On Minhyuk's radio, he said when Starship Ent. was about to give MONSTA X the new title song for this comeback, it was so bad that he spoke up about it to the Vice President of the company. It was to the point where Minhyuk didn't want to do a comeback because the company's song was that un-motivating to perform.
That is when Jooheon spoke up and said he had something for the group, which was 'GAMBLER'. It originally didn't have the melody in the music part created yet and the pre-chorus was a bit lacking at the time but after Jooheon developed on it more, all the members of MX voiced that they wanted to use Jooheon's song. The amount of love I have for Jooheon skyrocketed even further; If it weren't for him, we would have gotten a comeback song that even Minhyuk didn't like. Jooheon deserves all the love he gets for this comeback!
Jooheon wrote and produced this song!!!! He’s also a huge Michael Jackson fan and I feel like Gambler is influenced a little by MJ songs!
Yeees, and that pose they do in performance during the Jooheon's narrative "Just I wanna say" for a second is a straight MJ reference + some other details of choreo
Definitely!
No a little, a lot ( and I love it )
As an answer to you going "they gave that part to Jooheon?" He gave the singing parts to himself cause he produced the song. (Source: their latest appearance on Weekly Idol.)
NO WAAAYYY LOVE IT
I love that he gave the high note to himself and gave the vocalists some more rap-like parts.
damn i love his confidence
it’s what he deserves
It’s high time somebody did that
If none was gonna do it honey was gonna do it himself. I’m so here for this change!
YASS we love that
PD in high pitched voice: "It's sexy! IT'S SEXY!"
relatable tbh
"It's downright SEXY!" ^-^
This song and MV is masterpiece. Jooheon King! Monsta X and theirs whole discography is top tier. With or without show wins.
this is what happens when you let Jooheon produce and make the title track just legendary
LEGENDARY!!!!!
LEJOOHEONDARY!! lmao..
"They're great, but GAMBLER is just different"
SAME MAN SAME FINALLY SOMEONE FEELS THE SAME
In 2019 Jooheon changed his stage name to "Joohoney" for (mostly) English activities! He hoped that "Joohoney" would be easier for international monbebe to pronounce, since a lot of people would say "Jooheon" incorrectly.
It's only the english stage name that is changed btw, the korean stage name is still the same as his real name 주헌
@@fdkfafrs9984 Yes, I said it was mostly for English activities, but they do still use it on Korean things sometimes. It says "Joohoney" at the beginning of Gambler.
@@fdkfafrs9984 read it again. thats literally what they said.
You know it's masterpiece when PD started laughing and went speechless
The only way I can describe MONSTA X is that they're a 'Men's Group'. They're all so sexy and charismatic. Literally, the finest men I've laid eyes on, not to mention HOW INSANELY talented they are!
Gambler was the first title track song produced by Jooheon and thats why this song has so much importance to Monsta X and to Monbebe's......
Your reaction is probably one of the most relatable reaction for monbebes, or personally just me-
1. I literally died when Minhyuk & Hyungwon started off with their sultry voice
2. I am so used to Jooheon and I.M rapping back to back so yea- I was not expecting I.M to come for us with his vocals at the beginning (I knew I.M can sing but never in title tracks so it also threw me off guard)
3. I was also thrown off guard during the Shownu bridge part (his high notes tho *chef kiss*)- I thought the part with Kihyun is the chorus-
4. That drop towards the chorus murdered me again, Alexa play Amen by Monsta X
5. I was not expecting both Jooheon and I.M to sing the chorus, I got so happy that I teared up on my first time listening
6. Jooheon & I.M’s rap flow are insane in this song. Periodt.
7. DANCE BREAK. ITS BEEN SO LONG- Plus hyungwon center? Yep I am living a happy mbb life
8. Joohoney’s high notes defo killed me for the third time- I thought kihyun gonna come thru but they really say “SIKE”
9. Minhyuk vs Kihyun’s acting is so good, and it fits with the beat which makes it more satisfying to see and hear
10. Kihyun’s raspy scream at the end? Yea my life is so complete. Since the whole time their tone went “down”, their “high” screams at the end are just so pleasing to hear.
If you read this far, thank you- I just love my boys I can’t help but ranting this xD
Note to PD:
- This song is composed and directed mostly by Jooheon, so yea definitely more creativity freedom
- Jooheon really did change his real name to Joohoney to make it easier pronounced by international mbbs (i forgot when exactly it’s official but it is a few years back i think?)
