  • I watched the music video and it was really really trendy and the members’ styling felt like street models. It’s likely that they will become the next small company miracle
  • The music video and style are really cool. It’s the trendiest thing I’ve come across lately.
  • Wah, will FIFTY FIFTY’s level of virality happen again, I hope so
  • This group’s songs are good, but their stages are next-level as well
