Graded Song: 4Minute "Is It Poppin'

Another K-Pop act riding on the coattails of the success of their 1st 2013 comeback. Earlier this week, we had Girl's Day declare that girls should be able to kiss first with "Female President" with their sexually suggestive video. This time, it's 4Minute. Back in late April, the group asked what's your name and while it's was a disappointing comeback single in my opinion, Korea seemed to think otherwise, giving them their first #1 single four weeks after its initial release. Now the girls are asking "Is It Poppin'" with their second comeback of the year. Cube enlisted the help of Brave Brothers again. Is it poppin' or is it floppin'? Seems like Brave Brothers is still serving up Sistar leftovers, as this sounds like a less bombastic version of "Lovin' U" and the instrumental gives us some hints Ellie Goulding's "Lights" and Sistar's "Shady Girl" it. Again, one of the members give us the saving grace moment. While it was Gayoon with the pre-chorus in "What's Your Name", it's HyunA's rapping section in this song. The chorus is also very nice, but not as catchy. It isn't any worse that "What's Your Name" but it isn't any better. Cube really needs to serve up some more "Volume Up" realness because these basic concepts can work for so long.
Final Grade:C+
The video shows the girl at a beach shack, having a party and some set dancing. The roof catches on fire and the sprinkler system gets them wet and they still continue to party. Jiyoon even shows Miley Cyrus how to actually twerk your booty.

Disclosure "F For You" Music Video

While I am still convinced that Disclosure's "F For You" is about one of the Lawrence brothers getting an unknown STD that begins with the letter F, that doesn't change the fact that it is still a tune that I can swing my hips to. With that in mind, they released a music video for it! It shows the brothers performing the song (which I was unaware that Howard Lawrence sang) with those creepy seizure inducing faces they are known for.

Graded Song: Girl's Day "Female President"

GIRL'S DAY COMEBACK!!! SO EXCITED!!! Yura, Sojin, Minah and Hyeri are back with their second comeback of 2013!!! They smashed back in March with "Expect" "Expectation" whatever-the-song was called and because of that success (I attribute the smexy suspenders dance) they decided to re-package the album with a new title track. From the teaser, "Female President" seems a lot more risque than their last comeback. Hmmm...catchy. A grower to be honest. We have Minah hitting dem high notes that only Minah knows how. The girls really allowed their vocals to shine on this track. Sojin's rap was pretty weak, even weaker than usual (Sorry Sojin I still love you!) While it isn't as catchy as their previous title track, I appreciate the fact that they decided to go for a different style of music (pop/rock with dance elements) rather playing it safe with another dance-pop tune.
Final Grade:B-
The girls are getting a lot of flack about the overt-sexual nature of the video, which shows A LOT (and I do me A LOT) more skin than "Expect" "Expectation" whatever the song was called. There was also the scene where Hyeri fed Minah that cupcake and they almost kissed (definte tease to gain interest people!) However, I feel like people shouldn't judge the song based upon that factor. I liked it, but I wouldn't want to be in a public place when I am watching it, you know to avoid people thinking I'm watching softcore porn or something.

Lorde "Tennis Court" Music Video

So this song isn't about gossiping about them gurls you hate at your school's tennis court? That what New Zealander Lorde is stating with the visuals for her second chart-topper, "Tennis Court." The video is rather interesting, with Lorde in dark, gothic makeup looking creepily at the camera, exept when the "yeahs" play and she opens her mouth. For now this is a good video, but I feel when she decides to release this internationally, there going to do another one to appeal to a wider audience.

Natalia Kills "Problem" Music Video

Natalia Kills has a serious "Problem" on her hands. The video for her single was due out this Monday, but somehow found its way to the internet two days earlier. The visuals though are pretty hot. Natalia werks in some pretty revealing outfits and gets down with the brown with a model-esque beau, all while creating some havok for shits and giggles. Miley wish she could be as ratchet as Natalia!!! Check the video below.

Dal Shabet "Be Ambitious"

That K-Pop group with the strange sounding Jewish name are back! Dal Shabet have made their comeback amongst the many girl groups this June and tell girls to "Be Ambitious" (or guys to look at their legs, depending on what language you speak). The song is standard Euro-pop dance pop fare, with an uneven sounding chorus and a 'flasher' dance in the video (that you should not replicate at home) as they vie for their respective guys attention. Isn't it refreshing to see many different guys in a video instead of just one for all the girls?

Miley Cyrus "We Can't Stop" Music Video

Miley Cyrus' comeback seems more like a huge ratchet-fest to be quite honest. Toady, she released the music video to her lackluster "We Can't Stop" single, which is just a clusterfuck of cliches and try hard antics that makes the singer look ridiculous than distancing herself from her Disney image. The singer wears a pair of fronts, attempts to twerk, smacks party goers butts (and shows many shots of hers), along with some doll on girl action in the pool. Billy Ray, control your "ratchet" daughter please.
