you say that like it's a bad thing.

 

[Peru]

questionmark, det er ikke mitt problem at du ikke skjønner deg på standard engelsk som går litt utover de enkleste setningene du lærte på barneskolen.

Meanwhile, preview of Yuri's Bazaar shoot

Quiz>bingo

 

[Dice]

Too bad Hyuna saves up ALL of her awesome for solo performances. Meanwhile, Sohyun is great everywhere.

So is this like when someone breaks out into english on kdramas?

 

[RubyFaith]

I do appreciate this Sohyun loving. I really do.

I think I may have offended him.

 

[Peru]

No, no.. only with your taste in shoes. That's where our core feud lies.

[Peru]

This could be good.

Allkpop sister site 'Smackjuice' has to be the worst I've ever read.

MV will be awesome. Song will suck.

There's a tracklist in the description.

"Ma Boy Smells Remix"

 

[Dice]

Yo dawg Crayon Pop really is good. They remind me of early Kara, so charming despite giving such an amateur vibe. The song is really good, too.

Truth, everyone should check them out.

Jesus christ you've lost your mind.

Dice is just a little enthusiastic.

Damn. This is going to be one helluva boring summer song, isn't it? Sistar was on a roll.

Probably. Oasis by the Brown Eyed Girls will always be my K-Pop Summer song though.

 

[Dice]

This video has proper audio balance: http://youtu.be/5kspxVWlLDM?hd=1

Everything so good, so right. Gotta see them on stage before I say anything crazy but potential rookies of the year right here. Yes, even over Spica.

I too am however excited to learn the scent of sistar's boy.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Jeffdell91]

Dam that bod!!!

TOP is nice but doesn't have the moves.

OH... He don't need the moves. Just his style and personality is what matters.
T.O.P is my favorite in the BigBang crew and always will be. <3

 

[Dice]

There are plenty of good singers who release stuff that gets hella boring rather quickly. Such was true of Spica's songs and Ailee's shit song wasn't even good for one listen. My single measure for rankings is my personal enjoyment.

 

[Peru]

No one was talking about vocal capabilities.

 

[Dice]

Yes Peru, we all know you don't like cute things.

 

[Selane]

Oasis by the Brown Eyed Girls will always be my K-Pop Summer song though.

If there's one song that I think of when I think of Summer, it'd probably be Etude.

As for Sohyun, I have nothing against her, but her beak-like upper lip kind of freaks me out. Almost as bad as that gummi worm Sulli likes to call an upper lip.

And I agree that Jihyun isn't talented, but damn is she hot.

 

[Edgeward]

Crayon pop is good. That is all

Beside the voting, people wrote in Special Mentions :
BEAST
Mighty Mouth ft. Soya
Solid -> I suppose this group?


Vote distribution:

Not much competition in this category, Big Bang love is known in GAF.
And with two albums they were active all this half.
EXO for a rookie impressed, for me Infinite was a good surprise.
And many people only voted for first place, not sure how this impacted the following places.

 

[Jeffdell91]

There never was competition for BB. They came a long way!

 

[Peru]

Yes Peru, we all know you don't like cute things.

Err, it's all about the songs. And personality. Anything that separates a group. None of which this crayon thing has. Song is half-decent, better than some of the worst rookie groups, but that's not saying much.

I've liked several cute songs/groups, and I didn't find this group to be annoyingly cutesy. Dead-faced members didn't instill much confidence in future performances, however.

 

[bloodforge]

Big Bang is the only male group I even listen too, don't even remember who I voted for 2 and 3.

 

[AgentChris]

Who is going to the Newark concert for BB?

I'm going to the NYC concert. Still waiting on the details though.

 

[Kuno]

Yo dawg Crayon Pop really is good. They remind me of early Kara, so charming despite giving such an amateur vibe. The song is really good, too.

Just wanted to show my support and say that this Crayon Pop song is the shiznit. The girls are cute, the dance is fun and the song is awesome. So what if they seem like "budget" idols? Hopefully they can get on some shows with this song.