- I.M definitely can sing- I think only a few of the b-sides where he actually show off his vocals, and only little parts. This song tho, he really popped off
correction on the name - jooheon didn't change his "real name" - only his english stage name. his korean stage name and real name remains jooheon
@@fdkfafrs9984 Thank you for the correction!
If you want to listen I.M sing more you should hear his solo project goddamn
That was exactly what I wanted to say✨.
Monsta X is the sexiest band out there for me. And it comes from someone who stan Vixx and History soooo yeah. I love this comeback so much and I'm so happy Monsta X are growing so well !
A vixx stan......... hello there
@@maximusdecimus9686 Hi ^^
@GS I know, me too😣
They are the sexiest in the world. Period. So hot - they're blazing fire.
@@maximusdecimus9686 hiii!!
Joohoney is his stage name people couldn't get his name straight
only his english stage name his korean one is still jooheon
Yea, it was also so that non-korean fans could have a easier time pronouncing his name, lol
Yup, it's because people kept calling him "Juhyeon" so he was like, you know what....
Personally I perfer Jooheon over Joohoney, I dont know extactly what it is but i just dont like the sound of Joohoney.
@@aussiecountry9320 i don't think he intended on making fans call him joohoney, i think it was more to help new fans get the pronunciation right for when they learn his real name if that makes sense
I'm so happy for Jooheon, he composed, arranged and wrote lyrics for this, it's his first title track.
Liking their newer stuff more just shows that they are improving and topping themselves each time so I find that totally fair and fine
Exactly!..Monsta X's evolution is a wonder to behold. Say what you will about ANY of their eras, they are arguably (or not...hehe) UNMATCHED in their consistent elevation in the craft that is K-pop. When people recognize the progression, I am beyond pleased.
I actually haven’t been obsessed with a monsta x comeback since jealousy. Gambler freaking killed it.
Omg me too. Jealousy is the song that made me a monbebe but Gambler is a whole masterpiece ✨
Same
true Minhyuk and Hyungwon shine a lot lately, I feel like it's partially due to Wonho leaving. Since then they finally got more lines and could show off their style. Unfortunate that it has to be Wonho leaving until the company gave them some attention, but I'm glad they can are finally getting more parts and more center positions, they deserve it.
i so agree!! this is definitely how i feel now that we can see hyungwon and minhyuk’s potentials as they show off their vocals + they’re improving ❤️ but ofc my ot7 heart 😢
@@shaemin_ Always OT7 but I do understand what you mean. Wish the company had taken time to pay attention to every member's talent and potential to grow
@@MrFries4slayer SSE has penchant for unfair line distribution
Why did wonho left ?
@@w__xy_z some false accusations were made against him, he felt like he was a burden for the group ☹️ ( i am not sure if that’s well said, i do not speak english very well ☹️) it were horrible times, it happened back in 2019
fatal love b-sides are PURE GOLD like, seriously! Same with one of a kind... I am so happy to stan these guys, they're kings and that's it.
you're better than everyone else .
This is Jooheon's era.
y'all better help vote for them on the voting apps they need a win or 2 for this masterpiece. jooheon deserves it.
they definitely had more creative freedom, if not the most, this comeback with their title track since jooheon did produce it himself. also from what i understood, joohoney is the stage name he uses in english/for english promotions but still uses jooheon if written or said in korean! i might be wrong though?
Yes i also noticed that most idols use their real names if they're credited in the making of the song, actually not just in kpop but even in western music too
I think it’s because when people talk to him in Korean it sounds like they’re saying jooheony anyway. I’m thinking specifically of when Hani called his name on weekly idol years back
you are correct!
PD you need to check out I.M covering "Instagram", his vocal is ughhh, or maybe his solo "God Damn"
The fighter part switch version too! Even though it's with all the members he really stood out in it (and it's part of why he's my bias lol)
@@Akeyins yes, in fighter i.m killed it and he was singing wonho's parts!
YES PLEASE! React to God Damn please please please
YAAAAS GOD DAMN
Sorry I'm not sorry (Fatal Love B side) already showcased IM's singing skills so well
actually all of the members singing skills ❤
Yes, one of my faves!
yeah pd should totally do a listening party to fatal love!
Jooyoung, a great soloist at their agency, helped write and compose the song. When I saw his name credited in the preview video, I knew the song was going to be good.
Yup he’s made some great music with Monsta X so far.
