Yes

I'm still waiting for someone to post a good song of her, I really don't get why anybody would stan for her.

It's her own fault though. That and her management is the worst I've seen for an artist as big as she is in my life.

Why? They get her amazing promo spots like the March Madness which was used to promote not only American Acid but also right now. They are doing a decent job with a woman who refuses to shoot music videos after the 2nd single drops.

Gagz never liked competition so...

Wait, didn't you just sign up a year ago?
Mess at you tracking my posts before you could even make some of your own.

The "won't you please, plEEEeEEEeEEEase" in Dreamlover gives me chills, the melisma there is perfectly pitched.
The resonance she has that high in head voice is insane.
Still one of my favorites out of Mimi's hits.

What demographic is she even gonna be marketed to in the US? I doubt urban will accept a Korean girl singing/rapping about a soft drink and the K Pop novelty wore off with Psy in the mainstream. Going for Taylors country audience maybe?

Sabina Tang: A song about having enough self-awareness to realize one is caught in a pattern of destructive romantic behaviour, without the ability to stop — structured in do-you-SEE style as a series of earworms looping infinitely back on itself. The chorus, then, should theoretically invoke an actual scream of hapless frustration (“Why do I keep doing this to myself?”), but arrives as a stuttery hook that dissipates rather than releases energy. The middle eight is the one moment of stillness, as the cycle grinds to a halt in lucid self-loathing: “I’m in love with a man again,” sighs CL, “and it’s pathetic.”

1.5 years, but older members keep making fun of you for staning it saying she will happen since 2012. I just trust them cuz it seems like something you'd do.

So cute, you are.


Pitchfork
2NE1 - CRUSH
7.3

As one could imagine, Crush is similarly fashioned around the shapeshifter CL, who wrote lyrics and composed three songs on the album in addition to the solo thumper “MBTD”. Crush, in total, is exactly the stylemash you’ve become accustomed to from the group, a release that bottles up contemporary trends (such as the blurry trap sound frequented by Future and others) as well as the usual EDM/reggae/hip-hop/R&B hybrid that YG’s in-house producers favor for the quartet. While the instinct to position the versatile CL in the front of 2NE1 is right on, her compositions fall a hair short of Crush’s standouts, which include the earworms “Come Back Home” and “Happy” as well the subtle, pretty G-Dragon-penned ballad “Good to You”. But it’s not a “sore thumb” situation: CL stacks up to the more experienced hands of the YG factory, and thus seems primed for a huge solo career. Crush represents a sleeker, more refined vision for the group; if nothing else, the well-balanced record serves as a capsule of the outfit’s pop instincts and versatility. Though the soulful, organ-spiked R&B take “Baby I Miss You” might be the most natural fit for the group, they generally make a breeze of it, bolstering strong performances by the ensemble of Dara, Minzy and Park Bom.

In his K-Pop primer from 2011, James Brooks made much of 2NE1's brash, attention-grabbing ethos; Crush finds them wisely dialing back the assault. And, unlike G-Dragon’s strained crossover attempt Coup d’Etat, YG’s team—primarily the producers Teddy, DEE.P and CHOICE 37—create something fairly universal on Crush. Like a number of records in this vein, there are a handful of moments that push the sound’s signature maximalism too far—I would argue that “Come Back Home” holds up plenty well without the skizz-skizz-WOMP-WOMP-WOMP breakdown stapled to the bridge—but maybe that’s a little like penalizing a Swans album for having too many guitars. With Crush, 2NE1 succeed on their inlaid mission statement—they've made music for anyone.

Thanks.
The last belt gives me chills too.
The last "baby come and take me take me awAAAAAAAAY" is literally pop perfection, and just when you think the ear orgasm is over she takes you "up, uhhhHHhhhhHhp oh ohwuhoh."
Like Jesus Christ, she leaves zero chance of anyone matching her melismas or even coming close.
I have to ask though, Fantasy or Dreamlover?
I love both but I have to give it to Dreamlover because the simpler production makes it a much easier/breezy listen. Sometimes I get the feeling that Fantasy was over-produced, but that may be just me. Another reason why I give the edge to Dreamlover is lyrically I find it better. I also think Dreamlover has way more replay value.

Do It Again is the best dance record to come after 2013 still.

Anyways, can't wait until the fans of the korean girl pretend like reviews don't matter because there's no way anybody will think that trash she posted on Facebook is good.
