The choreo for Left Right & Shooting Star were done by Keil Tutin and Sienna Lalau. And you probably already saw but it was announced that XG will be performing at the 88rising "Head in the Clouds" Festival in New York in May. It will be XG's first time ever not only being in the U.S., but also performing at a live concert / festival. XG is going to SLAY!
I hope XG will visit the ALPHAZ here in the PH 🇵🇭❤️
I didn’t know Sienna Lalau did the choreo, I first heard her name buzzing around because she’s Samoan like Paris Goebel and then I saw all the choreos she’s done and it’s insane (just like Paris I feel like it’s a guarantee hit if they choreo anything!!!)
@@kheshirekat9623 Kiel Tutin was apart of Parris's studio before he went out and became a choreographer for a lot of k pop groups, so he was able to combine his flow and a lot of parris style as well.
Finally, Crowns up.
I understand what he was trying to say. They don't dance like a gg but like a bg or even better a dance crew.
I finally got it when he said dance crew😂
Yeah girl groups are getting wayyyyy better and more varied choreography these days. It’s great!
Totally agree. He just articulated what I've been tryna express about them girls, I've only been able to say "they dance different but really good" 😁.
They’ve got swagger HC!
Yeah. It’s different from you expecting them to just be cute and sexy - like 2nd and early 3rd gen
i love how xg choreo isn’t afraid to step away from the typical “feminine” moves and step outside that zone that is often the expectation of girl groups’ choreo
They are Japanese and formed in Japan. Their parent company Avex(Japan's big label) cooperated with Kpop producer "Simon" and made XG. They had been mostly trained in Japan, and then moved to Korea to prepare for their debut, then have been based in Korea
Their pd "Simon" wants to mix Kpop system with jpop, western pop elements into XG
because he has three national backgrouds (korean father, Japanese mother, born in America)
and he has knowledge about kpop, jpop, western pop
XG has released only English songs from their debut single to approach the global music fans easily because they want to get fame and success globally(not only in Japan)
So they say they are "global girl group"
Smart on their end
Simon is also half Japanese....
XG is a Japanese girl-group formed under XGALX which is a subsidiary of AVEX and currently they are based out of Korea. They have been training for 5 years and most speak Japanese, English, and Korean. All are girls are Japanese however both Harvey and HInata are Hafu. Harvey (Amy goes by her last name as a stage name) is half Australian and Japanese while Hinata is Half Japanese and Korean. All of their releases have been in English and all of the young women stress that they are an international group. They always say when asked if they are Kpop or Jpop, they say that they are Global Pop (Gpop?). Anyhow, loved your reactions to this.
GPop or XPop
That fact that they have these formations with 7 members and they strategically place each member to the center whenever it's their turn, blows my mind.
Appreciate for checking out the dance practice for left Right because choreography looks flawless and beautiful facial Expressions and Stage presence in the isolations
Hip-hop dance is a compulsory subject in physical education classes from elementary to high school in Japan.😊
リアクション動画ありがとうございます😆
XG最高～💕
XG is the swaggest girl group i ever seen in the world, they are just hit different
On May 20th and 21st, XG will be performing at "Head In The Clouds" at Forest Hills Stadium in New York.、
Keil Tutin is one of the choreographers for this and many other groups in kpop, jpop etc.
Thank you for your lovely reactions!
I definitely think their dance is at a good level.💫
It's true that XG is based in South Korea, but multinational people are involved in the composition, lyrics, and choreography.
It's as if the producer Jakops was of mixed Korean and Japanese ancestry and grew up in America, so XG has many elements.
These girls trained together for 5 years before their debut so this accounts to their synchronicity and chemistry.
Thanks for supporting XG on your UA-cam channel ❤
The difference between XG and some other Kpop gg is the Textures of their movements it has varieties..You don’t see this type of dance crew choreography often..especially in a gg stand point..XG is bringing it back that late 90’s and early 2000’s western sounds with the kpop influenced(kpop influenced by the western world)..So XG is turning it back around to the 90’s and early 2000’s western musics with their own twist..That’s why all the members are influenced heavily by the western artist than the eastern artist(jpop,kpop etc)..
XG is jpop based with r&b and hiphop 90s that influence Japan un those times as hiphop and r&b got in Japan before kpop was copied from jpop. Simon (XG pd) said in an interview the reason why he decided to make the group under japanese members was that Japan have the best r&b and hiphop knowledge that's why the Japanese choreographers are widely known so all the members of Xag were chosen from a distinct entertainment company in Japan very know for hip-hop and r&b actually all Japanese music industry is know for that. Also kpop is the Jpop from the 70s that a Japanese entertainment company created and still used the system and standard even the beauty standard.any followed but after the bubble crushed idol industry in Japan changed and Koreans took it as theirs at the beginning they admitted but now not.
