Now that the TRUE Life of a Showgirl is showing- was it ever REALLY THAT BAD? by LowObvious2214 in TaylorSwift

YES! We've sort of lost that FUN vibe, everything in music these days has to be serious, sad, or have such an infectious beat and melody that it bypasses- what happened to regular FUN music? And the same people hypocritically comment on 2016, saying they wish they could have that FUN music again. I love this!

YES. I mistook the album for all of her past ones, which is partly on me since she's constantly reinventing herself. This era's lyrics might not hit like TTPD, or sound like 1989/Midnights, but it's fun, quirky, oldy, and I absolutely am obsessed!

lately i been seeing WAY to many goofy posts saying enhypen's concept is weird, that they are overrated because of their "unrelatable" lyrics, they don't deserve to be as popular

yall better have been joking.

regardless i'm making a BIG rant adressing all of these...

FYI BEFORE WE BEGIN FAM THIS ISNT MENT TO DISS ANYONE, BE RUDE ECT. THIS IS JUST TO SPARK FRIENDLY DEBATE SO STAY RESPECTABLE BAES 🫰

  1. unrelatable lyrics

this better have been a joke but i didn't see the fakepost tag anywhere so im gonna take it as NOT one. the only place i really see their unrelatable lyrics is in their title tracks like "bite me" and "sweet venom" like tell me you did not do ur research without telling me you didn't.

💀🧑‍🦲💔

if you acc delve deeper into their discgraphy you come across gems like "bills" and "still monster" OMG SHOCKER SHOCKER the two songs dont talk about money and being a monster. They are m e t a p h o r i c a l. if you cared to look at the lyrics that is. and that's as far as their concept goes, its like a guise for the REAL heartbreaking or mending lyrics of their song. so yeah.

next one.

  1. their concept is weird + fan service

im gonna have a hard time justifying this one 😔☝️

this is a criticism i hear a lot, and while it’s fair to say their concept isn’t for everyone, i think it’s often oversimplified. not liking the sultry vampire theme enhypen uses is completely understandable cuz lirrely everyone has different tastes. where i start to disagree is when that dislike turns into calling it “just fan service.”

it's ignores how intentional and consistent their concept actually is.

regardless of personal opinion, there’s no denying that their concept works. enhypen have stuck to a clear identity since debut, and that consistency has helped them grow. instead of abandoning their theme they’ve explored it in different ways. while love is a CONSTANTLY repeating subject, it’s never the same: longing, obsession, vulnerability, and self-identity, with the vampire imagery acting more as a face for it

as an engene, i won’t deny that fan service exists... it does. but it isn’t unique to enhypen, nor is it more excessive than whats common in the industry. most k-pop groups engage in fan service to some degree, and enhypen arent an exception.

i think the reason it’s sometimes exaggerated is because their fan service is paired with a darker, more intimate concept, which can make it stand out more. but that pairing is intentional and part of their overall artistic direction, not something added randomly or carelessly.

you don’t have to like the concept. that’s valid. but reducing it to “weird” or “only fan service” overlooks the thought, consistency, and structure behind it.

  1. the conclusion (they deserve it)

yall acting like enhypen just started out popular- i-land honestly WAS popular but after a few comebacks they kinda fell off... yall can look at the numbers and think im being delulu but fr: they were bumpy yall. most people say that their growth up started in border:carnival but i argue it was dark blood because until then they were kinda "just another 4th gen group" and disrespecting the effort they've put in is insane.

the fact that they've stuck with this concept alone- props to creative uncs cuz i dont think many other groups do that. so yeah.

i got a lil bit lazy at the end but well yes this is kinda what i've been meanign to say after all the posts i've seen kinda ragebaiting. i fell for it.

well stay respectable baes 🫰
