No we don't like it.

Finally, somebody said it, this mv is "age appropriate". Some people are saying this mv is boring and so lame, well what are you looking for? 😂😂😂
Just to hate, but, 60M liked it.😊 And people who knows what they are talking about, loved it.😊
Honestly!!! AGE APPROPRIATE 👏🏽 but also people commenting "this sounds like a kids song" made me laugh. For one, they don't know enough about "Kpop" for those sorts of comments to be made and also what else do you want a group that has members as young as 14 singing about?
LITERALLY
@@x.Rhymiie.x It's interesting because I've read opinions saying that children make for bad adults and therefore such things should not be shown at all 🤔
@x.Rhymiie.x this if they came out doing crazy stuff theyd be like why are they trying to sexualize them. Cant win lol.
THIS
Fastest 60 million views in 5 days record by a kpop debut song is now held by Baby Monster Batter Up. The all time Record was smashed. The girls slayed. Lets go for 100 million. Go go go.

yeah with tons of paid adds and flopping on streaming charts 💀
Pharita surprised me the most! ❤ she did soooooo well with the facial expressions and stage performance!
true. She seems so sweet but she's fire here. 🔥❤🔥
Pharita can always rap. She did a really weird sounding fun fast rap in an early tik tok. Also the way she moved in her singing style in her Introduction song cover was hint of a seasoned rapper.
Finally! Someone saying that this is appropriate for their ages. I don't understand other people expecting a concept like "this group" or "that group" without even considering the difference in age. 🤷🏻♀️
yes they will have special dance performance..i think it will be release this monday or something. u can prepare for that since i saw their behind scene their choreo is very much treasure. i mean a dance group in terms of yg groups.
Finally! A reactor that has a great and reasonable thoughts about the concept of "Baby" and "Monster". Thank youuuu ❤❤❤❤
YG did say that the new GG would have Big Mama vibes in term of their singing abilities. Although some people criticize this song and their debut entirely, Batter up did show their personal vocal colors. Cant wait to listen to their ballad songs
They already had a ballad song that showcased all their vocal capabilities and talents.... it's their pre-debut song "Dream"
@@waniejamil6464 I meant other than Dream
Fastest 50 million record for a kpop debut song also smashed and held by Baby Monster Batter Up.
YG stans got something to brag about a flop group.
@@ALPHAZ_XG_247too early to say a “flop group” when they just debuted and not even doing promotions. Calm your tits!
@@ALPHAZ_XG_247Bro if you don't like them why reply to comment on a video related to them? They just debuted 6 days ago but you are already obsessed with them. Shows how good baemon is 💀
And fasted group to get 1 mil monthly streams on spotify!
Completely agree with your analysis
THANK YOU FOR YOU AMAZING REACTION 🥺🥺🥺🥺 haters are hating about it for attention. That just makes me sad. While us fans are just happy they finally debuted. So Thank you!! ❤❤❤ Stream BATTER UP 🥰🥰🥰🥰
The only reactor I've watched who actually liked and vibing with the song. It is a good song tho! Many people think it sounds empty but for me it's good enough for a Debut. Appreciate you appreciating BaeMon. I like your thoughts and opinions too about them💯
You are watching some whack reactors then... literally every reactor I've seen, and it's a lot, like at least 10-15 a day since release, has liked it for what it was, even if they may not have liked every single aspect of it, like the chorus for instance. And most were down right vibing with the song.
I have seen a lot of reactors that loved it
@@arqHHM I see a lot yes but more of them are not genuine with their reaction, i mean you can notice it 😅 they might doing that just for the views ig. What i meaning to say, Jeff genuinely liked the song and the mv. He even dig deep to the concept and talks about the references of the song to other YG Groups which other reactors didn't noticed or tackled💯
I completely agreed with you. I feel like they totally killed it in this debut. And it's really an appropriate concept fir their age. They did it all and they showed their talents from their very start of career which I'm so proud of. Most people, reactors were not all satisfied because they have this high and impossible expectation like literally theyre kids and this is just their debut yet they expect them to be like BLACKPINK already just because theyre under the company. I really like how you love it on first listen because it really is a bop and i think everyone just love to complain without appreciating what they see and hear. I love how you appreciate them because they deserve everything. They're so talented and they've been waiting for this. It sucks when they can't do any musc shows because it's the most crucial and important time for them because they just debuted. But i hope YG is just waiting for Ahyeon to get better.