I went ahead and did a re-balance of the audio and inserted it back into their MV. If anyone wants it, they can grab it >here<!

 

[Jeffdell91]

I'm going to the NYC concert. Still waiting on the details though.

It's not in NYC though. It's in NJ, Newark. I think tickets are going to range from low:50$ to a high:250$

 

[AgentChris]

I think there are more tour dates yet to be revealed... I hope so.

 

[RubyFaith]

awwwww yeah, get some Crayon Pop loving going on. Love while you still can, they're probably the biggest nugus right now and will disappear like half the members in Taken.

Just don't touch my waifu Soyul.

 

[JustinBB7]

Running Man ep 91 Isubs got released for VIP members, holy shit that ep was funny! It's the Yoomes Bond 2 special.

 

[Quadratic]

I was the one who put a special mention in for Mighty Mouth. I really liked their promotion cycle of Bad Boy.

 

[YoungMandu]

Wow, I'm really loving this song Montage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-mNXYebIBs&feature=plcp.
Thank you K-Crunch Indie. The guitars, bass, his voice... they're so addicting! Na na na na~

I referred to them as budget because their music video looked cheap, which is a good signifier that their company doesn't have the money to promote them well. They've been quite a few groups debut with good songs but struggle to get regular appearances on music shows.

My favourite example is a classical girl group who debuted last year called 'La.g' (not to be confused with Lay.T) they released a two track mini and didn't get to appear on any music show. This was one of songs called 'Don’t Be Mistaken'

Chi Chi have a comeback soon. Whats the odd of them returning with a song a good as 'Longer'?

Yup, they stood out on last weeks Music Core:

[Dice]

Glad to see others are liking Crayon Pop, but I feel it must be said...

If these two aren't twins, I just came down with a new case of ALS syndrome.

 

[RubyFaith]

They are twins. Probably my second favorite in the group. GOD I HOPE THEY'LL BE ABLE TO PROMOTE.

For another song where CL does all the work, Minzy backs her up, Bom's tired voice tries to sing the chorus and Dara just does whatever she's told to look productive? Ok.

 

[YoungMandu]

Roly Poly dance in the Simpsons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=oLGDb-ZrZ68

I hope you guys haven't forgot about D-Unit which has Boram's sister in it.

 

[Dice]

They are twins. Probably my second favorite in the group. GOD I HOPE THEY'LL BE ABLE TO PROMOTE.

If they aren't able to promote after some of the shit groups I've seen this year got a good chance, I will be a bit upset.

 

[RubyFaith]

My interest for D-unit (terribad name, btw) has peeked. Midget's sister is of great interest to me.

If they aren't able to promote after some of the shit groups I've seen this year got a good chance, I will be a bit upset.

I'll just be upset period.

 

[Peru]

Great song from a rookie group that never got to promote http://youtu.be/_tu2cTAyHNY
Another good, ridiculous song that never got a shot. So obscure they're not on youtube http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjY5Njk4NDAw.html

Shit, forgot the best. Don't think I saw these on any shows..? Mellow BOWOWOWOW http://youtu.be/CBHVszPc24g

 

[Edgeward]

D-Business? Really? Good God.

Anyway the girl with pony tail in Crayon Pop is my fave and then Soyul.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Who is going to the Newark concert for BB?

Well I will either watch BigBang somewhere in California or see Giant kickboxers beat each other up in Los Angeles in September. I haven't decided yet.

 

[Peru]

It would be so cool if D-Unit debuted with some loud angry stomping thing like B.A.P's Warrior. Probably won't, though.

 

[Oreoleo]

Oasis by the Brown Eyed Girls will always be my K-Pop Summer song though.

I haven't been able to find a download for this single aaaanywhereee D:
edit- wait these songs are on leave ms kim? how the fuck did i not know this? fake double edit- oh because the english wikipedia tracklist is all in korean cause they're dumb. awesome.


I've been rocking Bulggeun/Suddenly Song a ton lately. I don't know anything about it or where it's from but Miryo has like 3 verses so it's automatically awesome.
