I speak Korean and know enough Japanese to get in trouble. They're sliding from English to Korean to Japanese fluidly without losing cadence or sounding corny(I'm Korean and I find KPop corny...sometimes AsF). They're spitting in Korean...trust me. They're all saying some things to the haters. I love it. Cadence on point and that's hard to do.
I was the one who donated for this reaction to XG tape 2 and I knew both of you would love it. Thank you!! When you are able to, please do Shooting Star, Winter without You, all their Xypher and move tapes. Also The Hesonoo x X-Gene (performance video). Honestly everything they do whether it is rap, sing, dance is all super duper 🔥🔥🔥 Thanks again and love your breakdowns and reactions!
You guys can't go wrong with anything from XGs catalog, they have no skips!! But off catalog... you have to check out Cocona & Maya doing a song called "Show you Can". They even had a part in it writing the lyrics!
I love how they rhyme English with their Japanese and Korean keeping the flow and still have meaning and makes sense. This is hard.

TAPE 2 GALZ XYPHER * Chotto - Japanese for Stop/Little, Motto - Japanese for Go/More. "When they see you they say Chotto, When they see me they say Motto" * Takin' no L's and giving no F's, Mmh, Mmh (never will be marked a Loser cause we winning, giving no F's meaning not that they care what haters think!) * Don’t be bitter, be better * Never miss a beat freakin' misdemeanor (legal charge for beating someone up, but tied to music beat, ref to Missy Elliott who was called misdemeanour) * Popping on them 808's (808's are 1980's rap rhythm composer equipment Roland TR-808) * Here for the throne, Khaleesi Flow (Queen, Game of Thrones) * I got to keep winning like an Elon Must (Musk) * We on the come up, While they goin' down, down bad (call out to Down Bad, OG beat Maya is rapping over) * Cocona's low tone is absolute perfect; add Harvey's unique/real voice for some pure "Umami" taste; Maya's authentic/fast speed/clarity and top it off with Jurin's leader aura! * Good rap followup to this one is "”Woke Up”, and “Show You Can" soundtrack for Street Women Fighter 2 (dance competition show in Korea) with Maya/Cocona - Duke
Don't think they said chotto, they said jouto which is like 'good job'/good effort , but when they see me they go 'motto' /more as in ' i need more'. You'd be able to recognize the CH sound.
DEF CHECKOUT TAPE #3-A and TAPE #3-B…..trust. XG GOT NO SKIPS IN THEIR CATALOGUE. They provide a different vibe on every song. They do the pop/hip hop/r&b thing better than anyone and that’s because of their level of talent, aesthetic, and attitude.
Thank you for putting respect on Harvey. I get it, her tone isn't for everybody but you can't deny she slides on her beat. They all eat on this MF tho. XG rapline is elite. Nice reaction ✌🏾
ALPHAZ on DECK! 🐺 Another great reaction guys. I enjoy watching your XG journey and the enthusiasm for these girls' talents. Appreciate the analysis and insights.
When they see you they go "less", when they see me they go "more", chotto and motto are japanese words. They have all kind of flavors : If you want to continue into their rap side you can't go wrong with the tapes (Tape 3A and 3B and all the tapes 4, one for each and a last one with the four rappers together), but you can hear them sing with Vox (the other three vocalists share the VOX 1 to 6 together). You can even see them dance in their "move" videos (Move 2 especially where they each have one). Other than that, their actual music as a group is fire and cover a lot of genres with a Y2K twist : RNB with Left Right, Vogue with TGIF, 2000's party cookout rap song with New Dance. The song most similar to Woke up is probably "Girl gang". Beware, the MV is cut short due to budget, you can watch an ASL version or a lyrics version to listen to the all song.
2:19 They rapping with 3 languages (English, Japanese and Korean) so smoothly and their rapping flow is crazy that's make XG so different with others group.
React to Maya and Cocona from XG’s “Show You Can” it’s not on their channel because they wrote and performed it for dance battle tv show in Korea called Street Woman Fighter” so look for the Lyrics video
You will love Tape 3A&3B and Tape 4 (they each have their own tape 4) are almost all in English so you can vibe the whole way without translation concerns
ALPHAZ ON DECK!👽🤍🐺 Great reaction guys. Next up on the list is [XG TAPE #3-A] Two Tens.🔥👀 The girls kick off their US tour this Friday (10/04) in Las Vegas. They then head to Los Angeles (10/06), San Francisco (10/08 - 10/09), Grand Prairie (10/12), Sugar Land (10/14), Duluth (10/16), New York City (10/18) and finish in Chicago (10/21). It would be great if you could go see them and then tell us about your experience.🙌🏻
Long time sub. Y’all really going to lose your minds over tape 3a and 3b. Just saying. Also song with maya and cocona called “sure you can” is fire on another level. Don’t make us wait so long for the next XG reaction!
