That ''i love Blackpink i mean Babymonster" bro i'm dead 💀🤣

YG: REDUCE REUSE RECYCLE ♻️😂😂😂😂😂

We should thank Jordan for always putting DANCE THERAPY in every video😂❤ Edit: Mom I'm famous😂

Asa's rap instantly made me bias her. Her delivery of the lines so good

I really think this debut was over hyped by YG. I'm not hating on Baby Monster, I just don't like the song. Empty Chorus, not a really versatile melody, verses uncreative, flow was alright. The group has incredible vocal and dance talent but it really couldn't shine. If you look at their pre-debut stuff, you realize how much more they actually are able to do. I also believe Baby Monster is never going to "dethrone" Blackpink, like all the fans are saying, but we'll see. Again I'm not hating nor trying to compare the two girl groups. this is my personal opinion. But I do agree that the editing of this Music Video was amazing and the girls are so pretty!

It's very interesting how YG is still going for the yg girlgroup mv formula but with 7 members (or 6) instead of 4. Watching Batter Up music video made me realize how much complicated it was. With the budget for the individual scenes, but also in the way they want to show the choreography during other parts than the key parts. A girlgroup of 4 members allows so much more "individuality" but a group like BabyMonster will want to show their group dynamic and formations much more. It's really not the same, it should be obvious though but I like to notice it that way.

Have to agree Asa’s rap iconic Although it wasn’t well as we expected to most people’s standards it’s a good debut and I’m sure they can improve and have more incredible MVS Also I did not notice that foreshadowing of snow and nails 😂❤

I wasn’t blown away by this debut BUT it’s a good start, the girls are extremely talented that much is obvious I just hope they are given better songs in the future that better showcase their talent and really make an impact. They are called BABYMONSTER, give them music to live up to their name and be monsters and the new revolution in the industry, YG don’t fail them.

I love how everyone is appreciating Asa's rap. ❤

I just hope for the best in their future because they all have that great potential ( vocal,rap,dance and even visual)

I'm stuck between being a bit disappointed with this debut, and also being happy with it. I'm a bit disappointed that they feel too close to Black Pink. When a new group debuts, I really want to hear a new sound. I want them to have a sound, where in the future, I'll be able to listen to their new songs, and immediately think "Yeah, this is their sound". But if they continue like this, all I'm going to think is that this is the Black Pink sound. On the other hand, I have been starved for Black Pink music, so I'm also a little happy that I get this. Because the song is good, and it is catchy. So it really scratches the itch that Black Pink is not really fulfilling for me. As a consumer, I'm happy to get new music that I like. But I feel a little sad for BABYMONSTER, since they will be compared to Black Pink so much, because of the heavy similarities. I hope they can develop more of a unique sound in the future, so they can stick out more. Because they seem talented enough for it. Unfortunately the decision is probably all up to YGE to make it happen. And I have a sneaky suspicion that YGE will go for the safe option of releasing music they know will be a hit, in the form of Black Pink style music. But hopefully I'm wrong

I’m obsessed! Can’t wait for more baby monster content

Weirdly, for me they have Treasure vibe rather than Blackpink. AND NO THIS IS NOT A HATE. It’s literally what I felt from hearing it

When I heard this song, I thought it might have been an unreleased song from early BP. One potential name for BP was Baby Monster, or so I heard. As far as Chiquita's "crown," it's a nod to BP lisa, since Lisa is Chiquita's roll model, and they're both Thai (which is what Lisa was representing with her crown).

YG: We’re gonna delay BM’s debut to make sure the quality of music is good. Also YG: let’s give BM the YG starter pack kit for their debut. 😂😂 this debut was overhyped

Love Black Pink and Baby Monster has such amazing artists. Was surprised by Batter Up. Catchy though and love the rap sections. It's really interesting how there is a divergence between the production coming out of large Entertainment groups like YG, versus some of the more innovative or edgy production coming out of XG, or even some of the smaller bootstrap type entertainment groups that let their artists get involved with producing music, composing, and influencing artistic vision and directing -- like with One Pact who just debuted this week. The budgets are smaller, the resources are limited, but curious what you think about about their Must Be Nice '좋겠다' music video.

I feel like every YG title track song is meant for the general public, not for a specific demographic, or, to say, those who are already kpop fans. Crazy beats, repetitive choruses, flashy sets, and rave party outrous are what define YG. After a couple years of being a kpop fan, I can say this tactic really works a lot in capturing new markets, and I see nothing wrong with that. Staying true to their own identity and sound is what makes them unique in this industry. Well, listening to K-pop music is a personal choice, what matters most is that we take care of ourselves by finding and listening to music that brings joy to us.

