BIG AS HELL NEWS!
ok if ya'll haven't already seen the entry omona posted yesterday u are SOOO left out!
here's basically what it said:
The boys are currently in America to film music videos for their next studio album, but while they’re in town, they’ll be meeting with big name US producers to discuss creating music together, and also to discuss “their direction and strategy of advancing into the America market.”
The president of their label YG Entertainment says: “We have been actively supporting the collaboration between our artists and the overseas producers, there are many American Hip Hop musicians who like BIGBANG and 2NE1. I have also been taking advice from them.”
BIGBANG’s labelmates 2NE1 already have a deal in place to debut in America under Will.i.am, and just this week Black Eyed Peas producer DJ Poet flew over to Korea to work on music for the girls. BIGBANG originally had tentative plans to advance into America a couple of years ago, but for whatever reason it never happened.
Still, BIGBANG have received some early interest from the States: Producer Diplo recently worked with BIGBANG sub-unit GD&TOP on their solo album, and took to his personal blog to call the pair his “favorite new rappers”, and to further praise K-Pop and it’s growing influence, stating that the styling is much better than US rap. Also, when member Taeyang released his solo album last year, it hit No.1 on iTunes R&B Canada, and No.2 on the iTunes R&B in the US with no promotion - a first for an Asian artist.
and then there's this amazing pic that Omona just posted today!
