K-Pop Ranter

Review: WASSUP WASSUP

Posted by : KimAngie August 08, 2013

The somewhat highly anticipated twerking girl-group, WASSUP, has debuted with- oh my gosh- WASSUP...and it was a complete disaster. Watch the video below.

The video - I had to pause in the middle to regain the conscious I had lost due to secondhand embarrassment. It takes place in a basketball court and the girls? They're surrounded by men... who don't seem to be having nothing but forced fun. Oh and there's also that one white dude there, yeah...hip hop and west-style, yo. Not to mention, the video had a bit of an awkward feel due to some of the members looking like they feel uncomfortable and rather be at school (yeah, it's that bad), except maybe the girl with pink hair, the gray leggings and yellow crop top.

3 years of training for what?

All this was, was a torture device for the female-- and maybe even male as well-- population, with only zooming in on their asses, terrible effects, and equally terrible editing.

Hippity-hop.

The song on the other hand? ... It was also unpleasant. Aside from the semi-catchy 'Hindeul hindeul~' phrase in the chorus, everything else was awful. The 'hahaha' part really got to my nerves... anyone else? It just seemed so off as if they ran out of lyrics and just decided to put that in instead. You don't have to tell me to say 'hahaha', WASSUP-- I was already doing it.

...

Dance? What dance? Oh, the twerking? That was twerking? The video barely gives you any time to even have a grasp of their dancing abilities. I really feel bad for the pink hair girl especially... she seems to be a good dancer but this concept...just won't let her showcase her skills.

I was hoping that this group would actually bring something different to the k-pop 'hip-hop' concept rather than the artificial and prettified one that has been inaugurated over the past decade, only to be left with utmost disappointment. Even CL did better, c'mon WASSUP.
