TWICE Puts A Hip-Hop Twist On The “YMCA” Song On “Immortal Song 2”

On the May 21st episode of KBS’ Immortal Song 2, JYP Entertainment’s hot new girl group TWICE took on the golden classic “YMCA.”

Dressed in their cheerleader uniforms to match their recent promotions for “Cheer Up,” the girls of TWICE took to the Immortal Song 2 stage with an energetic and contagious rendition of “YMCA.”

They opened with a classic and mellow verse of the track before transitioning to a spunky hip-hop backbeat complete with rap and dance. The audience members appeared to enjoy the performance, grooving along to the renewed “YMCA.” However, the group faced some criticism from commenters who felt their stage was not up to par for the show, albeit recognizing their improvement and energy.

Meanwhile, the rookies have stayed at the top of the charts with “Cheer Up,” surely an impressive feat for the young girl group! Check out their stage below:
