yes!!! even when i was showing my wife these songs it hit me like a ton a bricks, so good that they can make you feel this way. def something special 🔥
@@Blackkboltsamareacts I swear I just commented on their original video that I cried, because I feel so proud of them and oddly, proud of myself. I feel so happy that they've been setting the bar so high for themselves and this song needs to chart as no1 on billboard!
XG is actually an ELITE Xpop Group. Everything Simon delivers has just exceed my expectations. The JAZZ BASS Intro was 🔥. I appreciate every Michael Jackson’s music 🎼 reference. I loved MJ and I know they all do to. Simon definitely knows how to highlight each member. This Beautiful MV deserves an award. 🏹🌱🪴🌺🌘 Yep they’re GALACTIC Wolves 🐺💫🪐. I enjoyed your Reaction.
Thank you for your comment!! YAS!! the moon walk reference was so good! I feel like they have been sprinkling more of that MJ references through out their stuff right? UGH so freaking good! and this music video was everything it said so much in so little time, it was so cinematic and so freaking sick. Literally a movie and yes i agree it deserves an award cause omg it was 🔥GALACTIC Wolves is so sickkkkk🐺🪐
I’m anime lover too!!!! And follow XG corporate lots of anime references in their music is crazyyyyy, glad to find your reaction here 😂❤ I saw lots of Ghibli’s film here like Princess Mononoke, Howl’s moving castle, Nausicaa, and maybe possible Memories /Akira from Otomo 😭🔥
OMG YES! Glad to have you here!! OMG i didnt even realize the references from Princess Mononoke till you said that, literally felt like connecting the dots lmao i love that 😭🔥 It makes me realize how much i love this group even more 😭
This is like a anime story line made into a live action 3 minute movie and what a masterpiece! Every single frame is art. Jaw dropping CGI married to a sonic blend of Jazz, hip hop, garage, drill, rap, and vocal harmony soundtrack that is jarring and overwhelming and emotional and mind blowing. This what GRL GVNG could have aspired to if it had been made into a full length production with a storyline instead of the shortened and confusing music video that was released. Every time XG releases something, I end up loving it. This has surpassed every previous release. Extraordinary!
Yes!!! I def felt that this video was like a mini cinematic movie it was insane, like it literally felt like a movie in 3 minutes. and i def agree with your statement about GRL GVNG. So freaking good they really sep themselves to be something special in their own right ❤
XG is so hard to categorize. All Japanese, studied in the K-Pop system, sing in English. They do tend to eschew a lot of the traditional K-Pop sounds for a more blend of western sounds with their own style. I always go with how they define themselves as X-Pop. No matter what it's just excellent music.
They are literally perf in that sense!! I love that they sep themselves to be their own unique sound. I think thats mainly the reason why I love them so much, it's like they are the jack of all trades. but more than anything excellent music for sure 🔥
1. Producers: Simon Jakops (real name Park Jun-ho), Knave, Lyricks, Chancellor (also all Korean). By the way, "JAKOPS" stands for "Japan/Korea/Production/System" which he explained. His father is Korean, his mother is also ethnically Korean but was raised in Japan. For those who don't know the history of Japan/Korea, Koreans must change their names to Japanese names by mandate in order to be legally accepted and not to be discriminated against but they still are. For example, "Yoshihiro Akiyama" is an MMA figher from Japan who's Korean family name is "Choo Sung Hoon." There are literally millions just like him. Many Japanese after generations don't even know they are Korean because their ancestors had to hide it. Anyway... MV Producer/Director: Cho Gi-seok(Korean), who did Woke Up and others. 2. XG is made possible by the Kpop system, but not Korean girls. Similar to Katseye, Niziu, VCHA, Blackswan... If XG isn't Kpop, then neither is Kayseye, Niziu, VCHA, Blackswan. If those groups are Kpop, then so is XG. You decide...
the intro feels like Cowboy Bebop, also Princess Mononoke was written all over it, they reference Memories (1995), Ghost in the Shell, Spirited Away... so many anime references.... we even got The Matrix, Hunger Games, Michael Jackson's Thriller and Earth Son❤g❤
OMG i'm glad i wasnt the only one!! 😅 and no but i've seen some clips and really want to go, especially now that they've released this album. I've seen them do acoustic version of songs and I literally died. LOL and yasss i recorded that one and another vid too ill upload that one tonight or tomm morning!
