✨ Ass Fat ✨ 9,598 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Both groups are known for their talented vocal talent though what made Mamamoo popular? SPICA has exactly what Mamamoo has and arguabley has the better vocals What do you think it was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Eight 6,542 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I really wish that Spica were more popular cos they are talented af, but I just can't get into their songs. They are boring. Mamamoo have more interesting songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByulHarangBona 35,161 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Personally I enjoy seeing Mamamoo performing because they seem to enjoy performing so much.I don't get the same feeling from SPICA although I agree they sing well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogwai 15,203 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I prefer Spica but I think Mamamoo has the better overall vocal average. Mamamoo's company knows how to handle their promotions, and Mamamoo themselves know how to connect with their fanbase. Spica disappears for too long in between promotions. They can't afford that when they're not popular. While Spica is gone, five thousand other newer, younger groups debuted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue7kaoru 17,423 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Their company, fresh songs (which korean like)comapred to Spica who had mature songs, also they're younger... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nani. 3,784 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Luck. No shade intended but most of the time...luck and timing are also big factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ღBelle Ame� 1,427 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I will say charm, but I don't follow SPICA. So I think it's their collaboration and good marketing team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayden411 6,540 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I think timing and a more personal touch with the fanbase (a lot of activity on youtube and v app to keep interest). I think as well them showing a bit more personality on stage helped but that's a management decision for image more than the girls themselves. probs as others said just different management tbh and rules. I don't mind spica but their songs don't stand out to me compared to mamamoo but that's a personal preference as there are plenty that feel mamamoo are boring in contrast so who really knows?

SunnyHill's Comeback 2,080 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 As a fan of both, Mamamoo are extremely interactive and have personality in both live performances and music videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whasa 1,939 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I was actually into SPICA from the very beginning -- debut and all. Which is why when Mamamoo debuted I thought they would fade into oblivion just like SPICA did, as the two groups were so similar in terms of being a 'vocal/performance' group. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised by Mamamoo's success. I think the three factors are luck, timing and promotion. Mamamoo were promoted better in terms of a brand. Their songs all have that jazz-inspired/retro sort of theme which means its cohesive and heightens their overall recognisability. Their personalities and group dynamic are presented as fun-loving and beagle-like, meaning more opportunities for variety shows and public exposure. This image also sort of determined how they would interact with their fanbase (ie being close, innovative tactics) The members also debuted at a younger age compared to SPICA.

scarlette007 5,232 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Luck. Also now most SPICA members are mid-late 20s. Koreans/fans are fickled; they idolize youth. But Boa and Bohyung' voices are better than Mamamoo. But there is a great range in vocal strength in SPICA while Mamamoo has less members/more concentrated vocals. But the largest reason is luck. Luck plays a huge factor in who gains popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animeuver 5,881 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 A smart company ^ Mamamoo's company basically worked out a series of concepts fittied around the girls' personalities, which made their songs their own. Plus their naturally outgoing and interactive personality really kept the fandom going - I heard they let their fans design their stage outfits, for one. Such things makes the fans feel appreciated, and keep them dedicated with ample activities. Besides, Mamamoo didn't strike it big at first, it was with each comeback that fans get to see and know them better. It's a shame about SPICA though. Everyone, even the general k-netz seem to think of SPICA as underrated, yet few were actual fans that support or are dedicated to the group. Another thing is probably the fact that they're a 'older' group, sadly. Unless you've been active for several years with a solid fandom, older groups aren't as well-received as their younger peers. Perhaps if SPICA opened up more platforms for them to perform in the indie sphere it could have made things a bit different, but with their current marketing it doesn't seem to be hitting the right audience.

⊿ 2,282 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Mamamoo gives off this much more refreshing and interesting feeling. I don't get that with Spica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss.Miss 8,896 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 A good company with great understanding of how the industry works, good group dynamic, good interactions between the members and the fans, also members seemed to have a bit more freedom and participation in the building of their career and of course a lot of luck.
