Baekhyun is one of the best singers and one of the most passionate i ever seen he never stopped practicing and develop him self ! I appreciate he’s personality
I love 9 of them and D.O. is my ultimate bias but I appreciate compliment for all of them. Kai vocal is warm and unique. They shine differently in different song. I love Sehun's part in Paradise. DFTF album, I appreciate more of Chanyeol, Kai and Sehun part even though I'm over the moon because D.O. is back hehe 💕
"Obsession" is the most underrate EXO album, and I don't think there will be an objection. "Jekyll" is my favourite, and it has live performances in their concerts with "Obsession" costume (not in high quality unfortunately) Chanyeol and Kais' vocal is the biggest surprise in this album. Chanyeol's soft rap in "Groove" is as sexy as hell
Kai's vocal really stand out on this album. Ofcourse we have suho, chen and baekhyun but the absence of kyungsoo and xiumin give rise to the ever outstanding vocals of kai.
I think DMUMT is leaning on the more Pop/mainstream side while OBSESSION is the most experimental, but they are both no skips albums (duh, it's Exo)...unless someone loves to hate for sport it's almost impossible for someone to dislike Exo, they literally have every freaking genre on their albums! I personally love DMUMT the most, but tbh there isn't a single album I didn't like! (ps: I get why day after day might sound weird at first, but after a while, it ended up being one of my favourites! give it another chance in the future!)
This album is truly one of my favorite Kpop albums. Of any group. It’s just really well made. It’s got a specific sound I love and not one song feels like filler. It’s not a trend. But it’s timeless good songs. Exo as always but this specific album is really unique.
I hear you when you say Kai's voice is so unique. One of Kai's names is Voice Colour King. And a lot of reactors, vocalists, performers and people with a good ear for music also name Kai's voice as the most unique and favourite! I love it the most too, I can appreciate all of their voices (Baekhyun's makes me cry at particular notes), but you can never miss Kai's and it's so obvious for what reasons they put him as second voice in particular llines. I don't know if there's any other singer with such unique timbre.
Butterfly Effect is one of my fav. song in this album. EXO dedicated this song for EXO-L and the lyric is just beautiful. Anyway thank you for this reaction, can’t wait for DMUMT album reaction - it’s A BOP!!
Exo winter albums are: Miracles In December, Sing For You, For Life and Universe 🥰 Can't wait for your reaction of them! When you have time, of course 😍 I know you said you don't like Christmas music but hopefully these albums will result to a change of heart ❤️
Sir I know, EXO's vocals are so satisfying to listen to, I am feeling the same I am a student it take me awhile to have a chance and listen to music and damn when I play EXO's songs I feel so satisfying. Those hight notes and law notes just everything
"Trouble" is my favorite song on this album, and the first time I listened with headphones, I got so into it that I slipped on black ice and busted open my knee at "Good feels bad, bad feels good," lol. Obsession is in my top 3 EXO albums, but my personal favorite is The War: The Power of Music repackage.
Let's wait when Suho, Chen, Baekhyun and/or D.O. release a rap album. Since we all know that EXO's rapline can sing. Maybe it's time to hear the vocal line rap (more)too?🤧
@@prescillasabalbarino4601 I know all of that! I've watched it. 😆 Because I know that EXO can literally do anything. It's just that sometimes as an EXO-L, I tend to imagine things that are waay bigger than what was given. And one of them is to hope that the vocal lines would release a rap album. It's gonna be funny (and lit) to see the vocal line rap and the rap line sing though (in an album where they exchange positions😆). It'll gonna be something beyond any others decision and expectation 😆. I didn't say the members above didn't rap. I even saw them rap (as a game) during EXO's showtime. And even on others side tracks. It's just different to see/hear them only rap in an album🤧 though it may not really happen. I'm just saying. I still love them more when they sing since it's their in-born talent.🤗
@@mooniebby8294 There is one on Chill. Many other songs too even from the other album. But not often. He sometimes join the rappers in live performance as well.
My fave Exo albums are: "DMUMT", "UNIVERSE", "OBSESSION", "EXODUS" but honestly all of their albums are masterpieces lmao. Btw if you wanna react to their winter albums I recommend you to start with "Universe". It's just so good and it doesn't sound like other regular winter/christmas albums at all lol I feel like you'd like it! And if you wanna react to DMUMT, there's a repackaged ver of it that you can check out if you want to. Anyways! It's nice to have you back again. Thank you for the reaction 🤍
Honestly, King EXO just keeps getting better!!! Come 2022, I hope SM releases a compilation of their greatest hits to mark the group's 10th anniversary in the industry.