They are releasing a dance practice or performance either tomorrow or the next day! Love your reactions ❤
They released an extensive three part behind the scenes / making of for this M/V. Very worth watching and reacting to...
Chiquita ate, can’t wait to your reaction to dance performance is out today 🔥🔥🔥
Baby Monster has great vocals, great rap, and dance skills. As unexpected as it was, love this debut music video. It definitely shows their growth, highlights their skills, personality and synergy too.
I think it's just YG that should invest more in creative directors and producers that will provide new innovation in songs and direction that doesn't come across as having similarities with other artists or such an overly strong YG identity.
I think the issue is that if you look at all YG artists they dont stick with one song type so its kinda hard. Like BB was all over the place same as 2ne1 and BP and iKon and Treasure too.
Thank you for pointing out that this song showcases their voices. Excited for the future, i hope they showcase more of the girls voices.
I love that you just vibed with the Girls!
There is to much hate about this Debut, i love that there are people actually appriciating!
YG was going the easy road because he knew it will would work. Was it predictable? YES.. was it Boring? NO!
The Girls had fun, the choreo is great, i love the little easter eggs such as the numbers, their writings on the lockers etc. the Raps were Great, Asa got to cowrite the song!
Thank you for your reaction and highlighting points that many do not notice and leave because it is easy to make comparisons.
It was Asa (the second rapper) who got credit for some lyrics and composition. What I didnt like about that Final Evaluation series was that they diverted a lot of lot off attention away from Rami (Haram) Pharita and Asa can both sing and rap. If you watched the Intros all 3 did both. They pushed Ahyeon as ONLY all-rounder till the last song performance where Asa did her final performance.
I agree.
Thank u JEFF FOR RECOGNIZING TALENT!! YES!! Even when their debut already got haters 😂
This is the reaction that I was waiting for, because everything Jeff say or react on every reaction he does are exact and on point.
Your reaction deserves more like! You're so spot on.
Great debut...these girls gunna smash records. Their voices are unreal.
Thank you for your reaction. I love how the reactors who have a musical and dance backgrounds have nothing but words of appreciation for this group. Some people are so quick to judge this group just because theyre from YG and are totally overlooking the fact that they are superb singers and rappers. I was also totally surpised of this debut song because their vocals are totally highlighted in this. I thought it would be a heavy hihop song.
This is a solid debut. I don’t care what others say.
they're just threatened..teh forced hate is so wild.
Loved this reaction, you pointed out things I noticed and wanted, their talents showcased!! Is it a YG sound? YES! Did they slay it? YES! For rookies, I just need a live performance of this song to finish that sentence 😅
Asa's rap part is so cool she help also lyrics by Asa and also composed by Asa wow!
I just love this reaction. This is actually on point. I am not a fan of Baby Monster but I think this debut is good and it suits them. The girls really did well.
I agree with the last thing you said. I hope Ahyeon comes back soon and Babymonster releases a new song with if not the re-recorded version of this. 🤗❤️🖤
I agree with lots of your analyses and comments ❤
Their "dance performance" comes out on the 4th, in two days.
Edit: Asa wrote her own rap. No other member was credited with writing.
If you watch their dance formations, there always seems to be a empty spot, like it's for Ahyeon.
Asa is a Japanese native and not korean? I thought Korean hate Japanese
@@ALPHAZ_XG_247and how does that relate to her writing her own rap lmao? 😭
@@ALPHAZ_XG_247not in YG tho. Japanese members in Treasure writes and produces their songs
@@ALPHAZ_XG_247 What do you mean bro? Kpop songs have even Japanese versions dedicated for the Japanese
@dominilee842 no bro, K-pop financially depends on the Japanese music industry. YG just announced they'll be working with AVEX case YG is running out of money (due to legal and court fees) and ideas. YG is trying so hard to imitate XG. Remember when AVEX saved the k-pop industry? Yeah, history repeats itself.
