4minute the 2NE1 Rip Offs

This is a relatively new girl group that is piggy backing off of the success of Korean hip hop girl group 2NE1. The song "Muzik" is catchy...and I probably will end up listening to it since at this point I am a K pop fiend, but its not quality. And on another note what the fuck is up with these K pop group names??? We have 2pm, 2am, 2NE1, 4minute and then all the strange names like Big Bang, Supernova, Wonder Girls, Super Junior...who the hell is naming these groups?! I can just imagine South Korean record executives sitting in a room with an English-Korean dictionary randomly combining English words and pop phrases until they find something "marketable." And that's how you get an idiotic name like "4minute" not even "4 minutes" no, just "4minute."

  1. All of a sudden K-Pop is...err, pop again. And in different countries too! I prefer Wonder Girls though. Girls Generation and Super Junior are just... too much. Too many members! >_<
