2NE1 Unappreciated?

CL, Park Bom, Dara, Minzy

Alright 2NE1. This girl group is probably the hottest issue right now due to there company, YG Entertainment, and second album 'To Anyone' these four girls while be releasing and promoting their 3 MV's before they leave for Japan for next year.

If you don't know 2NE1 here's a short something, something:
CL- The Leader, Rapper and Labeled Fashionista
Park Bom (박 범) - Main Vocal, Oldest and Soulful (I mean seriously you need to hear this girl she amazing)
Dara- Vocal, Actress and Hyper
Minzy- Vocal, Rapper, Youngest and THE Dancer

Though this group is a touchy subject, either you Love them or Hate them. These girls have Diehard Haters and riot-inducing, face punching Fans.



In Korea their known for their fierceness and some say this is "Unorthodox" or "Their taking the Korean out of Korean Pop". It is a fact that their songs are very western and auto-tuned but I enjoy them. Their performances are always energetic and entertaining, not to mention their songs are addictive.

Before you misunderstand I’m not a “OMMMMMGGG 2NE1/ 2NE1 FOREVER/ 2NE1 FOR PRESIDENT” type of fan but i do like them. Their a breath of fresh air because one gets tired of the -

“I’m going to singing about my first love, puff up my mouth and throw in a peace sign while i have 67 wardrobe changes in this 3 minute mv”
Or
“Look at those sexy legs to distract you from the fact that only 3 of them actually get to sing”
*coughs*SNSD, Nine Muses*cough*

People often call them fake, one in particular CL. BUT i prefer fake fierceness and girl power then Lollipops, extra wide goggly eyes and creepy smiles.
Just saying

Though I have to admit I am a fan of everything YG produced, if these girls really sucked I would say it with out hesitation.
For example:
A song from their second album 아파 (slow) "Apa" not one of my favorites, these girls should have just let Bom sing the whole song if at all, maybe add some pinches of Minzy, but they should try to stay away from these kind of ballads. I heard them sing slow songs but this is just toooo slow.

To me these girls are unappreciated. Their breaking stereotypes and kicking down doors with electronic beats to reggae rhythms; they have true talent, to bad their being bashed for showing it.