Yey finally we're here reacting to this album The lyrics on these tracks match so much with their concept from this Era. Literally top1 album to me, its so good!
There's a fancam of Kai during Jekyll live performance, by Mr.Destiny (best Kai's fancams), I don't know if there's another video of Jekyll live. Jekyll for a long time was my favourite in the whole world, then Groove, then Baby you are, then... Aaaah! All of their songs are the best period.
Literally this album is one of the best albums EVER. There are NO skips. Even the title track is amazing, normally I find that some b sides are better than the title track, but the b sides in this album compliment the tt so much. A masterpiece indeed ✨
Just a heads up, if you’re planning on doing the tempo album and love shot b sides, the channel “Oohmaya” is the most accurate. They are probably the most accurate and show who’s doing all the adlibs, harmonies, and high notes
I’ll be honest I LOVE EXO’s DISCOGRAPHY l mean every song, their album production is insane even if there’s song which is not that GREAT for me they’ll make it THAT GOOD with their vocals 😩💕 If i have to choose one from this album is butterfly effect for sure Thank you for the reaction ❤️
Just close your eyes and hear this beautiful vocals the diversity that they have is unbelievable Vocal Kings , The Kings Of kpop they took those titles for a reason
I almost had a heart attack with your entrance Sir Austin. Glad to see you back. Always remember we support you and you do you. Do whatever you want on your channel :)
Agree with you. I listen to any KPOP in general. A lot of good song BUT, really... there's something about EXO that make you keep falling for them everytime you listen to them. They are not the best but definitely one of the best. I even feel am I bias? Because why do I like most of their songs? Group, Sub Unit and Solos... All different colour but I like it all. Funny but true. I guess their vocal combination make the best result in KPOP. Compliment each other so well. See how different direction of style they go for their solo and subunits.. we can have all of the in the playlist, we have all kind of sound!
ahh it's been a minute! Obsession has definitely been an experimental album for sure one that I had to listen to a couple of times but I can confirm is a non skip album~ Jekyll does have a live performance you should def watch it!! I will never get over Kai's vocals and I'm glad you always mention how much you like his voice don't know why you get hate for saying so when it's true the beauty of his vocal tone is so unique and colorful I can't help but be in awe everytime I hear his voice on the tracks. My faves on this album are groove, jekyll, yayaya and day after day (I do love this song very much but I can see where you come from when you mean it seems a bit out of place) overall the exos never disappoint when it comes to bringing amazing music 🖤
their winter album especially UNIVERSE aahhhhh it just *chefkiss literally all of the bside are bop! 'Lights out' that chen's write make that album more special to me 😭 the calmest album indeed! And 'Fall' aahhh isso gewddd, cant wait for your reaction sir!! 🥰
9:54 yeeeees. It’s definitely about that, even in the song you have like the screaming bit and then exo almost replies to themselves. I’m not very good with theories but I read somewhere that it was connected to the whole exo xexo thing. The song is like a conversation between their dark and good side. Omg I’ve commented like four times already, I’m so sorry hehe 😭😂
I have this "ritual" where I stop listening to EXO at all for 2-3 months. And then, when I listen again, just like you said, it hits different. They are sooo good. Every. Time. Every single time, I fall for them again and again.
Oh btw, Lay dropped a new EP called "East." Hope you can react to the album since there is only 4 tracks. Plus the 40-sec visualizer and dance practice for Flying Apsaras.
I thought you were doing a Cousin It costume back there! LMAO! I just bought both versions of Obsession and I pulled EXO-Chen and X-Suho photocards! ♥♥♥
I don't like Obsession album at first but I realized I was just ignorant. But when I understand it, I appreciate it more and even became my FAVorite!!!🤧
The War and Obsession are my fave EXO albums. 🥰 Thank you for this Sir Austin. You may want to react to Obsession b-side live stages from Exploration concert. 😊
It is the first time that I see a reaction of an hour but it was worth it, I would like to have something from them just like you, greetings I remember when I started to follow Exo this year your videos were the first I saw I love each one of them...
