Generally in K-Pop, hip-hop has been a common genre for both boy and girl groups to attempt for a comeback. In doing so, the aesthetic relies on a different take than the usual “girl crush” concept to shut down haters. But overall, the video inspired a fitting vintage, rustic vibe to accommodate their chosen concept. Maybe if even that segment could merge with the rest of the MV’s aesthetic to not seem out of place. But once the girls were placed inside, the 90’s Western concept that took majority of the MV to craft vanished into a mere performance scene. On one hand, diversity is definitely welcomed, and the idea of having a contrast between light and dark, day and night was effective. While one comeback featured black scorpions, an addictive whistling instrumental and a slightly Arabian theme, another was grounded in Latin roots to follow aboard the previous Spanish trend running in the industry.Īlthough, the shift from rustic outdoors to indoor live club was admittedly a bit misplaced. In addition to past release “Senorita,” both “Latata” and “Hann” have stood out from one another for their differences in genre, musicality, and even aesthetic. Once again, (G)I-dle tackled a distinct concept that adds to their unique palette. Nonetheless, “Uh-Oh” marks their fourth comeback since debut. While it was refreshing to see the members embrace such a distinct concept, the execution of it was admittedly slightly lost towards the end with setting. Amidst an era that has groups mostly rely on familiar elements of pop, EDM, and electro, (G)I-dle came forth to re-use a forgotten tune.

Let me know what you think of (G)I-DLE’s latest single down in the comment section below.Just four months after their “Senorita” comeback, rookie girl group (G)I-dle switched things up by returning with a new digital hip-hop single “Uh-Oh.” Based on a 90’s hip-hop concept, the MV is both nostalgic and innovative in its timing and ideas. The single is available worldwide on streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music as well as for purchase on iTunes/Google Play. Overall, HANN is quite different from other girl group’s releases with its mature and unique sound as well as a great comeback release for (G)I-DLE themselves.

They come off as strong-minded and independent. The members throughout the song continue to say that they’ll get over them, that they’ll forget, erase them and that there’s no going back. There seems to be a sense of revenge because of what a lover did to them. What I love the most about this track is the lyrics. That, along with the “Woo Woo” verse, creates a very catchy tune.

The whistle from the HANN teasers is also present throughout the whole track and serves as the melody in the chorus. After listening to that specific part several times, I realize that the beat resembles the ballroom dance Tango. The only interesting verse in HANN is the “Do You Remember” line since the flow slightly clashes with the instrumentals. On to the track itself, HANN as a whole is very cohesive, and there are no parts that are out of place or weird. Now for the choreography, I feel like it’s more complex than LATATA, not in the sense that it’s hard but that it has more intricate moves and formations. The Bohemian look was used a lot throughout the music video, such as their outfits as well as some of the backdrops. went all out after the success of LATATA). It’s not that LATATA wasn’t visually stunning, it’s just the set and props used were very basic compared to HANN (I imagine Cube Ent.
LATATA G IDLE SWITCH UPGRADE
Starting with the music video, the visuals are a huge upgrade from LATATA. Without further ado, let’s get into this review. HANN was able to match LATATA’s peak and more on the charts, so it’s safe to say (G)I-DLE is here to stay. HANN is the first digital single released by (G)I-DLE, 3 months after their debut title track LATATA and mini album I AM. (G)I-DLE is back and better than ever with their new release ‘ HANN‘. NOT recommended for: Who are looking for (G)I-DLE to switch things up Recommended for: Who liked LATATA but also like songs with a deeper tone
