I just love that insane performances have become the essence of KQ. I hope this is something that will shape all of their future groups. I can't help imagining a girl group with strong performances like Ateez and Xikers
Omg I just said the same thing (about the girl group) and didn’t even see your comment. So glad to know I’m not the only one! I would GLADLY volunteer. 😉🤪
@@isa_mochi virtually there's Dreamcatcher, which has strong performances and discography, and almost every Eden-ary member has worked with them (except Eden, Dwayne, and Neko)... but hey I won't mind a KQ gg within the next two years or so!
13:21 THAT’S HYUNWOO!!! Our main vocalist 🤭🤭 17:04 and the boy you’ve forgotten the name of is Hunter. Hunter’s style, his swag, his charisma… he can grab anybody’s attention when he dances and that definitely shows in Rockstar and Tricky House.
Xikers had one of the strongest debut albums that I've heard in a while. I think that you'll really like their album. They have an extremely strong rap line, but their vocal line is heaven when they harmonize.
This whole mv feels like an anime opening and I love that so so much! For the mv I think I prefer Tricky House, I just love how crazy fun it is, but for the song Rockstar is definitely my favourite❤
This song is completely bonkers, like the verses, the pre-chorus, the chorus, the outro, all these parts feel so different from one another, like multiple songs mushed together, yet they managed to tie them together perfectly with just one line or two or a bar or two. It's simply crazy, cuz you wouldn't think so, but everything works so well together and all these components flow perfectly in another, without making it weird. It leaves you, as you perfectly said, in total awe!
I feel like Tricky House made a bigger impact on me. I could not believe how good their first ever song sounded like. It was surprising and at the same time not surprising since hongjoong and eden and the other kq's producers produced it. But also I really felt how every boy had their moment to shine in that music video. When I first saw Rockstar's mv, I wasn't as wowed as tricky house mv, but now to see it with you I could analyse it way better. So thank you.
13:30 ok PD you already searched and know his name but Here: That kid's name is Choi Hyunwoo, THE MAIN VOCALIST OF xikers, an 04 liner, the last to join KQ. He's a band vocalist when he was young. He joined KQ to seek advice for vocal training but ended up making it as part of KQ Fellaz 2. He has literally no dance experience at all and just learned how to dance in a very short amount of time. His voice really sounds so good, soothing, relaxing and pleasant. When xikers debuted, during the interviews he is always being asked to sing and he sings so beautifully. I'm sorry if it sound like a flexing but PD noticing my ULT (who barely had screentime in Tricky House) makes me so happy. I love his voice so much 💙 17:33 thank you for always emphasizing that although xikers sounds so much like Ateez, they still sounds completely different at the same time. 19:33 yes they did. Rockstar and Tricky House are both perfect MVs 🔥 Glad you enjoyed Rockstar as much as we, roadys, all did. xikers music is energetic and fun. Tricky House has existed prior their debut but I never get tired of listening to it. Rockstar on the other hand is like a "love at first sight" for me... My favorite xikers song so far.
The album is really good too! Honestly the intro is one of my favorites of all time, everything about them is so creative! I became a roady really fast!
this song is my favourite from the whole album. it's just so good. the whole album is freakin amazing. i just love them they have so much energy and they are CRAZY TALENTED.
for a group that is just starting they have come out swinging. I can't wait to see what else they have as time comes. They are kind guys as well so I can't wait to see what the future holds.
PROUD DEBUT STAN HERE! and i would just like to say that watching your reactions to Xikers makes me fall in love with the songs like i am listen to it for the first time. the way you get excited and describe your feelings about the group makes me so happy that others appreciate Xikers like us RodaY's do :))
I have missed your reactions! The album is fire! I think you will really enjoy it. KQ is just nailing it with the productions of their groups. The guy is Hunter and honestly he’s the only one that I know his name (I need to learn them!) The scene where they are flying with the blue “goblins”, it reminds me so much of the ATEEZ Guerilla “battle flag” scene and it’s so visually stunning. Can you imagine if they came out with a girl group what that would be?!
