YG Entertain group iKON is finally making their debut and, while not what some were expecting, this is probably a good move for them.
My Type is the kind of song that seems light-years away from what this hip-pop group was supposed to be about; high energy tracks that were meant for dancing as well as listening. The thing is that this is a good move for the long-term success of the group by not pigeon-holing them right out the gate. Considering this group essential got their stage debut by performing up-tempo tracks, it makes sense to show that they can entertain by doing something other than what they’re known for. More than likely the first single from the album will be the hip-pop, dance track everyone was expecting this to be.
That being said, however, this track is by no means perfect. The lyrics, while nothing stunning, make sense and the vocals are actually pretty good, but the production of the track is a drag on the rest of it. There is something about the nursery rhyme melody that strikes the ear wrong and makes you tune out after a while. It’s just too plain vanilla for those who aren’t already into this group (or into this type of song) to pay any extra attention. It’s not awful; it’s just…meh.

Lyrics:
You’re my type, you’re my type
Even if you don’t say anything, I have a feeling
From your head to your toes, everything
You’re my type
When I look at you, I want you so bad I go crazy
I think about you even right before I go to sleep
pow
Your sneakers under your thin ankles
A perfect harmony with your denim skinny jeans
Under your slightly big cardigan
Your falling, long, straight hair is so pretty
Your shy eye smile, the look on your face when you space out
It all looks so pretty to me, it makes my heart tremble
Why did you come now? You’re my type
oh oh your delicate smile
oh oh your eyes when you look at me
There is no flaw anywhere
There’s no time to be bored, you’re perfect
oh oh your cute voice
oh oh we’re getting closer
Why did you come now?
Love has finally come to me
You’re my type, you’re my type
Even if you don’t say anything, I have a feeling
From your head to your toes, everything
You’re my type
When I look at you, I want you so bad I go crazy
I think about you even right before I go to sleep
pow
A girl, can I ask you something?
Where did you learn to talk so chicly?
you work and walk and spit words like a boss
wonder woman, in reality you’re so feminine
Oh you have a sensual feeling
I’m captivated by your alluring eyes
Your detailed touch
But your body movements are slightly awkward, I like it babe
oh oh your delicate smile
oh oh your eyes when you look at me
There is no flaw anywhere
There’s no time to be bored, you’re perfect
oh oh your cute voice
oh oh we’re getting closer
Why did you come now?
Love has finally come to me
You’re my type, you’re my type
Even if you don’t say anything, I have a feeling
From your head to your toes, everything
You’re my type
When I look at you, I want you so bad I go crazy
I think about you even right before I go to sleep
pow
I really like you
Even when you yawn sometimes
It’s my style
We have a good connection
My heart is overwhelmed
Every time you call my name
I can’t stop smiling
Oh girl you know that I love you
You’re my type, you’re my type
Even if you don’t say anything, I have a feeling
From your head to your toes, everything
You’re my type
When I look at you, I want you so bad I go crazy
I think about you even right before I go to sleep
pow
I really like you
Even when you yawn sometimes
It’s my style
I really like you
Even when you yawn sometimes
It’s my style
