Music video: 2NE1 shoot a video on an iPhone and act ratchet at home in "Do you love me"

Dara should be grateful to Yang Hyun-suk and she owes some bigs wigs on the 23rd floor of YG entertainment headquarters some serious head. That bomb 'Oh shit, I just witnessed the creation of the solar system in flashback' head. Because this video is the best thing to happen to her since Cass beer cut her a cheque and set her loose solo with "Kiss". This video made her look really relevant in ways very few none of 2NE1's other videos have. It's just as well in this case, because she has NO presence on this song.

Dara has always been the most photogenic out of the group (ya'll know she's the prettiest member) and the one with the most likeable personality (Sandara keep the party poppin' on me2day). She stole the show in this video, despite CL's constant attempts to get all up in her shots, splash water in her face and tell a bitch to stop her Liu Kang bicycle kick impression on the bathroom window sill.

I have nothing to say about this song other than it's rubbish. If FAKY would like to step in and deliver me what these girls are failing to, then I won't be mad at that. And in answer to 2NE1's question: No. I don't love you. Not any more.

Ailee calmly sings hoes under a Seoul tram in her comeback performance of "U&I"

The best vocalist in K-Pop made her comeback on M! Countdown with her new song "U&I" - sounding like a Rich Harrison joint with a catchy horn sectioned riff and sassy neck snapping lyrics that disco diva bitches would snatch for.

Ailee struts onto the stage calmy with poise and sophistication and shows lesser broads in 3 minutes how you give strong vocals without screaming all over a beat and dance a routine without so much as a pussy pop. Beyoncé best sit her ass down and watch this shit. I've seen those Miss Carter World show performances of "Crazy in love". A n***a couldn't even hear the music through all of the screaming. And I was exposed to more pussy than the midwife caught at the birth of Blue Ivy.

The thing with Ailee is that when all else fails, the vocals never do. The song could be a hot mess and her outfit could look like something Tina Knowles stitched together with a fractured wrist, but the vocals stay on point.

Now if Ailee could whip on some Kenzo and do me a cover of Beyoncé's "Grown woman", that'd be great.

Music video: 2NE1 - Falling in love

The bitches that everybody once loved and is now sick to the back teeth of are back with their long awaited comeback "Falling in love". All this song does is cement for me is that 2NE1 as a group are not relevant. YG needs to cut Bom and Dara's cheques and just focus on CL and Minzy, because they are the only 2 members of the group worth a won. What exactly did Dara's Gwen Stefani, Tragic Kingdom looking ass self contribute to this song or video? And why does Bom looks like a female CG render from the Tekken 2 character select screen?

"Falling in love" is a nice song. I like that Teddy Park avoided drowning these girls in EDM or running them over with a Hummer truck with some faux hood nonsense. But let's all be real. Nobody is going to remember this song in a week. 2NE1 can perform this shit day and night on Inkigayo and have Yang Hyun-suk project the video 24 hours a day on the side of the YG HQ building and still, nobody will remember a thing about this song.

Music video: BoA - Tail of hope

BoA's 34th Japanese single is an anthem for chasing dreams (♪ Catch di tail of hope ♪) or giving head (♪ Kiss di tail of hope ♪) depending on your preference.

"Tail of hope" is a nice song, but the childishly protective Crystal Kay lover in me couldn't help but roll its eyes and mutter 'Bitch copied Crystal Kay's Vivid swag'. Then my mind was consumed with thoughts of 'Crystal would have made me like this song', which is what I've begun to tell myself every time I hear a song from J-Pop / J-R&B chicks who sing badly over good beats. And now I'm mad that Universal didn't throw some dollar at Crystal to shoot a video for "My heart beat".

*sits in a moment of silence*

This video is your obligatory Summer J-Pop video; all of which seem to be shot with the same filters, alongside the same beach, with a drive along the same roads and a walk through the same parks. We've reached a point where we could play location SNAP! with these J-Pop videos. I think every location in Japan has been shot at some point, which is probably why hoes are flying out to Amelica to shoot videos now.

BoA's different approach to her singles in both Korea and Japan lately is refreshing to hear, even if I'm not in love with the songs. I will never put "Tail of hope" on my iPod or crank it up loud, because I value my ears and there's only so much of her paper shredding sounding ass vocals I can take. But I like that BoA seems to have found a sound and sweet spot for herself on her own terms since Identity. She's finally taking the reigns of her own career, which is what fans had been wanting her to do for years.

Music video: CL - The baddest female

When news broke that CL was planning to drop the inevitable solo album, I for one was hardly excited. We all knew what CL's album was going to sound like before she did; which is essentially a bunch of 2NE1 songs without Bom trying to sell her 2 lines worth of vocals, Dara delivering a verse that nobody cares about and CL filling in the swag crater left by Minzy.

"The baddest female" is exactly what we all expected from CL. This isn't what is disappointing about the song. What's disappointing about the song is that it's utter shit. The only thing which saves this whole mess is CL's swag in the music video, which is just plain stupid now. The girl sells every single ridiculous look in this video and makes each of them work in a way few bitches could and your fave wishes. 

O hai Mademoiselle Yulia! It was nice of you to make a cameo in this music video, even though hardly anybody will know who the hell you is. Now, if you could high-tail your green and black dip dyed wig into the studio and give me another album, that'd be super! My body is ready for a follow up to Mademoworld.

Music video: Lee Hyori - Miss Korea

What I initially thought was Lee Hyori being ballsy and proclaiming to every woman in South Korea to take a seat, is actually a declaration of how stupid ideals of beauty are. Easy to say when you look as hot as Lee Hyori does. But shade aside, "Miss Korea" is a great song, with an equally great video. It'd be easy for Hyori to do another "Chitty chitty bang bang", but instead she's giving us substance and leaving all that vacuous shit to the younger girls.

Lee Hyori's vocals leave A LOT to be desired. There are many women in K-Pop who could have sung this better. The 60's vibe is right up the Wonder girls street and they'd already done this whole black and white thing for "Be my baby". And Ga-In is a chick who comes to mind as somebody who would have killed this song and video. But credit where it's due, Hyori does a good job. Let's see how long it takes before a plagiarism claim comes out of the woodwork. Or VOGUE and fashion houses order a cease and desist of the video because  of unlicensed use of their logos.