I am excited to see what these talented girls have to offer in the future!

At 3:51, that scene looked extremely similar to Jennie's part in how you like that MV. Watching again the part at 11:24 looked extremely similar to Jisoo's part in how you like that. The song is good and the cinemaphotography is great, but I think the debut lacks originality and creativity. The rappers showed some promise, but I think we need to hear more from the vocalists of the group for the next comeback. It's only a single album, so maybe for the next they'll bring something different to the table. In other words, show why they're not mini blackpink, but they are baby monster and they are their own group and have their own identity.

I liked this debut, and I like to think that this kind of format and theme is just paying homage to BP at some point (considering that they debut after BP; talking abt YGs GGs), but I also hope they slowly transition as an independent group without the association to other YG artists as much as they do now.

Boombayah, Playing with fire, Forever Young and As If It Your Last were meant to be 2NE1 songs. YG kept it your years and then reuse the demo. YG always do that! And Babymonster song is giving YG groups vibe (like Treasure, 2NE1, Blackpink, Big Bang, Winner, iKON...)! Btw, I love the song! It just YG need to come up with more genre songs and new concepts!

i feel bad for babymonster, being all hyped up by YG, there’s just so much pressure on them to live up to the expectations

I really like this song, it is so YG coded with 2nd gen element. I love it soooo much ❤

I’ve waited for your reaction to this. Thanks so much!

9:47 INDEED it is ASA even write and composed it herself 🔥

That pose on the thumbnail - Minnie from (G)i-dle did it first in 'Lion' performance during her high note and it became one of the most iconic moments in kpop. Idk the origin of it or who else did it (won't count gidle members ofc) but only these 3 (Minnie Lisa Chiquita) in the span of 5 years became so memorable doing that pose. And they're all Thai having good relationship with each others. More like Thai-line thing lol.

the editing really enhances the video. I learn so much from you Jordan. thanks, Bob

Congratulations on the debut of Babymonster. Can't wait for their comeback next two year 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣. That how YG treats their artist 😂

Thank you for all of your input jordan! Really educating.

I always appreciate music videos more when you educate us on why they are so well done and satisfying! The pop-in is really so extremely satisfying!

I am so glad you made this video cause so many people are arguing it's completely different

4:42 I think they had her off-center bc it's a surprisingly long static shot compared to the rest of the mv So as a viewer you expect the scene to either change or the camera to pan over them but when neither happens you look off-center to the only object (or member in this case) that's in the foreground, which is when she gives this very charismatic sassy expression as if saying 'oh no, I'm not finished yet' and does rest of the dance move Like you always say, subverting expectations gives contrast, contrast gives focus

Just as he said YG did copy paste, but am I anger or pissed ? NO , i love the song.

I am addicted to this song، this song was really amazing and special for me

I love how you can tell not only in the song but also in the Mv which BP member would have what parts. It’s a catchy song but Babymonster is was to skilled and talented for this😭 I wanna see these girls’ talents shine!

i love your reaction the editing is so funny 😂❤️

I love the song overall. Maybe cause i'm not expect so much from them. The song overall, without any comparison just a good or bad choices, the song was good imo. Cause for me, i focus on the beat and the lyrics. If the beat is good, the story behind it goo, if it was my vibe, it's good.

I looooove your shot analysis so much. Really inspiring.

The only reaction video, I’ve been waiting to have a dip. 🔥🔥🔥

I only felt BP vibe during ASA's part... well the colors... and Chiquita's part in first verse ( the snow scene was mixture of "How u like that" and "Pink venom" mvs second chorus) but throughout the whole MV I was thinking "damn, it sounds and looks like so much BigBang, 2ne1 and IKON". The opening isn't just used in BP mvs, it's a classic YG entrance, all groups under YG has at least one MV opening like this. Ruka's rap part in MV was a callback to Bigbang "Bang Bang Bang" era. Chiquita's part in 2nd verse was a callback to 2ne1 "I am the best MV". The ending editing where everything goes black slowly before the song changes - that's the same editing from BigBang "Bang Bang Bang" when the song changes at the end. It's a standard YG song, more like a YG anthem rather than BabyMonster's debut song. That's why people weren't happy because it's not something new or exciting. It would've had better effect on people if we didn't know who they are and weren't introduced to them. It would be like "Oh new YG group, oh look at them, who they are, wow so much liek YG groups". But as we know them already, same old YG song is not exciting. Even tho I like the girls, some of them didn't fit the theme like Pharita's first part, it was a forced attutude scene, I was kinda cringed. Same goes Chiquita's snow scene. I was like "Nope, thanks". They are teens, let them be teens. Not forced faked-fierce grown up wanna-be's. They have better potential.

