Bad Boys, Let Me Be Your Good Girl

Papa YG must be extremely happy in his home life lately to give us two new music videos from BIGBANG in one week. This coming from the man who likes to troll us fangirls and fanboys and smack us right back into our place.

"Bad Boy" is amazing. Simply put.


I really love the beat of the song. It's very different from any other, not only K-Pop song, but also for BIGBANG. You can't help but dance when you listen to it, whether you're dancing well or like a fool, it just has this great flow to it. I love the raps in it, I love the vocals. It's just perfect from beginning to end.


I fell in love with this song when the teaser came out for it, with G-Dragon in the studio just chilling and just being his cocky-self. 

So when the video came out I knew that I was going to love it. I tried my best to hold off judgement of what they were wearing when the behind the scenes paparazzi-esque video came out (that lasted two seconds before I took to Twitter), but I was waiting to see what it all looked like pieced together in the video.


And surprisingly, no real complaints ... obviously aside from GD's Marilyn Manson hair, Taeyang's spray painted polka dot jeans and ugly ass hobo hat ... no complaints.

There's my bb. There he is, leaning up against that corner, looking like a true New Yorker bad boy street thug, with that one-third aviator, one-third boy scout, and one-third muppet jacket. You lookin' good, GD. 

In all seriousness, when they featured GD on the left side of his face, I went batshit crazy over how flawless he really is. Whenever the wind blew and let that ... thing be seen on camera, then it was like someone threw me off the Titanic and into the ocean and it kind of killed it for me. So for the rest of this post, we will forget about the comb-over abomination that is weaved into GD's scalp and only focus on the left side.


One thing I did have a problem with is that the girls in the video were super boring and showed zero emotion. Like, if you really don't want this guy who is singing that he's sorry he's a bad boy hanging all over you, you're not going to just shrug your shoulders to get him off you. No, you're going to look pissed, you're going to storm off, you're going to possibly take out the pepper spray in your purse and use it on him if he doesn't get the hint. 

Not that I advocate pepper spraying Daesung in the face, but you get the point. 


Papa YG, so glad that you got more than one girl for the group this time around (unlike "Blue" and every other BIGBANG video before it) but next video can we please work on not having zombie models in your video? Throw in some eye rolls, some looks of disgust, some head turning or SOMETHING other than a lame half-hearted push.


By the way, I see Tae-Tae likes them young. (Good thing I'm younger than him ... by two months).

GIRL FROM THE "BLUE" VIDEO. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE PUSHING AWAY FROM YOU?! So unworthy to be in that fine man's presence.

DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE WALKING AWAY FROM, MOTORCYCLE PATCHWORK JEANS GIRL? YOU ARE WALKING AWAY FROM THE OFFICIAL PIMP T.O.P, AND THAT IS A NAME THAT HE GAVE HIMSELF BECAUSE IT'S THE TRUTH. IF T.O.P WITH BLUE HAIR OR RED HAIR OR FUCK EVEN IF HE IS BALD, WANTS YOU, YOU GROVEL AT HIS FEET AND SAY THANK YOU AND FEEL BLESSED THAT HE IS EVEN LETTING YOU BREATHE THE SAME AIR AS HIM. YOU DO NOT WALK AWAY FROM THIS PERFECT MAN.

Flawless.


I have a feeling I will fangirl attack him during their world tour. 

Seungri looks really awesome, once again. I am loving this look on him and I firmly believe it needs to stay. He really came into his own these past two videos and I am super excited about  what he will have to offer in the future. 

And does anyone else think Taeyang would look hot with a tattoo? Not to Jay Park extremes, but like maybe one on his back or like on the side of his rib cage? Mmmm.

I'm Definitely Not Singing the Blues

They're baaaaaaack!!


Aren't you all totally excited for the long awaited comeback of the one and only, gloriously sexy and amazingly talented, BIGBANG? 


EXCITED DOES NOT EVEN BEGIN TO EMPHASIZE WHAT I AM FEELING AND HOW I FELT AFTER WATCHING THEIR NEW VIDEO.


I will admit, like majority of you ... I was put off and somewhat angry at their "concept," or whatever the hell that emo-mess is that G-Dragon is calling hair (totally different subject matter that I will get to later in the post). But I've watched "Blue" about fifty times already, and it is just flawless and it makes me do a little dance in this chair as I type up this post. There will be giddiness and spazzing, as a forewarning, so if you ... say, I don't know ... dislike BIGBANG ... then you probably shouldn't read further because everything I say will be obnoxious from here on out.


The song is essentially about a really bad break up and the depression you feel after it, feeling like you'll never love again, you're destined to be alone and that your heart is "dyed blue" from sadness. During T.O.P's part, he says (according to the subs I found which can only be reliable to an extent) "It's no big deal, I don't care. Inevitable wandering, people come and go." For anyone who has had a bad break up, you know there is that point where you lie to yourself in order to make you feel like you're moving on. It's no big deal, I'll find someone else that is better, I don't care about him/her anymore, etc ... It's a simple line, but I really like it because it is part of the "break up cycle" people go through.


I get why the girl "vanishes" throughout the video. They're "blue" with depression over no longer having this girl in their life, and so they "see" her in the most obscure places or places they used to go. When Seungri is in the driver's seat and looks at the empty passenger seat ... we know it's empty, and he knows it's empty, but that longing and pain his heart feels "tricks" his mind into seeing her. It's more of a desperation and somewhat of a haunting aspect of it. You're forever haunted by the love you lost ... that's some really deep meaning to a music video.


