This is so insanely impressive, not only because they just debuted, but because there’s zero backtrack playing behind their live vocals. There’s no kpop group doing it like Mamamoo.
I've NEVER seen a rookie group has the ability to hype the crowd like what Mamamoo did. And when I say NEVER I mean NO ONE DID IT LIKE MAMAMOO! Gosh you can clearly see how they were so nervous here compared to themselves in the present. Still, they sang it all live! Wheein shone ever since she appeared on the stage (I fell in love with her thanks to this stage), Solar went all in with those high notes, Hwasa hyped tf out of the crowd while MoonByul nailed her rap part. AND BISH THAT'S HOW SINGERS/ ARTISTS SHOULD BE! SINGING LIVE & INTERACTING WITH THE AUDIENCE not just lip syncing while showing skins & fake smiles. I know it's little hard to accept but if one always lipsync/ sing live badly without any single improvement though they've debuted 2-3 years... then they should be dancers or photo models instead. Those ain't deserved to be called singers while Mamamoo worked their asses out, burning their fk throats to living up with that title!
@@chimmy9455 while i agree that 2Ne1 is a great performer, specially when it comes to hype the audiance. But in term of vocal no body, i say no body can out sing Mamamoo in kpop industry (as an idol - big mama basicly just a singer/acapella group). 2NE1 is more hype in a rapping side couse CL is t"hat Bitch" when it come to rapping. While Mamamoo serving whole as a performer
still crazy that they performed like this as rookies. also this was back when you rarely heard pre-recorded live vocals, and the focus wasn’t on robotic perfect choreo but actually commanding the stage and engaging the crowd
I love how they all made little mistakes and I can feel they're all nervous. I'm so used to the PERFECT PERFOMERS version of mamamoo so I find this really refreshing for some reason. As always, their passion is exuding in this performance! POWER ROOKIES MAMAMOO!
Wheein missing the start of her ad-lib and then coming back in to finish it perfectly (just shortly after 2:50) is one reason I love this performance so much. When I first watched this, I didn't know Piano Man very well and honestly had no idea that anything was missing. Now it's obvious to me because I'm familiar with the song. Her confidence in being able to make a mistake and then fix it perfectly as if nothing had happened, as a 7-month rookie performing for the first time in front of pretty much the entire K-pop industry - that gives me chills. Actually the whole performance, from all four members, gives me chills. Two and a half weeks earlier, they were on Immortal Songs 2 for the first time. An amazing era for Mamamoo.
2:09 literally i think they purposely let wheein walk ahead on the circled stage cause in case the other 3 messed up the choreo while reaching the stage knowing wheein she can effortlessly catch up no matter what the choreo on that part is so they they can easily follow wheeins,,
Omg you can see how nervous Wheein actually is - her legs are shaking at 3:33 but you would never think that in the performance because they seem so confident and amazing!
I dont think not because shes nervous bu i think its the stage going down and stopped. Shes trying to balance her bod.. just saying..lols but as per solar they are always nervous everytime they perform.. it will never disappear- as per madonna as well.. :)
I think her legs aren't shaking, it's because the stage was going down to a stop so it jolted a little and she is wearing heels so it jolted and she was trying to keep her balance.
Their first award show performance and they WERE ROOKIES, but look at the artistic performance and stage presence XD. Before Hwasa said "are you ready" I think she almost slipped but it's not clear.
Solar kept almost stepping on the end of her skirt nultiple times, and Whee In almost missed her part at 2:50 as well, but you wouldn't even notice if you didn't know or weren't looking closely! The professionalism even as rookies is undenyable!
It's amazing how a rookie group was doing a performance with no backup track. The four girls who are hella nervous and still managed to pull off this performance well. It wasn't perfect or best synchronized but rawfully beeautiful and undoubtedly my favorite one.
This is so live!! I didn't even heard the back up voices to support them wowwwww! I watched this for who knows how many times now but this still remains the purest of all performances. You can hear their nervousness but still slays ugh I Stan the right group.
