- Hi I'm Babi Dewet - And I'm Pedro Bricio
And we're here today on a new and temporary Fantastic Baby scenary!
As you can see it changed a lot... But that's not gonna be the final one. We're building the new one and it is coming soon.
- But since today's a different video... A special one - A Special one
And today we'll be doing our 2nd video reaction with CL's 1st solo MV, The Baddest Female.
That's right. CL, for those who don't know, is a part of YG Entertainment's 2NE1.
YG is also the home of BigBang and 1TYM, for example.
Some other 2NE1 girls had their solo debuts, and that's CL's first time doing something "just her".
- And we're really excited, we ran from spoilers... - We spent all day trying not to read a thing
So that's it, let's watch it!
What if I don't like it?
Someone said on twitter that I will like it. Let's see, hope so.
It starts like a HipHop video, with a fancy car...
It starts CL style... Really... Powerful.
- I hate this... thing. That golden teeth thing. - Teeth...
It's corny.
It's a vampire one!
The background looks like... One of a Kind? Looks like GDragon's album art.
- They're playing hopscotch? - It reminds me of a song...
- What was that? hopscotch? - Yeah it looked like that. It's the Korean version! It shines...
Yeah... There's the middle...
The song's not really catchy... So far I didn't felt like...
CL, as always, wearing the radical outfits.
- That mustache looks really good. - Yeah!
Look at her pirate style, how fancy!
It looks like the song style... Really. She's really the baddest female.
Look at the featured artists! Well done, CL! There's the whole YG!
This outfit is really cool, the hair...
- GDragon! - GDragon!
Adidas merchandising
Look at this awesome scene!
I conquered the world, you know...
It's showing everybody who is dancer or rapper on YG.
I want one of those pants!
There's even a tail!
- I like the belt. The belt is... - So, is it over?
Yes. And it already has a million views.
It's over. It didn't even wait for me to get used to the song.
- Let's talk about the song first. - Kinda raw, it missed something a little... The edge of it.
- I thought it was kinda regular. Simple, that's the word. - Simple. I didn't had something like "whoa"
Even the dubstep was simple. It is usually really crazy, hers was like...
It was something secure. Let's put CL singing and talking and doing a simple rap, something secure, that will work and stuff.
- Let's not do something risky. - Yeah. There was nothing exotic or innovative.
- I want more, CL! It looks small but there's 4 minutes of video. - It was really linear... The song kept a line...
It looked a little like a bit of "One of a Kind", you know? I kept this in mind.
- No? - I think they put that in your head.
I thought it was really different. The song is regular, but the video is really good.
Really cool, her outfits are sensational, we can't even deny that. All CL's wardrobe... The featurings are amazing.
I thought it should have more of that moment with everybody dancing and interacting. There was Teddy, the producer and stuff...
It could've the 2NE1 girls... Like special featuring, but the song has nothing to do with them 'cause that's CL's solo.
We gotta concentrate on that. CL is one of the best Kpop rappers. Nobody can deny that, she is awesome and do a very cool hip hop.
And I think she did that. She kept the hip hop on her song. It's not "pop", I thought it was really hip hop.
Yeah, it was really hip hop. But the video... I thought it was really her. Powerful, "I'm the baddest female".
Yeah... It was something visual. It's her on that side, because CL... We know she's a great artist but 60% of her is visual.
CL has this thing. And that's fantastic, it's really cool. And on I'm the Best we can see her carrying the belt,
being the winner, and showing that she is the powerful, and I think the video was sort of a continuation of that
She starts the video saying "I'm powerful, I'm that, I'm the baddest female" And she has a dance moment... That she's looking pretty
And is always on hiphop, doing that thing... When she's like being that punk queen...
The best women of all.
- So... I thought it was really her. - Obviously we'll not be "Oh, I was expecting more" because actually
I didn't even know what to expect. I wanted to see something really hip hop, because I think she likes it a lot and deserved it.
But let's not get into this thing because it was really cool, I thought she still has a lot to grow, her other songs might be as great, we're waiting
And I guess that's it. I think I missed some concistency, some more power...
Yeah... The song was really plain. All the time, right? Even the dubstep, there wasn't that "wow" moment.
- It would be 100% if there was this super power moment. - The video was great, but I think the song could be better.
Yeah, I guess that's it. When the video ended I said 'Is it over?' because I was missing something in the music.
I thought the song would have something more to give.
But being CL, we thought it would have something really strong.
- That would hit us in the face. - That hit in the face. But the song was light.
Was secure. That's the word for her song. Security.
They followed a line that Ted knew how to produce, he did it with GDragon... And stuff, so I thought it was safe.
- The video was awesome. - The video hit us everywhere. The video rocked.
- So that's it right? - I want all her outfits...
So leave a comment telling us what do you think of CL's solo, if you liked the song and video as we did,
What were you expecting of this solo... And leave your opinion so we can chat a little, ok?
- So, watch here our first reaction... I got a boy by Girls Generation! - And it's important to say that usually if we do a special video for
one specific MV, we avoid talking about it some other times, so it wouldn't be boring. Obviosly we'll have to say something some other times...
But only if it's something really personal, we try to avoid because we did something of that video, ok?
But we hope to talk a lot about CL. So, CL... We're waiting for more videos, songs... And Ted, get out of your comfort zone!
- Look... Here's Teddy! - I'm talking about YG's Ted.
So that's it guys. We hope you like your new scenary and understand any troubles we might have...
We're trying to do the best for you. So, don't forget to like, share and don't forget to subscribe to our channel!
- Because there's a lot of new things coming! - Yeah, a lot of new things!
