NME magazine posted this today praising XG for this past Sundays ICONIC performance: ---Head In The Clouds New York: 88rising comes home in style at globe-hopping festival In its debut east coast offering, HITC enlists the likes of XG, ITZY, NIKI, Rich Brian to transport the Queens audience. "The largest crowd, though, goes to XG - one of the most highly anticipated performers of the weekend as they make their US live debut. The huge audience isn’t disappointed as the seven-piece kick off with their early singles ‘Tippy Toes’ and ‘Mascara’ and then split to showcase their rap and vocal talents with covers like N.O.R.E.’s ‘Nothin’’ and Justin Bieber’s ‘Peaches’. It’s the final two songs that get the loudest response, though, as the group returns to the stage in matching denim to complete their domination of HITC with ‘Left Right’ and ‘Shooting Star’."
I was there near the stage and just took a bunch of photos🤣 They are so pretty!!! I loved the energy from the girls as well as the crowd!! They were in sync and their facial expressions 🔥 I'm glad they are getting the recognition they deserve! They are so talented!!!
Thank you so much! Tippy toes reminds me of Micheal Jackson, especially his “Money”. A part of calligraphy is very similar to his iconic dance. And this costume!! I grew up with Black hiphop in Japan, still a lot older than them , but I’m so glad younger generations like XG also get inspired and respect their music such as TLC, MJ or the fugees.
