From G-Dragon to 2PM to C-Quint

They need to stop copying each other. C-quint’s new single “Game Tai Jai (Guessing Game)” sounds a lot like 2PM’s “Heartbeat” and G-Dragon’s “Heartbreaker” Thai netizens are saying and I have would have to agree. Thai-pop, well maybe just C-quint and all of the RS boybands and girlbands are trying to be Korean or Japanese pop acts when they should be more original.

Though Thai bubblegum pop is not my genre of music, I would still like them to be creative–create their own sound instead of overly auto-tuning their voices like all of Asia and the World. Damn you Black Eyed Peas!

G-Dragon sorta copied from Flo Rida, C-Quint copied from G-Dragon. Man, Thai bubblegum pop is at the bottom of the food chain when it comes to copying. Be better.

The beginning of this song sounds a lot like 2PM’s “Heartbeat” then gradually we start to hear G-Dragon’s “Heartbreaker” or Flo Rida’s “Right Round”. I would break down the song for you, but I would have to listen to it several times. That ain’t gonna happen. Once is enough.

The MV looks like a cheap commercial for Apple’s Ipad. Do you agree? And they copied 2PM’s dance moves. Oy.

Mark Thaokhamlue will not be ousted from AF

Not a fan of Academy Fantasia (AF) or The Star or any type of reality tv/singing talent shows. I don’t know why, I have always hated them. If you asked me anything about American Idol, I would give you a dumbfounded/blank face look because I know diddly squat about AI. I remember Kelly Clarkson. The rest…who are they? The Star kids, I know a little about them because they are everywhere no matter how hard I try to avoid them. Academy Fantastia kids, they are avoidable. If this scandal didn’t break out about Mark Thaokhamlue, contestant V11 of AF season 7, I wouldn’t even know AF was on.

Before he became an AF contestant, Mark made several disparaging comments about the Prime Minister of Thailand Abhisit Vejjajiva and Zen: the Star season 6 on his Facebook account. Great! Another Facebook scandal. Mark did not approve of Khun Abhisit Vejjajiva handling of red shirt protesters and said Zen the Star looked like a gecko and had a physique of a dog and that he will be more famous than him.

Mark blamed the Bangkok fire incident a few weeks ago on the Prime Minister.

“You can resign now! Stupid Abhisit. If Abhisit resigned, it would have ended.  Would the red shirts burn anything? Because of who did the red shirts set fire? Just asking. Mae…I can say this frankly seeing all those protesters, if it was me, I would have resigned a long time ago. But you, you didn’t resign.  What now, it’s all burnt. What are you going to do about it? You can’t do anything. You won’t resign. Stupid face! Can’t resolve the problem, then resolve the parliament. Mae…you are probably scared to be unemployed more so. You’re not as rich as Thaksin (ousted Prime Minister of Thailand). You’re scared of dying. Scared to leave the country without money.”

Eee…people are not amuse with this comment and want Mark ousted from the AF house pronto. He is not though, AF producers are keeping him because these comments were made more before he became a contestant. He did not break the rules because AF has nothing to do with politics.

Now on to what he said about Zen the Star.

“Who are you?  The Star 6?-Zen. Handsome, Cute, Korean Style. A person who is devoted to his family. Everyone screams and faints when he is up on stage.”

However….

“His face is like a gecko, his body is like a strayed dog. His mouth is like an African person. Just bragging, I will be more famous than you. Just you watch. Got nothing to do, just insulting someone for fun. 55555.”

Mam gives birth a month early

He’s healthy, but he is early. “Mam” Katreeya Mcintosh has given birth to her second born son N ong Kin at the BNH hospital. He was scheduled for an August 15 birth, but came a month early. It’s all good since he’s healthy.

A picture of Nong Kin, the name was chosen by Mac, Mam’s first born. Willy, Mam’s older brother said his nephew has his eye color.

Any more kids for Mam, the answer is ‘yes’. One more.
