G-Dragon + Missy Elliott

With the announcement that Missy Elliott will be performing alongside K-Pop’s biggest names atKCON 2013 later this month, so many fans are eager to see what is in store.

Earlier in the year she and G-Dragon confirmed that they had collaborated for some tracks on the Big Bang leader’s upcoming solo album.

Elliott, too, has a new album in the works, her first since 2005, and while not yet confirmed, there is some speculation that we will be hearing G-Dragon featured in at least one song.

Therefore, this is a very special edition of Fantasy K-Pop Collab – the collaboration between G-Dragon and Missy Elliott is not wishful thinking, but something very real and soon to be unveiled.

G-Dragon has made a name for himself not only as the frontman for the very popular group Big Bang, but as an composer, lyricist, and producer in addition to his own solo activities as a rapper.

He embodies swag in every sense of the word, a complete original who rarely holds back and has set himself apart as a true one-of-a-kind star in the Korean music industry.

Missy Elliott not only is the first and only female rapper to have six platinum albums, but she was on the forefront of the modern hip-hop movement in America.

An original performer with a unique style that is all her own, Elliott has won the praise of critics and millions of fans around the world.

With five Grammy’s under her belt, and a long list of production credits to her name, Elliot has had an formative role in shaping the US music industry as we know it today – much like her Korean counterpart has done with K-Pop in the past several years.

The collaborative effort between the two is expected to be explosive, and while we have no idea just yet what the two have come up with, it is sure to be completely original and a game-changer for K-Pop in the global market.

The energy, lyrical delivery, and incorporation of elements from other genres is what G-Dragon brings to the table.Couple that with Elliott’s proven track record of producing solid R&B and hip-hop tracks and unprecedented talent, and we are all in for something mind-bendingly awesome.

As for Missy Elliott’s KCON appearance – expect her to hit the stage with G-Dragon and deliver a memorable performance that is sure to go down in the hip-hop history books.

Additionally, we hope that Elliott’s collaborations do not stop with G-Dragon.Famed Korean hip-hop pair Dynamic Duo will also be in attendance at KCON 2013, and seeing them on stage together would be an incredible treat – one that will hopefully lead to more collaborations in the future.

So get pumped – the G-Dragon-Missy Elliott mash-up is a very real thing and it is going to be AWESOME. Props to the KCON USA team for making this fantasy collaboration a reality!

Brown Eyed Girls Brown Eyed Girls + En Vogue Maybe it is just me, but when the Brown Eyed Girls made their comeback last month with their fifth studio album Black Box, I had the strong feeling of familiarity.

The powerful, award-winning R&B quartet, En Vogue.The Brown Eyed Girls embody the same female fierceness and raw sensuality once reserved for the American quartet...
