FOUR artists that i know of have called out jype or mentioned how bad it is there. baek yerin posted about how “laughable” the company is and how nobody gets anything done there and had to delete and apologize, then went on to leave and say she was scared of where it was going.
she REMOVED HER PERSONAL ACCOUNT. you can literally look it up & find articles upon articles about it. she wasnt allowed to release any music, she said every little thing was criticized and the adults working there were “scary and laughable” . then they had her account taken down
sunmi went to a jyp concert and told him to his face “do you remember when you didnt allow me to release siren because you said it would tank on the charts? i left and released it, and it hit #1.” she said in an interview that he was in charge of EVERYTHING +
even her facial expressions while performing “24 hours” . if he didnt like it, she was told to do it how he liked it. she said it was very disheartening to have no control and be pushed around to fit what somebody else liked. she said she would not work like that/with them again.
literally this video
and now jae . who has done nothing but work his ass off to bring day6 more attention and interact with their international fans and give us content that we all loved and cherished. its sad that their company has pushed them to these points.
i was also reminded of jay parks song (i think it was fuckboy) where he talks about his old teacher that was scared of his artists surpassing him. which, yknow. is pretty obvious who its about. and taecyeon in 2014 saying that jype needed to undergo some serious reform.
got7 has shaded the company in so many ways both big and small.. for example, this video. bambam has also told a fan “jype is bad” then laughed it off in front of staff. they always show that they arent happy with how the co is treating them
after a show where jyp listened to 5 sec of tracks that jaebeom put together himself before throwing them out + picking the 1 that sounds the most like his own music, jaebeom went bowling with some of the members & they told him “pretend the pins are jyp” he got a strike.
he said jyp is a “wall that i have to smash through” there was also a live where he played demos of songs that jyp “fixed” or rejected. he also revealed that he had written two songs that were meant for g7 but got rejected and sold, jb’s parts cut out so he wouldnt get credit.
this live hasnt been uploaded by vlive but all of his other lives have, even ones that happened after. this was a while ago now.
jaebeom constantly talks about how eclipse was torn apart to the point that he couldnt recognize his own work. hes very vocal about how theyre not allowed to make any music without jyps approval. https://twitter.com/prdshore/status/1277912291262885891?s=21 https://twitter.com/prdshore/status/1277912291262885891