that "OGH, OK" 00:01

Jordan’s comments and sound effects are gold. Having a breakdown of how MV’s are produced adds to the value of the production. It’s like BP had kids and they’re following in their parents dance steps. :)

" the editor chooses this clip, jordan is now happy" made me laughing rolling on the ground

Love your reactions as always! I've been waiting for your reaction on Baemons like everyday. LOL

am I the only one who loved this debut and asa and ruka’s part is the best too

I think YG didn't over hyped Baby Monster. It was us who over hyped YG production in general.

I just LOVE your reactions!! haha. God bless you man

thank you jordan for react we love youuu 😍😍

For me it was really hyped up by YG. Plus everything looks so nostalgic

The mv looks kinda retro and old-school, but as if it wasn't done intentionally. If someone had told me that it was filmed and edited in 2015/2016, I would have totally believed it.

Best reaction so far with a Useful Lecture !

why i love so mucy when u talk about the little details?? i could sit here and watch your videos the hole day

as a fellow nerd that loves kpop, your videos make my day lol

They won't, because they can't, Blackpink's brand is owned by YG ,So yeah ,no. Also this has always been YG's formula,,A lot of BP scenes are taken from 2ne1 as well.

I rrally lovr your reaction vids...the details are amazing, you see things we dont see..

thanks for doing this one , i really was waiting for it

Theory; 0:58 - here it looks like they are running away from the police, because of the vibrant lights and the background sound 1:59 -The group's name is Babymonster, in this scene the egg could symbolize that they were born and came to dominate. The egg is cracked because they were born 2:06 - For society, in this case they are monsters that came to dominate, and are dangerous and as we can see in this scene there is a space that humans created to trap them, but with their power they are able to get out of there and be free. 3:52 - In this scene she may be representing an ice monster, being a mythical legend 9:36 - if you notice some things are flying(levitation) showing that they also have powers 9:37 - In this scene I thought of them in a city full of prejudiced people who don't understand what they are being mean to them, so they will dominate the city and in the end the world if necessary 9:39 & 2:39 Can these two scenes possibly show claws? 11:32 & 11:35 They have a lot to say and will surprise everyone, as they will rule society from now on. And people made a mistake in doubting their power thinking they can just saying them "shut up" 13:01 - they will show who they truly are and who is in charge what do you think?

finally i was waiting for it

I appreciate your channel! Thank you for existing!!!!!

Finally! Been waiting for this.❤

YESSS!!! The fact that Jordan did a video for BAYMON's debut MV totally made my day! I was worried he wouldn't do a video for "Batter Up" when it's just one of the countless K-pop MV's out there. Always appreciate Jordan's review/reaction vids, makes me notice the details and appreciate K-pop editors and just editors in general more, they are so under-appreciated IMHO: "Batter Up" does draw a lot of references from previous YG MV's (esp BP's), I do wish BAYMON the best, they have amazing potential, just hope YG can get things sorted out...also really wish Ahyeon could've debuted with them T-T

Love your reaction to blackpink… Oh its Babymonster! I love them both! I love this debut. Because of your explanation, got to appreciate more the hard-work of Baby monster. Very happy for them!

Finally, I waited for this

I ended up here by chance, and I loved your video! perfect and fun analysis, we viewers often don't pay attention to certain details... (I agree that that rap part is fantastic, and thinking that Asa is Japanese is crazy!)

Heeey Babymonster girls did great🥺I actually loved the song, YG's songs mostly hace the same vibe, structure. It's not bad, it's just their thing. I kinda expected sth like this

People are recycling insults at this point. B.P was a 2ne1 2.0 or "copied their style". I hated that then and I hate it now. Its a YG sound until the groups take part in producing.🤷🏽‍♀️

Dude you're the best! You gave us a new insight to the music video. We are now seeing things we've never seen before and its mind blowing!!

thanks for the walk through of all the visual detail meanings in such a funny way, and the easter egg Dance Therapy is not long enough 😂

Blackpink ? But the whole thing has so many 2NE1 references.. if you're familiar with 2NE1 videography you know that.

