This is awesome.



Minzy sounds great in this. And I didn't know CL could sing! She's still my least favorite member, but she also sounds great here.



Oh, what song(s) did they do with will.i.am? I've seen the episodes with him on 2NE1TV, but I don't know their discography well enough.

Back last year they went to America and recorded a bunch of songs at his place. Probably demos. Cause eventually they are going to have an American debut and it'll be through him that they do it. :D

Ah, ok, so they haven't released them yet.



I hope they play in NYC when they debut! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /weeeh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':weeeh:' />

That's fantastic. I had seen the 10 sec and 20sec teasers, but that ending bit on the 30sec teaser is made of fluffy rainbow-colored kitties.

Longer preview is out.



And sad news, the MV will be delayed a few days because it's so epic that it needs time to marinate.

LOL, man. That hair would only ever be allowed to happen in YG. Love it XD I hated this song at first, it reminded me too much of their early stuff and while I liked those songs, I was liking how they've been expanding lately. But it's just too much of a jam to resist.

Music Video is OUT~ WATCH IT NOW!!!



(Oh, and the single is available in US iTunes stores now, so BUY IT if you haven't already! :D)





I love the MV, but then I always love 2ne1's single videos, always so cool and creative and nothing like other girl Kpop groups. :D

I'd have to say this mv is one of my least favorites from 2ne1 so far. :/ I don't really know why, but it just seems lamer than all their other videos except maybe lollipop. The song however is awesome and I love it.

The I'm The Best MV is really just an upgraded Can't Nobody MV, which is all I ever really want out of my 2NE1. It might even be the first 2NE1 song I liked almost immediately. Okay, I lied. I think I remember liking Nan Bappa right away.



In conclusion, I want to put it in my mouth.



You know what else I want to put in my mouth? Japan activities = more 2NE1 for me.

I wonder how it'll go, though.

I think its just saying it'll be released at 5am on July 20th, since it's a digital release, and they'll have control of exactly when it goes up to the servers, barring any technical difficulties.

But the thing is that "I Am The Best" is out already, which is why I'm confused as to the message.

That whole image is teasing their Japanese promotions, so that's when it'll be available in Japan. Hence Rekochoku, I'm guessing?

2NE1 are clearly the queens of KPOP. Have they done something not interesting yet?

Seriously. I know it sounds insanely biased, but this entire set of releases (and their last set too, to be honest) has been so ace that I feel like there's no competition. I sometimes feel like YG totally spoils the fans (when they're not taking forever to release something). Awesome MV's, interesting release cycles, amazing fashion, subbed videos on youtube and heavy fan interaction... om nom nom. As ridiculous as it sounds, I almost feel like the actual music is their weak point. They excel at image. I like the music, mind you.



HATE YOU is out! So Daft Punk! My best friend it was more deadmau5. We agree to disagree.



The Bom segments are amazing! Taking selcas and eating corn while being a super spy? Ahahahaha.

Yup, completely ace. Though I disagree that the actual music is the weak point. It's the best part for me, and everything else if just icing.



I like this song a lot. It's not outstanding or a homerun (a 10, bestest song evarrrr), but it's really solid (9).



Also also!

2NE1 - I Am The Best (PV)!! That's right, PV instead of MV. (Read: It's a Japanese version!) <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /weeeh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':weeeh:' />



Still kicks ass, but I still prefer the Korean version of the song. I don't know how much of that is the bias of having heard the Korean version first, but we'll see.

I think the Japanese version is AWFUL. I was drowning in second hand embarrassment, to be honest. When CL went "ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRbody" it was just... ergh.



Also take my post in no way as me thinking the music isn't good. Saying the music is the worst part of 2NE1 is kind of like saying one kitten covered in glitter and sunshine dust is slightly less delightful than the other.

Yeah, some of the English was incomprehensible. And that part with CL was pretty awful. Surprising, coming from CL.



On the other hand, I like that they still kept the Korean song title. That would've been awkward if they changed it to anything else.

Not even five minutes in...

Minzy: Clothes are so uncomfortable.



How long have I waited for someone else to say that? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /dance.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':dance:' />



The static is annoying. Very annoying. The fact I sit through it is testament to how much I like 2NE1.
