the industry been trying to push these k-pop acts to crossover in america but they never stick.

they pushed CL hard and she flopped.



had her signing about drinking 40's in the bronx while gridiing on black men with a method man cameo and still didn't move the needle :pachaha:


CL was really lame and not that talented. Average singer, average dancer, average rapper, average looks.

Hyolyn has a better chance at getting famous in the western market because of her vibe but I don't think she's really trying to break through. She's already extremely successful and just enjoys doing thotty music.

Thereā€™s obviously still a market for boy bands. Wonder why the states have completely abandoned that market? :jbhmm:

So apparently Simon Cowell is still trying this. Had One Direction not fallen apart after their best member left they'd probably still be doing the boy band stuff.

This is what Simon is trying to make happen now to compete with kpop



:mjpls:

In general, however, boy bands just don't have the clout like they used to in a western market. BTS have a international fanbase so their game goes beyond Asia and the US. They are on a global scale and can manage to sell out anywhere they go.
Last boy group that had pull like that was n'sync

They have a good discography. They are better than the average kpop group. Well, their rapper line are levels beyond most. Their vocalists are very average but pull their weight.
They became famous because of their fast in synce choreography that go perfectly with their fast paced rapping.
I find alot of black women are into Kpop. Can you give some insight to why?

I can't say why to black women specifically because not all black women think alike but kpop appeals to women of all ethnicities and all ages. I know thirty and forty year old black, white and Korean women into kpop. I know black men huge fans of girl groups, and it's rare when they go hard for a boy group. Straight black male fans are very quiet and don't really interact or get involved with fandom stuff. They like girl groups with visuals and talent.

But if you are worried that it's becoming a epidemic I wouldn't. There are more middle eastern, American Asian and south Asian fans than black fans in total.

Women just have the worst musical taste :mjlol:

If you ever wondered why some lame ass musically retarded nikka was chart topping it's because women put him there.

so if they dont think like you....something is wrong?

and this is why music sucks as a whole...creativity is shot down....

Looks like BTS might stick around for a while the machine has pushed them well.

loudest pop of the night for these goofy lookin dudes...bigger than Janet & Salt n Pepa combined

BTS
bts.jpg

full

Dope beat.. sounds super black and urban
Dope flow.. sounds super black and urban
Dope dance routine.. looks super black and urban
Dope outfits... looks styled by someone who is urban and black
Dope drops and drum programming... sounds super black and urban

Wait, how exactly is this not cultural and racial appropriation? I'm sure they can be entertaining.. but how is this totally ok?

Imagine a group of black dudes going to South-Korea and making Korean music...

Also: why is there ALWAYS a black chick in the crowd going insane over any non-black artist? Why is that?