Love u ChiQuita 💕
Asa got named credits as one of the composers and lyrics.
The chorus is very mid for me BUT what I loveddd are the verses and the raps! And for me, that shows how much talent these girls have so I'm hoping they have a more unique sound going forward!
I really like this performance, They can do it very good.
asa is fire🔥
Thank you for reacting to BABYMONSTER even though they received a lot of hate from other people because they said that they copy the concept of 2ne1 and Blackpink, and didn't appreciate the hiphop style of YG.Thank you for that❤
,Those comments are recycled from when Blackpink debuted 🥴 "same lyrics, different tune" - meaning same comments different group 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
BABYMONSTER is the Fastest Kpop Group to reach 1M Monthly Listeners (6 days), surpassing LE SSERAFIM (7 days). Another record! The Queens are here. 👑
@@JetskiPHfrr but like i’m kinda addicted to the song 😭😭
their new single really amaze me. Stuck in the middle is insane! VOCALS!!!
Always love your react, your positive vibe and your attitude. On Point!
Some comments said this song should not be BabyMonster's debut song
I agree that this song is not the type of song that can be accepted by all ears
But I understand why YG finally took this song, it seems like YG wanted to convey a different side to the babymonsters of today's KPop girl groups, how they have different vocals
They seem to want to highlight the colors of each member from this song
U can see in the mv making film that ruka is the main dancer, very attentive to details and led the dance performance.she's a pro on cam her facial expression is always on point.she did her rap part in just one shot and she looks so gorgeous.
Last Evaluation was shown to us Jan -April 2023 but was filmed mid-June through Mid September 2022 so what we saw of them in the spring was at least 14 months ago. That growth was not over 6 months it was over a year.
Most views in 24 hours by a kpop debut song record also smashed and held by Baby Monster Batter Up.
Can't wait for their comeback with album 🔥
It's a year end so there's not much mushow schedule, probably just 1 or 2, maybe that's the reason they not performing. Hoping they gonna release 2nd single for the debut next year (just like BP with wistle back then) so they can perform in mushow. That would be more perfect if ahyeon can make her debut too. Hope she doing well soon❤
I miss when YG comebacks had two MVs drop, one upbeat song and either a ballad or a slower tempo and they would do both for the comeback live shows. ahhh back in the good old YG days
@@x.Rhymiie.x YG kinda have a hard time lately with YHS case, BP contract, ahyeon health so they have to postpone the debut and without ahyeon. But the future still bright cause they have a super talented young artist like treasure and baemon. Let's pray for good and hoping YG back at their best era🖤
Waiting for dance practice reaction here 😊
I honestly love the song and video. Wish them success 👏
lets go babymonster🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
They nailed it ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I think this is just their "appetizer"
They're releasing the dance performance today. Can't wait.
I’m going to play devils advocate (in a way). I see a bright future for BM. BUTTTTT I kinda hate how they didn’t really give the group an identity for their debut. I feel like they gave too many BP vibes. And I know people will say “but it’s so YG”. I get that. But look at SM: every group has their own identity while still doing the “SM thing”. We all know what that means.
I do agree that their growth since the pre-debut show is there. I can’t wait to see what they do in the future and I hope it’s soon and Ahyeon is back.
I really like this song, because it is "so YG". We got promised that BM would have the "YG DNA" and this delivered exactly that. For me it still managed to highlight their vocals, rapping and their individuality. But I get what you mean and can see the "devils advocate" perspective as well. Its dangerous to stay so close to Blackpink and the "YG formula". They also need their own identity beyond "YG" and "Mini Blackpink". I think, a B-Side (or second debut M/V) to showcase a different side, would've helped a lot. Now the pressure is on their first comeback.
I agree 💯
I think most Yg groups debut with a Yg sounding song and further into their careers get more of their own identities. You could literally find similarities in all of their debut tracks, but now you can differentiate their styles.
@@Guthwulf11it’s logical that people will compare them to blackpink, just like how blackpink had the pressure from 2ne1 when they debuted. It will slowly fade away with time, so I don’t think it’s something to worry about.
