    Giselle stood out so much in this comeback!!! Thanks SM for giving her the center she needs <3

    It’s 8.5 good in my opinion. Don’t kill me please lol it’s just not Supernova or Whiplash repeat worthy to me and I’ve been hyping up the ae girls since Girls era

    This is really good. I feel like it has potential.

    I also feel like im hearing less and less of Winter every comeback. Doesnt help as a Winter biased.

  4. On first listen, I definitely like it more than dirty work. I think ningning and Giselle stood out the most, outside of cooper of course!

  5. yea this is catchy a f.

    no, it’s not the usual “aespa” song with the vocal bridge and whatnot but I still love it regardless. I do love that they keep on going into a different direction and musical style even when they *know* if they release a classic aespa song it’d still be an immediate hit

  6. I really like it. The only thing I was meh about was how many times they said I am a rich man, a little repetitive

    I loved it a lot more than I expected. Those lyrics are it. Music video is an 11/10. Winter kissing the ground to show that she’s still down to earth in contrast of the lyrics was perfect.

    I made the mistake of looking at the comments on the main kpop sub. People be haters but my opinion still stands as is. It’s no Whiplash, but it has that same infectious ear-worm to me.

    I think the songs production could’ve added some more texture to be grittier and harder. The chorus is also the weakest part to me, but I’m still bumping. Like I still feel like a bad bitch

    I AM A RICH MAN

  8. I feel like I’m in the minority but I’m gonna be honest, I love Aespa but this might legitimately be the most bland song they have released in a while

    Very repetitive and just dull like it doesn’t feel like it goes anywhere. About to listen to the rest of the mini album but yeah not a great start. Hopefully I’m wrong and the song is a grower.

    Edit: Listening to Rich Man on Spotify and not via the video was a more enjoyable experience. Still definitely not my fave song here by any stretch but it sounds more mixed and crisper on Spotify. I suggest people listen to it on Streaming if they only heard it via the Video on YT

  9. Seems there are mixed reviews of this song lol. I have had some people try to rain on my parade for expressing my love for it (not here.. in other places) but I cannot help it. I absolutely love the song and the message of confidence. I was disappointed in the Dirty Work lyrics but these lyrics are done right imo. However the MV was actually a bit overwhelming to me with how much was going on so not one of my favorites.

  10. I love most of it, I just don’t understand why they decided to repeat “I am a rich man” 1000 times. Like why on earth did they decide to have BOTH to prechorus and the chorus repeat that phrase?? They should have picked one and changed up the other.

    Love it!!! Yaaaaaaaas!! I am a rich man 💞

    Only critique I will say is the lack of high notes and vocals that should be an aespa staple! This was also an issue with dirty work so hopefully next comeback they go back to screaming in our face!!!

    But I do love this line distribution. Like almost down the line equal amongst all the girls! And you can tell the girls just love this one. I’m gagged!

  12. Its different from what I would not expect from aespa but in a good way if that makes sense. 

    A predecessor of the hidden gem lingo woth the slight cpuntey theme. The nod to nascar and football. Both very southern. With the same themes as better things and the rock instrumental they have been underutilizing in my opinion.

    Can’t wait to hear drift and angel 48 in full since those were the songs I was most excited to see.

    Drift sounded so catchy in the concert videos.

    Aespa kind of has this nac for releasing songs in ways I never thought of. This is almost so different in a way that I am pleasantly suprised. 

    Definitely going to be on loop for me personally. That leg move with clapping has had me in a choke hold for days.

    The song is good. This is definitely Karina era. Personally for me, she shined so much in the MV.💞💖💖

  14. yeah, it is nice but… Idk yet. Still processing…

    Too much visual information, didn’t quite catch me. confusing concept.
