      As a music critic, Taemin saved SM musically this year. I cannot compare the amount of musical perfection Taemin has to other artists in their label. Taemin is above that. Taemin basically saves SM's long creative drought. Taemin saved the Electronic scene in K-Pop.

      BRAVE Sadly, many people will still recognise songs such as Kick It and Tiger Inside easier than Criminal. Not that those two aren’t iconic songs, it’s just that those two songs were promoted when we were already having this pandemic and if sm was willing to put in the same amount of effort for this release as they did for those two songs, its popularity would explode.

    He's promoting both at the same time, but SM isn't actually giving him any real promotions for Criminal. He only went to a radio this week and that's it. SM is being the worst. He has expressed multiple times how he wants to get more promotion, or any at this point.

    PD it really saddens me how bad his promotion is. He's practically begging the fans to watch his MV and asking what he can do to increase the views...

We could say that he owns it, he's literally the king of kpop, the standard no one can reach, yet his agency doesn’t promote him the way he deserves. He truly is a diamond in a company that doesn’t deserve him.

      @ɬҳɬ_키 큰 아이*꧂ I won't say that SuperM is ruining his solo career, and that it should go. If anything, Taemin's probably getting new ideas for his future albums since he's exploring so many different styles and genres with SuperM and mixing with people from such diverse groups with such different discographies. I think this SuperM experience is enriching his artistic potential. Also, he's gaining more fame through them. For example, I've seen so many NCTZens and SuperM-only supporters speaking out in his favour these past few days. SuperM should definitely stay.... however, at the same time, SM should also focus on his solo activities more. It's the company's responsibility to promote their artist and their behaviour is extremely disheartening.

      Other companies make their mvs ads, so they get views which are undeserved. I think it's ok for Taemin to rest now knowing that he's achieved results in ways which is hard to tamper with. Putting music videos as ads is basically paying for views, but the fact that Taemin got so many ranks 1s show that people do appreciate his music much more than what UA-cam views would suggest.

      Move wasn’t well promoted though. It wasn’t as bad as this, but it was insufficient and far from the best promos he’s gotten. He didn’t even get any music show wins for it. And he complained openly back then too “I wish my company would work as hard as I do”. It was only after Shawols made covering the choreo a big trend that it got the hype it deserved, and so The Move Disease started, but it was still too late to have any proper impact on statistics like first week album sales and streams, music show votings etc. Even though it’s widely recognized nowadays, Move only started its journey to become iconic a few weeks after it had dropped.

How SM is treating the comeback that he was waiting to give literally since he released Want is really disappointing, but Taemin himself sure isn't.
    This is one of my favorite Taemin tracks, I think the album may even top Press It for me which is hard. The thing about this song is that once I heard it, it wouldn't leave my head. I was streaming it quite seriously since Taemin asked, and when I was playing MVs in-between I just wanted to come back to Criminal. It's just...Amazing. That's all there is to it.

Best song, best MV, best visuals and vocals, best choreography...Honestly Taemin's too good for SuperM, someone's gotta say it.

    Taemin is a king when it comes to drowning and sensually touching songs. Whenever I hear a song from him it always makes me feel something I can't explain. The high notes at the end are giving me the rest. The dance is so amazing. This could turn into my favourite song of 2020. 😻
    You should also check out some of his Japanese songs they are on the same level. Taemin is solo king and that's it ❤️

    Taemin somehow keeps outdoing himself. just when you think "this is it, this is the ultimate art" he comes back with more. what an incredible artist. Criminal is amazing in every way. As you said, Move was more iconic because it pushed so many envelopes. Criminal doesn't do exactly that, but i takes what it is and makes it into unrivaled perfection. This is just quintessential Taemin at his very best

Taemin, after over 10 years, still keeps improving and becoming the best. there's no one doing it like him. Also, he has a shit ton of work i really can't imagine how he manages to deal with everything and still do his best and show it. king of kpop indeed.

I agree that Move is more of an 'iconic' song but Criminal really showcased the full fledged artistry of Taemin- the vocals, the choreo and the visuals blend with each other perfectly to create this masterpiece, which is the culmination of all of his experience as an artist so far. There is a dance practice and there will also be an SM The Stage of this song. Would love to see your reaction to these and also an album listening party because all of the songs are truly god tier!

    good news about the one-take choreo: there's a dance practice! thank you for the reaction, i loved it :). For me, this is my favourite Taemin comeback. He's taken everything he's done so far as an artist and put it all together then built on it. With that, i would describe this MV as maximalist. Although it's not sexy like move or want, there is a magnetism in this MV that i cant look away from, which really reflects the lyrics. I really appreciate how he isn't afraid to take risks and to do something different. Each time Taemin has a comeback i wonder what he's going to do next and how he's going to top himself, but i'm never prepared for it. He always blows me away, and i'm so excited for Act 2!!
