My Opinions on TXT
This is literally irrelevant to everyone but I wanted to get it out there anyways, like just write down my feelings. 
Firstly, I like TXT a lot, but there are things I don’t like about them. I understand they’re rookies so I’m looking forward to future comebacks and progression, but for now, I have mixed feelings on them.
Positives:
Their music fucking slaps. Honestly, I like the auto tune sound in every song, it’s pretty uncommon. Even if Crown was generic, nothing else in their discography is really generic tbh. It seems like they already have their own trademark sound established.
Even their more chill songs are so good? Like I usually gravitate towards more dance-ish songs, but my personal faves are 20cm, Nap of a Star, and Our Summer.
They have really intense choreographies, Jesus Christ. While I sometimes think they overdo it, I love that a lot. It makes each performance really dynamic, and they’re definitely strong in terms of dance. Probably one of the top dance rookies.
The boys are really likable! They seem really sweet and humble, and they’re pretty funny on their own. I like that they’re close in age, so their chemistry comes a bit more naturally, and they all seem really in tune with the general concept of youth.
Very talented group in terms of vocals. I’ve watched their MR removed videos, and damn, they’re really good. I like this emphasis on vocals; it’s not really common amongst rookies, who prefer to focus on raps and choreographies.
Actually, their concept in total is not common in rookie groups. The only reason people call them generic is because of their debut song, but they’ve proved by now, in my opinion, that they have a unique style.
Negatives:
I like the auto tune, but it’s also preventing me from distinguishing their voices. Like after hearing every song more than once, I still can’t make out who’s who. Only Yeonjun because his voice is super distinct.
I know the point of the group is that they’re all triple threats who can each sing, rap, and dance well...but honestly, I don’t know if that’s a good idea. Typically in groups, it’s best to have members who excel in a particular area to gain attention. Like they have one incredible dancer, vocalist, rapper, etc. Ok this isn’t actually a negative but something I noticed.
They are heavily carried by their company, like BigHit really keeps them on a tight leash. Most of the wow factor in their performances comes from creative elements rather than the boys’ stage presence. I’m absolutely not diminishing their hard work at all, I know the boys are super talented and skilled. But they should have more opportunities to show it off and have stage charisma rather than be carried by their company and the creative team.
Oh Jesus, time to mention BTS...they’re definitely not similar to BTS, in terms of music and concept, lets get that straight. But I don’t think they will ever not be associated with BTS. At least in every one of the boys’ interviews or reality show, they mention BTS...I totally get that they love BTS, and respect them so much...but like maybe not link the group to BTS? Like if they want to stand out on their own.
This is NOT a “rookie thing” like everyone says it is. But TXT seems like they’re always “on” and bright and peppy. They often give of this vibe of looking and appearing perfect, to fit this standard of idol appearance that I guess their company decided on?? I have no idea. But I never get the sense that they’re totally relaxed. It’s weird; it’s like they’re a mix of mature and youthful. Tbh maybe it’s a recent rookie thing, bc I see the same thing with ITZY, except maybe worse.
Neutral:
Why is Beomgyu always styled like Taehyung? I mean, he looks good regardless but... I see the Daegu boys joke all the time, and it’s pretty accurate.
It’s pretty rare for me to see a boy group where the hyung line is more popular than the Maknae Line. And yet, the hyung Line is still always in the bottom for line distribution. Maybe it’s a bighit thing? You can’t seriously tell me that Taehyun and Huening Kai are way stronger vocalists than the others. Bruh, Yeonjun was first in singing as a trainee.
I prefer Beomgyu’s dancing over Yeonjun’s. He’s such a natural performer, and his movements are amazing. It’s crazy to think that he only started dancing as a trainee. Yeonjun has more of a cool, laid-back, swag style of dance, similar to Ryujin.
What’s funny is that when I first looked at the group (like 5 months into their debut bc I just wasn’t interested), Taehyun was the only one who caught my attention because I thought he was really handsome. Now my bias is Beomgyu (if you haven’t noticed already lol) and I don’t really have a bias wrecker.
