Maddox is a composer and a singer in KQ ! He does the narration for ATEEZ a lot if not EVERY time when they do intros like this on their albums! Also, I wonder if you listen to the live version of Empty Box if it would change your mind? But also I definitely understand why it’s not a hit for y’all! The whole album for me tho is such a hit, I’m a big BIG fan of every song! Maybe live stream of Jose playing a horror game? 😂
Maddox is a soloist and producer with KQ. He does the vast majority of the English narration for Ateez intro/interlude/outro tracks. He also has done a duet cover of Ditto with Jongho, which may be why you recognize him. He's an amazing vocalist and is very close to Ateez. eta: Ateez just dropped a special clip of Empty Box, and they've done it live several times. You might consider a revisit to see if you still don't vibe it. Not every song is for every person, so I get it, but I find Empty Box absolutely beautiful in an aching heart sort of way.
My fav from this album was definitely Blind, second favorite is Empty Box because I’m in love with Yunho’s vocals. The version of it they did in Killing Voice was really good! I’m still getting used to Shaboom lowkey 😂
Shaboom is by far my favorite track on the album. I listen to Shaboom on repeat it's such a fun thrilling listen each time. Empty box has high key beautiful moments but I do think it could've been a little shorter. The Dingo killing voice version is WAY better.
Been essentially a crap week at work and coming home from another stressful day , but this put a grin on my face. You guys really put a smile on my face with your enthusiasm. Like you Shaboom had my head spinning and there’s not another group in the world could do that and have me love it. 😂❤ Realistically Work is not my style of music at all but I’m in love with it. Ateez has me liking things I never would before.
Thanks for reacting to ATEEZ 's new album! It's very different from their previous works, isn't it? Provocative, as you said. These boys are always taking risks!! That's what makes them so especial, in my opinion..❤ And I agree with you, Freddy, when you say the choreos elevate the songs. It's impressive how they can dance that well while singing (with such stable voices!)❤
the love for BLIND Is insane, i can relate cause we all love it more than WORK haha. SHABOOM is so trippy , it hits you hard on second chorus and you just go shaboooooom and yalooooooo haha
I've watched multiple reactions to Golden Hour and every single person without fail starts involuntarily dancing to Blind. And yes I agree it's giving World Cup theme song in the best way possible. For me Blind is the standout song on the album. Don't get me wrong I love Work. But I kind of wish this album had double title tracks Empty Box i really appriciate because as much as i love their hard hitting songs, sometimes i just want to chill and Empty Box is great for that Shaboom is such a crazy song because it absolutely should NOT work and yet it does. Siren actually competed with Crazy Form to be a title track and siren for sure gives World series vibes
This album is so random (looking at you Shaboom) but still chefs kiss 😂😂😂 Had me dancing, then emotional, and then right back to grooving lol! Side note--> they have a collab coming out on July 1st with Be:First (Japanese boy band with a phenomenal rap line and a heavy emphasis on dance, so similar to ateez). I believe it’s called Hush:Hush (don’t quote me on that lol) But it looks like a full collab with all eight members of ateez and all seven members of Be:First. ❤
im actually shocked you guys dont like empty box!!.... its such a beautiful song but if slow songs arent for u, i get thatttt thanks for the reaction!!~
Maddox is part of KQ's Edenary team. He is involved in Ateez music from the start. He is an amazing singer too. He hasn't released an album under KQ, but he is very much an important part of the family. Check out Jongho and Maddox's cover of New Jeans' Ditto.
Your reaction to Shaboom was my FAVOURITE from all the reactors I've seen react to it. That was HILARIOUS. And love the provocative reference, made me laugh so freaking hard.
Maddox is a singer, songwriter and producer. He’s under kq too (ateez’s company) has a few songs and is currently working on his first full album. He got added to the edenary team not long ago
I've been laughing together with y'all from the start until the end of video 😂 love you guys so much, keep reacting to Ateez pleasseee P/s: Blind has been on my loop since the first day of the album release 🔥
They worked a lot on beats in this album. Each song is a banger. It's not just a typical K-pop album. All these songs can be nominees for prestigious rewards, not only in Korea. Shamoob finished me. That was a mix of everything😅
I wonder where yall would put the „the world ep2 outlaw“ album on that list? Do you put all the albums and outlaw just ranked low or do you just put the ones you’ve reacted to after starting this list?
I honestly believe they choose a wrong title track. For me Work is my least favorite song of this album and the songs I like the most are not being performed anywhere. I makes me think we're gonna have a Dune / Outlaw situation where those bangers are not played live ever and makes me sad 😅
