHINee's first few songs Taemin only has a few lines, and most of the time he was just given big solo dance breaks to fill the stage at his parts in the song.
    However, if he was really tone deaf, he never would have become an SM Idol trainee -- SM would have put him on the dance track and probably steered him toward becoming a backup dancer -- and he definitely would have never become the amazing singer that he is today. As you probably know, someone who is truly tone deaf is physically unable to hear the difference in the notes and is unable to carry a tune.
    As you may know, Taemin is considered one of the greatest dancers of all time. He has literally been voted one of the top two BEST dancers in all of Kpop by his peers and industry experts. (Kai from EXO -- who happens to be Taemin's best friend since trainee days, and a fellow member of the Kpop supergroup SuperM -- is the other top dancer.) That is why he has been nicknamed the Korean Michael Jackson. Literally everyone in the Kpop industry looks up to Taemin and idolizes him.
    But Taemin really wanted to prove to everyone that he wasn't just a dancer, so he spent a lot of extra time concentrating on vocal lessons and the other SHINee members -- especially Onew and Jonghyun (two of the best vocalists in the industry) -- spent some serious time coaching and mentoring him until he learned what it took to match their vocal range and to use his voice. (For the first year or more after SHINee's debut Taemin spent hours in vocal lessons and he would push himself every day until his nose would bleed because he was so tired and worn out, etc. He practically lived in the training rooms at SM Entertainment.)
    The ONLY thing the members of SHINee are not good at is lip syncing, so Taemin, and all the members of SHINee, have specifically trained since their debut, to build stamina and endurance, in order to be able to sing live for 3+ hours straight in concert, all while performing these intense choreographies and still sound flawless. When you watch a live performance, you may be shocked because Taemin and SHINee sound so perfect live even though they are dancing so intensely, but that is why they are so highly respected by everyone.
    It's a running joke between fans and the members that you can tell when SHINee are lip syncing because they are so bad at it, that is why they avoid it at all costs. Therefore, when you hear SHINee sing, 95% of the time it will be live.
    Yes, over the years they have become better at lip syncing than they used to be, but now they have gained the reputation as the group that always sings live, so unless they are required to lip sync for a specific reason, what you will hear is live vocals.
    Other Idols and audio sound technicians, etc. who have witnessed the SHINee members performing live are always blown away, because in the parts of the song where most singers would take a break and rely on the backing track vocals to cover their voices so they can catch their breath and recover, this is where the SHINee members actually ramp it up and become their most powerful.
    Therefore, in Taemin's live performance you will discover that he sounds even better than in the recorded version, all while dancing full out. What makes SHINee so great is that even if they are singing acapella while performing this high energy choreography, they sound just as amazing. That's why, even as rookies, senior artists would stop what they were doing to watch SHINee's rehearsals on music programs because SHINee's vocal talent is that impressive.
    When SHINee debuted, they were the first group to demonstrate how it was possible to sing live while performing complex choreography and still maintain stable vocals. (Which was even more impressive because they were also one of the youngest idol groups to debut at the time, with the members all between the age of 18-14 years old.) Before SHINee, the thought within the industry was that it wasn't possible to sing live and also perform high intensity choreography at the same time. At that time, most groups would either sing live and have simple choreography, or they would have crazy cool choreography, but lip sync to their recorded vocals. SHINee completely changed the Kpop industry and upped the standard of what it meant to be an idol singer.
    Taemin -- and SHINee -- live is unmatched. It's literally referred to as the SHINee standard. It's the standard that all other groups strive to reach, and SHINee are the vocalists that all other artists try to emulate.
    Taemin has released at least one song or album -- most of the time way more than just one -- as part of SHINee, as a member of a project group, as a solo artist or as a member of SuperM every year since SHINee's debut. (Except for 2022 because he was on hiatus while he carried out his public service duties as part of his military requirements.) Therefore, including his full-length albums, mini albums, and singles, etc., as well as his Japanese albums, Taemin has more than a dozen solo albums. Not to mention the 2 albums he has as a member of SuperM. And on top of all that, SHINee currently has 14 full-length Korean and Japanese albums, just as many repackaged albums, numerous mini albums, etc. Plus, he has held many solo concert tours -- he is currently on his first solo world tour. Before this his tours were Asian/Japanese tours -- as well as a world tour as a member of SuperM, and SHINee has held more than 100 concerts within 6 world tours so far. You have a TON to catch up on. :D
    Now, if you haven't already, you need to check out Taemin's Killing Voice performance. I have a feeling when you watch his Killing Voice you will find that hearing him sing his songs live, that you will be even more impressed. There is a reason why Taemin is like none other.

    Taemin never disappoints, I like both the MV and the choreography, and the vocals are the icing on the cake. The DJ also did a great job. I feel like the whole thing has such clever transitions and references to some of the previous songs that we can feel TAEMIN's unique style

    Taemin é inegavelmente um artista extraordinário, e existe um vídeo onde ele e Jimin compartilham uma apresentação, eles são grandes amigos, como é de conhecimento público e juntos pertencem ao Padding Squad (Padding Squad é composto por Jimin, Kai, Sungwoon, Taemin, Timoteo do HOTSHOT e Ravi ) .o nome é Showdown ( KBS World Tv) de 2017. Para quem aprecia assistir dois dos melhores dançarinos do Kpop eu recomendo, mesmo que não seja para uma reação assisti-los é um deleite para quem ama dança. 💝🇧🇷

    The word Sexy isn't taboo or censored, so why wouldn't you put the full proper title in the title on your reaction? Are you really that embarrassed by the word sexy? If you use the full title a lot more people will be able to find your video and you will get a lot more views. Taemin's song is called "Sexy in the Air" and that's what people are searching for when they look for Taemin content right now, so if your video had the right title more people would be able to find it. With the correct title the search engine algorithms would direct more people to your video. (No one, in any language, is searching for S In The Air.)
    It's just a shame that more people won't be able to see your reaction because they have no idea your video exists. RIght now it's not being pushed to the top of the list when people look for "Sexy in the Air."

      Thank you for your comment and consideration! I am the last person on earth to censor words because of being prude 😅 Unfortunately, if I use the full word TH-cam shadow bans the video and in fact can even affect the whole channel in the future. It happened a lot in other channels. So, it is what it is. There are many factors on how the algorithm suggests content, and this video is doing pretty well compared to the rest of my videos, for the size of the channel. 🙂 I am here for the long term so I rather play it safe. I will make a video about Horizon soon!