Its like a hybrid of old school jazz, drill sounds with a hybrid mix of rap and flawless vocals with stunning visuals!!!!!! It's an all around Artistic Orgasm of input!!!!
As usual, they carried through with the alien wolves theme. Each member plays a different role in leading the warrior wolves into battle to defeat the controlling entity and bring freedom and new life to this planet.
@@jenyanc they do that theme justice, and in realizing this you are right i never realized that they always include some sort of controlling entity. thank you for the insight!
At this point, comparing them to any Kpop group or calling them Kpop is an insult to their calibre of talent. They're like kobe grade beef in a world of big macs. XG is on a diff level, cruising in their own lane out of everyone's league. They're Xpop, becus they're so unique they created own genre.
I got fucking emotional aswell!!! Being a anime lover and seeing the amount of time and effort gone into this MV IS MESMORIZINGGGG!!! The girls continue to top themselves and it gets me tearing up seeing how far they’ve come !!! And how far they are ahead of everyone !!!!
YES EXACTLY THIS!!!! I've been following them since their tippy toes and cypher days and the amount of strides they have been doing in just a few years has been amazing to see.. I'm so happy to see i am not the only one ❤🩹
When she was going her verses over this part of the video it gave me chills!!! And whats crazy to me is how she delivers these hard flows like she keeps getting better and better! 🔥
XG 👽is X-POP, not K-POP. AH-WOO-WOO-WOO~~~🐺 Please introduce as X-POP from now on ❣ It is new and original music, This XG work of art has never been seen before in K-POP or J-POP❣🐺🐺
yes they really are!!! its so good to see them go above and beyond after every release which is so crazy to see, they have not regressed what so ever 🔥
I love all their songs but this is probably my fav now. Love the chorus and howling part. Rap and vocals are perfect in this one. Also the Mv is amazing
This is the trifecta of hitting everything all at once, this was a generational experience! If they don't win MV of the year idk what to think cause that was insane..
Most people noticed Princess Mononoke in the MV, but I would say some themes of this MV are very similar to Wolf's Rain (literally wolves and flowers...) and Origin:Spirits of the Past (that dragon, and sentient flowers?) An honorable mention would be Jin Roh (with the red goggly eyes in the dark, and I mean the name of the movie literally translates to Wolf brigade). Love the references and the deep dive into anime details.
That is so sick!!! I think i had read someones comment that this wasn't a music video, that this was an experience and it def felt that way SO SICK I hope someone makes a vid of all the anime references because it seems to run really deep 🐺🐺🐺🐺
There are a lot of homages to anime, and it's so cool！MEMORIES by Katsuhiro Otomo, Ghost in the Shell by Mamoru Oshii, Princess Mononoke by Hayao Miyazaki, and many more. I am Alphas and an anime fan. Thanks for the reaction.I'm using automatic translation, so if it's hard to read.
No worres I understood every word, thank you for watching! I didn't even know that there were more references of anime in this music video! thank you for catching that and sharing!!! it amazes me how much attention they put to their videos!
Honestly when this first dropped it got me emotional too that I didnt understand it.. cause I have never felt that way about a girl group song. But thinking about it afterwards, its because they came such a longs way.. and in their path is full of other mediocre but popular because of “hype”. Its almost like I can feel? Visualize ? their journey. I wish them all the the best and more!! And now i know im not the only one that gets emotional over a song that isnt even about anything sad lolol.
@@sailormo_on this!!!! Yes that’s exactly why I felt the way I felt.. ugh I’m such a proud alpha to see them where they are now 😭 it’s an emotional reaction stemmed from being proud 🥹
I am 100% sure that XG decided to pay homage to Miyazaki Hayao San, and Studio Ghibli in this video, I bet they had a meeting and talked about where they have seen wolves in their lives, and Mononoke hime (Princess Mononoke) is full of white female wolves. Mononoke Princess is about a young woman of the forest that fights to protect the balance of nature from the destruction of mankind. Throughout the video Jurin represents Mononoke hime. The QR code (invented in japan) is dissolved and Mononoke Princess (nature princess) is revealed underneath. The brown monsters with red eyes are also represented in the anime. The dragon in front of the full moon might be from Spirited Away, dragons in japan are believed to be the benefactors and protectors of mankind. In old Japan there was a belief that the souls of people alive or dead could take the form of a butterfly. Therefore any butterfly that entered a house was treated respectfully. Mermaids are actually also a japanese thing within shinto folklore a creature called Ningyo is a person with half human half fish. They represent harmony. The mermaid idea in Japan might stem from early books imported from Holland, about european sailors seeing mermaids at sea. In the end, the nature princess touches the ground and everything turns green and full of flours, In the anime Mononoke hime the huge deer spirit of the forest does the exact same thing, everything it touched blooms.
