WAgg have been around since 2018. Officially the trainee group of WACK , whose past-members have gone on to be distributed throughout the company’s more established groups such as GANG PARADE ‘s sub-units PARADISES and GO TO THE BEDS and even the new, but already popular MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN.
It wouldn’t be until 12th of June, 2020 that WAgg would release their debut track and music video WAggの素晴らしき世界 (WAgg’s Wonderful World).
WAgg currently consists of members Utauuta, A Anzupia, Love, Sayaito, Nayu, Ainastar and Youdot.com.
The video itself seems high quality, perhaps due to the length of time, it’s taken to release a debut, though purposefully downplayed through editing features. The video is charming, with colourful styles and backdrops, VHS effects, goofy edits and fast, high energy pacing throughout.
It is enjoyable to watch, though can be a little mesmerizing. A great feature of the video, is that it feels that each member has the spotlight. Offering a fair share of screen time, highlighting each member features and personalities.
The end of the video is equally enjoyable, as we are able to see each member in front of the green screen, offering a behind-the-scenes view into the production, This is a nice feature.
The song itself is what we now expect from a WACK group, it’s catchy, high energy, with strong, well-timed vocals, set to an enjoyable backing track. This one feels a little different though, because it’s WAgg’s debut track, a release that has been a long time coming, yet one that didn’t seem likely.
It’s a strong debut for a group who have persevered and bided their time, and are now ready to prove themselves in the singles chart.
Rating: 80/100.
