I'm glad they didn't go as cutesy as I was dreading although we're still not fully in R&B territory, i'm happy.

The fact they actually delivered SO much vocally and layer wise and kept things very fresh, it's a breath of fresh air and made the journey interesting and it'll also help the songs to age better with time, which I much prefer.

Hearing more vocal moments from Yuha, Yeon, Stella and of course Carmen is ALWAYS a win too!!

ENJOY!

WOW this made me love heart emoji EVEN MOREEE ITS TEEWWW GOOD. Also, i thought baby steps grew on me but i fear shes falling down again… idkkkk it’s just throwing so much at me but nothing i want. BUT LEMON TANG?? HITTTTTT

unfortunately this does not top the focus mini or rude! (very high bar) for me, but I can appreciate this bright fresh summer sound of kpop we've been missing. no more new jeans copies and easy listening tracks please!!!! my favorite is definitely heart emoji and there are sections of lemon tang I like, def a grower for sure. my only complaint is the mixing, the vocals seem too forward and the intricacies of the instrumental get lost compared to their previous tracks. lots of people are making red velvet comparisons but I'd push more towards nct wish a bit?? still so excited for their next project, hoping for more rnb since we know they have the vocals!!

oh and baby steps reminds me of the intro of p1harmony L.O.Y.L, I agree with your sentiment about it sounding like a Japanese track, p1h winning between these two for me

IOhiuhdfiush baby steps is sooo jarring man

Yesss definitely nct wish vibes and my issue with the vocals is how squeeky the sound. The recording behind is going to make them sound waay better but yeah i get it.

Yuha sang that last note in Lemon Tang with all of her chest

I think because Red Velvet are my ults, and I love anime, I really liked Baby Steps 🤭…it’s giving me heavy Day 1 vibes. And when you mentioned it sounding like a Japanese song I’m like YES because I was definitely getting anime intro vibes as well lol. Lemon Tang tho?! Wow, those girls are hitmakers, I was missing the colorful and light vibes of kpop so they absolutely delivered

Koko3op

Yesss very similar to Day 1!

Aside from the title track, the album feels like a tripleS release or billlie if they fully leaned into their cute side (not a bad thing at all) and suits them so well !! They kinda give me aespa in a sense where the SM-ness is very lowkey and I love that cause they're able to showcase different sides as a group and stabilize as a brand, yet still have something that can tie them back to the company as a great foundation (with vocals and being able to have the resources to fully go all out with a concept). Even if there isn't an r&b track that I'd kill for, I lenjoy this comeback and can't wait to see what else they have in store!