I do not, however, understand why they insist on having one girl for the entire group. Would it really kill them to find four other girls, so the group's name doesn't take on a whole new meaning? (Think about it). Papa YG ... ONE GIRL PER MEMBER. And if you're stuck on who to pick for the next video, my contact information is at the top of the page. 


With the style, it's hit and miss for me. Surprisingly, the one that I felt was the most put together and the most "DAMN" worthy ... was actually Seungri. I know! I KNOW! I've never ever said that, but he stole all of my attention. And I have to say ... it's about damn time this man stepped it up. I knew he had in him, but his cockiness and arrogance always covered it up to make him seem like a kid trying too hard. But now? Oh, he's matured and that cockiness turned into confidence.

And it definitely shows. From now on, you are no longer a kid in my eyes, Seungri. You're a man now. Keep it up. (Oh and thank you for finally showing those abs. It took about two years of me complaining, but I'm glad someone else thought it was about damn time).


At first when I heard that Daesung was blonde, I was wary. I do not like any other man besides G-Dragon to be that unnaturally blonde. 

But he actually looks really good for some reason. I think it could have been a little bit darker, more of like a golden blonde, dirty blonde color rather than Valley Girl tanorexic blonde ... but it still suits him very nicely and that was a big risk that thankfully turned out to be the right decision.


T.O.P is just flawless.

This needs no further explanation.


G-Dragon ... for the love of all things holy ... what ... really?

I will take this over The Cure hair any day, but still this is not your best, boo boo. You've had so many looks it's hard for me to pinpoint my absolute favorite. Actually, no ... that is a complete lie. My favorite look was when you went back to black and had it all cockatoo looking at the MAMA awards. You know ... when you split your pants. That's my favorite look. Can we bring that back please? I just don't like that synthetic looking hair clip thing you have as bangs under that hat. Unless that is your real hair, in which case, we need to stop dying it before you go bald. 


And while that ugly ass hat is mentioned, I feel like I need to take a time out from talking about the video to address the horrible trend that is going around. THOSE DAMN HATS ARE STUPID AND IF YOU WEAR IT LIKE THAT, WITH ALL THAT SPACE IN THE FABRIC ON TOP OF YOUR HEAD YOU LOOK LIKE A HOMELESS MAN. STOP LOOKING LIKE A DAMN HOBO AND PULL IT DOWN ALREADY. GD DID THIS, TAE DID THIS, AND APPARENTLY IT'S THE "STYLE" NOW FOR GUYS ALL OVER THE WORLD TO LOOK LIKE A FUCKING BUM. STOP IT. STOP IT NOW. YOU ARE TWO OF THE RICHEST MEN IN SOUTH KOREA, THERE IS NO NEED TO LOOK LIKE YOU SLEPT ON A PARK BENCH WITH A NEWSPAPER BLANKET. CUT IT THE FUCK OUT NOW.


I hate those stupid ass, ugly hats.


Taeyang ... oh, I saved you for last for a reason, boo. You have two looks in this video: amazing and awful.

This is the amazing one. Absolute perfection, no complaints, I would bow down and worship at your feet with this look. 

This monstrosity, on the other hand ... who dressed you? I know this isn't 100% your fault (at least I am hoping it isn't) but what stylist in their right mind looked at this put together and said, "This looks great!" I mean, seriously ... I can't tell if it is zebra print or just abstract shapes on your pants, but a good rule of thumb is if you can't tell what it is, it probably shouldn't be worn, and an ever better rule of thumb is if it is zebra print on a grown man's pants, it should be burned. Seriously, Tae ... my three-year-old niece has zebra leggings and they look like that. That's so bad. 


And I know this isn't your fault, but dude you have to learn to say NO sometimes. Everything else is fine with what you're wearing except those damn pants. I am absolutely positive that if you had switched those pants out with white pants, you'd look amazing. In fact, if you or one of your stylists or anyone who knows you is reading this, put Tae in the same damn outfit with white pants, or hey even a dark denim, and it will be astronomically better than what was worn in the video. That's how strongly I feel about it, if I measure it in astronomical terms. 


That took a little longer than I thought it would ...


Few other quick little things that should have been done in a better way:

1. Tae has acne problems. We all know this. Those pesky little buggers like to stay on that beautiful jaw line. Lighting is so crucial sometimes, and the way the camera was angled, plus the lighting, you can really see the acne bumps and scars on his skin. It should have been caught and either left out of the video or re-filmed if need be. (You might not be able to see it in the above picture, but it is very noticeable in HD when you watch the video).

2. No one should ever let this man run in a music video. Ever.

Seriously, ever.

3. The "pants" that are running in the video belong to the girl, not Seungri. Every time they show the girl, the coloring of the film is different, very grainy too. I don't know why they didn't have Seungri run in the video. Maybe he runs worse than Tae.


One more thing I feel the need to address, as I have not yet fully expressed my thoughts on the subject matter ...


BIGBANG IS HAVING A WORLD TOUR. BIGBANG IS COMING TO AMERICA. I WILL SEE BIGBANG IN PERSON. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD.


That means fives things:


1. G-Dragon, black cockatoo hair.
2. Taeyang, fitted hats.
3. Seungri, show your abs.
4. Daesung, smile that beautiful smile.
5. T.O.P, just show up.


I'm coming for you, boys. Get ready.
