Welcome to the K pop World.

My all-time favorite artist right off the bat: Big Bang.
A korean hiphop band that created an evolution in South Korean fashion/music/hiphop era.
Ever since their debut in 2006, they've been racing toward success non stop.
Whether performing or resting, their popularity never seems to decrease as they dominate the whole Asian billboard chart everytime they make a comeback.









The song -- How Gee, was released in their first Japanese debut album.
Entirely made up of English lyrics attracted many fans from different countries.
This song, strongly showing the band's color and style created a hit throughout Japan and S. Korea, along with other Asian countries.
A fancy beat, something like what you would hear in an 80's musical is transformed to a modern, hip hop beat overflowing with rap. The tune is absolutely catchy and addicting as it gets stuck in your ears before you know it.

  5. That was a good song but not my favorite, it's pretty cool how you found out.
    They actually associate hiphop with a lot of other genres like raggae, r&b, electropop, rock etc adding their own color which is pretty wicked :>
