4Minute Cools Off from the Summer Heat in “Is It Popping?” MV

4Minute - Is It Popping

4Minute gets the party poppin’ in their latest MV!

On June 27th, 4Minute‘s official music video for “Is It Popping?“was released! “Is It Popping?” is a more subdued hip-hop version of the girls’ last hit single, “What’s Your Name?“. Both tracks were written and produced by well-known producer Brave Brothers, who has produced songs for numerous groups such as Sistar, U-Kiss, Jay Park, and more.

Is It Popping?” (also known by the title, “The Water’s Fine“), shows off 4Minute‘s playful side through their cute choreography and acting. The music video features the girls as they try to escape the rising heat of summer. While partying in a jungle-themed club, the girls cool off by playing around in a pool of water and dancing the night away under the activated sprinklers.

Check out the music video below!

[Videos] Jay Park Raps in English and in Korean for “Triangle Success Freestyle”

Jay Park
[Videos] Jay Park Raps in English and in Korean for “Triangle Success Freestyle”

Jay Park shared a video of his self written rap through his official jaybumaom0425 YouTube channel.

The black and white video was shot at the studio. “Triangle Success Freestyle” was produced by JAHLIL BEATS. Jay Park raps first in English and then in Korean, showing his impressive rap skills. He even briefly mentions PSY‘s “Gangnam Style.” This will be something a little different for K-pop listeners, since he is more known to the general public for his fresh vocals in songs like his recent “Joah.”

In his busy schedule Jay Park updates his YouTube channel with different episodes of “Jay Park TV,” which show behind the scenes footage of his recent projects. Recently, he announced several concert dates and his new Vine video account.

KPop Instagrams

Within the past few years, the internet has been the gateway that connected Kpop idols with their fans.

2EYES Tell Everyone They Want To Be Left Alone In “Don’t Mess With Me” [TEASER]

2eyeslogo

Fierce is the new black it seems. Or, rather, fierce is in black.

SidusHQ‘s new girl group 2EYES has released the teaser for their debut track Don’t Mess With Me and it seems like the five member group will debut with an extremely fierce concept, which has lately been extremely popular among idol groups. The short teaser doesn’t reveal much of the song or dance, but between the title and the short snippet of the girl’s singing it seems that it will be a powerful track. SidusHQ has lately been known for solo artists like Jay Park and Moon Hee-Joon, so it will be interesting to keep on eye on their first girl group in recent memory.

There isn’t any news on who the members are, but the song will be released on June 21st.

The Asian American designer made sure to bling out the Korean celebrities in his signature Jesus piece:

With the exception of Mina who just posed in the back mostly:

The Rooftop Prince OST Rocks!

by Sara A. Layne:

My current k-drama obsession is Rooftop Prince. I waited until the eight episodes were out before I started watching because I wanted to be able to do a marathon. I haven’t been this drawn into a drama since History of A Salaryman (and yes I realize that wasn’t that long ago). One of the main reasons why I like this drama so much is because of the music. Rooftop Prince has one of the best OST’s I have heard in a while. The title song, Happy Ending by Jay Park, is so upbeat and happy that I can’t help but smile every time I hear it.

Whenever there is an upbeat scene or when they decide to take one of their many pictures, you can beat on Happy Ending making an appearance. But just as every happy scene has me looking forward to hearing Jay Park’s voice, every sad or dramatic scene has me bracing myself for Ali’s Hurt. Be prepared to cry (or at least choke up) because Ali’s haunting voice combined with the drama unfolding on screen can cause almost cause you physical pain.

Rooftop Prince also scored a homerun with Baek Ji Young’s (who I like to call OST royalty) After A Long Time. When the characters start reflecting on the past is one of the times you hear this song or when they suddenly forget how to cross the street (watch a few episodes to understand what I mean). There are only a few episodes left and at this point, the music is almost as important as the story line. If you haven’t watched this drama yet, I urge you (PLEASE) watch it! I promise you won’t be disappointed. Let me know what you think of the drama and the rest of the OST in the comments ^_^
