Musicians react & analyze ♡ XIKERS - BREATHE

WE COULD NOT BREATHE AT ALL :0 Xikers is BACK with one of the STRONGEST tracks we've heard from them! This one was particularly interesting because they slightly dialed back on the usual Xikers feel and instead accented a more conventional feel to create a balanced sound that more people can enjoy. That's not to say that this one didn't have any Xikers color to it, but it was for sure more different than their usual style! Either way, the result was astonishing, so that's all that matters. As usual, we talk about the lyrics, the genre, the rap, and the members, so buckle up, and let's get right to it!

Xikers rapline crazy.. I recently learned in the karaoke video published on hello82 that it is very good at not only rapline but also vocalline. You should definitely watch that video, it's very good.

Can't believe they're hollering at me to breathe during allergy season. I'm always down for more xikers though. I've been listening to a lot of...idk, prettier (?) music lately and this little comeback of theirs snapped me back into hard mode. The ep is for sure worth checking out.

I saw that this morning - I watched it on a whim and I was totally charmed. I also forgot they could sing, because it feels like they're always hollering. Especially Hyunwoo - he's got such a "just a guy" aura and then he opens his mouth and lets loose the pipes. I just sat there and blinked for a solid few seconds, and then played it again.

Yes! It's all 10 members! Junghoon is back and they focused the camera on his face quite a bit. Like when he was swinging on the wrecking ball. My favourite part was Sumin's rap. He nailed it and that style really suits him. You guys will LOVE 'You Hide We Seek' on the Spur album.

cemretiny

exactly.I became addicted to video.

Marnz

Yeah! Xikers!!!

Kaya

First of all I didn't breathe once, only exhaled at the end!!!! SUCH A GREAT COMEBACK! THE WHOLE ALBUM IS FANTASTIC! Sumin's rap was unexpected....perfect!

VeroniMacaroni

YESSS!!! Thank you! Love love the breakdown as usual! I will always always appreciate you guys actually giving us a reaction, opinions, breakdowns, and language translation (when needed for context!) rather than just watching the mv and the video there! I hope you guys will be reacting to their bsides in the albums as well!!! 🥺🙏 (just got to 12:00 min and that completely explains the lyrics to their first track of the album!!!! THANK YOUUU!!)

VeroniMacaroni

Ok not completely explains “You Hide We Seek” but I just didn’t think the lyrics of the song would revolve around fish!!! And was wondering why they’re talking about fishes!!! lol!

Vania Machado

Yaaah xikers!!! They did so good in this ot10 comeback!!! And btw, since you miss kq so much you need to check mingi "autoban". You will love it !!!

jayme

Love this comeback! You Hide We Seek (the first b-side) is my favorite from the album, though Breathe is a veeery close second. Love the energy these guys bring! The rapline is KILLING it!

Karigan

Let’s just say that at this point more than half my cardio playlist is just xikers 😆 I like this album even if it’s not my favorite from them. For now Highway is my favorite track :)

Sonali

YAY I'm so happy y'all loved breathe as much as meee!!! This comeback is even more special because junghoon is finally back after his nearly 2-year hiatus, idk if it's in my head bc of how much I missed him or whatever but their energy just feels different and more special when it's all 10 of them. BEGGING for y'all to react to the performance video or a live performance (they've been on a few music shows already I think 3 or 4) and the dance practice!!! like their big brothers, you really have to see them performing live to get the entire experience - their choreos and energy go CRAZY I know y'all would love getting to know the xikers members beyond the music too if you HAPPEN to have time for some beyond contents I highly recommend tricky house (like wanteez) for getting to know their personalities and my personal favorite content the dance practice behinds where they show the process of the members learning the choreo

So glad you guys reacted to Breathe!! I was ready to recommend in case you missed it lol. Breathe is definitely my favorite title track from Xikers. Like Han-C said, it's a great driving song, but be careful of the speed limits 😂 Yes, please please please check out the rest of the album. It's pretty short, unfortunately, but it's a great listen! It's not my favorite album of Xikers, that's still Watch Out for me. But I really love 'You Hide We Seek', 'Breathe', and 'Rock Your Body'. My favorite is YHWS 😊

Coco Nies

Xikers are BACK! Really love this comeback! My favourite track is You hide we seek closely followed by Breathe (definitely forgot to breathe during the first listen) and Rollercoaster. Sumin's rap in this was so cool!