Giving credit where it is due. Respect
Minhyuk told that they didn't liked 2 songs the company introduced them to pick as title song for this comeback. So Joohoney said, that he has one he wrote. When they heard demo, all members said that this will be this comeback song. SS vice president also was very impressed, that he told: Jooheon-ssi you improved a lot! And today Joohoney said on the radio, that he wants to produce a song for Aespa. The producer Joohoney is born people!
I'm definitely with you, but in that I felt that since Wonho's departure from Monsta X their songs just haven't been the same. I really didn't care for their English songs except for Someone's Someone, either. But Love Killa bringing in a more slow, low, sexy vibe really brought me back in. They started off as revolutionizing noise music in K-pop and now they're adding their ranks into the seductive vibe that I'd say is similar to Taemin's Move, Wonho's Open Mind/Lose, or even Singularity by BTS's V. Makes me feel like even though Monsta X and Wonho have parted ways, they're still connected through their music and their progression.
I am a HUGE MONBEBE, but i prefer the new music without Wonho and Wonho doing his songs, really. They are growing up a lot❤️
I love kihyun's lines especially the bluffing part cause it kinda shows his rock voice like when he sang bad and I think he really suits that vibe
I’ve been a monbebe for 6 years and I have the same dilemma as you as I now consider Gambler as my favorite Monsta X title track and feel guilty that I have to dethrone Beautiful 🥲 it’s just too good! It shows so much of their musical growth. And having Joohoney be the producer of this song kinda makes perfect sense as to why it’s amazing: no one else other than a member of the group himself can truly go in the direction the group wants (probably this more mature sound) while still capture their usual “MX style” sound.
I'm a Fatal Love era Monbebe, but I felt the same. My personal favorite is still Shoot Out, but Love Killa and Gambler are second to me. But I'm so happy to see Joohoney and Hyungwon shine a lot this era and I.M. singing voice.
I cant get out of We are here album, for me is THE BEST.
I totally get how you’re feeling with their past recent discography, because from what I’m seeing MX is still exploring different sounds while sticking to their signature vibe/energy/image even 6 years into their career. And naturally with experimentation we can expect mixed responses with each comeback title track, and that’s totally fair. In fact I’m really glad that MX is doing music like this because this signals longevity, I know I’m gonna be stanning these dudes for a long time.
In the last comeback, Minhyuk said that this is the real monsta x, so maybe the company is giving them a lot more freedom than usual (hence jooheon being the one that composed, produced and arranged this song) so I guess we can expect more of this type of comeback in the future ones.
I personally feel like every MX release is better than the last one so I have zero guilt saying I like their new material. I still love their old stuff but I love the new stuff more. They’re more experienced and their voices are all even stronger and their charisma is top knotch! They’re confident and sexy and I’m here for it.
I KNEW YOU’D LIKE IT PD!!!! Jooheon produced this song and it’s his first title track for Monsta X he got to produce.
He still goes by both Jooheon and Joohoney. He changed his stage name for international fans in 2019 since everyone kept pronouncing it wrong.
hyungwon stole this for me. his smooth butter vocals and his visuals are something else.
MonstaX has never been a boy group, they make grown MEN music which is what I love. . Each comeback they give us new sound new melody, they are evolving. Can’t wait to see how they top OOAK !
Monsta X is getting to the point in their history as a group where you can really feel the distinct eras in their music. I have been a Monbebe for almost five years and the beautiful thing about sticking with a group for so long is that you really get to grow with them. You get to experience the changes in their sound and while their new tracks are getting progressively better, their old tracks still carry so much nostalgia. So much of your reaction highlighted their talents, such as the rappers also being amazing vocalists, to each of the members really getting the chance to shine recently. They really are such a unique group and they will always have such a unique place in kpop.
ALL MONBEBE OR ALL KPOP STANS SHOULD WATCH THIS REACTION. HE LITERALLY GAVE A WHOLE 34:45 MINUTES LECTURE ABOUT HOW AWESOME MONSTA X IS. AND I HAVE TO SAY I ACTUALLY LEARN ALOT FROM THIS VIDEO.
