Top K-pop Rappers: Female Edition

Indeed, K-Pop is everywhere. Although most South Korean singers and bands have not yet entered the international music scene fully and became successful like Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, and many more, they may be in a few years or so.

And since we are talking about the K-Pop phenomenon that's been hitting some countries all over the world like Japan and Paris, let's talk about our talented singers and who do we think are the best female rappers out there. It's not all about the looks that's needed in this entertainment industry, you really got to have the talent to charm the audience. Because if not, the fans would be the first to criticize you and your performance everytime you do bad.

Onto our list of the best female K-Pop rappers, CL of 2NE1 made it to our list. Being the leader of 2NE1, she took the full responsibility of working with the company for their group's songs, concept, and everything. Most pop group leaders take this responsibility and CL is definitely doing a great job. Her rapping skills are quite good for a female and she can even sing really well.

Next, Yubin has recently been busy promoting their new single “Like This” with the rest of the girls of Wonder Girls. She was not in the original line-up of the group but because of Hyuna's (4Minute) withdrawal from the group, it paved the way for her inclusion. And now looking at her and her rapping skills, she seems to be a good replacement.

Bora of SISTAR is quite good especially with all that dancing and projection on their stage performances. Possessing a pretty face and a beautiful body, she could pass as an actress. But as a rapper, she is doing just great. Watch her rap in most of their songs and you'll be smitten as well.

And last but not the least, Sunny Hill's youngest member Kota made it to our list as a female rappers who continues to make waves because of their incredible rapping skills. As one of the lead vocalist, dancer, and rapper of the group, Kota is simply exceptional and talented.

There are far more rappers waiting to be discovered out there. Maybe it's you so why don't you take a time out from doing paper writing services and test your rapping skills?  

Favorite Korean Boy Band of the Day: SHINee

In my previous posts, I have been very vocal about my support and love for K-Pop. However, I still fully support most American singers like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, Jessie J., Maroon 5, and many more. But how can you not love these K-Pop singers and band when they all look cute and funny at the same time?

Let's start with one of the fast-rising and established K-Pop boy bands in South Korea, SHINee. SHINee or simply Shinee is a five-member boy band managed by SM Entertainment. The members include Onew as the leader, Jonghyun, Key, Minho, and Taemin. Here are the pictures in order so you can follow. Don't you just find them adorable?

Anyway, the group had been training at SM Entertainment for years before they debuted on May 25, 2008 with a hit single “Replay.” Most of the members were still students back then but Taemin (the youngest) already graduated last February 2012. Since their debut in 2008, the group received the much-needed media attention and even won the adoration of fans for not just being guys with the looks but guys with the looks and the talents.

In various articles and research paper I have read regarding the group, fans all over the world are sure that the group would attain more success and popularity especially when they're expanding to Japanese territory. With hit singles and charming personalities, SHINee can do and achieve just about everything they want.

Here are some music videos of SHINee:
