So I was looking under the comments section of CL's "Hello Bitches" because I was looking for a good laugh until I saw this shit:
No. Just no.
I've had this problem since SNSD came back and everyone was like "BOW DOWN TO YOUR QUEENS OF K-POP!"
It's like these people have no idea who BoA is — you know, the woman who actually made shit possible in k-pop. Compare that to what Hyuna and CL have done, and you should have a big clue as to whom the real Queen of K-Pop is.
I have nothing against CL and Hyuna, but it's obvious what they've done: read "Yoloswag For Dummies." Everything they've done is a textbook guide to how to appeal to people who follow trends. I'm not saying they don't work hard, but you could literally find CL and Hyuna's style in a million of other try-hard artists looking to make a quick buck.
BoA, on the other hand, has actually attempted to make her own unique style and image. Now, has BoA's style been done before? Probably. But it's rare you see a previous child star as successful and non-fucked up as BoA, who made her debut at 13.
What I find especially funny is when people call BoA "bland" when CL's and Hyuna's styles are way more common than BoA's, which in reality should make CL and Hyuna more bland. Or when people call Hyuna a slut and CL a tryhard, then jump to defend why the other is better. The only reason CL isn't called a slut is because of the pseudo-feminist mentality of her fans, even though CL pretty much does the exact same thing Hyuna does. And Hyuna doesn't get called a try-hard because her fans are all "Hyuna wants to act like this" when she pretty much does the exact same same thing as CL. Don't believe me? Read the lyrics to "Hello Bitches" and "Roll Deep," and tell me they aren't high on the "trying real hard" chain:
"Hello Bitches"
My hips are pang-pang-pang (very tight)
Boys ask Time time time
My lips are nyam-nyam-nyam (so tasty)
Where I go dang-dang-dang (I’m so proud)
When I get on stage cha-cha-cha (great)
Run run bang-bang-bang (Like I’m flying)
Disco pang-pang-pang

"Roll Deep"
There’s never anyone who doesn’t know me
Wherever I go, they wanna touch me
Look, this was always my swag
If you have a problem with that, just give them water1
Ok now good, yes good
(Queen’s back, if you don’t know, shh)
My scale is different, you can’t touch this
You’ve heard it, it’s Red
Even my friends get jealous of me, I know
I’m always alone here
On top of the chopping block, I know
Chew me up when I smile
I don’t care, I don’t care at all
I’m OK, my place is still the same
More jealousy and envy makes trouble, I know
Actually, a little dangerous
You and you, I am me, hey
Like this, like that, it doesn’t matter
You are you, I am me
Like this, like that, like this, like that
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all jealous
Baby I’m bad all day
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all envious
Sorry, I’m a dope girl
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
It’s because I’m the best
It’s because you’re not
The answer is simple
It’s because you don’t get attention
I’ve never had these four things:
Time, likeability2, fear, fat
I’m like a made-up character since I was born
People around me massage me with jealousy
Oh it’s still the same, she’s still the queen
I have everything but height
But they all open the door for me
They call me fake, saying I’ve never been real
But HyunA, who you can’t even hold hands with?
She’s like my sister to me
You and you, I am me, hey
Like this, like that, it doesn’t matter
You are you, I am me
Like this, like that, like this, like that
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all jealous
Baby I’m bad all day
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all envious
Sorry, I’m a dope girl
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
I don’t care, I don’t care at all
I’m OK, my place is still the same
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Like this, like that, like this, like that
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all jealous
Baby I’m bad all day
It’s all because I’m the best
It’s because I’m pretty
It’s because they’re all envious
Sorry, I’m a dope girl
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Ok now good, yes good
You can’t touch me Don’t touch me
Pretty fucking high if you ask me.
So no. Neither CL or Hyuna are the queens of k-pop. To be honest, CL isn't even focused on Korea at all, so I don't think she cares. And Hyuna's at the point where she knows she can literally put out 5 minutes of her having massive diarrhea with a video to match and her fans would go "YAASSSS SLAAAAYYY!!!!" So let's keep the title of "The Queen of K-Pop" to whom it really belongs: BoA.
An infinitely better song than "Roll Deep" and "Hello Bitches" could ever wish to be.
