Regardless of a promising begin, woman group Billlie has skilled some rising pains as they try to carve out their musical area of interest within the Okay-pop market. In the present day, they’ve opted for his or her first unit monitor. Snap brings collectively lead vocal Moon Sua and lead dancer Siyoon on a hard-hitting hip-hop monitor. Whereas it might showcase some talent, the tune itself does nothing for the group’s burgeoning legacy.
From the outset, this type of idol hip-hop monitor just isn’t for me. Its mix of undulating bass and pots-and-pans percussion has been finished to demise and triggers too many strain factors in my mind to make the music listenable. One thing in regards to the tone of those instrumentals now appears like nails on a chalkboard to me. I actually want the Okay-pop business would lean into completely different kinds of hip-hop. The style is a lot greater than the shout-rap “I’m the perfect” posturing idols churn out again and again (and over) once more.
Think about my eye twitching each time the ladies shout “snap!” within the hook and also you’ve obtained an important picture to anchor this evaluation. Moon Sua and Siyoon carry out all the things effectively sufficient however none of it feels genuine and doesn’t spotlight their strengths. Visitor rapper Sokodomo is introduced in for the briefest of verses — nearly as an afterthought. As one of many monitor’s composers, I assume they felt he wanted a cameo. To be trustworthy, I’m undecided something about this monitor was wanted in any respect.