@@makeitright3810 agreed. As somebody that grew up with 2nd Gen, i also remember how Blackpink started, but they at least had Whistle and promoted on music shows and variety tv at the beginning. I'm not really worried. I just can understand that some people are a bit disappointed how YG handles the BM debut, how safe they play it and how little we get. It really feels rushed or surprisingly disorganized (especially after the great pre debut marketing).
PLS JEFF WE NEED DANCE PRACTICE ANALYSIS !
2nd most fair reaction and commentary so far. Unbiased opinion indeed.
thanks for pointing out that it is an age appropriate concept for debut and also that it makes sense for a yg group to have a hip hop song for debut but that their voices are still showcased well - that’s a hard balance to strike!
Your the one I'm waiting for babymonster reaction
Dance practice coming out tomorrow.
so EXCITED
Hey Jeff, automatic thumbs up for you. Here's a refresher for you. In order of vocal appearance... Rami, 16, Korea; Rora, 15, Korea; Pharita, 18, Thai; Chiquita, 14, Thai; Ruka, 21 Japan; Asa, 17, Japan. Let's go!
The reason I heard that they are postponing their music shows is due to they are waiting to AhYeon to rejoin. YG doesn't want to start promoting BabyMonster without the OT7.
There will be a dance performance video released tomorrow
True when you said Pharita improved so much!
Dance performance coming out tomorrow.
I love your reaction ❤
what if, just what if the missing vibe that I felt the first time I watched the mv was Jeff's pointed out where there should be a highnote and the bridge part. and if Ahyeon comes back and performs this song, they add it on.
Yeah, we expected so much that Ahyeon debuts with the girls because of how she could add some firepower to the overall capability of the group. Hope she returns soon
Been waiting for your reaction on Treasure’s BoMb Kaboom version🥰
lemme just share that my bias is Chiquita BUT I couldn't recognize her face. And while watching the MV, the brown haired girl facial expressions really got me, just look at 3:22, so I asked for her name while giving the time stamps in the comment section of their MV, and gosh they said that was Chiquita. Sheesh she looks different. Anyways, she really stands out with her facial expressions even without me knowing that's her.
I have been following all evaluations from day 1 and I was looking forward to their debut. I think all the girls are super talented in both singing and dancing and I think this song is a good debut. However, for me the stark white background in the beginning and the massive amount of complicated background changes which detracts from the group itself. I also thought the choreo could have been much cleaner, the girls can dance lets face it. There is nothing wrong with the girls at all but I hope in their comeback the company will do better by them. I also hope we see a rehearsal video. Also, I wish people would stop comparing them to Blackpink. They are Baby Monster and will make their name as Baby Monster.
Jeff, please have your reaction to their dance special which was just release hours ago.
I just realized that some concepts of the individual parts use the same concepts that BP has used in their MVs. Maybe bcause they're under the same agency
I agree with the bridge part for Ahyeon
Thanks u❤
Next Reaction Babymonster sheesh
Loveee
RAMI, RORA and AHYEON are my favorite vocalists in BABYMONSTER
Haters gonna hate but baemon will continue YG/Bp legacy. Only few and 4th/5th gen can sing and rap like that. And Only baemon can slay this kind of song in 4th/5th gen. Theyll bring good balance in this new kpop generation. I Love this song. And it's only 1 song, All Yg grps release different kind of song, Just wait and Baemon are also good performers, Theyll slay this hard performing live
No one in YG will continue BP's legacy. BM is already flopping on kcharts. Blackpink was able to rise to the top bcos the songs they put out when they debuted in 2016-17 were something new. Now it's all the same and that includes BM. Maybe this formula of music works with BP now as established artists but to compete with 4th/5th gen you need something new. BM will fail and YG will go bankrupt once BP members leave the company, which is most likely what will happen.
@@jilexzone7595 i mean continuing BP/YG music in this new generation whether people like it or not.
@@sadriver674 I know what you mean, but sadly they won't last long if people don't like it.
Blackpink is leaving YG soon or they will go into hiatus and YG will loose all their investors and go bankrupt. The other groups in that company aren't gonna keep them afloat.
@@jilexzone7595 Downfall of yg started in 2019, People hate YG esp Koreans, gladly Blackpink debuted before scandals and created a very solid/loyal fandom. People come and go in YG and their old ways of promoting their artists and their marketing strategies scks. They've been thru a lot and still on a bad situation right now.