Did you spot the wordplay about cocona being the new genesis. Ot genesis wit' his song "coco." Jurins line, "when they see you they go joto, when they see me they go moto!" JOTO- in Japanese in a slang context can mean fine, or good MOTO- in Japanese means "more. " Like in intensity or an increase in something. Like more energy, more fire." So in essence she's saying when they see you they're like, "nice" or "okay not bad." But when they see her their mind is blown, she's such a higher intensity, more exciting, they crave even more so to speak...
'When they see you, they go chotto (just a little bit). When they see me, they go motto (more!)' - Jurin The theme for all 4 ladies was vampire goddess! VOX #1 next!👊🐺✌️
Hold onto your speakers, The Japanese have arrived. You can't fault anything from XG. There is so much talent, and I'm sure there are more surprises to come in due course. Maya is a bad ass MC and great all-around artist. XG have a winning formula and are uniting countries regardless of race or culture. I just wish they'd place globally in the charts and keep the rewards they so truly deserve. A brilliant breakdown and supportive vibe Alphaz 🐺👽🐿✌️🫰🔥🙏🙌👌👏
Cannot wait for you to go down this rabbit hole. To understand just how badass these girls are, you need to watch the documentary of how they trained for years to make the Final Cut. Next level… #alphaz
Just subscribe today after watching some of your reactions ..you’re both are Great !!! … keep it up .. I love hearing new song I wouldn’t listen to .. 🎉 keep it up ..
Most rappers these days only rap in two languages - English and profanity.. For these girls to switch between 3 languages flawlessly without resorting to any F word or rapping about their private parts is chef kiss to me. And Cocona and Maya were only 16 here I think. Stay classy, XG!
When they see you they go chotto when they see me they go motto means: when they see you they go stop ( or no more), when they see me they go more , in summary they had enough of you but want to see/ hear more of me
Hii.. I hope u read this. I was wondering if you are a hip hop fan, bcs I am and it's one of the reason why I stan XG. Also as a hip hop lover and huge music admirer, I wanna suggest to check out BTS. People hardly know this but BTS has a very strong Hip Hop element on their music, especially old school hip hop. 2 of the members came from underground rappers (RM and Suga/Agust D) and 1 from hip hop street dancer (j-hope). So yea.. they're really good. And they really were and still are the students of the game. This list right here are some of their best songs and tracks. Please react to these : 1. *Monster* by RM (og track from Grown Simba, J.Cole) 2. *Hip Hop Phile* (here they pay homage to the legendss. Talkin abt Tupac, Biggie, JayZ, Nas, Rakim, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg (also specifically talkin abt the album Illmatic, The Chronic, Doggy Style and 2002 too) they also mentioned KRS-ONE, Kendrick Lamar, Gang Starr, Pete Rock, CL Smooth, J.Cole and a lot more. And they basically telling their stories of how they got deep into the culture). 3. *Cypher pt.1-4* by the Rap Line (straight up Cyphers, and pt. 1-3 they added some old school Boom Bap typa beat) 4. *Joke* by RM (og track by Run The Jewels, Oh My Darling) 5. *Born Singer* (og by Born Sinner, J.Cole) 6. *Agust D* and *Daechwita* by Agust D 7. *Persona* by RM (mixed of hip hop and a lil bit of rock) 8. *Sexy Nukim* by Balming Tiger ft. RM 9. *Ddaeng* by the Rap Line (traditional instrument, mixed with trap beat) 10. *Snooze* by Agust D 11. *Strange* by Agust D ft. RM 12. *Change* by RM ft. Wale 13. *Please Don't Die* by RM ft. Warren G 14. *Look Here* I suggest to check out the lyric videos, or MV with lyrics. Bcs their wordplay is amazing, and also deep. These tracks right here serve Vocal, Raps, Lyrics/stories, instruments, just high quality productions. And honestly some of them are pretty underrated and TRUST ME.. just TRUST MEE You will love them Btw thank you
What about me??? I'm still a Virgin at 27 because women think 6 foot is short Go watch pop the balloon videos to see women don't like short men under 6 foot) a woman on pop the balloon video even said 6 foot is short and y'all ignorantly think height don't matter) some of you dudes who respond live in Disney fantasy. I will never approach any woman being 5'8" in this lifetime) pop the balloon shows proved to me to never approach women
I speak Korean and know enough Japanese to get in trouble. They're sliding from English to Korean to Japanese fluidly without losing cadence or sounding corny(I'm Korean and I find KPop corny...sometimes AsF). They're spitting in Korean...trust me. They're all saying some things to the haters. I love it. Cadence on point and that's hard to do.
