Black Eyed Peas likes Rain and the Wonder Girls

Famous American hip hop group, The Black Eyed Peas consisting of members will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo, and Fergie were recently interviewed by a Korean News Station. When asked who their favorite Korean Star was, one of the members stated that they liked Rain and The Wonder Girls.

This isn't the first time they recognized a Korean artist, as will.i.am gave Kero One a personalized video message. It seems like a lot of American artists are interested in Korean acts these days. Hopefully, this time period will be looked back upon as the start of big things for Asian Artists in America. Thanks to Sarah West and wana for the tip.

Korean Music > American “music”

haha, probably before they came to korea they were probably told by their manager or something to study rain and wonder girls because they were gonna ask them that, bc koreans always ask that question to foreigners :DDD

# 123: then why only Rain and wondergirls but not BOA and Se7en?

 
Stephy♥'s avatar

Who doesn’t like the Wonder Girls, though? xD They’re that good. I don’t think anyone can listen to So Hot without going “I’M ~ SO ~ HOT” for a couple of hours afterward. :D

Kind of dumb. Not many Korean artists to choose from considering there’s only like 5 of them attempting at the Western market.

That’s cool.

That’s awesome, I’m glad Korean artists are getting noticed and are talked about by American singers.
