Why them over other groups? Is this like when the had the big reggaeton wave in the early to mid 2000s?

Why no female groups, too “cutesy” and “childish”?

  • Their music goes beyond the niche feel of kpop
  • Sex appeal for the ladies
  • Almost equivalent to what Americans listen to nowadays
  • All of the above
Its unfortunate because there's a lot of kpop groups and singers that run laps around those dudes:ehh:

Sex appeal for the ladies :dahell:, they rock that pretty boy with anime hair fashion that's not exactly popping over here in the states.

I don't really see how it's in tune with the trap wave, but I guess it's not that bubble gum but I'm not seeing it :yeshrug:


I've seen other people say they popped off internationally because they are heavy with the social media presence.

I thought that Jay park would be getting that push

I thought that Jay park would be getting that push especially since that Roc Nation deal.