KAI‘s voice is indeed very beautiful and unique ❤️ thank you for your reaction. I was waiting for it ☺️ JEKYLL IS MY FAVORITE song, i listen to it literally every day. But the whole album is just incredibly amazing 😄 OBSESSION album is a 👑 for a reason.
Love this album, sorry Xiumin and D.O. It will be interesting to hear how they adapt the songs for all 8/9. You are right about Kai. He began mainly as a rapper, but he worked so hard to improve his skills and confidence. The potential was always obvious. He's my favourite voice as well. Have you heard his Beautiful Goodbye? I can't remember if you have, if not, go listen to it. He did it as a live solo. Thanks for the reaction.
All of EXO's Winter Album please..All of their winter albums are healing albums. You are right that there is something in their vocals/music that simply touches your heart. Difficult to explain but for me it is magical, just makes me feel good and calm. ❤
Obsession is literally a queen👑 Omg I can't wait for you to also react to all the solo and sub unit albums. My favorite would have to be EXO-SC 1 billion views album 'cause you can feel how personal the songs are to Chanyeol and Sehun. I didn't know I can cry *that* much over an album hahahaha
The live stage of the tracks are definitely great! 😍😍😍 It's funny you said the same thing about BABY TO YOU ARE about the lyrics, "I'll give you baby". 😂😂😂 Higher Faculty pointed it out about misreading it as I'LL GIVE YOU A BABY 🤣🤣
When i said EXO still underated in this music industry, im really meant it, especially this album as its the only one didnt get million seller title😌✋ Obssesion album is so good and unique. Eventhought i didnt really like the concept, but the songs are masterpiece, different, weird but still good to hear 🌷
I am commenting a lot in this Reaction because i love the album so much! hahaha and my favorite of the songs is the Butterfly Effect because this song is my song that refers to EXO.... THEY SAVED MY LIFE! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree with you about day after day and even now is a song I don't usually listen to... it isn't a bad song at all, it just doesn't give me the same feel the others do. That being said, the album is still amazing 🥰 Btw, this has nothing do do with exo or the album, but your hair is looking great!
I get into fandom last year and obsession was the full album I first listened to because atthat time this was the latest album Chen was my favorite since before I got more attracted to him specially his low note parts ,his emotional delivery ,ofcourse highnotes too. And other one who got my attention most was Suho.Sometimes their voice sound so similar well now I can differenciate . Chanyeol's rap are crazily attractive too.
The sample is SWV - You’re the One…my mom isn’t really into kpop but she absolutely loved ya ya ya because of that sample. Ya ya ya is definitely giving early 2000s hiphop rnb
Trying to think about it, I honestly am not even sure what my favourite Exo album is, I don't really listen to each album on its own I just have a big Exo playlist that I shuffle :/ It might be Don't Mess Up My Tempo. But at least as far as I can remember I like them all. Oh well, I'm sure eventually you'll react to them all, maybe after I watch your reaction to every album I'll know XD
I am just at the star of the video ( nearly 2 minutes into it) and YES! Before Obsession, THE WAR was my ultimate EXO album, hands down. Like I remember how hooked I was went it was released and how well the album was working from the songs placement inside the album to the overall style of the song. This album was absolutely perfection and still is. And then... OBSESSION happened... damn, OBSESSION is godly too! It was the first time till THE WAR since I was that hooked with an EXO album! DMUMT was really not my style so I just barely listen to it, but with Obsession, I was back listening to that album multiple times everyday for weeks! From the songs' placement, the contrast between the songs, and the overall style, I love everything. I still don't know if I like The War better or not but both are godly. They are both queens♡
Love your hair ! didn't notice that earlier but yeah thank you again Sir Austin for giving us EXO content. For me "Obsession" is their best album for the reason that it doesn't sound like k-pop to me and I think it has everything I look for an album. Before I was torn between Obsession and DMUMT so I think these two are the best including The War but my personal top 3 favorites are 1st Obsession 2. DMUMT and 3. XOXO but seriously there's no album that I didn't like. As for winter albums, I think Universe tops all hehe. Lastly, I want to thank you again, your reaction video is what I like the most, it's honest, you vibe with the song and you have so much inputs - you pointed out things I didn't even noticed in the songs.