Happy you gave Maya her flowers. She’s a real technician with the wordplay
I was the one who donated for this reaction to XG tape 2 and I knew both of you would love it. Thank you!! When you are able to, please do Shooting Star, Winter without You, all their Xypher and move tapes. Also The Hesonoo x X-Gene (performance video). Honestly everything they do whether it is rap, sing, dance is all super duper 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks again and love your breakdowns and reactions!
Thanks for the reaction! Glad you guys liked them once more!
You guys can't go wrong with anything from XGs catalog, they have no skips!!
But off catalog... you have to check out Cocona & Maya doing a song called
"Show you Can". They even had a part in it writing the lyrics!
Tape 4 my dudes. Tape 4 is broken into 5 short parts. Each girl gets her own rap, then they come together for one.
That gotta be next!
YES PLS
Facts - all English bars is a major plus!
I love how they rhyme English with their Japanese and Korean keeping the flow and still have meaning and makes sense. This is hard.

Gotta do HESONOO and X-GENE Performance video next perfectly captures everything they can do! I promise you will not be disappointed!
TAPE 2 GALZ XYPHER
* Chotto - Japanese for Stop/Little, Motto - Japanese for Go/More. "When they see you they say Chotto, When they see me they say Motto"
* Takin' no L's and giving no F's, Mmh, Mmh (never will be marked a Loser cause we winning, giving no F's meaning not that they care what haters think!)
* Don’t be bitter, be better
* Never miss a beat freakin' misdemeanor (legal charge for beating someone up, but tied to music beat, ref to Missy Elliott who was called misdemeanour)
* Popping on them 808's (808's are 1980's rap rhythm composer equipment Roland TR-808)
* Here for the throne, Khaleesi Flow (Queen, Game of Thrones)
* I got to keep winning like an Elon Must (Musk)
* We on the come up, While they goin' down, down bad (call out to Down Bad, OG beat Maya is rapping over)
* Cocona's low tone is absolute perfect; add Harvey's unique/real voice for some pure "Umami" taste; Maya's authentic/fast speed/clarity and top it off with Jurin's leader aura!
* Good rap followup to this one is "”Woke Up”, and “Show You Can" soundtrack for Street Women Fighter 2 (dance competition show in Korea) with Maya/Cocona
- Duke
Don't think they said chotto, they said jouto which is like 'good job'/good effort , but when they see me they go 'motto' /more as in ' i need more'. You'd be able to recognize the CH sound.
Jurin’s “I’m sicker than a cypher spittin in a pandemic” lives rent free in my mind.
DEF CHECKOUT TAPE #3-A and TAPE #3-B…..trust.
XG GOT NO SKIPS IN THEIR CATALOGUE. They provide a different vibe on every song. They do the pop/hip hop/r&b thing better than anyone and that’s because of their level of talent, aesthetic, and attitude.
This Xypher, Cocona in particular is what got me into XG ❤
Thank you for putting respect on Harvey. I get it, her tone isn't for everybody but you can't deny she slides on her beat.
They all eat on this MF tho. XG rapline is elite.
Nice reaction ✌🏾
ALPHAZ on DECK! 🐺
Another great reaction guys. I enjoy watching your XG journey and the enthusiasm for these girls' talents. Appreciate the analysis and insights.
coco put xg on with this cypher but maya was mvp
Maya is an Ace.
Ive never seen this cypher better summed up bc UR RIGHT
When they see you they go "less", when they see me they go "more", chotto and motto are japanese words.
They have all kind of flavors :
If you want to continue into their rap side you can't go wrong with the tapes (Tape 3A and 3B and all the tapes 4, one for each and a last one with the four rappers together), but you can hear them sing with Vox (the other three vocalists share the VOX 1 to 6 together).

The song most similar to Woke up is probably "Girl gang". Beware, the MV is cut short due to budget, you can watch an ASL version or a lyrics version to listen to the all song.
Ayy let's goo XG 🔥🔥🔥🔥
2:19 They rapping with 3 languages (English, Japanese and Korean) so smoothly and their rapping flow
is crazy that's make XG so different with others group.
