UNIVERSAL MUSIC & CUBE unite for ‘TROUBLE MAKER’ mini album. NEW release of duo unit HyunA&Hyun Seung.
“The more it’s forbidden, the more we’re excited! … Something well mannered, decent, predictable is the last thing on their mind.”
HyunA is so better of as a solo artist or collaborating with others than being in that boring girl band 4 minute. She has so much charisma and bad ass sassyness and letting her see waste in a girl group doesn’t bring out her trueself. Hyun Seung unleashing a different side of him and collaborating with HyunA also benefits his career because lets be honest he is the most boring member of b2st compare to the others. Besides being an ex BIGBANG member losing to DaeSung in the reality docu audition i seriously thnk this is a very smart move to make an ordinary boy band member into a much talk about artist.
That MNET mama award kiss was a one of a kind on an Asian world stage i mean its not Lee Hyori and T.O.P at the 2008 Mnet but you got to admit it was dam right smexy and was pretty much the highlight of the show in terms of being the most talked about in gossip columns for days.
As for this new track ‘TROUBLEMAKER’ i must say that whistleblowing is super addictive. Its an easy listening up-tempo track with so much funk even JT needs to take a rain check. CUBE makes good urban swaggy sounds; it doesn’t go all military pop unlike the robotic tunes of SM TOWN. It keeps manufactured at an acceptable level. Auto tune minimal and maximise the smexyness while still wearing nice cutted clothes. HyunA is a classy girl until she Bubble Pops.
Iam still not sure what the ‘TROUBLE MAKER’ narrative is going on about. I mean at the MNET award we saw HyunA in a hot red dress dying in a blood splattered room . Suddenly she gets resurrected from the graveyard and making out with the androynous eyeliner overdosed Hyun Seung on stage.
This music video is well crafted but still looks like a mish mash of seductive posing hanks to HyunA and cuts to dancing rooms and more posing and in the end they try to kill eachother? Its HOT but it doesnt make sense. From the tease pics with champagne popping glasses we all thought the video was going all GD &TOP party anthem inside a club. But of course teaser pics will never be an accurate reading of what to expect in the final product.
Overall love the music like the video! A refreshing pop track that could do wonders on the charts.
PS: the 2nd track on the EP
不想聽到我 듣기 싫은 말 ’Don’t want to hear’ is super good! A highlight of the 4 track EP. Emotional uptempo ballad! MUST LISTEN!
