Flowsik announces new material/mixtape

Flowsik posted a blog on myspace today announcing new upcoming music. Good to hear since he’s been sorta quiet since About That Money was released this past summer. Keep ya ears close to the ground!

To all that fans that’s been supporting:

The new mixtape is in the works, and will be released before the end of the year.  So please look out for that as it’ll be coming soon enough!

New music from the mixtape will be put out on Monday so check the page often!

Two Cents: YMGA needs to fire somebody

YMGA (Young Men Gangsta’s Association), YG Entertainment’s newest act, recently had it’s debut on SBS InkiGayo with their single Tell It To My Heart. They had a humorous faux pas involving some scrolling text displays and an unparsed repitition of their group name.

Maybe it’s me being immature but I think that’s pretty funny.

BoA’s US Video released

While BoA’s Asian Version of her single ‘Eat You Up’ was released last week, her US version has just been released as well.

It was directed by the famed Diane Martel.

My opinion? Blah. I’m really not that into the song or either version of the video. The productions values of the US video are questionable. It’s also pretty clear what angle they were going for… more close up’s of BoA’s face, more costume variety, urban back up dancers… still… I’m not sure this is going to turn out to be the breakout success everyone was hoping for.

BoA Eat You Up MV Released

So this is a day or so late, but in case you haven’t seen it yet…
FYI, it’s the asian version. It will probably be tweaked for the US release.

The song is OK at best. The dancing is pretty sharp, as always for BoA. I have absolutely no idea how well this will be received. If its anything like CoCo Lee’s debut in the late 90′s, this is not going to end well.

On another note, the video reminds me of other videos with dance audition scenes including that song from Flashdance, J. Lo’s I’m Glad (which was a nod to Flashdance anyway), Hyori & Eric’s Anymotion ad, and the falling books remind me H.O.T’s YulMutChuh!

Decipher releases new mixtape, new site

Decipher has just dropped a new mixtape entitled “The Best Things In Life Vol. 1″, free for download. The mixtape features Ailee, Jam EZ, Flowsik, Shogunna, Reign Era, and Johnny Phlo along with the hit street single “About That Money“.

Decipher is an incredible MC that rarely disappointments. I’ll have a review up later in the week but make sure you check it out.

Son Dambi to appear in US film “Hype Nation”

It’s been reported that KPOP singer Son Dambi has been attached to the US film “Hype Nation”. While she has yet to hit the “A-List” in Korea, her dancing abilities have given her the opportunity to have a role in a film centered around the very subject. Everything I’ve seen about the movie so far screams its going to be terrible.
