Set to debut in a 4-member girl group that follows in the footsteps of BLACKPINK and BABYMONSTER, EVELLI is the first member to step into the spotlight. Her monthly evaluation stage, shown unfiltered in the video, captured a powerful and dynamic performance of Doechii’s “Nosebleeds.”
While her lovely visuals first catch the eye, it’s her husky low-tone vocals and confident stage presence that truly command attention. EVELLI flowed seamlessly between steady grooves and fast-paced rap, showcasing an impressive range of tempo control and charisma far beyond her years. Her ability to handle a challenging hip-hop track with both swag and finesse instantly drew comparisons to her YG predecessors.
EVELLi is more than just a promising performer. She's also fluent in English, Korean, and Spanish, signaling her potential as a truly global artist. With a sharp stage presence and strong vocal and rap skills, she has already proven herself as an all-rounder well-suited for YG’s iconic girl group lineage.
