True Artists ? Or idols ?

Dicatat oleh di
Now I don't fault anyone for liking any particular idol group or enjoying quality picture time with a specific idol. But when I read comment like the following it makes me sad and slightly disappointed in, well the 12 year old that wrote it.



As you can see this particular delusional fan truly and wholeheartedly believes that his/her beloved Big Bang are TRUE ARTISTS (as they so put). But then again this is just an example of many kiddies who've written a similar statements saying that their groups are true artists and NOT idols. I've seen this written for MBLAQ(especially during their recent release), Beast, 2NE1, BEG, Super Junior (I don't even understand who would even think about writing this about Super Junior), etc...

Now I'd just like to state one thing (this is my opinion anyways) if your favorite group was manufactured in a basement by a lecherous CEO for years and has very little or zero say in what they wear, how they act, what they sing and where they go than yes, they are in fact an idol group and no they are not TRUE ARTISTS.

I believe this will be my new pet peeve of 2012.

    Can we not even start this topic? Whether or not the claims are even true, the level of idiocy behind the basic premise gives me a headache.

    At the very least YG gives them some freedom to produce their own songs/music. SM and JYP on the other hand...

      Why do they need to have an interest in music? They just need to whore out to half assed tracks and still make heaps of money.

    As a Kamilia, Gyuri could have been an artist. Gyuri has rapping skills , as for the rest of Kara they are Idols.
    Sunny Hill i regard as Artists, well, It's pretty much Janghyun being an artist to promote the girls, who are talented.
    Yenny is kind of an artist, as she wrote some songs. And doesn't Yubin write the raps?

    But anyway, 2NE1, BigBang and the rest are idols. I bet their "input" in the songs aren't really listened to.

      Yeah, she first signed up to be the rapper of KARA.
      And she rapped for her radio thing.

    Bigbang started off as idols, but in the meantime they have a certain freedom to what they do. sungri, taeyang, gd and top were mostly free to do their own music throughout their solo activities.
    i still wouldnt consider them as true artists. but they are closer to it than most of the others.

    I hate Abracadabra, it made BEG look like whores. But at least they still produce and write their own songs. Well, Jea and Miryo do. I miss pre-Sound G days so fucking much.

    So true. That's why I prefer Jpop/rock, where bands writing and composing their own songs are more common than not (except for the Hello and AKB groups), while it's a rarity in Korea. When comments are filled with examples of the few who do compose their own songs, instead of the few who don't, it's sad.

    they're all controlled, but BIG BANG is controlled less. GD and TOP petitioned to YG to make their own album. Taeyang made it a point to participate in lyric writing and production in Solar. Daesung and Seung-ri don't do shit..but what are you gonna do..That's more shit than 95% of idols. That's more than Rihanna does.

    Relatively speaking, Big Bang does live music..compared to their idol counterparts..lmao
