THEIR BEST TAPE YET?!? | XG TAPE #4 | JURIN, HARVEY, MAYA, COCONA | REACTION 

The "hate" comes mostly from Korean netizens to a certain degree because xg doesn't consider themselves as kpop but X-pop instead while promoting in Korea. It's really unfortunate because they just want to appeal to everyone on earth.

Their talent is out of this world 👽 🛸 Happy Birthday!

To explain the hate that XG gets. Some of it is from South Koreans who have a, let's say 'complicated', history with Japan. So that is what it is. But they also get some (vocal minority) hate over accusations of cultural appropriation and 'black-fishing'. Which is obviously ridiculous if you know anything about XG, Simon (their DP), or their org, they are only ever paying homage, and love hip hop and black culture in general. This tape 4 showing is incredible to me. The thing I love the most about it, is that you can tell the writers and the girls decided to tackle the cultural appropriation accusations head on. Every girl had a line in their tape addressing it. Harvey: "They don't like my tone as if it's pitch black" -- They don't like her tone because she's pitching it to sound "black" Maya: "I spit like this but look like that, to some of y'all, it must be a complicated complexion" -- With a skin complexion like Maya, you wouldn't expect these bars. Cocona: "Am I a gift and a curse for the culture? when I spit with these words, could it hurt ya?" -- Is XG hurting the culture by being this hip hop? Does it take away from the struggle? Jurin: "And I always deciphered the beat, no rap parody" -- They aren't pretending to be rappers, they ARE rappers. For me, it's Maya. She slid on that beat, her cadence and flow switches were immaculate. And Cocona with the XG writers, some of whom are black producers from Atlanta by the way, penning an absolute love letter to HOVA. Harvey and Jurin were still top-tier in this tape, but I think a step below Maya and Coco. The two youngest in the group are absolutely insane hip-hop prodigies... and I can't wait to see where they go from here.

The 3 singers just dropped VOX #6!!! It’s a throwback jam!!!

Trampoline came as a surprise, probably why most reacted to that separately. Definitely should check out their Vox #6 and Undefeated releases. Both dope. They have an all rap single dropping May 21st, keep an eye out! ✌️

Happy birthday 🎂 brother enjoy

This is XG 🔥 Rap from another galaxy 🌌

Amy Jannet Harvey ❤

First name Amy. Family name is Harvey

XG Tapes are the only videos where I have to turn down the bass to keep my Sony Head Phones from bouncing off of my ears.

Amy Janet Harvey, Kawachi Maya, Akiyama Kokono and Asaya Jurin

Not sure how much of Jay-Z fan you are, you'd have to be a big fan to get all of them, I know you did catch several... but these were the references from Cocona: "Prolly got more the 99 problems" - Jay-Z song 99 problems "I came saw conquered" - Quote from the song from the Jay-Z song 'encore' "put it on repeat like an encore" - reference to the song 'encore' "best rapper alive" - Jay-Z ad libs this in the original track at the end "with my X La Familia" - La Familia is a song off of Magna Carta Holy Grail "Galaxy empire state of mind" - Empire State of mind is a song with Alicia Keys off of The Blueprint 3 "Like a rock fell out the sky" - Rock-a-fella records reference "Am I a gift and a curse" - The name of The Blueprint 2 album "Come take a look at our blueprint" - Reference to The Blueprint album "Always ready to show and prove it" - Show and Prove is a song by Big Daddy Kane featuring Jay-Z, some would say Jay-Z's breakout verse

Their over arching theme is that they are aliens. There are references in all their original songs and in their original raps. (Not in their covers obviously)

In the 5 tapes in this series the people that are blurred are actual staff. They also have a "behind the scenes"

XG is to fk good lot haters 😂😂😂

Coco said, "Like a rock, ah fell out of the sky" ROCK-A-FELLA?! BARS!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Brah!, Been waiting for your reaction on this. Hope you get to catch all doubles and triples in their bars. Maya even slipped in a Yabi in her verse. Every single verse in Cocona's spit was Jay-Z reference thrown at the haters. Harvey And Jurin threw dismissive spit at the hater it was so subtle.

Remix "Losing You." Shoutout to FLO for Original "Losing You." XG Rappers Tapes #4 (hate anthem) Top 5 Jay-Z bar. Part of XG artistry concept they're aliens from another Galaxy. XG includes aliens concepts in their Music Videos for ALPHAZS can see.

The hate is more on the Korean thing as XG is breaking the Kpop stereotypes.

XG is becoming a very scary group so they gonna get a lot of haters
