Agree~ I don't have a problem with Jrock. Most of the Jrock (that I listen to) is very poetic and sometimes dark (in a beautiful way of course, imo). But with Kpop.... not so much. More superficial stuff I guess. I prefer the complicated-dark-beautiful Japanese rock like the GazettE (best example really).

But on the brighter side Kpop is fun and crazy like this album which I also appreciate in my music~

You know that's what I think of Taeyang's songs. When my sis tells me what the lyrics are about... His songs are so machista!!! Isn't anyone scandalized by this?! Namambarabwa (or w/e) Nigayadeunhue (I think xD). Those two songs are like... damn! But when I hear them I can't help but love the music in itself. Oh well >_>

Finally heard the album last night with my sis and we were like *O* This is CRAZY! I love it!!

"Oh yeah" is amazing!! Love the combination of GD/TOP/BOM it's beautiful (Nichkhun agrees *wink wink*). I absolutely agree that while I have no idea what ghetto electro is I sing it out loud everytime they say it hahahaha It's a fun album, but it also shows other sides of GD and Top like in Top's solo Oh Mom that smooth sweet voice~ And is that Trot GD's singing in his solo "What do you want me to do?" Really a fun album. Gonna order it as soon as I have money~

I agree with # 4 and # 2. I can't wait for 2NE1 to work with Will.I.Am I'm sure they will finally be what "fits" the American market. They wouldn't have to change their style to "fit" the market. I think the YG acts are already quite americanized. Just... if they're doing english lyrics PLEASE work on the enounciation!! That can potentially ruin what could otherwise be a great American release. ALTHOUGH I wish the supposed American Market could accept the fact that these are -foreign- artists and listening to music in another language is cool. "WORLD MARKET!!"

And number two >_> Seriously this needs to stop. One big solution to piracy? Make things available to everyone! I'm one to follow the law (Criminal Justice student xD) so yeah I would like to do things properly and enjoy the wonders of global media. We would all benefit from it you big companies you!

Number 1... seriously? I never thought they would hate subtitles so much in the USA xD I'm so used to them in every American and foreign movie. Even the movies in spanish have english subtitles O-o and we're all spanish speakers here. hehehe

I agree! I'm not a big Calle 13 fan but my cousin is and I was in his car not long before I made the review so I HAD to listen to the whole album. It was a good thing because even if their music isn't what I would prefer to hear Rene's lyrics always catch my attention. I'm in a Social Science Mayor so the kinds of things he says are the kinds of things I agree with. Thus why I loved the song La Bala.
