Harvey is Australian on her father's side, was born and raised in English in Australia but moved to Japan at a young age and has lost most of her English, which could explain her particular accent

They ladies have old hip hop and R&B souls. They listen and respect the music and pay homage to the artists they love live and respect! You will love their Vox taps also that show their vocal line!
The beat is from Rob $tone - Chill Bill (feat. J. Davis & Spooks), from 2016. Their production is great at selecting deep cuts, like Jurin's beat on Galz Xypher is from Rosalia - Saoko, which was a huge hit in Spain in 2022 but didn't make waves elsewhere.
If you’re interested in the rap lines you can check TAPE 3A Two tens by maya and Harvey TAPE 3B Nothing by Jurin and cocona then Street woman fighter show you can by maya and cocona
I just realized Harvey mentiojned she got her eyesights from her G's. We saw her grandparents at their recent Xtra XG episode and they were not wearing glasses at all.
@@MarkCalica I was agreeing with you buddy, and pointing out how she low key made a joke. She likes slipping in punchlines like she saying in this rap with CeeLo Green.
I would suggest two watches for these... first watch the original video to get the vibes, and then pull up a lyric video to see the bars, and the translations for the non-English parts. Enjoying your reactions, looking forward to more XG!
Harvey's intonation is unique due to the fact that she's Japanese + Australian. Being born in Japan and doesn't speak much English compared to Japanese hence you can hear her Javanese pronunciation is more accurate compared to english. Overall it made a very unique intonation whenever she speaks english. The best part is all the girls are learning quick and fast english language. As you notice their songs are more english than ever. If you're into R&B you would wanna look out for the other 3 Hinata, Juria, Chisa. Mind blowing vocals.
So tape 2 the only knowledge we have for them is that in an interview they said they wrote the lyrics to the rap and practiced with each other. Tape 1 and 3 (a+b) we dont have any info of them partaking in the writing. Now on the song show you can by maya and cocona of XG both them two officially have writing credits (along with others). *show you can is a song written for a dance show*
Don't worry about the subtitles anymore cause just Tape#1, Tape#2 (both you had already seen) and Vox #4 are not full English and don't have subtitles. All the others Tapes and Vox are full English and/or have subtitles as well (and all the songs are full english too)
Later in the docu series you will soon find out where all these writings come from but the impressive part is this groups embodiment towards spitting them bars. Now thats something you cannot train, thats more like feeling the lines and expressing it correctly. For that, focus on cocona's (docu series) part to discover the sheer talent she have for rapping in english. That is something i'm REALLY impress. For a Japanese girl to trully emerge herself in hip hop culture and rap in english. focus skill 1000%
That swag and accent you hearing from Harvey is from her Aussie Homeland. She definitely has a unique sound coming from her vocals. Kinda reminds me how Rosé from BlackPink sounds when she sings.
Here is the Lyric Video to this. Has full translations. I definitely recommend you watch this just to understand what's being said... They got bars... th-cam.com/video/bKGHDsOCkbE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=799Sgl6n8PjkAY_4 Definitely have writers though, Chancellor, Czear, and Simon JAKOPS do a lot of their writing.. They've also worked with some producers here in Atlanta... Check out Show You Can by Maya and Cocona, I know they both got writing credits in that.. The Lyric Video has the whole song, there's a dance MV for the team who used the song on the show but it's half the song..
In an interview Maya has stated that they all have creative say what goes into both videos and music they get a lot of help tho. The best showcase of them writing most of their lyrics is “Show You Can” Maya and Cocona! Thanks for the continuous support for XG!
Jurin- J-U-R-I-N looks deceiving what I am, make 'em baboons bob and babble, Apex of the heart eyes gang, slam bars, hit a lick hella slick, Pyro on the beat, bars got flame. Jurin- Cyberpunk, neon lights in your mind when I rhyme, make your eyes dilate. Jurin- Tunnel vision through the neon glow, bust a flow, watch a sea unfold. Jurin- The sparkling future in front of my eyes, beyond this limitless, eliminate all negativity. before I knew it I was in a different dimension.
Harvey- Fly with my chitchats, claws like a big cat, punchlines make you run it back, no Tenet (Tenet was a time travel movie) Harvey- Floor that gas I'mma blow right past, my wheels gon' scream, Straight forget yo ass when the lights turn CeeLo Green. Harvey- Batto (Japanese sword technique) on your ass, cut clean it's a habit, stone cold when I flip, boy's gotta have it. Rat race funny when I'm hoggin' all the cheese, Eyes 20/20 'cause I get it from my G's, This life takes cuts hell yeah I pay the fees, I'mma get it how I live, yeah, I'II be doin' me (On set!)
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the only one they have writing credits on is "Show You Can" with Cocona & Maya for the show "Street Woman Fighter". I recommend that one, it has a very old school almost "Stomp The Yard" kinda beat lol
I guess you didn’t realize the 3 that got sent back to the hotel were Juria, Chisa and Maya. What happened to them? Well, you watched Maya’s rap in TAPE#2 and Chisa & Juria’s vocals in your first reaction to XG.
They do have writers. But they also have input on things. That's one of the things I like about Simon. He wants the girls to have a voice. I don't care if they write everything personally. It takes nothing away from the fact that you can tell what they're doing is really in them. There's no fake out coached swag. A lot of their influence are 90s and 2k hip hop and R&B artists. I think that's what gravitated me to them. But they don't confine themselves to one genre. You'll see once you dive more into the catalog. Nine of the songs sound the same. I must admit, I got a vibe that you were primarily a rap guy. If you are into the vocalists check out Vox 5. It's the one that will give you a taste of all three singers. They are just as amazing as the rap line. Nice reaction ✌🏾
idk if u listened to my request or someone else's but i'm glad u got to see their earlier stuff, it's still my fav tape. I'd recommend u react to grl gvng mv and lyric video version because the mv doesn't include the full song, enjoy the deep dive!
@@riopato2009 true haha I got into xg with this song I was legit mind blown at how good and next level it is, nothing in the industry comes close to them ngl
I like some of your harry mack stuff. I subbed then. Hadnt watched in a while. Then I saw XG on your channel yesterday. Been binging it all since and liked them all. You've grown as a reactor. Good to see it, will have to go back and listen to some of your stuff. Keep up the grind!
Yes 🙌🏽 I love love the movie 🎥 Kill Bill.. I’m older so I’ve watched it several times. The Documentary Series “Xtra Xtra” is an a amazing musical journey and you understand how genius and visionary Simon “ Jakops” is. Thank you for reacting to more XG.
Behind the scenes of Trampoline. Coco mentions that they write their own lyrics. So maybe coco and Maya help. I do think Jurin maybe writes her own too
Ok here’s a breakdown of my experience being an AlphaZ thru Interviews & BTS. They have a hand in the raps but being a mixtape. They can’t get credit bc it’s a sample beat. Maya n Cocona got credited for lyrics for Show You Can. They have been learning Dance , Music , Korean & English since 2017. They have had 1 on 1 with rapping n Vocal training thru the documentary. In an Interview. They played a song n the girls mention how they like how the minor beat kicks in then the vocals so they understand the science in songs. When they dance. Choreographers has mentioned them hitting off the vocals main n minor beats individually then sync up later so they understand music. I can only guess Maya,Harvey, JURIN has a good understanding w/ rapping but Simon/CEO n Producer mentioning Cocona is different coming from a rapper of American born n raised then went to KOR to be an idol says a lot. They write in English n listening to tons of American music. They have a good understanding of English but as a 3rd language & being in KOR which they still need to master that language. They don’t have time to speak it. As for the rhyme schemes n double entendres. That’s still up in the air as the writers are American so that’s still a debate but I know that they are getting exposed with the talents that they have and we are still learning what these girls full capabilities are. These are all true of what I have experienced w/ XG
XG's "Left Right" was ranked today by Rolling Stone Magazine at #77 top songs of 2023 and #70 best Pop song by Spotify 🔥🐺🔥
Awesome; should be higher.
Harvey is Australian on her father's side, was born and raised in English in Australia but moved to Japan at a young age and has lost most of her English, which could explain her particular accent

