OG HUNTR/X Rei Ami is shutting down bashers of BABYMONSTERS’ performance of “Golden” at the 2025 MAMA Awards.
Rei, who did the singing voice of HUNTR/X member Zoey in “Kpop Demon Hunters” said that contrary to the gatekeepers who want only the originals to perform the song, putting others down to uplift their own biases is uncool.
Putting down other groups/artists to uplift your favs is lame. Keep it positive or stfu— stop putting down other women and pitting them against each other. That kind of behavior is exhausting and regressive.

She also called out commenters who only seek to pit women against other women and said that this behavior is regressive. Instead of bashing, she called on true fans of the franchise to support artists who are paying homage to their music.

She also shone the spotlight on the pressure of being put under the microscope.
I say this with all the love. Being in the public eye is not easy. It’s quite scary at times. Let’s just keep it positive and keep it pushing. Thank you ❤️ https://t.co/AfCEcaartr
