They grew up listening to Lauryn Hill, TLC, Destiny's Child, Faith Evans, Keyshia Cole, Kehlani, Mary J Blige, Missy Elliott, Ciara, Beyonce, etc. That's not including their Pop influences which are from what I have seen.... Michael Jackson, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Billie Eilish, Justin Beiber, Carly Rae Jepsen, etc. Cocona danced to Pop Smoke in her MOVE #2 video and Jurin danced to Chris Brown in hers, so I bet those are influences of theirs too.
XG Vox line killed this ! I’ve been waiting for this 🙆🏻♀️ and they exceeded my expectations. These Trilingual queens 👸🏻👸🏼👸🏻 covered the OG Artists that they look up to and have mentioned in Interviews. 🚀🎶🌏🪐 JURIA’s cover ❤️🔥🇯🇵🙌🏽. CHISA covered MJ’s “Rock With You” the King 👑 of Pop on his passing Anniversary. 😢❤ I agree with all your comments and I just can’t enough of XG. It may be the Nostalgic and very emotional feeling but this AZN Girl Group hits different for me. Simon is an absolute genius for filming these in their respective areas South Korea, Japan and NYC. The ending was the icing on the Cake 🍰 for me. Thank you V3actions for taking the time to react to this XG Vox. 🙋🏻♀️🇺🇸🐺
And yes the location reflects the song they covered. Hinata in Korea, Juria in Japan and Chisa in the US. Hinata’s video was recorded during their shooting star era that’s why she has pink hair. Juria’s cover is a remix of both Stings song and Utada Hikaru’s.
This was filmed in Korea Japan and USA 😅since Simon had the idea which it is kind of creative❤and they dropped this on the day of one more year celebration of MJ’s death
You’re spot on with the powerpuff girls lol I think it was intentional. Red = blossom, blue = bubbles, green = buttercup. I think the colors worn were intentional too since Hinata is shy and got blue-bubbles
This is my wish other than a Full Version of each song of the VOX #5. Brandy & Monica - The Boy Is Mine for Chisa and Juria. Can even throw Hinata in there. I want to see Harvey do Britney Spears- Oops!...I Did It Again or ...Baby One More Time. I want Chisa to do Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle. I want Chisa, Juria, and Hinata to do Destiny's Child - Say My Name. I was thinking En Vogue - Don't Let Go (Love) except there's 4 members so Idk how that will work.
I know you’re busy so ALPHAZ really appreciate the reaction. They definitely make us Gen Xers, or boomers, feel old. But it’s cool that they’re paying their respects to such awesome artists who clearly had a huge influence on their respective genres.
I just love that, at their age, some of their inspirations and favorite artists are from an earlier era than what they would've come up with. When I started really getting into music as a teen, I used to freak my mom out because I would listen to stuff back from the 1950's to 1980's, while other kids were listening to 2000's releases, so I definitely feel a kind of connection with that aspect
You can thank me for the Chisa Rock with You, as I've been asking for it ever since she did a few lines in the song association game. They totally read all of my comments requesting it. So it was all me! You're welcome!😄👍🤪 Locations were based by song. Hinata - Korea Juria - Japan Chisa - U.S. (NY) ALL 3 - U.S. ( NY)
I would check out Hikaru Utada if you haven't done so already. She's a J-pop legend. Her debut album, 1999's "First Love" is the Thriller of Japan in terms of being the best selling album in Japan of all time. The song that Juria covered a bit("Never Let Go") is from that album.
It looks like they shot the first one in Korea (korean song) second one, japan (japanese song) and of course, MJ’s classic shot here in the US. I believe no scrubs was here too, somewhere in NY
XG is so good and damm they needa drop full cover of hinata bad and no scrub hinata,juria and chisa so i can bump it cause they cant be teasing us with these lil chores 😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥 even tho hinata didnt had no shine from there first debut song she has always been my bias and glad she shining now
I’m sure their original will be longer. Just that these are just covers. Just to highlight what they can do and probably for licensing issues too. I’m just glad this came out after the xyphers