On Tape 2 Jurin talks about leading "I don't lead'em I get lit with'em mmmm".
Tape 3A&3B and the VOX line next
Tape 3A and 3B.... Nuff said lol!
You are very good at this. Anyone thinking of starting a new reaction channel should be watching your videos and taking notes.
That's nice to say- I appreciate that!
Agreed
The beat is from Rob $tone - Chill Bill (feat. J. Davis & Spooks), from 2016. Their production is great at selecting deep cuts, like Jurin's beat on Galz Xypher is from Rosalia - Saoko, which was a huge hit in Spain in 2022 but didn't make waves elsewhere.
I'm glad you reacted to the XG video in a row.
Seriously, I love XG. So I'm really glad just one more person understands.
Cocona and May, SHOW YOU CAN!
When you listen - [XG TAPE #3-B] Nothin' (JURIN, COCONA) They will blow your mind, I send you greetings from Argentina 🔵⚪🔵
Cocona is a beast if you watch the documentary then you'll see that they have more than what we've seen so far
If you’re interested in the rap lines you can check TAPE 3A Two tens by maya and Harvey
TAPE 3B Nothing by Jurin and cocona then Street woman fighter show you can by maya and cocona
Still going to ask for VOX #5,,the 3 singers kill it! Keep up the grind my dude!
Tape 3A and 3B next. Looking forward to that!
I just realized Harvey mentiojned she got her eyesights from her G's. We saw her grandparents at their recent Xtra XG episode and they were not wearing glasses at all.
Lol, Those are doubles and she is playing with her word flow. Her focus is making money in her rap and having fun with it.
@@MarkCalica I was agreeing with you buddy, and pointing out how she low key made a joke. She likes slipping in punchlines like she saying in this rap with CeeLo Green.
@@riopato2009 oh my bad lol. I’ll retract my comment lol
This makes sense tho, coz this is the only time they performed this song and I think it’s because Harvey’s grandparents were there
@@lataledaily3147 ha! That's adorable they did that for them. Cute how she called them out in the crowd.
Justin is definitely the leader. In her cypher she says, "I don’t lead’em I get led with’em".
It's Jurin. Haha
@@shnaide1 darn autocorrect! 🤣
Lets goooo we want more XG 🙏💯🙌🏻
I would suggest two watches for these... first watch the original video to get the vibes, and then pull up a lyric video to see the bars, and the translations for the non-English parts. Enjoying your reactions, looking forward to more XG!
Harvey is half Japanese and half Australian.

