Ranking 116 Queendom/Kingdom Performances (with reasoning!)

This was difficult and I worked very hard but I’m sure I'll disagree with my own opinions in the future lol. Either way, it’s about analyzing and appreciating these great performances and hopefully getting even more people to check them out, not about actually pitting these groups against each other.

For this video, I made an extensive list of criteria and I marked 116 performances based on that criteria. I used different sets of criteria for performances that didn’t have dancing or rapping and weighted them accordingly. I did this to be as objective in as many ways as possible and keep my priorities in check. But obviously my personal taste will come into play as well and, since I made up the list of what I consider important and how much it’s weighted, there’s still personal values in that too. Even so, any bias that will be present will be in terms of my genre/theme preference not group/artist preference.

At the end I will briefly show the top ranked performances in certain categories just to highlight those with notable strengths even if they don’t score high in every single category. I’ll also show some of my personal preference ranking as it’ll also show different ones than those I tried to objectively rank as “best”.

Please keep in mind there are many technical, financial, and social factors that may have impacted the performances that I’m not taking into account like: budget, genre of the song, amount of set pieces, audience vs lack of audience, expectations of the show’s season, expectations of that round’s mission, expectations of men vs women, lip-sync vs live singing, how the members are feeling, group size, certain editing aspects and so on.

So this is in no way an actual ranking of the groups or their objective abilities and honestly there’s no right way to even rank these performances in general. In short, I’m not saying I’m 100% I’m just sharing my evaluation so please be respectful.
