1. [+10,006, -152] Seems YG listened to fan feedback on their 7th album. They don't listen to anything else but at least they listen to musical feedback.

2. [+9,022, -318] Honestly, they would've 100% failed if they went with a YG style. I hope they let Epik High work independently..!!

3. [+8,848, -269] The album's just amazing.. especially Born Hater, it's daebak..

4. [+6,395, -196] This album is one of their best after their 4th and 5th

5. [+933, -37] It's because they're under YG that they were able to comfortably work on their album for years while going on shows like Superman and building a 'Haru appa' image with the public. If they were under a smaller company, they'd be forced to release and sell music to make money which obviously means less quality and less results. It's one of the pros of being in a big company... they're able to raise the quality of their music.

6. [+789, -45] YG's the winner in the end... While other companies are investing in choreographies and plastic surgery, YG's been investing nonstop in composition skills. If you read interviews of YG rookies, 90% of them are talking about how hard it is to make songs and write lyrics. Other idol interviews 90% consist of dancing or their looks.

7. [+720, -46] It's kind of amazing how Yang Hyun Suk is able to catch how his individual artists work best and help them out in the way they need

8. [+725, -76] It's good that YG doesn't touch on his artists' music but it's also a problem that he doesn't touch on them doing drugs
