They debuted November 17 and dropping their music video for Black Mamba. Aespa didn't really have a great impression to me due to SM's creepy stunts about their AI avatars. I don't think the people or fans are ready for this kind of advanced technology to apply to kpop fandom, and nope I cannot really resemble this to Japan's virtual idol Hatsune Miku since it does not represent anyone in reality. Unlike aespa AI avatars which represents the members in reality. Heck, we already have hardcore fans out there (sasaengs and perverted population) so I'm thinking how this newest input of SM about AI avatars could worsen this situation. I just hope they wouldn't sell aespa's AI avatars' life size dolls in the future.
Anyways, back to their debut, despite the not so good impression of how SM is building them to the public with their creepy plans, their music really saved this group. I mean, Black Mamba is really such a great song to bop your head with it's bad ass beat. It's like female empowerment, saying 'move out of our way as*holes/men' lol I'm just kidding, but hey it's really bad ass! It's so good! The dance steps were freaking cool as well and I'm pretty sure it's difficult to dance to with all the drop on the floor steps. It looked scary but it becomes sexier as you watch and listen to it again and again. That drop really fits that blast of sound in their music, it's addicting.