React to Maya and Cocona from XG’s “Show You Can” it’s not on their channel because they wrote and performed it for dance battle tv show in Korea called Street Woman Fighter” so look for the Lyrics video
You will love Tape 3A&3B and Tape 4 (they each have their own tape 4) are almost all in English so you can vibe the whole way without translation concerns
Yes! More XG! Gives us all their songs! 🐺 Alphaz on deck! Hesonoo-ooooo!
Ohh that's wild okay now i can't unhear. Let me clear my throat 😂😂😂

aye im not the only one who hears clear my throat :D
All 4 are spitting in Korean, Japanese, and English.
4:44 That face said everything lol
ALPHAZ 🐺 on deck.
"HESONOO"
XG Birth on their Planet. Howling Wolves in background.
Jurin’s Verse
Johto and Moto it’s like saying “They want more of me and less of you” “I’m hot your Cold”- type of meaning
They’re starting their North America tour this week. Grab tickets if you still can. They’re so much better live 🔥
Cocona is a menace! Mind you she was only 16 years old at this time.
She was actually 16 and turned 17 a few weeks later. I believe it’s WHY people were shocked but COCONA was a boss queen at 11 years old. 👍🏽🤍🐺
NEXT XG TAPE 3A & 3B
Love XG and love you guys… Best reaction channel imo. I first found you because of ur reaction to Stay Wide Awake
FINALLY!! YOU STILL HAVE THE NEXT TAPES
Fun fact, one of their writers is Year of the Ox, they're a rap duo from VA
When they see You, they go (little less of this).
When they see Me you, they go (more of That)
Maaaan these girls make me stand up
Left right and shooting stars maybe next and or the rest of the tapes...
Long time sub. Y’all really going to lose your minds over tape 3a and 3b. Just saying. Also song with maya and cocona called “sure you can” is fire on another level. Don’t make us wait so long for the next XG reaction!
Should react to the XG Documentary XTRA XTRA, it will inspire you even more and then XTRA XG episodes.
Agree, it really shows how hard these girls worked to achieve their dream… next level!
y'all gotta do Winter without You next,
The girls are rapping in 3 different languages, Japanese, Korean & English.
Did you spot the wordplay about cocona being the new genesis. Ot genesis wit' his song "coco."
Jurins line, "when they see you they go joto, when they see me they go moto!"
JOTO- in Japanese in a slang context can mean fine, or good
MOTO- in Japanese means "more. " Like in intensity or an increase in something. Like more energy, more fire."
So in essence she's saying when they see you they're like, "nice" or "okay not bad." But when they see her their mind is blown, she's such a higher intensity, more exciting, they crave even more so to speak...
1:15 honestly i wouldve LOVED it if it was "Clear my throat" first, and then "Claim my throne" at the end.
Great xg reaction as always 🐺
Can't wait for the next 2 tapes
YOU GUYS SHOULD REACT TO WINTER WITHOUT YOU FROM XG
Watch the Tape#2 test videos. Those have English captions except for when they’re rapping in Japanese or Korean.
There are four short films with subtitles.
Gotta checkout Winter without you the first take by XG. Crazy vocals
'When they see you, they go chotto (just a little bit). When they see me, they go motto (more!)' - Jurin
The theme for all 4 ladies was vampire goddess!
VOX #1 next!👊🐺✌️
Hold onto your speakers, The Japanese have arrived. You can't fault anything from XG. There is so much talent, and I'm sure there are more surprises to come in due course. Maya is a bad ass MC and great all-around artist.
XG have a winning formula and are uniting countries regardless of race or culture. I just wish they'd place globally in the charts and keep the rewards they so truly deserve. A brilliant breakdown and supportive vibe Alphaz 🐺👽🐿✌️🫰🔥🙏🙌👌👏
Awesome reaction!!!🎉🎉
Cannot wait for you to go down this rabbit hole. To understand just how badass these girls are, you need to watch the documentary of how they trained for years to make the Final Cut. Next level… #alphaz
Just subscribe today after watching some of your reactions ..you’re both are Great !!! … keep it up .. I love hearing new song I wouldn’t listen to .. 🎉 keep it up ..
Most rappers these days only rap in two languages - English and profanity.. For these girls to switch between 3 languages flawlessly without resorting to any F word or rapping about their private parts is chef kiss to me. And Cocona and Maya were only 16 here I think. Stay classy, XG!
Okay there is a lyric video that a lot of reactors Miss but it is fire only has Maya and Cocona on it.