I know people nowadays like soft, healing, freshy songs. Kpop started to be known ww bec of Psy, Bigbang, 2ne1 with YG songs. Many groups copied their bad ass heavy music style and now ppl get tired listening to this kind of songs. I get it. Even Blackpink received hate for having same sound. But I guess YG will never ever change it. That's their trademark. It is not the trending music now but for me i like to see Babymonster bringing balance to kpop music in this new generation.
And regarding YG becoming bankrupt, stocks falling, it's been happening already even before Baemon's debut
But let's wait and see. Baemon will show up that talent, stage presence, energy and good live performances. Popularity fades but talent never betrays.
@@sadriver674 People nowdays, and always, have liked sounds that are NEW.
Bigbang's music back in the day was considered new for kpop, same with 2ne1 and PSY's music, which btw is totally different from BB and 2ne1. Gdragon's music was different as well.
DDDD by BLackpink was new and fresh back in 2018, now it has become old bcos they kept repeating the same structure every comeback.
The whole badass, hip-hop thing isnt cutting it anymore bcos that genre of music isnt exclusive to YG anymore, other groups have tried it and sometimes with better execution.
The real problem is that YG has become lazy and refuses to evolve !!!!!! I wish people would stop giving excuses like "being true to their style or brand". It's not a brand anymore. Even brand need something new at some point.
And i really wanna like BM but they're not bringing anything to 4th gen nor 5th gen... they're basically doing the same thing BP are doing but with new faces and younger versions.
And yes YG has been in a downfall since 2019 but now its even worse bcos BP IS LEAVING !!!!! I don't think kpop stans understand what that means for a company that has been depending of their comebacks to pay for other groups' comebacks and tours. They dont have anything left but Blackpink.
people that keep saying that yg wasted their talent must listen to this..they keep hating the song even thought its good
Baby monster gonna release dance performance on Dec 4 0kst
Please react to their dance performace
I think the reason why they released it in nov instead of sept is because of ahyeons health issue and they had to use this music as a backup. Ig they wanted to wait until ahyeon is back to health but then it will take too long. thus they had to release the rest for the girls first as to dampen fans rage. Theres no way yg wouldnt promote new groups at inkigayo and whatnot i think they still want to wait for ahyeon
I love RORA's voice
I love you. RORA 🧡❤💛
Please react to Kiss of Life 😊
❤
Asa has writing credits so I presume Asa wrote the rap lines.
please react to their dance performance that will be released on 4/12
🌟🌟🌟PLEASE REACT TO THE DANCE PEEFORMANCE!!!🌟🌟🌟
hello plsss reacts to their final performance 2ne1 mashups
first time I'm early
I agree with you, i feel like YGE will shift gears when Ahyeon comes back. It will be more tactical..
their next song will be sm/jyp sound...because they are tired of the people saying... "ohh its so yg"...🤣🤣
Please React to their Dance performance ❤❤❤
HI PO JEFF AVENUE BABYMONSTER - STUCK IN THE MIDDLE M/V RELEASE ALREADY
Hello @JeffAvenue. Could you please do a reaction vid on BM's Batter Up dance performance? I hope that you can react to it. Thank you and God bless.
We have the same thoughts actually. If Ahyeon participated in their debut, for sure they will put a moment where she will sing a high note. Nonetheless, this is still a good debut.
Pls React to Babymonster Batter Up Dance Perforance
The song is good..but I just wish YG gave them their own individual sound instead of making it sound just like a typical Blackpink song. This sound doesn't stand out to me, even though there vocals were good. I thought it was going to a be different sound more like r&b etc, I guess not. Hopefully the next song will differentiate themselves from BP more 😊
But YG had said before that this would be a hiphop group. I don’t know why you and other people expect them to sing rnb.
@@chalenz12 just would of sounded good with their voices..& literally everything they were singing pre-debut was r&b. It would of just been a nice change, that's all. 🤷🏽♀️
Looks like Loki!
Hi. Not Babymonster related but did he already reacted to rv's comeback and killing voice? I might missed some vids😅
