This just goes to show that live singing does affect stage presence, they are 10x better here than all of their stages. Hopefully they'll get to do more lives like this for their next comeback
I usually just casually listen to their music but wow, Ningning blew me away with her stage presence, Giselle was so stable, Karina really proved herself as an all rounder, and Winter’s high notes sounded just like the studio version
90% of the high notes are lip synced + they cant sing unless they stop dancing and just start modelling + crowd are obviously bored. Sm failed hard to make a new blackpink.
Coachella really needs to invite AESPA again😤 They were so damn ready by talent back then but now they’re so damn more experienced and could eat the entire stage atp. The live vocals r literally crazyy
Ningning is shining here ✨ while Giselle proves herself to be someone who's on next level. Karina and Winter are always a total performer. But Giselle & Ningning stole the performance. 👏🏻
I love ningning but her vocals were shaky for a good part. Understandable because they don't do it alot live. She's an amazing vocalist and it will only improve
Uhm no.... She's terrible. SM should've given the main vocal role to Winter. At tleast she sang it with poise and power, Not just pure falsetto 😒 felt bad for bada really, how dare them link her name with this shit. The disrespect 🤮
Winter's vocals are SO stable! I lovedd herr singing the most of the four! AND ningning's and karina's STAGE PRESENCE are absolutely eye-catching and Giselle's rap is so addictive! Overall, for a group who doesn't sing live often AND are still rookies in the industry, this was SOOO GOOD!!!!!
@@nmixx.changeupletsgo jisso was the most famous in debut after "solo" jennie became the most famous, nowadays lisa is the most famous worldwide and in korea it is jennie
@@inwasteland i really don't think so though? i used to be a blink in the early days but stopped after ktl era. lisa has always been consistently the most popular internationally since debut, and jennie in korea mostly after solo. jisoo has constantly been 4th and rose 3rd, but jisoo has surpassed rose's popularity in the recent years
im so proud of these girls. it seems like not a lot of people are satisfied with their performance, but for a group who debuted in front of cameras with barely any experience with a live stage and audience, they did really really well. damn, imagine how nervous they were lol. they might not be the "best" but they definitely arent lacking, and im really excited for what they have in store for us in the future. well done girls!
You can see how much being able to perform live changes their stage presence. These girls went to SM to become performers and show off their talent. I’m happy they finally got to do that.
Some people complaining abt their vocals being breathy/shaky are the same people that hate on them for not singing live. I think the girls did well and i wld consider their singing quite stable considering they had to do some hard choreos. Well done girls. I hope to see them sing live more
No matter how big you improve no mattet how good you are if someone hates you from the very start they'll keep hating on you no matter what so let just ignore the haters 😉😉
It’s not just the choreo, the songs are freaking high pitched, even Giselle’s and Karina’s parts. I’ve seen covers of Black Mamba and Savage and it’s a darn struggle. These songs are hard to sing.
As a Sone, I'm supporting aespa too. Snsd must be proud of them. These girls don't deserve the hate. They are one of the most talented 4th gens out there. They are the overachieving rookie group. Believe me, they are just starting, they will continue to improve talent-wise
Giselle is so stable like especially in her rap part in Savage that fabulous. Her stage presence is also shining same for NingNing. They really stand out during Coachella.
Absolutely love how Winter sounds exactly the same as their studio version and even better. But right here she gave much more life to it. Her voice is golden ❤️
MAINSTAGE & SCARED AS HELL!! (They are still a NEW Band) 1 & Half years old ... They were in this being the face of ALL of K-POP To the USA ~ What a weight to carry but carry they did "Winter" Perfect ~ All of K-Pop should be proud of their representatives ... & Welcome the New windfall of interest to all of K-POP in AMERICA by AESPA ... Godspeed AESPA, Queens
their improvement is obvious, they sing live and their vocals are really good, they're on the biggest stage in America, their charisma, and their presence on stage everything is perfect. They did a great job, why should they receive criticism from the online community? they represent the gen4 girl group that's really very, very, very proud. We are always with you, wonderful girls 🤍
@@jaytwenty5034 people casually praising aespa talents and youre commenting about the stage lmao see when u have too much of a hatred and always nitpicking everything
8:00 To the person who said “ZU ZU ZU ZU” so energeticly and Loudly, I love that energy you have there. GO QUEEN AESPA. STAN AESPA, YOU CANT LIVE A LIFE WITHOUT AESPA
Winter has the largest chunk of lines in their songs and she displayed her vocal capabilities the best through stability. No matter what people may say, the western community will still remember them as the kpop group who served vocals in coachella
@@Dooyos What? I'm explaining why the high notes sounded perfect, I never said Winter was a bad singer or didn't sing at all... Why are Aespa fans so quick to jump to the "you're just a hater" thing? I didn't say anything bad about Winter, she was great and she's amazing live it's just it is physically impossible to reach high notes whilst moving... A basic fact 💀
Most of the time Karina and Winter will take over the stage presence but this time I just cannot take out my eyes on Ningning and Giselle! They really daebakkkkkk
I’m not shocked they sang live because I’m pretty sure it’s a requirement for Coachella but I’m also sure this is their first live performance. They did pretty good and if they sing live next comeback they will become more experienced!
