    Interesting song 5 years ago. Like man idk it’s fine but they are never hitting it big with these.

    In the best possible way, this sounds like an Aepsa song that was pitched to them, rejected and given to Kep1er instead.

    I love this sound for them and ever since Yum I think they found their sound. I really like this on first listen and they look great too.

    It’s ok

    BUT – I’m a huge fan of Kevin_D & his team, they were responsible for the majority of Pixy and Craxy’s music & this very much feels like a re-hash of their work. Particularly the “killaaaaaa” – very reminiscent of Pixy’s Bewitched. The instrumentals are very Craxy – including the “switch up” in sound towards the end. 

    I feel like they’ve pulled something outta the archives for this – which is a shame bc they’ve got it so right for Kepi til now (Bubble Gum, Problem & Shooting Star).

    Kep1er always have solid b-sides though so hopefully they’ll be more interesting.

    It’s okay but nothing special. I fear they won’t stick out with this… :/
    I loved Yum but I feel like those title tracks are not really that good compared to it

    Edit: No need to downvote me, I’ve been a Kep1ian since predebut 🥲

    Not feeling this direction

    Feel like they got something with tipitap and yum but these last two releases have been disappointing

    man i just wish this was better. If they had to do girl crush both Bubble Gum and Yum achieve a similar vibe but are far better songs imo. This is just painfully generic :(( which is a shame because it looks like the MV had a decent budget.

    I’m i the only one who LIKED it? Like the entire album. Come on. I thought every song was a banger.

    They look so good in the MV! By far my favorite hairstyles/colors they’ve had so far. Xiaoting and Bahiyyih especially stood out to me, and of course Dayeon’s bob is iconic!

    I really like the song and MV as well. Shooting Star remains my favorite title track, but I definitely enjoy this one too! I can’t wait to see the live stages, the choreo looks so cool

  12. SigmaKnight on

    I like it.

    The effect on the word “killa” takes me out, but I’ll get used to it.

    Definitely visually serving. Dayeon really stood out in this one.

     

    Edit: Don’t sleep on “Lowkey.”

  13. ultsiyeon on

    idk yall i’ve yet to dislike a kep1er title track. i think a song like this is what plays to most of their strengths, performance skills have always been their main asset. xiaoting in that final chorus? literally lethal.

    and i am really vibing with the rnb throughline of this whole album! kind of obsessed that the english name of 있지 is “lowkey” lmfao

  16. Alert-Rip4561 on

    I love Kep1er but I miss the Shooting Star/Tippi Tap sound 😩

    I like this as an MV but I wouldn’t add to my playlist

  18. sherriablendy on

    That outro!! The vocal fry part of the chorus is fun, personally I’m vibing with this more than I did Bubble Gum, especially outfit-wise. Ready for the live stages

    Kep1er is best when they have a touch of playfulness to the crush sound (wa da da, tipi tap, grand prix, giddy, galileo) or when there is elegant overtones (shooting star, yum, straight line). Going too far into cute or crush (iddy, we fresh, bubble gum, wing wing, killa) makes them fall a little flat compared to what I think they were aiming for. The songs aren’t bad, but i cant see myself searching them out to listen to or recommending them to others.

    It has 3 choruses (and the song doesn’t open with one), a bridge, an outro, and is just under 3 mins long.

    I like it and everyone looks amazing. This def feels like a song that will be elevated by stage performance/choreo.

  22. Specific-Soup-8033 on

    its a great song! but it doesn’t feel like a song that could go viral
    I feel like the dance break was not really correlating with the song, it felt like a sudden shift but other than that its a great song especially the pre-chorus and rap
    I wish they released songs like problem, even in this album addicted 2 ya is such a good title track material and songs like mic check and lowkey can bring so much of audience aswell
    really wish they did a double title track/pre-release of addicted 2 ya to bring in more audience

  24. Slayonie on

    I might be biased towards a certain member who is indeed KILLING it in this MV, but I’m LOVINGIT!!!!!WOHAAAAA!!!!AREYOUKIDDINGMEEEE??????

    sorry, still too fresh for coherent thoughts.

  25. TheSirenSounds on

    Fun song but I feel like a performance video or a live performance would help it.

    Felt like too much was happening on screen and couldn’t focus on the singing/rapping.

    Hikaru and Dayeon are as amazing as always