Wow thats some awesome insight! I didnt know all this information so thank you for letting me know! It's so crazy the attention to detail there was in this video and all the influences that went into making this video. This is the reason why they sep themselves from everyone else it is so night and day🔥
YASSSS, i saw this on twitter with Jurin and Princess Mononoke which i didnt recognize at first but the reference was so goooood i can't believe i missed that! 🔥
DUDE YES!!! 🔥🔥🔥 I had to go back and listen to it again a few times because their word play in those verses are insane!!!! And they deliver those verses so perf too like damn 🔥🔥🔥
Im so glad their company is investing a lot in them. Like there is branding, a vision. So insane. Oh, and if you loved this, I think you're gonna love Armageddon by aespa too!
Yas, I think they've really stepped it up for this comeback and I am all here for it!! UGH I've heard but haven't seen the video.. should i still react to it??
Flowers and plants remind me of Hells Paradise Then there's Princess mononoke and Shenron like dragon.. Even Cocona's skeleton outfit remind me of Deathnote.
thats what that reminds me of!!! I missed the Hells paradise that is so hard and yes the skeleton outfit for cocona is so on point, thank you for letting me know!
First thing loved your reaction. Second if you started with XG then you may have already spoiled yourself in terms of other K-pop style groups. There are definitely other talented groups out there but XG is beyond them on almost every level in my opinion. Whether it’s the compositions, vocal performance, rap performance, the skill at dancing, visuals and their entire theme and concept I believe they dominate utterly. And they can pull all of this off live. Howling, Is this love and In the Rain are all superb in my opinion.
Thank you for watching! Yeah I think so too.. I often find myself from what I already listen to, comparing them and it is night and day. I agree with everything that they bring to the table no one comes close. This wasn't even a music video it felt more like an experience LOL and yes!!! those 3 songs have been on repeat since release!!!
Im saying! I always say from the stuff they release that i have a new fav song but it always is short lived when they drop more stuff lol can't be mad at that though they just keep getting better and better
well their producer is Korean that is already well versed in kpop producing system. The benefit of not really coming from kpop industry is that they can freely explore creativity, thus resulting in this kind of masterpiece.
XG is one of those groups that have spoiled other groups for me. lol their B-Sides/ prereleases are on the same level of other group's title tracks! I'm trying so hard to be really objective about it, coz even some of my favorite groups in KPop aint releasing anything CLOSE to what XG is putting out. They're really different. wtf.
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! And this is no disrespect to any other groups because they put out amazing stuff. XG is always putting quality and different ways and that is what really makes them special. And its not like they specialize in anything specific, the fact that they put quality in all of their songs its what really makes them diff than the rest 🔥
@@camrolaguardia YAS and i was telling my wife who hasnt seen the video yet that they keep leveling up it is insane.. Like i always think there is no way they can top what they did and then they blow me away lmao!!
YASSSSS!!! Her outfit is so sick and once i finished reacting i googled it cause i couldnt put my finger on who she reminded me of. So freaking good! ❤
Subscribed. Great performance and reaction! If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique and have a worldwide fan base (The One). Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance: BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL) Or: Babymetal - Monochrome (PIA Arena 2023 Live) Eng Subs 🖖 ❤
Thank you for watching!! oh I'll def take a look! I want to say they have featured in one of the bands that I listen to (bring me the horizon) but i cant remember but they are def in the realm of what I listen to (metal) 🤣 Gonna look forward to those reactions thank you for the suggestion!