AND I ALWAYS KNEW HOW GENUINE PD WHEN IT COMES TO HIS REACTION 🥲
SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS 💜
15:26 honestly ever since this song came out ive been waiting for PD to listen and pick this song apart cos YESS, THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT
ive seen a lot of mbbs who said they wished this song had a proper chorus, but LISTEN. i know these minimalist drop choruses in kpop tend to be overused and disappointing, and not all subversions work, but this time IT ACTUALLY DOES. and thats what really drives me insane cos it's not supposed to work as well as that, but goddamn the overall production, instrumentation and melody of the song is just so smooth and tastefully done. each section flows well to the next, it's not jarring to the ears at all. it's mx trademark noise music and yet it's not noisy at all and has great replayability.
love what PD said about monsta x being a 7 year old group but still reinventing and improving themselves cos i literally thought the same thing when i heard this album, it made me so emotional to see their monstrous improvement. i mean consider: mx is one of the older idols out there. more than half of them are approaching 30. they're old. they're veterans in the industry and have been through so much BS and yet they still have that rookie spirit. it is actually insane to think how they had to lose wonho, one of the most popular members of the group, and then had to perform this comeback without shownu, AND YET looking at their stages monsta x shows an image of being at their peak. they have never been this confident and explosive onstage. minhyuk and hyungwon really stepped up their game, everyone's showing off their ranges and generally just feeling their oats. we LOVE to see it.
This comment is EVERYTHING
I like that they still included the brash synth in the chorus. It fits in well with the rest of their discography while spicing up the smooth, sleek vibe of the rest of the song. It could have come across as generic, but the addition of that synth makes it monsta x and it is amazing.
The brash synth is my favorite part. It's simple but so affective
Yes their B-sides are too good which many missing out
Man I love you for this reaction. I’ve been waiting for it since the song was released. Nobody and I mean NOBODY does Monsta x justice like you do. How you interpret their direction and the nuances. The song is amazing and the MV and choreography did it justice and you’re the one to appreciate and understand all this creativeness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Plz do a "One of a kind" album reaction.... And do with lyrics... It's crazy...
not to be a stan, but with monsta x you are never disappointed. And form of therapy is right with their b-sides. personally, they're better than their title tracks. ofc title tracks have to have that extra “punch” to attract the general public, but whenever i’m asked to recommend their music, more often than not i’m talking about their b-sides. people just presume all of their music is “loud” when they are literally full of surprises. they stand out bc their music genuinely is different. their new music (without wonho) is completely different to what they’ve released in the past, and i feel we’re getting a more mature/adult sound from them. though, all of their discography is top tier and to my taste so they’re definitely getting an 11/10 from me lmao
Joohoney really doesn't stop surprising me. He is just crazy.
This is absolutely me giving speech in front of my family about the history of monsta x and 1001 reasons why i love them
Joohoney knows what they are capable of as a group and he showcased that perfectly in this masterpiece. Hands down my fave MX title song.
one of the things that I love about Monsta X music is partly you don't know what to expect next, another part is you know they're going to grow more...it makes u stay curious...downside is they don't do mainstream which as we all know, doesn't really keep a lot of fans...but as their fan, i prefer the first, i also have a hunch that they're going to be more famous later, like maybe their songs will become unexpectedly more known to the public...sometimes i feel their music is too early kinda out of the era (it has pros & cons), i hate boring stuff so their music is perfect for me...especially their b-sides, the songs are well thought out, none of those, let's just smack that song there to complete an album kind of feel...& that's why i like their music so much, plus they're all gentlemen
yea I was hooked to this song once I.M started his "don't you really wanna feel alive?" and I basically sank when he went "my suit is black my suit is fresh, open my pack let me show how I bang." lol I love his tone when he sings and raps. different kind of "boss" from JH, but still.. boss ^^
I.M. Had a solo track a few months ago, Goddamn, and he sings most of it. *Chef's Kiss
And also he said himself that he wanted to give himself more in this song so maybe thats why he did that high note instead of Kihyun and he also sings Shownu’s part since he is not doing promotion for health reasons so yeah… he and the group have so much freedom now I guess. Also, Hyungwon wrote the lyrics of two bsides as Changkyun and Jooheon always do. You should check it out, its a grate album :)
PD! Please don't feel guilty to say that Gambler can be a 11/10 because it's AWESOME and of course it's going to make us feel confused and shocked hahaha
Thank you so much for your reaction!! You pointed out the best parts of the MV and you really represented how Monbebe feel 👐❤️
that conflict for best mx song is golden 😂
YES PD!!! This comeback is like a dirty bass, spicy guitar, and eerie vocals mixed in one. I loooooovee how MX has been evolving yet staying to their true colors. Ya know?
On top of this beautifully shot blockbuster movie. This comeback is EVRYTHIIING!!!
I´m so glad you acknowledge Minhyuks Talent here.