These young ladies trained for 5 years to become XG...IN COMPETITION! They started in 2017 and debuted in March of 2022. You can watch their story under the XTRA XTRA episodes.
i usually don't particularly love kiel's (the choreographer) choreographies imma be honest... but this???? he nailed this!! i don't understand why he doesn't put this much wow factor in the choreos for other groups bc this is super super super well done
Can you name the choreo he doesn’t put “wow factor” into?
@@kunikuzushis if you read my comment again you will realise the word "effort" is nowhere to be seen in there
@@lilsemanas true I will edit it! that doesn’t answer the question but never mind.
@@kunikuzushis again, i never said he didn't put the same effort in other choreos, he could have put the exact same effort or even more in other choreos, but, for me, this one is way way way more well done in terms of it being interesting and impressive to watch than most of what he has done for other groups in the past. for example, personally i love this choreo way more than any choreo he has created for blackpink before, which is a shame bc ik those girls surely could pull off way nicer choreos, and ik even other blinks (at least my blink mutuals on twitter) are a bit tired of the choreos they've been getting from him (it could honestly just be what yg and other companies ask him to do, maybe they put restrictions on the type of choreo they want or smth, not saying it's entirely his fault ofc).
but yeah to summarise i don't think he puts less effort in other choreographies, i just think they are far less impressive compared to this one. tbh i can't even think of any kpop choreography made by him that i like more than this one or that even comes close to this.
again, this is my opinion, and ik a loooot of ppl that think the exact same, and i'm not hating on him, i'd just love to see other groups getting routines as cool as this one!
@@lilsemanas I disagree purely on the fact that blackpink isn’t a dance oriented group (though lisa is obviously strong) so I just think they don’t look good doing his choreo as in if you have it to a group of stronger dancers, they would pull it off better. that being said, group choreos are never 1:1 as we see from choreographers uploading original choreo that the company decided to pick and choose which part they like from different choreo to fit the song or the group more. I just also find the hate he gets for something like “reusing choreo” (which is ?? considering it’s just a basic step or not more than a 2 count) silly from kpop fans who know little to nothing about dance and calling him bad hence my tone in my previous comments so I apologize for that. I love his ‘more & more’ choreo for twice; lots of “weird” or unconventional moves but they pull it off well because they’re strong performers and the dance break is one of my faves to this day from them.
They are not K-Pop they call themselves Global Girl Group simply because their target market is Global that’s why their songs are all in English. They are the best of this generation and I can seem them going so much big. Their passion and dedication is unreal #ALPHAZ
XG LETS GOOO!
6:10 Okayyy let's clear this up. Technically and in general, fr, XG is a GLOBAL group using a Kpop-idol system (synchronized dancing, aesthetics, video production & promotion wise are heavily based on the Kpop scene), singing a Western/American-style music BY a Japanese girl group. I'm new to them and heard bits of Mascara before but never liked it cause it sounds so fifth harmony (and it was promoted via Ad in YT videos). BUT SHOOTING STAR AND LEFT RIGHT??? DAMN, THEY CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. That's their entire image nowwww! They rock R&B and Hip Hop man!! And what's interesting is Simon Jakop, the Executive producer and producer of this group is a Japanese-Korean man BORN in Seattle, Washington, United States. DO YOU GUYS SEE IT NOWW??? Simon's roots is reflecting through XG's works! THIS IS FREAKIN AMAZING! You can tell that he's gonna be leading these girls high up to the stars! He had a great team this January comeback and I hope he keeps them cause jeeeeez I'm stayin with XG right after I gave them a chance to listen via UA-cam ad(again)! I hooooope the west, especially America give themselves the opportunity to look at them cause I see so many reaction vids from the african-american/black community recognizing and getting good vibes with the samples and rap flow they hear from the Rap team of XG! Just look at GALZ XYPHER vid!!
Their producer is a former kpop idol so he based their training and promotion off of the kpop model. They’re “not kpop” but they are heavily based off of kpop in terms of how they function as a group and where they promote (they promote on inkigayo and music bank) and do all of the kpop style promos even with other idols while their genre is explicitly hip-hop and r&b
XG WE CERTIFIED ✨

XG MOVE # 1-4
You are right, it's not K-pop. It is Us/UK pop circa 1900's to early 2000's. Most of their beats are off a classic Roland 808, unashamedly!
XG is a japanese girl group base in korea
The different versions are more on camera angles, concepts, locations, etc...the dance usually remains the same. Some have exceptions though...
Y'all look like a group of few people who's fun to have a round of shots with.
8.5? out of 10? 10 out of 10!

Por que de tantos risos?😏🤔
no kpop!..........it JPOP＝Old
Bro stop the video so I can hear you critic and u can see the video in its entirety 😅
Where is BTS?😂💗💗💗💗
yes we know. They describe themselves as a global group.
