2NE1 kinda kicks ass.

2NE1 keeps popping up on my radar, here and there on the internets, so I checked them out, even with ridiculously slow internet speeds here. Ended up being worth it.

K-Pop is similar to J-Pop in that it can have the same kind of overproduced feel [hell, mainstream pop anywhere is like that, truth be told - very little difference between Morning Musume and Britney Spears, when you think about it...] but maybe it's just from my time in Japan they seem somewhat similar. But I dug the hell out of these. I dig on the cross cultural bits, the English mixed with Korean, the hip-hop-pop hybrid, the wicked choreography and the eclectic styling. Pretty damn cool. Catchy.