You might wanna check out one of the Alligator performances again, where the Camera has such a great angle on Minhyuk, cause in the pre-chorus he lets the jacket drop down his shoulders and then he pulls it back up and he does it with so much swagger and immediately gets back into the choreo like omg i´m sure y´all can tell that he´s my bias lmao.
I’ve been yelling that this is the best comeback ever
"Actually he caught my attention with that starbucks meme" refer to hyungwon
I hope more (korean) people can see their efforts.
Gambler is definitely one of the best K-pop releases of 2021, no debate:)
I share the same sentiments with PD. I've been wanting to get into MONSTA X since last year mainly because I know they have the talent (other factors include, as an ahgase I wanted to know more about them & I have monbebe friends who like them sm). However, I'm not really that into heavy, loud music. I mean, yeah I can listen to some but I can't listen to them for too long. But I stumbled upon Love Killa quite recently and it was sooo good. Now that they released Gambler, I'm soooo amazed. Gambler is perfection - from the concept, visuals, choreo, vocals, and other musical elements (dang that electric guitar hits differently!). I didn't wanna say it's my fave because I like the english album and Love Killa too. But omg this one really just keeps surprising me. Every performance is amazing! And I can't wait to see this perform with Shownu in it! I'm a new fan and tbh I like this musical route. I'm still exploring their other albums but for sure, this is gonna be at the top 3, if not the top 1!
Hi, just want to leave a reply as I can identify with your comment. I'm a new-ish fan too and slowly listening through MX's discography (not too keen on the loud title songs, so I'm glad to hear the B-sides ). This mini-album is one of my favourites.
P.S. I'm also going through GOT7 discography too - 'Breath of Love...' and 'Dye' are so good!
@@panzwes5993 Right? I'm slowly getting into the loud songs like Alligator and Shoot Out, but the recent comebacks really allowed me to see them in a different light. IDK but Gambler is really SOTY material for me. And I agree, I love this mini-album. I just placed an order for this mini-album because the other songs are so good too!
Omg all I can say is ahgase and monbebe are besties fr!!! Both groups are v authentic and have their own charms. Their b-sides are good too! :)
This song is something else! its so good!
I love the evolution of MX - The maturity and sound is fantastic and very sexy - 11/10 for me - Best come back ever. Also Joohoney wrote, composed and produced it!!! and they All did great - Thanks for the reaction, I was patiently waiting for it
Jooheon needs a killer solo pop song in English. He'd do numbers.
i love that a jooheon-produced title track brought you this much hype back into monsta x to give it a 10/10 and that you like listening to their b-sides 🥰❤️
The vocal and rap performance this comeback was so damn good. Minhyuk and Jooheon really stood out to me
I'm 99.9% agree with him, except for one thing. He was going up and down with Monsta X, but it is always going up for me.
I really really like this song. When minhyuk's part start I was like ???wtf??? It's so good?? And I think this is the 1st time I liking the title song right away, before I need to listen 2-3 times more
And for the performance video don't worry It'll be out soon!!!
I.M and Joohoney sang on a lot in the B-Sides of Fatal Love. That would be a cool listening party, I think you would really like it. This mini album is very jazz inspired, I love it so much.
Edit: I think they have been given a lot more creative freedom, between album concept and song creation and production. I've been loving their new stuff. Their album credits are littered with I.M, Jooheon and Hyunwon now.
2:24！！！！this literally my face during watching wtf
I LOVE THEIR NEW STUFF
i just cant stop listen to this song until today
jooheon my biasss😭✌️
If you haven't yet, i'd suggest you give I.M's solo a listen, God Damn. His vocals in that and the whole album Duality are beautiful. He really has a soulful tone to his voice.
Yup would definitely love to see actor Minhyuk someday 🙏
This song is what you get when you allow the guys to have creative freedom! They’ve always taken a big part in writing majority of their songs. They utilized the members in a way I only got a taste of with Love Killa. The vocals, the rap line, all popped off! This is my favorite comeback of the year! I love it so much!
In case you are reading this Jooheon: You did great with this song! The whole album has been on repeat since it came out :) Even if we weren't able to give you the win on The Show, you all killed it with this comeback :)
I love Gambler, I love it is brilliant. Jooheon did it all brilliantly and the rest of the guys did it wonderfully too. But Jooheon is the producer of this song, so really a standing ovation for him
the cool thing that Monsta X has done, and has continued to do well throughout their career is keeping their signature intense sound while also experimenting with genre and style. it's why the difference between their old and new music is so distinct yet so familiar at the same time. their execution of this is probably one of my favorites in kpop.
