Review: CL - Hello Bitches

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!

Kpop: CL/Diplo/Riff Raff/OG Maco - Doctor Pepper MV

Oh come on! You watched it only for CL. Not Diplo or the other dude.

B*TCH I GUESSED IT! ... And I was right, wasn't I?

CL's beat dropped a couple of months ago but the video is here! Keep a open mind as this is not a Kpop song but a Kpop artist doing an American hip hop song collab, please? So tired of the kpop stans giving this so much hate. I'm judging her as if she were a hip hop artist in America for that reason.

Also, THIS IS NOT HER USA DEBUT. Don't get sad over this song.

The Good: Catchy as faq. Like the monotone melody (if that exists) and ratchet delivery of CL's verse. Riff Raff and OG Maco held their own as well.

The Bad: Basic hip hop song. She sounds like any other rapper and leaves me feeling unconvinced. I know CL for her usual awesomeness but most Americans don't know who she is yet. I'm not worried because she is getting good exposure for this song but will the kpop fans be with her? I don't know.

The Ugly: IT'S A COLLAB! Keep the high expections low for any hip hop collab. It's just a simple showcase for rappers. Nothing more. You know the GBZ, The Baddest Female, can do better than that.

I give this 3 out of 5 Blinded Pikachus

Now where my bad girls at? Where you at?

Kpop to USA: CL's USA Debut.... THANK GOD THEY HAVE A DATE!!!

Septermber

The music video shoot will be promoted in Korea and the United States. What song, IDK. (Pray it's not Doctor Pepper)

Remeber the man working on promoting the album is Scooter Braun... Does Ariana Grande, Psy, Justin Beiber (don't cringe), and Carly Rae Jepsen ring a bell?

I have such high hopes for her... As rachet as that song is. (rachet = ghetto = uncivilized)

Kpop: CL - Dr. Pepper feat. OG Maco, Diplo, RiFF RAFF

Check out the audio... THIS IS NOT  THE USA DEBUT! I repeat THIS IS NOT HER AMERICAN DEBUT!

:D

She sounds like any other female rapper from the US but still worth a good listen. She's got that flow that make ya go and it shows that her debut (whenever it migh be. The BBC is assuming it'll be very soon. Is it enough to compete with Iggy Azelia and Nikki Manaj? Maybe but there's still work for her. Hopefully she can succeed so Park Bom and the rest of 2ne1 can get a job. lol No really, YG said her success means 2ne1'll debut in the USA this Fall/Winter.

All yall Blackjacks better get on it! How much do you love the Baddest Female?

Kpop Rumor: Girl's Generation (SNSD) Preparing For USA Debut

Could be lies spread but the rumor mill grows. I have no sources but SM Entertainment has been subltle with the idea even after thier failed attempt with Boys. SM Entertainment seems to be waiting to see how 2ne1's CL USA debut will fare before trying any ideas.
