I noticed this feature on XG from The Honey Pop. The quote below is from the article and their observations truly embody what I felt when I first came across this Japanese group: (Emphasis mine)
The first HOWL, as we mentioned, is XG’s first world tour, and honestly, it doesn’t even seem like it, from start to finish they really kicked it out of the park. They seemed like a well-seasoned group, not a two-year group going a world on tour for the first time. Their talent is astronomical, out of this world, both as a group and as individuals. They also got to show off in their group stages, unit stages, and solo stages. If y’all saw the dance breaks we saw right from the beginning, you would’ve been blown away. They were so good! After watching their solo stages, you would be confused about who is a part of the vocal unit because, man, XG has such amazing, strong, and special voices. Every time we got a solo stage, we thought, wow, “They’re like really good,” and then that continued with each solo we got. And even when they showed off their singing again with no backtrack, it was even more proof that their vocals are just so stable.