OMG finally😭😭 ive been waiting for PD reaction to Rockstar, rockstar definitely slayy 🔥🔥 its so good😭 i love tricky house but rockstar hit diff😭 its Hunter PD, the one you like his dancing 🙈🙈 i really wish i could see your listening party to xikers too😭😭 i dont have patreon😭
18:46 completely agree. Tricky house and rockstar bring different vibes. But rockstar gives something that tricky house doesnt give. What a powerful duo for debut. Kq did a good job with their debut
I really liked Rockstar better, but I know that I have never moved on from listening to the whole song with Tricky House. Tricky House's ending -- shanty shanty ya ya ya -- will make me sit through it regardless. I love it. Rockstar is just a different energy for a different reason, and I'm here for both. I can't wait for you to hear the album, and hopefully catch a live performance of Xikey, because the energy is way different and the focus changes significantly as well. Glad to see you continuing to love our dongsaengs!
Loved how crazy your reaction was to the song and music video! Mine was very similar when I first heard the song. Both songs, music videos and performances are fantastic, but I like the Rockstar song more and the Tricky House music video more. I really enjoyed this debut album and Rockstar was one of my favorite songs on it.
I loved this mv!! I feel like it’s a perfect ending song for an anime or sports drama 😍 Have you seen XG’s pre release song Girl Gvng mv? It’s INSANEEE.
I agree with you about liking Rockstar better than Tricky House. Tricky House video had a really cool story and creativity, but Rockstar just has a really good vibe. Both really good though.
I love both songs and MVs but have a slight preference for the tricky house MV but Rockstar song. But really, the entire album is insanely good. I had it on a loop for weeks. I will definitively check out your listening party ❤
glad you finally watched Rockstar! The entire album is way too good to be a debut!!! Like how will they ever top this??? Though, this is KQ they will find away
And both that anime opening and this MV makes me euphoric so definitely with you prefering Rockstar!!🤧💖 And completely agree with all your opinions, that's why you are my favorite reactor, you always get it!!!💕 Man they just gave us everything we needed I'm in love Also, you can tell the Hongjoong influence, it's so him and even the feeling a star feeling like a star part he made an almost similar part in an intro of an award show, also he liked the song Stay and then they covered it so I can see the influence!😍
@@BriBee1235yes I already know and I can't wait 😅 After Ateez released The World Ep.2: Outlaw, I already have a feeling that they will also have a cb.
boygroups on the rise again, with them tnx, &Team and all those new bg's i feel like we finally got outta that stiff everything sounds the same hole. gg's didnt really had that problem, atleast imo, but even them currently switch it up with NewJeans, Lesserafim etc.
it's the same production team. all of ATEEZ's recent mv's and both of xikers' are directed by Digipedi but for Rockstar in particular they did collaborate with a Japanese VFX artist on the anime-like drawings part (i don't think the blue goblin whisps).
I just love that insane performances have become the essence of KQ. I hope this is something that will shape all of their future groups. I can't help imagining a girl group with strong performances like Ateez and Xikers
omg, now i NEED a kq girl group
Omg I just said the same thing (about the girl group) and didn’t even see your comment. So glad to know I’m not the only one! I would GLADLY volunteer. 😉🤪
@@isa_mochi virtually there's Dreamcatcher, which has strong performances and discography, and almost every Eden-ary member has worked with them (except Eden, Dwayne, and Neko)... but hey I won't mind a KQ gg within the next two years or so!
@@KiGeprak Deukae is like their soul sisters not just because they share the same producers but also their dedication on stage performances. 👌🏼
I would love to see a KQ GG as well. I think they could really bring something fresh and interesting to the kpop scene
We got Ateez and Xikers on the same day? I’m in heaven
Kq will be known in the industry for debuting Best Performance Groups
13:21 THAT’S HYUNWOO!!! Our main vocalist 🤭🤭 17:04 and the boy you’ve forgotten the name of is Hunter. Hunter’s style, his swag, his charisma… he can grab anybody’s attention when he dances and that definitely shows in Rockstar and Tricky House.