*show you can is a song written for a dance show*
They have live practice vids with lyrics for these Xg tapes, highly recommend
If you’d like to learn more about the girls, probably the quickest way is to watch their guide to XG. ❤
Imo that guide spoils a lot, I wouldn't recommend 😕
Don't worry about the subtitles anymore cause just Tape#1, Tape#2 (both you had already seen) and Vox #4 are not full English and don't have subtitles. All the others Tapes and Vox are full English and/or have subtitles as well (and all the songs are full english too)
XG💗
I love that you give Harvey her props!!!
Check out Rob $tone’s “Chill Bill”. He released it in 2014. The sample came from that.
I'll say it on every video. This is the Harvey we need.
Later in the docu series you will soon find out where all these writings come from but the impressive part is this groups embodiment towards spitting them bars. Now thats something you cannot train, thats more like feeling the lines and expressing it correctly.

I love Rose! Great comparison.
Chill bill!
Here for your reaction and loving it, especially anything with XG.
Chill Bill was a song by Rob Stone like 8 years ago btw
Here is the Lyric Video to this. Has full translations. I definitely recommend you watch this just to understand what's being said... They got bars...

😅man I really underestimated but I like that I was wrong people who reacts from first time to XG mixtapes DONT get all

@@riopato2009 true haha I got into xg with this song I was legit mind blown at how good and next level it is, nothing in the industry comes close to them ngl
Man I’m so glad you got all the bars, most of these reactors miss soooo many
OK I'm on point with you now😮 I'm downloading this song it's too good😂❤

Fluidly transitioning three different languages that takes three different cadences but is all done in a Westcoast cadence. XPop...XG is XPop.
if you want to mix it up with some Vocals before more rap check out the Vox series. 1-5. still got Tapes 3a and 3B raps too
The Video description says what the original track is. Like the xypher also says what all 4 original tracks are.
It was actually also Jurin referring to her having to lead in Tape 2. She is the co-leader alongside Chisa.
Yes 🙌🏽 I love love the movie 🎥 Kill Bill.. I’m older so I’ve watched it several times. The Documentary Series “Xtra Xtra” is an a amazing musical journey and you understand how genius and visionary Simon “ Jakops” is. Thank you for reacting to more XG.

Btw, have you watched the episode XX of the documentary? It's a great short episode, but some people skip it by accident.
