Oh my gawd!
I told yall about her. I told ya she was gonna BLOW up! Pop rap at it's finest.
The Good: Where. Do. I. Be. GIN!? The heavy loops, heavy bass, and the overall hot Middle Eastern horn-y vibe of the beat or the American hip hop style and fiery delivery of her lyrics? This really showed her bold side and - with the help of Diplo and Parris Geobel - this and the rest of her US promotions aren't in doubt like other girl groups...
It helps that PSY gave her some love as well.
The Bad: Too American? Korea's hip hop industry, while growing, isn't significant enough to aid her promotions back home. CL's song title "HELLO BITCHES" is enough for some in Asia to love or hate her for her brashness; not good to give her a mixed reaction in Kpop-land. Also, I should note the "twerking" going on in the bridge. Kpop females always teetor between being sexy and sexual by not giving up all the goods but her booty popping could be empowering (like she intended) or enough to get her K-fans to leave her alone.
The Ugly: GOT THEM ASIAN GIRLS DANCING ON THE COUCHES LIKE THE KNOW ME AND THEY SINGING ON THE BAR LIKE THEY WAS AT TGE KAREOKE, HUH. You tell em, girl. You ain't no ponoccio Hello Kitty. You're a real bitch now! Slay, queen. Slay!
