  • Babymonster's debut left sour taste in people's mouths as it felt underwhelming and boring. What happened and why did YG once again waste a unique potential of a group for the sake of the old YG formula?!

    Batter up isn't a bad song on its own, it's just a bad song for Baemon. I could imagine Blackpink singing this as a B-side or a collab/ad/soundtrack. But it just doesn't do well as a debut song for a highly anticipated group, and this particular flavor of badass concept doesn't fit Babymonster at all because, well, it's cringe af when a 14 year old who's literally just debuted acts like this. Blackpink were all adults during their debut and it was one of the reasons why that concept worked for them from the beginning. Not to mention all 4 BP girls have the it factor, from the first MV it's easy to tell each of their personalities, their style, even facial features are strikingly different. It's one of the reasons why it's so easy to dive into that Blackpink rabbit hole and why many non-kpop fans like Blackpink and can easily tell them apart. It's like "yeah, it's Lisa, the fun unpredictable one, and that's Jisoo, the elegant beauty". That's what Babymonster lacked in Batter up. Their styling really isn't helping either. It might have been better if Ahyeon was there, she'd probably go viral, and the group would start around her before the others develop their style, similar to Ive and Wonyoung. But right now... it's a mess.

    Debuts are what puts groups on the map, it get their name out and shows the public what to expect from a group if you look at other debuts like Twice, Aespa, TXT, BTS etc. all their debuts showcased what music they would be producing (it’s not till well into their years that they may change their sound) so people saying just wait for the next one is why it’s a problem. If groups are figuring out what their sound is after their debut it’s poorly managed; this debut was disappointing and it’s the majority that are voicing this not just a few.

    2ne1 is the og blueprint, so YG keeps making a reprint of the "badass/swag" and it obvious with the beat, style and strong choreo. Their girlgroup concept won't stay relevant because people will get bored and forget them. Look at newjeans/gidle, for example, they keep changing their concepts, which makes people thrilled about what their next concept might be.

    To his credit, he worked both for 2ne1 and Blackpink but he was able to give very distinct identities to both groups. He knows how to highlight and maximize the potential of each member.

    I think the reason of the postponement is Ahyeon's hiatus.

YG knew that they postponed the debut tooooo many times. If they did it again, they will lose a lot of babymonster's new fans and of course- money. So they made 6 members debut with a backup song from the YG library and we need to wait for a proper one in the future.

    The only thing I'll say is just to remind people that it's nice to have hope of the "wait and see" mentality since this is their debut. However, we must remember that this is a YG group. YG groups have comebacks every 2 years at the lastest. That's my only concern here. If this is their debut and they're not promoting, and given YG's track record regarding comebacks, what will happen to the group? Just food for thought.

    as a Blackjack and former Blink i need to say that they screwed up the brand they had created.
    1. they are no longer creative and fashionable, their music has been the same for 7 years. They always said about quality but they dont have it.
    2. They constantly delay everything, thinking that they are not threatened by competition. Wake up ! you are not the only music label in Korea and no one will wait years for a song or album.
    3. is a music label that does not release music and they don't promote groups enough...everywere .
    4. you managed to promote BlackPink with minimal involvement. Yes girls are famous yes they have record on spotify and youtube and etc but they don't have songs for which people will remember them for years, they will remember the lack of satisfaction from the most famous group in history.

    for the record, I'm a fan of 2nd gen (2ne1) and have been looking forward to baemon since they've said in an announcement that baemon would debut with a strong hiphop concept but this really is not it. I hoped that before they debuted, the company didn't push their hip-hop agenda to these girls. I hoped that they would've tried to find the voice color of these girls first or start with a soft concept first then eventually transition to girl crush when they are READY for the stronger concepts. Not saying they can't do the bad ass but their age really shows in the mv and the way they present themselves. idk but the hiphop side seems forced to them except for the rappers. Or they could've released 2 title tracks like what they did with BP to show another side of these girls. I really feel bad for these girls. YGE should really stop relying on their traditional techniques and try to keep up with the market trends. For a company who is a pioneer of girlcrush in kpop, YGE is lacking right now.

    I think using “ wasted potential “ is not yet accurate. It’s just the debut and there is much much more to come. It’s only the debut song and this doesn’t need to define the group. I agree that YG should’ve had a much better concept for babymonster showcasing their abilities . But we should look forward to other songs before making statements about whether the group is actually successful or not . YG seriously needs to work on their promotions if they want the gg to succeed. Let’s also not ignore the immense pressure on girls. All in all the girls have great abilities and i hope YG ups their game and not waste them like bp.

    YG just keeps recycling 2NE1's concept. It worked with Blackpink, so I guess he figured he'd just do the same thing again. But no. YG stans have been sick of it, and all the new people Blackpink brought in don't want YG giving their new girl group what sounds like a reworked Blackpink b-side. For all the songs YG claims to have commissioned for Baby Monster, it doesn't seem like he used any of them.
    As usual, these companies are good at training people, but when it comes to actual group management, they tend to suck. The talent of the members can carry the group for a big label like YG, but smaller labels have so much wasted potential all the time. So many talented groups disband every year due to lack of exposure and poor management decisions. Luck also plays a huge role in all this. Being part of a huge label like YG removes the luck aspect. You're pretty much guaranteed success to some extent. But for their numbers to be like this even with all those advantages is not a good sign.

    I think YG was waiting until negotiations with BP were over before debuting BM. Unfortunately, the negotiations lasted longer than expected and didn't turn out as they wanted. YG probably switched BM's original concept last minute to fill in the BP missing piece. If so, it was definitely the wrong move and can hopefully be fixed/revamped with their next release.

    IMO, YG rushed the debut because they weren't ready. Like you said in the video, batter up gonna act like a pre-debut song and they will probably have their 'debut song" with Aeyeon when she ready. Let's be honest, the song wasnt that bad (7/10). My only problems and concerns is that 1- The song wasnt heavy centered vocals (prob gonna wait for the 'real debut" with Aeyeon and 2- The absence of any promotion and appearance on shows.

    This video is spot on for how I feel about baby monsters debut. Please I hope YG sees all the responses and starts thinking differently. They need fresh minds because the trend that new jeans, IVE, Les serrafim, kiss of life, Gidle etc they are all trying new things/refreshing concepts that work for their group. YG is trying to create the same fucking group every time when it came to 2NEI then Black Pink and now Baby monster when they are kids who don’t even fit the hard concepts. When I saw the MV and they were trying so hard to act like they hard was just so cringe and sad to watch. They have too much talent and it might go to waste because of YGs not letting in new minds to help the group find their actual sound/color. The songs they sang to in their survival program fits their vibes more so idk how he thought let’s let them do girl crush vibes when they are 14-20 years old. The only one that may fit the vibe is ruka but everyone else has a softer appearance.

    Whatever you might think of JYP, at least they know how to do a survival show and succesful debut. Have the timing of the broadcast line up so that the girls can release their first pre-debut song right after the survival show final. Get a few more pre-debut songs ready and keep fans engaged with behind the scenes videos. This gives the company time to work on a big debut off screen, while the audience gets content to keep them interested. The formula is right there, so I don't understand why YG dropped the ball this hard with Babymonster.

Let wait for her to come back then we can judge if they are actually wasting their potentials or they just cover it up for Ahyeon.
