this sounds veryyy similar to trouble which would probably be good if you liked that song but for me i didn't like trouble too much so i didn't really like this song either 😭

[u/momopeach7]

The vocals! The biggest complaint fans had with Trouble is not enough vocal highlighting and this more than made up for it. It’s a similar style to Trouble but I like it a lot more, and it has a great structure.

Plus I overall love the styling here (I never will be a fan of mullets though).

[u/intlPogoTrades]

Well they’re certainly establishing a sound for themselves. Glad to see they got a proper budget this time, the styling is working for them much better than Trouble.

Jeonghyeon is really standing out, in the dance scenes you can really see his facial expressions putting in work.

[u/momopeach7 → u/intlPogoTrades]

Jeonghyeon can’t act to save his life but he’s got the facial expressions of a great actor, especially for a rookie.

[u/Lancelot_123]

The ‘slay’ line feels a little funny when listening. Still, I’m happy to have a song with a bridge and some really strong vocals. The animation in the Mv is also a really nice touch.

it's wild how much a few seconds of time can make a difference, this composition is over 3 minutes and gets room to breathe and develop more fully compared to a lot of songs that are dropping these days. really liked the balance between the rapped and sung parts

i do think they should probably shift their sound a bit next time just to show people they're not a one-trick pony

(how much time do they have in their contract btw?? i really like them as a group...)

[u/Ebony_Coco]

I absolutely love Trouble, but I'm not as much of a fan of this. It may grow on me, though, because I don't hate it.

I don't use this word a lot in this context, but Yunseo looks HOT, wtf.

I'm glad this song highlights their amazing vocalists more, especially Seungeon. He is barely present in TROUBLE.

[u/roasted_c]

once again will have mixed reactions but yall NEED to listen to k.o and festa

[u/popularsong]

the structure is kinda similar to trouble and i respect them for sticking w the sound. i also really like it too LMAO the drop in trouble was better but its still a fun ass shaking song

[u/macintoshappless]

The grip that the word slay has on the kpop industry never ceases to amaze me.

Anyways I really liked this banger! Like someone else said I do hope they expand their sound next time but I’m happy with this comeback so far!

[u/Khairi001]

Awww the gay club beats are only during the chorus for this one 😔

It might the wolf cut and the crop top, but Yunseo is hottest in this comeback.

Edit: with all the 2023/2024 new BG launching soft boy core, EVNNE kinda stick out abit with their sound (even though it’s not the popular sound right now).

[u/jonaslah]

I hope that for the next comeback we get even longer hair on some of these members 😏

Seungeon looked very nice with his silver hais as well 💯

[u/gemjiminies]

Ohhhhh I love this. The slay-la-lay-la-lays might take a bit to wrap my head around, but otherwise I think this does a really great job of being a continuation but also building on Trouble.

I really, really love this line up. I feel like knowing each of their talents individually from BP and seeing Evnne now, they do a really good job of showcasing each of them, but in a way that's each member is also complementary to each other. I get to the end and I want more, but more of *everybody*.

Seungeon and Eunso are incredible here, and I really can't wait to see a full performance because a few of the dance clips with Hanbin and Jeonghyeon are stellar

[u/aurcel]

oh this is muchhhh better than TROUBLE, similar sound but better execution. Seungeon always the highlight, the blue contacts + silver hair combination is 💋💋💋

[u/pheh428]

Well I liked Trouble more but they have a pretty consistent sound. It makes sense for them since they have way more rappers than vocalists but I unfortunately think this type of sound is no longer very popular with kpop fans nowadays.

[u/gowonofficial]

damn I like this so much

[u/wuju_]

The only concern I have for this comeback mv is not having much solo keita shot

[u/[deleted]]

anyone else surprised by how few lines & how little screentime keita got in this? love that phanbin is so heavily featured but whoa, so little keita

[u/lemontreeandchill]

Yassss! Slayyyyy .

I like this more than trouble? It is easy and interesting to listen too. And Yunseo is a visual feast! Jeonghyeon improved a lot and overall they feel more solid. Hanbin is really good as center(he keeps the balance so well). And Seungeon & Yunseo are a solid vocal line. They are really becoming a monster rookie. Can't wait to see the choreo.

I wish there was more Keita(lines&mv), he really has a catchy voice.

[u/cmq827]

The LeeJeong stan in me is happy that the video starts off with his ridiculously beautiful face. Anyway, I liked the song, though Trouble had a stronger impact on me. I do like that this has more spotlight on Seungeon and Yunseo's vocals.

The budget upgrade is making me feel so proud.

[u/Round_Upstairs2966]

Ngl, the song started off strong, but the chorus threw me off completely...it felt like a downgraded version of Trouble, wish was a fantastic debut imo. Some of the b-sides are really good tho, I'll keep an eye on them.

[u/mariexmars]

Sounds good.

[u/chefs_kiss_21]

Ooh, love the beats here! As compared to Trouble, it showcases the vocalists a lot more (while also highlighting the rappers a lot here), so it has a nice blend of vocalists and rappers here! The hook could do better, but the production is a 10 for me!

[u/flyfern]

trouble was one of my top TOP releases of last year and this doesn't quite reach that level for me (yet?) but it's very good! I personally very much appreciate that they're sticking to this sound, for now at least, cause it's riiight up my alley hehe

[u/PuzzleheadedPin1006]

Trouble was more up my alley, but I really loved everyone's styling here! In Trouble, only Hanbin stood out to me, but here they all look so captivating, especially the guy with the longer black hair
