Today's talk : Yang Hyun Suk for Rania

Say whut? Yang Hyun Suk broke the ice. He stepped out of YG and took a role as producer to produce Rania's comeback digital single, Style . This ought a great anticipation if it was revealed earlier but I guess he didn't want the peer pressure as well so most of us only found out about this after Rania released their comeback single. He did a great job with YG Entertainment but I doubted if it would give the same outcome with Rania although I never once doubted his midas touch.

Clearly, my doubt is on the spot. In terms of the song, it's a song made by a YG producer in collaboration with Epik High's Tablo. I am personally a fan of Tablo's work especially Fever's End but after listening to this song, I had to stop and think for a sec how I feel about this. I'm liking it, but it has still not fully gotten to me yet. This song is nothing like Rania's previous songs where they were more badass. Yes they have nothing lack in the confidence department in Style too but it just does not feel right YET. Maybe because it's all too colorful suddenly? On a random note, can you see the YG style in the MV already? 

Overall, this is not a comeback that can put Rania on top eventhough YG is somewhere up there, or way too far up there if I may emphasize.

This comeback is more of a phase where Rania is still searching for their own distinctive style but they're nearing it.

Yoon D : I fully agree that Rania's comeback is more of a phase and they need more time to find their path in this ruthless industry. In a way, they're like teenagers; having identity crisis. So in the meantime, they are trying everything until they grasp a more comfortable with their own skin.

On another note, I think the song sounds too much like 2NE1. Even the chorus sounds like CL was singing it. It is very good though.

Might I add that it's refreshing to hear a different take on the line '머리부터 발끝까지' (Moributeo balkkeutkaji).