@@katgreer6113 It is their first time performing live, all their other comeback stages and award shows appearances were prerecorded. The only live we've seen from them are their encores, radio shows and the special performances from the entertainment shows they've gone, but we haven't ever really seen perform live.

Ningning's years of training in SM Rookies really paid off in this Coachella performance. They may be a 1-year old group but Ningning as the main vocal really shined and carried the whole thing along with Giselle's confidence. Specially proud with Karina and Winter as well. There's a lot of room for improvement but they still delivered. Kudos!
Honestly Giselle sounds wayyyy better live! She loved the audience and improved a lot! She and NingNing finally shined. Karina and Winter definitely delivered too!
rookie group who hasn't had this big of a live crowd before and finally got to sing live and they killed it. wasnt a perfect performance since its completely different from what they've been doing but they did amazing and im so proud of them !!!!!! i cant wait to see them get even better and i hope their company lets them sing live more bc look how hyped they were !!!
The fact that aespa is just 1.5 years in their career and has 0 experience performing live in front of actual audience like this yet they nailed it 💯💯💯
@@crlnjn9093 Yes, but nevertheless it's still a skill that needs to be developed and it can only be improved through constant performing in front of a live audience. Training doesn't instantly make you an expert of everything
@@crlnjn9093 ellas debutaron en medio de una pandemia, los shows de música no tenían audiencia, el escenario de Coachella es enorme, literal es su primera vez presentándose en medio de tanta gente
TBH guys NINGNING killed so much... her live singing I really great like he had been doing live singing for a long time... her VOICE stands out too much and I don't have a hard time listening on her voice because of the POWERFUL VOCALS she has..... she really proved why she is the MAIN VOCALIST of AESPA.
Finally they are singing LIVE , and they did well , aespa let's go just when i was happy of 2ne1 making a stage comeback , we have aespa slaying their performance 🥳🥳🥳
I KNEW IT! I KNEW SOON THEY WOULD HAVE SUNG LIVE! And they slayed like they never did! I've always thought that they didn't have a lot of stage presence, but here they were absolutely perfect! They handled such a big stage being just four! Especially Giselle and NingNing, they looked so hyped and excited! With this performance they proved everyone they are perfect, I just hope they will start singing live in Korea too🥺
I’m super duper glad they did, not because i personally ever doubted or have problem with the way they have been performing. But those pressed people are really getting rude comparing and making fun of them. So funny everyone who probably cant even dance for shit on a stage in front of their classmates talks about vocal techniques, technical stuff in performing, stage presence etc like they are simon cowell just because they like kpop.
@@NickaLah oh, idk, usually it's really personal. Personally, I liked them a lot during their debut, they were my ults for a while, but after Next Level era since now, I liked them always less than before. Now, watching their Coachella performance, I'm loving them almost like before, but it's my personal opinion, it's normal if you don't agree
so proud of my girls!! they debuted during the pandemic and hardly had any chance to perform in front of an audience, this being of the firsts for them ofc they have to be nervous and especially because its a large crowd with casual stoppers not hardcore fans. despite all that they performed and delivered while having fun!! YOU DID GREAT AESPA
Completely agree!!!! Though they have less experience in front of a live audience, this was just awesome! I mean the live singing is chef’s kiss!!! So happy for Aespa!!
Actually there were a lot of MYs there who took impronto trips to see aespa but yes most of the crowd didn’t know aespa and now they know them. Aespa did great
Given time to develop their live stage these girls will really be the biggest group of the 4th gen, look how good Ningning and Giselle are here now! Imagine in a couple years with more experience under their belt.
Agree but I also feel like that one the reason why both Giselle and NingNing is giving their all out, I mean the confidence and hype is there is because they've been singing infront of a crowd before, Ningning being a contestant in one of China's biggest talent show and Giselle being a choir member. I guess that also helps lessen their stage fright.
@@donttalktomewhenyourfavesc2763 and you’re the same person that probably complained that they never sing live.. go do their choreo and sing in front of a crowd like that, i bet all you do is sit in bed and hate on people for fun all day. get a life..
@@donttalktomewhenyourfavesc2763 Love how people like you were complaining they were never singing live, and now you guys are hating their raw vocals for being shaky? Ya better understand this ain't middle school choreos, but rather some hard ones that can break your bones
It's really different when they sing live, it brings out the best in them, the confidence and stage presence. I hope SM will let this Queens sing live. Im so proud of them, slay! 😊💕
I've been into kpop for over 10 years, so I'd like to support any kpop group making it to Coachella... but I don't see any stage presence here. It was pretty boring tbh.