Asa slayed her part.

I was waiting for this video a lot. I really like your videos.

Noooooo you had me dead in the end of the videooo brooo TT. Not with the babymonster sound effect huhu

Jordan, I laughed my ass out while watching this. Im a blink, and supporting Babymonster too. But yes, thanks for being honest and saying it is just a copy paste but fire. I love how technical you are doing with your reviews and somehow comparing them. I just basically love how you do your thingggg. 🎉

HII JORDAN AM BIG FAN I LOVE UR VIDS

UGH! PLEASE.... THAT ENDING DANCE THERAPHY.. I LOVE IT LOL!!! CAN U DO IT A LIL BIT LONGER PLEASE 😂❤

Great reaction I'm obsessed with this song

They are identical-sounding songs. Even Lisa would be holding onto her wig cap at this point.

Whenever i watch ur videos my mind literally opens up and i see the MV in a COMPLETE different way

13:15 it’s giving 2NE1 ‘I AM THE BEST’

Everytime i watch your videos i laugh so hard. I love your hummor🤣❤

The fact that Jordan kept mixing up BLACKPINK and BABYMOMSTER is proof that YG made the concepts waay too similar (no hate to baby monster or Jordan!)

THEIR SONG WAS AMAZING FOR ME I LOVE IT

This is so true noone is going to copy my four queens

love you Jordan Orme! more reaction video pls to Baby monster

Congratulations BABYMONSTER on your record breaking debut! ❤🔥

I freaking loved the song Glad I didn't listen to the online talks abt it and checked it out myself ❤

Your video always make my day better Thxsm ❤

YEEEEEEEEEEEES I'm soooo freaking happy that someone else was able to notice the foreshadowing of the scene with the snow!!! I thought I was the only one! I've watched so many reactions and so far I haven't seen others noticing it. I've been hoping for someone else to notice it. Jordan I'm so glad that someone was you. xD When I saw it for and this video for the first time it's one of the few times that I stopped the video to just take in what had happened. The second time was with Asa's rap part, in which I was happy that you also stopped there to just take in her rapping as well. xD She really does have that effect. I'm really hoping they don't cast her aside and that they will show case her talent with future music to come from them. Also Haram's singing as well. The other girls may get more attention because of how talented they are for being able to singing, dance, and rap, but when it comes to singing, I don't think any of the other members can compare to Haram. She just has that crazy rift changing at such a young age that is almost unheard of and I really hope they show it off at some point, because right now she's not being recognized as much as she should be getting recognized for her voice.

People have encapsulated their mind to believe Baemon is BP copycat and we can see it clearly here on how the crown thing is used by ITZY in every MV since their debut but it reminds him to Lisa. 😂

Favorite line - Budget is Budgeting 😅😅😂

jordan favorite youtuber❤

istg watchibg batter up it was like watching baby blankpinks

Jordan, before Blackpink there was 2NEI. Some moves of Blackpink are from 2NE1. But still BP made it big. 2NE1 was original badass korean girl group. During their time, they were #1 in their genre. Am just hoping that the next song that will be released by BM will give them their own identity.

I think it is not necessary to compare them with blackpink, it is just YG's style, and it is not babyMonster's fault, it is the fault of the company or the producer of the song

This was so good

I usually don't click "like" to the video I watch, but I gotta do it for you😂😂😂 you spoke my mind, bro. and the ending, ... i can't 😂😂😂 i just can't

Not Blackpink only but mostly YG group doin same concept. I think that's YG concept for girl group or boy group

YG wouldn't be known if it were not because of their signature sound of Trap, Hip Hop, EDM, and MV which has a party sound at the end. YG Stans and those who knew music well appreciate it. BM's music might be similar to BP but it's obvious that they focus more on Hip Hop and showcases their vocals. It's so sad that BM gets a lot of bashing and hate and even compares them to other Gen-Girl groups. I am a blink, a blackjack, and even love other girl groups. We must be respectful and just be appreciative that YG's Boy Groups and Girl groups like 2NE1, Blackpink, and now Baby Monsters, create and balance the genre of music that we can listen to and relate to. We respect opinions are opinions, but sometimes it results to hate. Let's be kind.

litterally my ad of your video was the song😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Saw this video now, wanted the hat but it’s sold out! 😂😂😂 Great job Jordan
