Maya and Cocona are the youngest members of XG. The future is looking bright for these girls if they can keep this up. XG may not be well liked in Korea but they are already huge in the west. Their crowd at KCON in LA was enormous, almost like everybody was there only for them
Yes! Candy Shop. I've been trying to remember that all day, listening to this track on repeat. I get Candy Shop and a bit of Paper Thin. Thank you! That has been gnawing at me.
'Fear nobody but God, that's the essentials' = Fear of God Essentials reference, the californian clothing brand 'Coco-tani' = Ohtani reference, the japanese baseball player who plays for LA Angels 'And y'all ain't seen a group like us as if our name was John tho' = triple entendre (John tho, John Doe, John Cena). The John Cena one being in the 'and y'all ain't seen a' part. If you listen close enough it actually sounds like Maya is saying 'John Cena'. Also, they're playing around the John Cena slogan 'You can't see me'. 'Sure you can'/'Show you can' = Shoryuken reference, the special attack used by Ryu and Ken in the Street Fighter game
Ya'll "ain't seen" (John Cena, his catch phrase is you can't see me) a group like us as if our name was Jon though(again the John Cena ref) but this can also be John Doe(unidentified person)
they got songwriting credits, but they're not the only ones who wrote it :) still vv impressive imo, they're 17/18 year old and they've been around for a year only
XG influenced by Lauryn Hill, Aaliyah,TLC, Destiny's Child, Beyonce, Faith Evans, Keyshia Cole, Kehlani, Mary J Blige, Missy Elliott, Ciara, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Billie Eilish, Justin Beiber, etc. They also like Spice Girls, Blackstreet, Shanice, Nujabes, Mariah Carey, SZA, Elvis Presley, Black Eyed Peas, Elton John, Daft Punk, Usher, Frank Ocean, 2Pac, Khaled, Tinashe, Janet Jackson, BIG K.R.I.T, Brandy & Monica, Bruno Mars, Avril Lavigne, Craig David, Silk Sonic, etc.
@@D.N.A.23 same here, I find it silly how certain people use that however as a way to hate them. I honestly don’t get it , this the first time I’ve seen in kpop where we have a non Korean group that’s fully hip hop based absolutely killing it with actual knowledge and homage to the culture they are inspired by and doing it right! , XG gonna dominate so much
Beat or the trumpet thing also reminds me of Akon- Smack That. It's both John Doe and John though because it's also a John Cena bar because she said you ain't seen a/Cena group like us before. They wrote this for Korean dance battle show Street Woman Fighter season 2. That street battle us sure you can bar was also a Street Fighter video game bar as Maya pronounced it like Shoryuken, which is Ryu's move.
Since this song is intended for the Street Women Fighter competition, it seems like that lyrics is a wordplay derived from Street Fighter game Ryu/ken I could be wrong though..
Yes 👍🏽 I laughed along with you 🙆🏻♀️😝❤️🔥 because these two are ridiculously talented. These two are the youngest and they’re definitely “Martians”. If you get an opportunity to view their Xtra Xtra Documentary Series you’ll see these two rapping at 13’ and then you get there fierceness and dedication to be this Exceptional. Thank you for reacting to Maya and Cocona’s new rap song created for Tsubakill a Japanese Dance Crew who will be participating on the Women’s Street Fighter ll.
Sure I first reacted to XG's comeback "Shooting Star" about a month after it was released and was pretty blown away by it I can say that I have been following there music since then. My favorite member is Jurin.
Imagine COCONA is only 17 😭😭😭 love her!!! ❤️

That’s cause we over here starving for good music
That track is for this th-cam.com/video/Y1F2gbiabOU/w-d-xo.html that's why that long break is there.
COCONA MAYA so swag!
XG no joke.
Maya and Cocona in the Zone was very Dangerous 🔥😬

also they just came back from LA so the LA references hit hard fr
in the [XG TAPE #3-A] Two Tens MAYA DID THE U CANT SEE ME GESTURE...
I'm done I didn't catch the "John Cena" reference but that's sick!! or the fear of god essentials reference 😂😂 THATS CRAZY!!
Ya'll "ain't seen" (John Cena, his catch phrase is you can't see me) a group like us as if our name was Jon though(again the John Cena ref) but this can also be John Doe(unidentified person)
Show you can~~XG
I see XG I like. I see cats I really like. Good vid man!
I love that you had to listen to it twice in a row! That's enjoyment and I suspect you had it on repeat for a minute😆
You know some people, especially back on the day would pronounce “though” like “doe”. So it makes sense as a double.
they got songwriting credits, but they're not the only ones who wrote it :) still vv impressive imo, they're 17/18 year old and they've been around for a year only
The 'empty' part can be a dance break or an open verse where anyone can rap over it should they want to 😂😂😂
yup, this song was released for a dance crew show actually. so it was meant to have a dance break section
Can we have Jurin challenge that open verse like the one she did for Le Sserafim? It's gonna be wild 🥳
your cat is cool😂

Their music diversity was mind-blowing for real
Maya, Cocona write their own lyrics 😊
They definitely got credited for it ! Just imagine what kinda stuff they could do for a fully written song by them , they got so much potential🔥
@@Mrsushiinom these girls are amazing talented and i like they do y2k music , hip hop

Have you not listened to all their other rap tracks? You’d see what they like. All old school beats.
sheezus. Maya's "SHOW YOU CAN" sounds so mockery and very threatening at the same time. I love it.

I could be wrong though..
@@henrytendenyeah that flying Dragon Uppercut fire 🔥 Shoryuken Ref

This track writes just for Dance battle Street Woman fighter 2, u can check the dance performance by TSUBAKILL.
Confident chicks with whole new Swagger 😎
XG is the New Meta 🤟
That "motto" can be double meaning too. Motto in Japanese is "more". They conquer more grounds with their music.
You ain't CEna group like us as if our name was John though. Maya also referenced CENA with the hand gesture at the end of TwocTens.
WORD PLAY MY MAN! ANOTHER LEVEL!
Ha I could hear why you think 50 cent To me it sounds like a def jam track. Like I’m expecting to hear “Just Blaze!”
Hi How long have you been following Xg? And do you have a favorite member and song?
