Brown Eyed Girls give the gays everything they want with "Wonder woman"

Y'all remember the Brown Eyed Girls right? I mean, who can forget "Abracadabra". Well, they've made a comeback with a new album RE_vive and 2 lead songs, "Wonder woman" and "Abandoned". And bitch, these 2 songs could not be any fucking different in tone from one another.

Brown Eyed Girls: We want some gays in the music video.
The Director: How many?
Brown Eyed Girls: Yes naega.

Brown Eyed Girls always come a little different with their music videos and have an agenda to push. They'll always go places that other idol girl groups wouldn't dare. It's what makes them bad bitches. To have a music video full of queer performers and drag queens is an amazing thing for the Brown Eyed Girls to advocate in an industry and a country where homosexuality is still pretty closeted across the board. This is plain wild given how liberal male idols are when it comes to cross-dressing, rocking womenswear, wigs and wearing make-up.

I liked the song for what it was. But they forgot to give it a chorus. Because that 'thing' they think is a chorus, really ain't it. The song just feels like it's building to this big ol' chorus that's gonna pop-off and then...it doesn't. Then the song ends and you're just sat there like 'OH. So that thing right there was it? That was the chorus!?'


Brown Eyed Girls decided that they wanted to do a lil' suttin' for Halloween, so they gave us the Sleepy Hollow, Nightmare before Christmas type teas. But instead of going for something funky and fun in the vein of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" or SHINee's "Married to the music", they said 'Fuck a tempo and a beat' and served a full blown ballad with "Abandoned".

You cannot do any form of 1 step, 2 step, 3 step to this shit. Nothing. You can't even sway to this shit. So crowds gon' be dead stiff when they perform this on MNET, Inkigayo and the likes. It's a cool song though. And it's packaged so well with the video that it just works.

Brown Eyed Girls are out in these Seoul streets doing what the fuck they want and I am here for every piece of it. It's also a great message and sign to the younger groups that their careers can outlive the shelf life that is typically associated with idol girl groups. You can still put out great songs, assert sexiness, hold it down in a group and reach a point where you can do things on more of your own terms.