Look for" Show you Can" (Prod Czaer, Jacops)
All the XG tapes are great
🔥🔥🔥
They are awesome. How have i never heard of them
Chotto = "a little" or small Moto means "alot" or bigger, large
I thought it was joto
@@tacoslover4765 😂 me too
@@tacoslover4765 I did too, but a Japanese commenter spelled it "chotto".
Welcome in the xg rabbit hole
ALPHAZ ON DECK🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
You all need to react to t.i. ready for whatever & t.i. no matter what, both are fire no know ones reacted to them
Enjoy your reaction a lotttttttttttttttttttttttt
Xg on deck
You would think they woulda used a more original sounding beat😢😢😢
..... and English is their 3rd language.
When they see you they go chotto when they see me they go motto means: when they see you they go stop ( or no more), when they see me they go more , in summary they had enough of you but want to see/ hear more of me
X gene!!!
LESSS GOOO
Waiting for another xg reaction
johto less mucho more do 3A and 3B next bars galore
By bias Jurin she’s the leader ❤

👽🐺
1024 Dare Shoals
is joto like spanish? pronounced "hoto"-maybe and ik moto in japanese is like origin, or "original" or "more"
Chotto is “a little” in Japanese 🤙🏽
Omg you guys gonna lose it when you unlock the vocal side. You not gonna believe Winter Without You. Do the M/V then the First Take version
Do Korean American rap group Year Of The Ox (YOX) They write alot of XG's bars. 🙏 🙏 🙏
Y’all ain’t got to the best tapes yet
Pls react to Chill Bill
Moto mean more joto mean less . So when they see me they want more, when they see you they want nothing to do with you lol
Do th e song - Left Right by XG
Hii..
I hope u read this.
I was wondering if you are a hip hop fan, bcs I am and it's one of the reason why I stan XG.
Also as a hip hop lover and huge music admirer, I wanna suggest to check out BTS.
People hardly know this but BTS has a very strong Hip Hop element on their music, especially old school hip hop.
2 of the members came from underground rappers (RM and Suga/Agust D) and 1 from hip hop street dancer (j-hope).
So yea.. they're really good. And they really were and still are the students of the game.
This list right here are some of their best songs and tracks.
Please react to these :
1. *Monster* by RM (og track from Grown Simba, J.Cole)
2. *Hip Hop Phile* (here they pay homage to the legendss. Talkin abt Tupac, Biggie, JayZ, Nas, Rakim, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg (also specifically talkin abt the album Illmatic, The Chronic, Doggy Style and 2002 too) they also mentioned KRS-ONE, Kendrick Lamar, Gang Starr, Pete Rock, CL Smooth, J.Cole and a lot more. And they basically telling their stories of how they got deep into the culture).
3. *Cypher pt.1-4* by the Rap Line (straight up Cyphers, and pt. 1-3 they added some old school Boom Bap typa beat)
4. *Joke* by RM (og track by Run The Jewels, Oh My Darling)
5. *Born Singer* (og by Born Sinner, J.Cole)
6. *Agust D* and *Daechwita* by Agust D
7. *Persona* by RM (mixed of hip hop and a lil bit of rock)
8. *Sexy Nukim* by Balming Tiger ft. RM
9. *Ddaeng* by the Rap Line (traditional instrument, mixed with trap beat)
10. *Snooze* by Agust D
11. *Strange* by Agust D ft. RM
12. *Change* by RM ft. Wale
13. *Please Don't Die* by RM ft. Warren G
14. *Look Here*
I suggest to check out the lyric videos, or MV with lyrics. Bcs their wordplay is amazing, and also deep.
These tracks right here serve Vocal, Raps, Lyrics/stories, instruments, just high quality productions.
And honestly some of them are pretty underrated and TRUST ME.. just TRUST MEE
You will love them
Btw thank you
I have a request, could you guys react to Eminems (we as americans)? Great song and hook???????????????
If you like melodies you would love winter without you
React to chill bill !!!
We did already bruv
Can someone give me the name in order
Cocona, Maya, Hervey, and Jurin
What about me??? I'm still a Virgin at 27 because women think 6 foot is short
Go watch pop the balloon videos to see women don't like short men under 6 foot) a woman on pop the balloon video even said 6 foot is short and y'all ignorantly think height don't matter) some of you dudes who respond live in Disney fantasy.
I will never approach any woman being 5'8" in this lifetime) pop the balloon shows proved to me to never approach women
hii pls react to SB19 and their song GENTO! they're a PPOP group (Philippines Pop 🇵🇭). hope you could check them out!
