Brave Girls ~ Deepened
After three long years, K-Pop group Brave Girlshave come back to the
scene with something fresh and full of changes! Their style was always cool but
the girls flipped the tables and have clearly been watching the trends over the
years because they've returned as if they'd never left to begin with! ! "Deepened" is a fun, slow-tempo,
hip-hop track fused with a popular, fast-paced Miami beat!
It is no shock that "Deepened" is raking in the
attention of fans for many reasons! First off, the whole member change was
quite the surprise as new members Minyoung, Youjung, Eunji, Yuna, and Hayoon took the places of
former members Eunyoung, Seo Ah, andYejin.
The
song starts off with a boss @$$ instrumental that no one was expecting! The
beat carries a real slick sound as it drops into an alluringly slow tempo,
accompanied by elongated piano notes and Brave Girls' words echoing alongside
the hyped beat. The light taps of the drum, sudden flash of the snares, and odd
twang of the guitar strumming make this song an easy track to get addicted to
and even get down to on the dance floor! The instrumental is something I can
easily see Western artists like Nicki Minaj, Beyoncé or
even Drake incorporating into their
sound, which shows Brave Sound knows how to craft a
great instrumental dance track!
The MV is very
entertaining to watch since their dance moves go beyond the generic routines!
The deep, slow-motioned drop of their bodies in the opening fills viewers with
anticipation as they wonder what is to come next. What is really likable is the
fact that the sex appeal doesn't feel forced but more natural as they effortlessly
transition into the sequence of dance moves with expertise! The dancing is
admittedly a bit too upbeat and fast-paced for this song at times. Some dances
can get away with being paired alongside slow instrumentals but
"Deepened" demands something just a tad bit more mid-paced and gentle
for certain parts.
Some may think it is a
dance better suited for videos like 4Minute's "Crazy" but
I guarantee if you mute the audio and play Janet Jackson's
"When We Oooo," you wouldn't be disappointed. The only thing
I have against this MV is the endless clasping into nothingness. What are you
grabbing ladies? Hopefully a spot on the Top 10!
The song relays a nice
message without being too cliche as the lyrics are easily relatable for
anyone's "thirst for love." The girls know their
love has become different as they echo"You've really changed too
much" and "I deserve better," showing
their agonizing longing of wanting to be loved the right way again and "going
back to the beginning." The rap also has a sick flow to it and carries
along the rising pace of the song in that intense moment. The addictive chorus
and hypnotizing rap itself are enough to ease people into enjoying the song
but, paired with their strong choreo, "Deepened" offers something
much more rewarding,
Although the song
doesn't necessarily have a 100% winning element to it, Brave Girls' return to
K-Pop is definitely strong in comparison to other group's comebacks lately.
"Deepened" may be strong enough to score them high on the charts as
fused hip-hop tracks are quite the rage lately! Let's wish Brave Girls
the best with their new track and expect more from them in the future, too!