This is way better than any of their other stages when they were lipsyncing. The more practice they'll get the better they'll become. Live vocals don't have to be 100% perfect, but it does bring so much more energy and presence to the stage.
This is probably the first time I can actually hear them sing live. They're great, don't know what sm's problem is or whoever blasts their backtrack on full volume all the time.
@@soulsearcher7077 im not sure whether it was an encore or not, but aespa sang live right before coachella, its not that they never sang live. And whether it was an encore or not, they still sang live. So its not that they never did 🙃
Omg there vocals sound so good. I’m so in love with Winter & Ningning powerful vocals !! Giselle vocal color is really good. Karina sound good. People need stop complaining about vocals . They did the best they could, every idol doesn’t always bring the best vocals to table all time . They going have breathy vocals , strained vocals , vocals cracks .
I don't get why people are surprised about their live vocals: they are SM, OF COURSE THEY CAN SING LIVE. What I'm actually shocked is that they opened with aenergy. I don't hate the song, but not exactly the best to pump up the audience. SM can make breathtaking concerts, so I really don't understand.
Perhaps they are not used to them singing Live. But i agree 💯 SM artists are exceptional. It gives me goosebumps watching them performing in coachella. They come a long way. Keep it up #Aespa you did great 👏👏👏
Ningning is such a performer!! Many ppl were asking about the "blonde girl" Aespa did really really well!! I love to listen to their loud and energetic vocals I wish I was there too 😭😭
@@aveena2099 exactly!! Ningning sings out loud, she hypes the audience, she walks confidently, she dances energetically too! for me she was the best dancer in aenergy 🤩 queen bee behavior! i won't shut up when ppl try to discredit her or the girls
It's like how Lisa got fame cause of blackpink's first video. I'm not a MY but I love Ningning so much 😭😭 (pls don't attack me y'all I just said it's similar to how Lisa got famous that doesn't mean I hate Ningning or aespa 💀💀)
And the fact that she’s not a innate dancer, but could still memorize the steps while delivering a great performance is amazing. Her training period is the same from when next level was posted to now (11 months ago), bro it felt like yesterday when that single came out. That is such a short amount of time to debut
Bro, the majority of comments ARE hating on them (and they especially where at the time). This was NOT a good live performance. A lot of the vocals where strained or shaky (and there was some uncomfortable shouting) and they were definitely not ready for this performance (which I blame entirely on SM). There where good moments but they sound really awkward during a lot of it and don’t know how to handle the crowd at all. Stop deluding yourself please. Also the backtrack was used clumsily in some places but that’s the least of the problems here.
They said it "every day we get better" I think now they are the best 4th gen gg they have stable voice and amazing performances an example of a perfect kpop girl group for me. This performance when they debuted and they ate.
The reason why they look bored in their stages is because theyre tired of lypsyncing. People are just used to watching artists faking facial expressions while lypsyncing to pre recorded vocals
Interesting. I thought Karina and Winter would be the stand outs. But after watching this, I feel like Ning Ning and Giselle really stood out and embodied the “American” vibe: It’s not about being perfect or the best, it’s about having charisma and being raw. It’s strange watching their performances without the typical K-pop production and fast cuts. You really see who stand outs. Karina and winter are amazing always of course, but somethings seemed a bit off or lower energy than usual. Maybe they were just nervous. But also, they were really singing live, so maybe we’re just not used to them conserving their energy and not dancing as full out. Great performance overall though and proud of them!
Thats what I've been wanting to say. I mean, yes Winter is stable but she danced and sang almost perfect like its her main objective which made her performance boring. And you are very right, Ningning and Giselle has the charisma, maybe gigi just needs to work a little abt her stage presence. Anyways, this is just a beginning. Im still rooting for the girls.
@@cloud-ux5lj And since they sing over a backing track the whole time, i wonder if they’re sometimes scared to ad-lib or riff or even shout out to the crowd; for fear of missing their part. It’s like, if they don’t sing along perfectly with the backing track, it’s going to appear like they’re just lip-synching. I know on Korean television, it’s all about being “perfect” and singing every line. But it would be nice to hear them change it up a bit and have more fun with the song when they sing live. Even Beyoncé doesn’t sing every single word of each verse. I saw a little bit of it with this Coachella performance, and I definitely would like to see them have more fun on stage!!
@@cloud-ux5lj literally could not describe winter better. her perfection in dancing and singing is undercut by her nervousness. she will develop charisma with time !!