@@Blackkboltsamareacts Yes, the song was Kingslayer, one of my favorites. I will leave a couple of more suggestion that are a bit heaver. I believe you will enjoy them. Babymetal - Kagerou (Legend MM 2024 Live) Eng Subs BABYMETAL | Rondo of Nightmare (w/ Mischiefs of Metal Gods Intro) 🖖❤
That's not true, aespa imitated XG's early song Grl Gang, and aespa's video director also says that he was inspired by XG. Musically and in terms of ability, aespa is nowhere near XG❤ I also like aespa, but XG has a different dimension and level! Just listen and you'll understand❤
@@슬픔의슬픔의대륙 you clearly dont know the concept that xg debuted, totaly diferent of atual concept of them, and much more like aespa debut and comebacks concept. xg doesn't have the same sound engeneering that aespa and production of music. so please stop hating on aespa. they debuted FIRST with que futuristic concept
OMG YAS! I've been wanting to do those, even though ive listened to them (i have them for my workouts lol) I haven't seen their videos so it'll be a first! more to come! I'll look to react to those soon!!!
Yo alphaz!! Subbed. Yeah it hit me too. The girls only competition is with themselves at this point. They keep pushing the envelope and step it up.🫡🐺🛸👽✌️
I LOOOVED this reaction so much! Cause mine was exactly the same, you conveyed my exact feelings for what they're doing and how they are doing it. There's nobody like them and the moment you see this it hits you how much hard work they have behind and how hugely they have grown, it's impressive 🥹🤧🫂💞
I really wanna hear the rapline go off in Japanese. They're already perfect in English but they are still held back by not spitting in their native language. Imagine.... :')

Don't worry man, literally every song by XG always has me emotional bro! Idk what it is about them, but they are truly something special for sure.
yes!!! even when i was showing my wife these songs it hit me like a ton a bricks, so good that they can make you feel this way. def something special 🔥

Yas, I think they've really stepped it up for this comeback and I am all here for it!! UGH I've heard but haven't seen the video.. should i still react to it??
It got me emotional as well. You're not alone. I think our body was so blown that we had to tear up 😅 awoooooo
YASSSS! Glad I decided to share, and super happy i can relate to more ppl with this reaction ❤
ALPHAZ ON DE🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Awooooooooooo🐺🐺🐺🐺
Genuine reaction, I like it.
Thank you so much!!
Xg🔥
XGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG🔥
Flowers and plants remind me of Hells Paradise
Then there's Princess mononoke and Shenron like dragon..
Even Cocona's skeleton outfit remind me of Deathnote.
thats what that reminds me of!!! I missed the Hells paradise that is so hard and yes the skeleton outfit for cocona is so on point, thank you for letting me know!
First thing loved your reaction.
Second if you started with XG then you may have already spoiled yourself in terms of other K-pop style groups. There are definitely other talented groups out there but XG is beyond them on almost every level in my opinion. Whether it’s the compositions, vocal performance, rap performance, the skill at dancing, visuals and their entire theme and concept I believe they dominate utterly. And they can pull all of this off live. Howling, Is this love and In the Rain are all superb in my opinion.
Thank you for watching!
Yeah I think so too.. I often find myself from what I already listen to, comparing them and it is night and day. I agree with everything that they bring to the table no one comes close. This wasn't even a music video it felt more like an experience LOL and yes!!! those 3 songs have been on repeat since release!!!
私も涙が出ました。
これはDNAの振動！
同じ反応を共有できて嬉しいです！ご覧いただきありがとうございます!
XG does not follow the traditional “K-pop sound” that’s why all their music is so fire 🔥🐺
I def agree with this, so special to see 🔥
Juria, Hinata, Chisa, Maya, and Cocona did the chorus
This is so insane that they all did that chorus, its so mesmerizing!!
With XG, they always top what they previously release. Gotta get used to it lol
Im saying! I always say from the stuff they release that i have a new fav song but it always is short lived when they drop more stuff lol can't be mad at that though they just keep getting better and better
well their producer is Korean that is already well versed in kpop producing system. The benefit of not really coming from kpop industry is that they can freely explore creativity, thus resulting in this kind of masterpiece.
Yes def, and honestly it makes me so proud to see how far they’ve come 🥹
I cry too
Glad we cried together ❤❤❤
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
it's lot anime reference in this MV
Yes it was so sick seeing this!! ❤️
Xubs for XG!
LETS GOO I APPRECIATE YOU!!
Awoooooooooooooooo
That's how we howling, growling, wildin!!!
