So it seems that gal trap was both written and composed by Kalen.

* 作詞作曲

I also love the cover artwork. Reminds me of ELT’s eternity cover.

The cover art is gorgeous. Unsure about the track, I mean it sounds cute but funny too. I won't complain because trying a new thing for her is refreshing.

Radio rip of GAL-TRAP.
I really like this, it reminds me a little of MAA/Genki Rockets for their more chill tracks. I can still feel the techy new wave influence even if there's more experimentation here. Looking forward to a more HQ rip though so I can hear out that last half of the track better...

I didn't expect to hear tracks that Kalen had composed herself, I'm so happy they're giving her that opportunity! This was impressive as a first release under her production.

This seems to be going into the "Come again" r&b direction, which in my opinion fits her better than the sound that she debuted with. I like it, it sounds refreshing and I'm impressed that she composed and wrote it herself.

Mhh... I don't know but as for know I'm not into GAL-TRAP. The sounds in the background feeling out of place at some parts. Once it's officially released I'll give it some more listens and maybe it'll grow on me but rigt now it is more a pass for me.
But I also think it is great that she was given the opputurnity to release a song she wrote the lyrics and music herself.

Mmmmmm
I enjoy the song but I don’t know if I’d consider it A-side material. I wish the auto tune was a little less.

I do enjoy this direction though. I’d love to see her collab with some rappers.

The video is cute too.

I think she’s slowly discovering herself as an artist, which is fine.

Love GalTrap! It builds to that great final chorus. Much better then the bootleg Nami Tamaki singles she was releasing!

So it seems that avex is creating an artist that can create their own content. Just like Ayu.

I'm very curious how she'll turn out in the future because Max Matsuura is involved again.

Feel like this will have a big turn in the future and they are giving Kalen time to learn while shes active. Which is the opposite of what Korean companies usually do.

I mean the real great stuff, they might be holding back. It not always just about quality but consistency as well.

Well, i do not like her new song at all for the moment lol.

If there’s a video it could change how I feel, but right now it’s pretty generic. And very similar to Niziuu or whatever their name is. And that sort of sound ain’t for me lol

Does anyone follow her on insta. I think she looks more and more like Ayu, I wonder where this will all go in the future. What do you think?
