I was wondering wtf happened to my headphones. It was either cheap production or intentional sound. I didn't mind the song. Still on the fence about it.
New sistar is...alright. I feel like it started great but the song didn't really change it up at all for most of it, so it felt really long and repetitive. Their choreo and shit is hot to be expected but a lot of it, especially the beginning with the slow butt shaking and the chorus hand on chest thing seems kinda...blatant? I get kind of the same feeling when watching a HyunA MV, that they've come across a sexy image and now they're exploiting it for all its worth. Obviously HyunAs concepts are more tryhardy in this aspect but I got a similar feeling from this MV. It's not that it's sexy I think, it's that the company knows they're sexy and that's what they're pushing first, so it feels kinda cheap if that makes sense.

Yep, completely agree. I actually quite liked the smoky sound of Hyorin's vocals in the song. But there's no parts where she really puts power into it, so overall it comes across as somewhat thin and lacking in dynamic.
The new Sistar19 song is decent, and they look extremely good like always. I just felt like sleeping during the MV though, that could have been so much better

I'm leaning towards cheap production. the drums sound so poorly done as well.
Really enjoyed the song. Bora, damn 10/10. The MV/dance was pretty disappointing though. I felt like they were just sliding back and forth with their hands on their chest the whole song.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought the same about the MV. They were perhaps trying a bit too hard to reproduce the same, sexy concept from Ma Boy, but it came across too hard imo. The song was disappointing for me, the teaser did its job on hyping me up.
As much of a Sistar fanboi as I am, not impressed. If you're gunna run a slow song like that, I want to hear some fucking vocals, like some serious belting, like some Alicia Keys level shit. Hyorin, ya got the lungs, abuse that shit.
Also, why have piano if no one is going to play the damn thing? That shit bugs me. Also blindfolded background dancer idea looks like they stole it from a Lady Gaga MV. Also, random fucking gangser thuggish look towards the end was not necessary, especially since it wasn't paired with thuggish dance moves with it.
Dance was over all was sexy. Hyorin with black hair is her best look yet. Bora looking magnificent as well (though dunno how good she looks after recent injury, lol).
liking the other song of the sistar19 thingy much more, bora "rap part" in okay thou, probably the best part of the song, mv...dont care about but they look stunning. sistar19 is lacking some soyu tho O.o
namolla song is the gem of this page imo, pretty cool song