🥹❤️🔥🐺🤍
TRULY A MASTERPIECE 😭🔥🤍
XG is one of those groups that have spoiled other groups for me. lol their B-Sides/ prereleases are on the same level of other group's title tracks! I'm trying so hard to be really objective about it, coz even some of my favorite groups in KPop aint releasing anything CLOSE to what XG is putting out. They're really different. wtf.
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! And this is no disrespect to any other groups because they put out amazing stuff. XG is always putting quality and different ways and that is what really makes them special. And its not like they specialize in anything specific, the fact that they put quality in all of their songs its what really makes them diff than the rest 🔥
@@Blackkboltsamareacts tbh, i just wanna see the profit margins. lol coz it feels like they just putting everything onto the next project lmao
@@camrolaguardia YAS and i was telling my wife who hasnt seen the video yet that they keep leveling up it is insane.. Like i always think there is no way they can top what they did and then they blow me away lmao!!
👍🔥🔥🔥🐺🐺🐺🤣
🔥🔥🔥
Isn't Jurin remind you of Mononoke Hime?
YASSSSS!!! Her outfit is so sick and once i finished reacting i googled it cause i couldnt put my finger on who she reminded me of. So freaking good! ❤
Do you know the anime Tower of God? For this anime, the group Stray Kids released as many as 4 tracks, please react to them too
I've heard of the anime but have yet to see it! wait stray kids has 4 tracks for that anime, what?! I'll add this to my list!!
Subscribed. Great performance and reaction! If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique and have a worldwide fan base (The One). Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance:
BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL)
Or:
Babymetal - Monochrome (PIA Arena 2023 Live) Eng Subs 🖖 ❤
Thank you for watching!! oh I'll def take a look! I want to say they have featured in one of the bands that I listen to (bring me the horizon) but i cant remember but they are def in the realm of what I listen to (metal) 🤣 Gonna look forward to those reactions thank you for the suggestion!
@@Blackkboltsamareacts Yes, the song was Kingslayer, one of my favorites. I will leave a couple of more suggestion that are a bit heaver. I believe you will enjoy them.
Babymetal - Kagerou (Legend MM 2024 Live) Eng Subs
BABYMETAL | Rondo of Nightmare (w/ Mischiefs of Metal Gods Intro) 🖖❤
@@IAMisLove YAS ok i thought so, i'll def be checking it out thanks again :)
if you liked this video, im sure you're going to like "aespa - armageddon", its older then howling and you can really see the inspiration
I'm gonna react to this soon!! I will check it out 🤍
That's not true, aespa imitated XG's early song Grl Gang, and aespa's video director also says that he was inspired by XG.
Musically and in terms of ability, aespa is nowhere near XG❤
I also like aespa, but XG has a different dimension and level! Just listen and you'll understand❤
@@슬픔의슬픔의대륙 you clearly dont know the concept that xg debuted, totaly diferent of atual concept of them, and much more like aespa debut and comebacks concept. xg doesn't have the same sound engeneering that aespa and production of music. so please stop hating on aespa. they debuted FIRST with que futuristic concept
Please react to AESPA music videos!!!
Drama, Armageddon, Supernova, Whiplash )))
OMG YAS! I've been wanting to do those, even though ive listened to them (i have them for my workouts lol) I haven't seen their videos so it'll be a first! more to come! I'll look to react to those soon!!!
Yo alphaz!! Subbed. Yeah it hit me too. The girls only competition is with themselves at this point. They keep pushing the envelope and step it up.🫡🐺🛸👽✌️
Yooo literally!!! No one even comes close they honestly are in a separate category, thank you for the sub i appreciate you!!! 🫡🫡🫡
I LOOOVED this reaction so much! Cause mine was exactly the same, you conveyed my exact feelings for what they're doing and how they are doing it. There's nobody like them and the moment you see this it hits you how much hard work they have behind and how hugely they have grown, it's impressive 🥹🤧🫂💞
Omg literally this!!! This is why I got emotional 😭 I am a proud alpha reacting to this video 🥹❤️
@Blackkboltsamareacts Feel ya' 🥺🐺✨️
I really wanna hear the rapline go off in Japanese. They're already perfect in English but they are still held back by not spitting in their native language. Imagine.... :')
OMG this would actually go insane! I wonder if they would ever consider doing songs in their native language, that would be so sick ❤