These guys are amazing, their album is a no skip for me and it's the first time I watch EVERY live stages for a group that I don't stan yet haha
so happy you noticed hyunwoo's pretty tone 😆 he used to sing in a band before idol training iirc
no wonder why xikers is my one of my favourite groups for right now. 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
if i want to get inspired, its Rockstar. If I want to get pumped/ energized, that's Tricky House
that's the perfect way to say it!
Xikers have such insane energy. And Hunter’s facial expressions are golden.
You should really watch their live stages. They’re fantastic performers.
This was literally my favourite debut to date. 😆😆
This whole mv feels like an anime opening and I love that so so much!
For the mv I think I prefer Tricky House, I just love how crazy fun it is, but for the song Rockstar is definitely my favourite❤
Also the voice you like is Choi Hyunwoo!! He’s their main vocal and has such a sweet tone

Xikers is just showing up and showing out, love how much joy was on your face during the first listen ❤🎉😊
Their album is just SO GOOD, and this song was personally my favorite
We can rate it 10/10 from the beginning, and this song is one of them. It's absolutely outstanding. That’s crazy🤘🔥
Hi PD!!! I love this whole album, is insane
Their music is crazy energetic, i can't wait to watch them live on festival this month... i know they will deliver :))
Xikey is my favorite--you really need to see some of their live performances. ❤
I just want them to have a comeback. I constantly want more content. They are AMAZING
your wish been granted they are comming back on august 02
@@zemouraanis4108 I know. THEY HEARD MY PLEA 😂
xikers may just be perfect. 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
The main vocalist has the same name as me and so only a less than a year younger I’ve never been happier
Only 1 album and this freaking group is still having me on a chokehole 🤌
16:23 funfact the moving camera on that is a camera man, not a crane. KQ men is built differently😊❤
wow fr?😱
BEST DEBUT OF 2023!!!
AHHHHH OMG IVE BEEN SO EXCITED TO SEE YOUR OPINION!!! I’ve been following you since I’ve become a Kpop fan, thank you for all the great content!
i definitely like rockstar more, they’re both incredible but this energy for a debut??? i’m going to remember how this made me feel forever
I really liked Rockstar better, but I know that I have never moved on from listening to the whole song with Tricky House.

14:30 is my wallpaper, I loved this scene from the first time I watched it. This mv is epic
They're so underrated, they're already one of my favourite groups
if you watch xikers xikey ( one of thier bside) stage , that’s a whole new level
KQ is putting out talented groups that are unique and powerful performers
they slayed!
love them

Yes, they made Two perfect videos 😄

the dance boy is hunter and he's Thai. He's the main dancer
14:26 the fact that this shot is do individually😭😭 GOSH KQ EDITOR IS AND CEO IS UTAKOOO😌💚😌💚
they just announced that they'll be coming back in august, make sure to check them out💗
This song since it dropped i can easily say it’s the best song in the entire year 🧎🏻♀️🧎🏻♀️🧎🏻♀️
In my blood i feel alive
My fav song of theirs so far!!
And I love how Hongjoong was involved with them!
seeing all these other comments being almost 2 weeks old has me seriously considering becoming a channel member/patron!!!
I love both songs and MVs but have a slight preference for the tricky house MV but Rockstar song.
But really, the entire album is insanely good. I had it on a loop for weeks. I will definitively check out your listening party ❤
13:23 - it's hyunwoo the main vocalist of xikers!!!
glad you finally watched Rockstar! The entire album is way too good to be a debut!!! Like how will they ever top this??? Though, this is KQ they will find away
13:21 main vocal hyunwoo!!!!
Please xikers koong next 🙏
Its interesting that you bring up the Justin Bieber song Stay because to me this reminds me musicslly a bit of Ateez cover of Stay
This MV reminds me of Soul Eater.
You know what this reminded me?? The anime Air Gear!!!! They could totally be the live action movie!!
And both that anime opening and this MV makes me euphoric so definitely with you prefering Rockstar!!🤧💖 And completely agree with all your opinions, that's why you are my favorite reactor, you always get it!!!💕
Man they just gave us everything we needed I'm in love
Also, you can tell the Hongjoong influence, it's so him and even the feeling a star feeling like a star part he made an almost similar part in an intro of an award show, also he liked the song Stay and then they covered it so I can see the influence!😍
Xikers is a bit like if Ateez was Stray Kids
1:27 it's only the beginning and it's 10/10 already🤣
that's true tho♥️
Wait till you see xikey...
that is so true they are so similar yet so different from ATEEZ
You should listen To xikey track sir.. it's hongjung song..and it's sooo good😭😭😭♥️🎀
For some reason I really want this song as a opening for Blue Exorcist🤔
Ateez+xikers......KQ family supremacy!!
I really wanna stan them cuz they are really talented, but I don't usually stan groups at first release. I usually does at their third 😢
Well they have a comeback in August so be on the lookout for that :-)
@@BriBee1235yes I already know and I can't wait 😅 After Ateez released The World Ep.2: Outlaw, I already have a feeling that they will also have a cb.
❤❤❤❤❤
EPICCCCCCCCCCCC
Ateez and xikers the best
They sound so much like ateez… truly their younger brothers
No disrespect to the xikey crew but this is the best song on the album for me
boygroups on the rise again, with them tnx, &Team and all those new bg's i feel like we finally got outta that stiff everything sounds the same hole. gg's didnt really had that problem, atleast imo, but even them currently switch it up with NewJeans, Lesserafim etc.
Probably the earliest score you did (w/in 7 seconds) 😁
Noice
Xikers and Ateez don’t feel like boy groups. They feel like lad packs.
I prefer this song over Goblin. I think it marks their territory much more whereas Goblin still sounded too much like KQ-Ateez hoobae.
and it's not even the best song, I still think Xikey is even better!
No cause xikers having better vfx than ateez is so funny to me for some reason
it's the same production team. all of ATEEZ's recent mv's and both of xikers' are directed by Digipedi but for Rockstar in particular they did collaborate with a Japanese VFX artist on the anime-like drawings part (i don't think the blue goblin whisps).