They only use Korean trainee system, Korean music business , Korean TV shows, Korean promotion system, Korean social media platforms and Korean fan system but this is NOT K-pop.
I find this sophistication a bit aloof and I don't quite understand the problem either.
XG has always said that their influences come from American hip hop and R&B music and artists of the late 90s and early 2000s (which still has a huge impact in Japan and a subculture there), they sing in English and their lyricists and composers are mainly western, these are the reasons that make them a Global group. This is not a problem, they're just trying to make their own thing and not be labeled as J-pop or Kpop💁♂
About XG: they were trained in Japan at Avex Artist Academy, then moved to XGALX (Avex Subsidiary) and traveled between Japan and Korea before moving there the last few years before their debut.
Idk what you mean by korean music business, since song production started around 2017 in Japan with a team from different countries mostly Americans, some of them are part of Avex USA (there are photos and videos on social networks that you can cross with Avex business reports to confirm it) and AVEX is in charge of the distribution of the CDs (they are also related to the group's fan App).
They started promotions on Korean music shows when they released Mascara, and during that time they also appeared on TV in Japan, where they were interviewed via Zoom (I don't know if they appeared on *TV* elsewhere, but they did some interviews for different magazines and media in countries such as the US, Brazil, Indonesia and India, among others). Since Tippy Toes they have *promoted mainly through social networks* like Tik tok, UA-cam, Twitter and Facebook (those are not Korean by the way).
In addition to promoting through interviews with different media from many countries, they are promoting on the radio in Japan and the United States (currently Top 40 on the Mediabase Top 40 Radio Airplay Chart).
I also don't know what you mean by Korean fan system, since idol culture originated in Japan and I don't see any particular difference from a J-pop group so far (fan part) 🤔
XG is currently based in Korea, but they work with people from different countries and the origins of the group are in Japan since they are part of an Avex project (if anyone is interested, you can search the company reports). Your comment makes it seem like it's all thanks to the Korean industry (sorry if that's not the case), which is not true. They have said that they are grateful to be able to work from that country, but that should not be used to erase or belittle the work (or inspiration) that other people and companies have put into this group.
XG is a global HipHop/R&B girls group.
Synchronized dance 칼군무 or formation dance is one of the characteristics of Kpop, so Westerners not familiar with the Asian music market would probably say XG is a Kpop group.
In South Korea, the relatively small size of the Korean domestic market has led to a strong global activities using UA-cam and SNS, which has given Kpop a high degree of recognition outside of South Korea.
In Japan, the Japanese domestic market is relatively large, and the mainstream of promotional activities are at Japanese entertainment TV shows that are not distributed over the Internet. In addition, in Japan, unless they are rock band groups, music groups appearing on Japanese music TV shows are skewed toward female idol groups produced by Akimoto Yasushi and male idol groups from the Johnny's agency.
Talented dance&vocal groups from Japanese entertainment companies such as avex and RISING PRO are not well known in Japan or internationally because of the few opportunities for them to appear on Japanese TV programs.
Famous training schools in Japan, like avex artist academy and RISING studio have been around for a long time. Okinawa Actor’s School, Actor’s School HIROSHIMA ,and EXPG are also well known in Japan.
XG was created by the company funded by avex. As mentioned above, although all members of XG are Japanese nationals, it is quite difficult to perform music widely in the current domestic Japanese market. Seattle-born Japanese-Korean XG's producer combines the Korean and Japanese training systems, and he is promoting to all around the world including appearances on Kpop music programs distributed on UA-cam.
Due to the delicate situation between Korea and Japan, XG's producer is in the process of setting up promotional activities through trial and error.
I don't think you can call it "Spanish music" just because it is pop music sung in Spanish. Even the music of American artists can be debated as to what category of music it belongs to.
Do we have to classify XG as music from any single country just because all the lyrics to their songs are in English, or because of their prominent appearances on Korean music shows, or because they are a group created by a company funded by a Japanese company?
From the beginning until now, XG has explained through lyrics the music they want to do.
I think it would be a good idea for those who have hard ideas about music to listen to XG's music and try to understand what they say.
The producer/ ceo Simon Jakops( Japan Korea Produced by Simon) is half korean half japanese. His vision was always global and transcendant.
Produced in Korea, Japanese members, singing in English. I still consider it Kpop.
lol. That weren't produce in Korea tho. Do more research 😅
@@belikearu check their last recording video
@@Department_of_Justice Don't be ignorant, If you're talking about 'Simon' then he's korean-Japanese and he's one of the producers along w/ Xansei (Japanese) and folks from Atlanta. lol
@@belikearu Kpop is an industry, they are IN that system. They are primarily speaking in Korean, promoting on K shows for Kcharts and are IN Korea. It's Kpop any way u slice it
You sound high tho. Nobody mentions about KPOP being an industry which you sound like they're the only industry exist 😅 Were talking about their producers which you definitely have no idea about.