Byeol kk It’s amazing live work. The adlibs were awesome! I love how they add or augment their live performances so there is no doubt they are live in a world of lip syncing wonders. MooMoo for life!
In the beginning it seemed like they were quiet(especially Solar) and they didn't sound sure of themselves but at around 1:38 you can hear a major difference in quality, as if they gained confidence immediately.
I thought that the mics of Solar and Hwasa did not function correctly or it was screwed up in post processing due to compression and filtering since at Solar sounds louder in 0:25 at the begining then 0:42-0:57 sounds too quite in an uneven quality. Similarly, the voice of Hwasa from 0:59 - 1:14 also sounds discontinuously in terms of quality and volumes. Overally speaking, the voice source of this video is not in good quality in my opnion but they still performed very well :)
Mamamoo dancing & singing it live but now a days k-grups cannot sing live on encore stage 🤐... Really mamamoo set my standards so high for live singing ❤💅👑 Indeed Queens 👑❤️😍
idk why i felt so nervous while watching this. it isnt the usual vibe Mamamoo emits when performing. I love it! I can see how much they've grown from their shy rookie stage to becoming confident and iconic group! Rookie or not, their performance always slay! Mamamoo does not give a mediocre performance 💕🙌
For moomoos and MMM this is a real special one, the way they were too nervous, Hwasa cracking voice, they shining, people screaming. It's beautiful. I cried watching this, I always do.
@@rizqiaannisa5219 This was the first ever MMM performance on an award show afther only five months of debut, they kinda where no one, their fanbase was pretty small so it's very emotional for us Moomoos to remember those trainees and debut days cuz they were hard ASF. But look at them now
Usually most companies will give back phone to their artists only if they achieve 1st music show win and RBW was supposed to did the same but had to return it to Mamamoo bc they won ROTY. Which is amazing for 5 months old group from small company to quickly achieve that. An annual award that prestigious than weekly award.
@@lindaiglesias2176 Right? I'm always so proud of them, for how much they've achieved through the years, and so grateful for their hard work too. They're such Queens!
@@lindaiglesias2176 wow, thanks for your answer. I just know there is reply because i replay this video. I even forgot commenting. Can i joim to radish farm? I've been streaming their vids since then.
ngl i just keep coming back to this video. . they’re truly born to be a performer, to be an artist! look at their confidence, look at their performance! they were rookie at that time! if now we see rookie perform like them, i bet they will make you shiver down your spine 👌🏻 truly chef kiss
RBW girl group both mamamoo and purple kiss have a beautiful vocalist. Not all members need to do high note. Just harmonising the song shows that the group is great
The best part is when they sang together on the little round stage, which is so dynamic and vibrant! I feel the ending of stage for "I'm alright" by four vocal queens was trying to re-create similar vibe but I like this stage better as 1+1+1+1 > 4 for Mamamoo :)
The only piano man I need is this Moonbyul🤭 I'm about 🤏🏻 this close to making a time machine and going back at this time to shoot my shot😅🤭 Hwasa's excitement is infectious, Solar got excited in the end too. They are so cute🥹 Wheein's dimple, her vocals, her smile🥹 I love the excitement and passion despite the nervousness, and to think this was their first award show performance! Rookie Mamamoo will always be precious to me🤍🤍🤍🤍
Coming back here just some days after their 9th anniversary and I can't express how I'm proud of them, my girls were already so shiny and incredibly perfect at that time, just rookies but already amazing performers and now just queens of the performance, of the stage, of perfection, they are incredible and they deserve the world, I can't stop crying💚💚
every few months i come back to this performance just to remember how amazing hwasun's intro, wheebyul's dance, hwabyul in suits, wheesun in those dresses are.
Gaah, imagine them revisiting this concept for a debut anniversary (maybe next year?) aaah they were talented babies then but them singing this as grown, sexy mature still super talented queens? aaahhh sigh. I hope they doooo
This is the first video of Mamamoo I watch. I watch this on February 2016. Since then I never acknowledge other k-pop idols as artist. Sorry not sorry.
I can't believe that this was their first award show as they only started... never I've seen a group being that competent and this good as they started. Their talent cannot be describe...
