GURL U SO BAD
So the baddest chick in Korea has finally made her solo debut and makes us "Do the Unnie".
First things off, I love the video, it reminds me of G-Dragon's "One of a Kind" with her backup dancers and the cross dressing. CL is the female counterpart of GD, all she needs now are t-shirts with "Do the Unnie" printed on them, et voila!
The latter part of the video has a nineties or holiday feel to it, and I like seeing CL around children, it's like the baddest female in Korea has a soft spot and shows a contrast from the CL we saw in the earlier part of the video when she bares golden fangs. I like that she's able to show herself in her music video, even with the many comparisons you can make with "One of A Kind".
The styling is colourful and of course, with a lot of Chrome Hearts jewellery and Jeremy Scott goods, I mean, how can she not have that, she's his muse! On a side note, there are cameos by Taeyang and GD (both with bad hair), why is GD not wearing any pants?
Though I may love the video, the song isn't what I expected from one of the best female rappers in Korea. Whilst some bits are definitely catchy, especially when we have to get down and do the unnie, I feel that this isn't up there with her releases with 2NE1 or with the releases of the YG Family. With a song that claims to define the "Baddest Female", CL definitely should've had a song that was stronger and more in-your-face.
Nevertheless, do the unnie, hey, do the unnie~
Hey Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI just followed your blog and I would love it if you could check out mine as well. I also did a review of CL's new song but not the music video. I agree with you and though the music video was pretty cool but the song didn't blow me away. I hope you can follow me back.
Love from,
