2NE1’s Umbrella

2NE1's Umbrella

Anyone remember this awesome cover of Rihanna's "Umbrella" by 2NE1 earlier in the month? Well its back, but 100 times more epic.

For the Music Bank special tonight, 2NE1 has gone back to this cover, practiced it, remixed it and perfected it. Their performance was off the hook! The girls vocals were very strong and were backed up with excellent choreography. I was particularly impressed by Bom who on debut was the one with the shaky vocals, but boy hasn't she improved and now has one of the strongest voices in the group.

Just as you couldn't think their performance could get any better, the girls have then moved on to their debut song "Fire" with the same intensity that is a trademark of 2NE1's style.

P.S. Notice the girls paying tribute to Michael Jackson.

I love the girls and especially love minji, the dance was really good, but honestly, the umbrella vocals were a little bit all over the place. Fire was great as usual though

Bizarre incidents continue on Music Bank. Apparently at the end of the broadcast where all the performers gathered on stage for the award, one of the light fixtures fell. The unfortunate person standing right below was Onew. According to SM reps, luckily, Super Junior members Shiwon and Kyuhyun were able to grab it before it hit him, but Onew was so shocked by the incident that he fainted and was carried backstage on one of the managers’ backs. In order to make sure everything was ok, he was taken to the hospital to be checked out. Earlier that day during rehearsals, Super Junior Sungmin tripped over a stage prop, fell, and cut his knee. He was taken to the hospital to get stitches. Music Bank needs to take a serious look into their safety measures.

No matter how much I luv her, Bom is still a bit awkward :( But her vocals are always top notch xD CL really has the qualities of a leader o.o Dara improved alot and I didn’t know her english would be this good o.o Minji’s english is pretty good too :] These 2 performances just made me love 2ne1 even more <333

The MJ tribute was totally cool. “Umbrella” was epic and everyone sounded great, but I think this was their weakest “FIRE” performance vocally. This is probably the only “FIRE” perf. where Dara did better than Bom. It was a great performance overall though ^^

they are tired guys coz they perfomed twice..and one thing more you have to watch all perf of musicbank and almost all artists are like that they are tired and exhausted..watch 2ne1 umbrella..they are the only artist who pay tribute to mj’s death the put image of mj in their clothes during umbrella perf..it’s hard to dance with those outfits and heels.. and to all the performers good job people we salute you!!!

Im glad CL paid respect to MJ :D
thought i must say it wasn’t their most powerful vocal performances
Umbrella was sorta all over the place, but loved the choreography
FIRE wasn’t at it’s best, but they must be really tired by then :]
Overall they were pretty good ^^
2NE1 <33