This whole mini album is produced by monstax its so my taste of music
YESSSS Hyungwon and Minhyuk were SHINING literally one of my favorite comebacks
We all feel that way when they put out new music...this song is incredible. Hell this album is incredible!!! I think that since they have more creative freedom as seniors the line distribution is so much better. They all shine in this album!
It's true that their B-site is insane!!!
Cuz Monsta X is the only group that i listen to the whole Album!!!
Best reaction of all!!!
i always comeback to this reaction because it gives me comfort when PD says:
WHAT THE FF....
BTOB and Monsta X rappers are top tier, but when they sing 😳
Monsta X always exceeds our expectations. 'Gambler' is masterpiece!!!!!
What i like especially about this comeback, except the great title track of course, is the style of their b-sides. They all kind of have a similar vibe but are still different and I reaally love them, mainly because it's a new sound i never heard of Monsta X. As you said, their b-sides are just masterpieces.
This song really came alive after the second chorus. The added harmony and adlibs towards the end really drove it home
You will feel guilty if you choose just one monsta x song.. BC THEY DON'T MAKE BAD SONG.. it just keep getting better and better.. idk what power they have.. Like they can always topped their previous comeback.
He changed his stage name to Joohoney because many people confused his name as Joohyeon
Ultimately, the song may sounded different from the usual Monsta X songs because Gambler was produced by Jooheon and honestly, I am so happy that he was able to release this as a title track. On a personal level, it wouldn't be insulting to say that Gambler is 11/10 because it's proved that Jooheon is a really great music producer and was able to perfectly make a music with Monsta X's colour while sound different than other old title tracks. And as expected from Jooheon, the song's really great and I'm in no way feel guilty to say that Gambler is my favourite Monsta X's title track of all time 💙
you know it's good when pd starts yelling
Their B-sides are the bomb diggity bruh 🔥
he has changed his name a few times now, but in 2019 he chooses Joohoney as his stage name, because there were many international fans who could not pronouns his name Jooheon correct
so yeah JooHoney is his stage name
english stage name is joohoney the korean one is still 주헌 btw
@@fdkfafrs9984 oh yes, right thank you dear
PD replaying Kihyun's high note at the end is me, and I'm glad he's doing it bc I still wanted to replay it even now.
Watching monsta x grow over the years you can not denied that shine forever , dramarama, beautiful , shoot out or alligator are best title track of monsta but you grow with them and every comeback we are waiting for something new that brings you joy and excitement but gambler this is the mature side of monsta x the other title track was watching a baby grow you expected to see what new things they bring an oh boy they really give it to us,.
Kihyun's part is something else
Gambler is such a vibe I love itt soo much. Gambler I knew I would love it.
i love how they try new stuff like more sexy and matured concept and i think it's good that they are trying new stuff and people are loving it! Not that their old songs are bad they are good, i love shoot out and stuck so much but I'm grateful that they tried a new concept and showed a different side of them.
I felt similarly re: confusion when I first heard Gambler. I loved watching their older title songs, but I didn't necessarily listen to them. Just like they're changing/growing, we as listeners are also changing/growing too! I don't think it's insulting; it's just a different context! For me, there were a few songs each comeback (esp. b sides) that I just loved and listened to repeatedly but never most of an album. That changed with Fatal Love and esp. with One of a Kind, where I've been listening to basically the whole album non-stop. Their old stuff is great, but now that I'm almost 30, I'm a big fan of their newer stuff. It's definitely that soft sexiness that's drawing me in.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG THANK YOU SO MUCH
i was smiling all throughout the video so proud of my boys 🤧😭
edit: jooheon said he was greedy with the parts since he's the producer lmao so he prolly took the high note 😂 and yes starship is finally giving them more creative freedom (as they should)
Gambler is a 10/10, I love MX and I really aprecciate how they are outdoing themselves. I love their discography and honestly can't compare them, because I enjoy each one in a different way. I feel that it really shows how amazing they are, because they have been showing a lot of colors, and I still feel revigorated by them, no matter how many time has passed.
Don't get me wrong, I really liked Fantasia, but it was missing the Jooheon x I.M. rap duet. This covered it.
please, jooheon’s solo ‘smoky’ from last year has been one of my favourite songs ever since, the man can Sing sing.
anyway i love monsta x thank you for reacting
I can't believe witnessing PD with his high pitch 😂😂 that's the power of GAMBLER