They dance not much... but th3y out off breath... screamm here and there....off beat sometime...dead fish audience...the songs really strange... an you right...yess ningning is the most stable mentally... she is amazing...only her who is shining here.. no wonder SM recruit her eventhough she is Chinese
I'm just amazed at Winter, how she holds herself and feels like being in control and calm throughout the performance with her almost perfect singing most of the time just like the studio version. Karina also the same, the way she did the adlibs for the last song, and the perfect intro to Next Level, she's really the all rounder. Ningning and Giselle did great too! Hope they'll be able to perform for live audience more
Yes I was actually doubting if Winter sang live or it's just the back track. Because most of the time, her voice sounds like the studio version, she's really an amazing vocalist, her voice is so clean, stable and beautiful. It's all thanks to her vocals that I stanned aespa btw
@@forhendery7005 did you go around pointing out 'weaknesses' of every member or it's just Winter? For me, her stage presence is just fine, it doesn't bother me at all.. Every single member need to improve in different aspects, but I don't go around saying something about that to the other members' comments that compliments and hype them. it's just so weird that you need to reply with that under mine.
im a blink. i know that i dont to mention this. but i want mys to know that not all blinks or blonks bad mouths other artists. every kpop group deserves to have their shining moments. regardless if their the "1st" or not in anything. everyone has the right to dream, so as me and you🙂 aespa did well in their live stage and most important them and their fans enjoyed this historic moment for their idols. ☺️ by the way, i love their new song, it has a nostalgic vibe to it ❤️
As a blink and a fan of aespa, it hurts to see many people fighting over who was better. Obviously the crowd is more quiet because these r rookies we talking abt. Honestly the fact this is their first time in front of a big crowd and their singing LIVE. Props to the girls. Edit: I think people are confused on why i think the reason for the crowd being quiet is because they are rookies. First of yes, aespa is considered rookies still in the Kpop industry because they only just debuted about a year ago. Second they are rookies when it comes to international stuff, SM hasn't really made their mission to push aespa internationally so this leading to the crowd maybe not knowing them. And third, if people were really bored at the music(which still could be), wouldn't they just leave instead of recording or whatever. So to compare, Blackpink having 3 years in the industry and international push=loud crowd, aespa having 1 year in the industry and no international push=quieter crowd. Facts are facts.
*Even non fans and casual listeners keeps praising them. Aespa, you've come this far within less than 2 years. All of you are absolutely amazing, it's not a smooth journey but that's life. I'll always believe in your skills and talents. Keep improving as a performer and a person. We're rooting for the best future ahead. MYs will always supporting AESPA.*
The girls did not prove me wrong. From the beginning people said they had no stage presence and can’t hype up a crowd but I knew all of that wasn’t true. They sang live and proved that they just as good as any other group. This was their first time and they did amazing. Love you Aespa
@Ethereal im allowed to say it the way that I want tho, I don’t care if I get attacked, I said “they improved a lot” there’s obviously people with better stage presence
stage presence is subjective and personally i don't think ningning has any stage presence, winter and karina are the stand out here in this performance
SLAYED girls, the first 4th g girl group to go to the biggest stage in America, finally they are singing live, vocals, visuals, charisma, stage presence, everything perfect, *the leaders of the 4th generation*
aespa singing live is indeed a blessing! The confidence, stage presence, and the amount of support they got from the audience is everything. Thank you for those who went to supports these babies. virtual hugs for yooou 🤍🤍🤍
Absolutely loved Ningning and Giselle's energy. Ace Winter and Ace Karina rocked it too! SM please let them perform live in their future stages as well, look how happy and confident they are. Thank you for posting this.
honestly it did seem like they were struggling a little. there’s so many high notes even though they sound good it will strain there voices eventually so i’m glad
GISELLE is so good when she is singing live I was really surprised even her dance improved and her stage presence don't get me started with ningning she carried the stage she must be tired
Their live voices are even better than the studio versions bcs you can hear them raw and i like that ✋ specially karinas voice! Like it gives more oomf and it's deeper.
@Medic you genuinely can't compare them 🚶 specially since when blackpink performed they had more experience 💀. But beside that! They both slayed and did a great job and had fun.
I came back to see how well aespa ( a four/five gen kpop group ) did in coechella with their vocals and we can see the deference between HYBE and SM training 😂 And I don't agree with people who criticize their live vocals because they did very well specially that their song are quite difficult as they have some effects on the recorded version so being able to reproduce live their songs is very good and they stable in their high notes ...
Concluded most kpop stan really has high standard towards aespa. When their faves lipsync (latest kfest)- nobody critized but when it comes to aespa, itʼs a different matter. They suddenly become coaches for pointing out details, even with this coachella perf where the girls slayed so much. Taking it positively, aespa is really a force to reckoned with- that everybody gets mad for.
no seriously, I’m taking this ‘kpop stans has high standard on aespa’ as a compliment. like they actually understand our aespa really in a higher level (without them realizing)
