BoA but i hope Se7en makes it to.
Wonder Girls, people will just need to get use to another girl band.
i hope they make it to.
i have my money on Rain also(:

I’m going to go with Utada, because, unlike BoA, Wonderigirls, or Se7en, she has already had an album or two released long before any of the others in America, can speak English fluently, (and I’m not talkin bout dat gansta shit crown j be pullin off), and just has a bit more experience.

umm according to us charts and stuff like that (not that i care for those things but facts are still important )utada and boa both have decent album positionings utadas the only one who can speak english boas voice is soo overprocessed it doesnt even matter anymore and boa also just debuted rite? w/e i like both of their music
oh and utadas music is in popular games so shes making good money
as for the others….idk….ummm se7en….ehhh…..crown j—never heard of his interest in the us market and…for wg…yeahh…dont think so…america is sooo over those semi-talented girl groups with catchy songs much less azns who speak engrish—more like “engurishu”...maybe…but wg basically crumbles down to
2decent singers(sunye/yeeun)
1rapper(yoobin)
1singer with no technique(sunmi)
and 1 horrific absolutely “NO IM NOT A SINGER BUT IM STILL CUTE” voice(sohee)

lols i also think utada has the best chance i mean alot of people listen to utada way back when i was like in grade 5 and she can speak english without an accent .. i mean she was born in nyc but then moved back to japan or something and i think she has loads of talent . boa on the other hand has talents too but the thing is she’s just another wannabe copycat (no offence to fans out there) she had one pretty big hit “eat you up” but other than that no one listens to her other songs ... and the people who do are asians . americans dont listen to wannabe copycat shizzes ... WG & SE7EN & CROWN J stand no chance .. if boa can’t make it they will have an even bigger chance of not making it & who cares if boa signed up with CAA it doesn’t mean she’s going to become an instant hit out there in america

BoA or Utada Hikaru.

Everyone is going to call Crown J wannabe-gangster.

uuuuuuuuuhmmmm. not sure. but does anyone know where can i watch those performance???

for me ....Hikki (Utada Hikaru)
I love her and boa.

How come there’s no option for “none of the above”?

Get serious people. Do you think anyone of them will succeed?

wow….no offense but i think se7en or crown j or wondergirls have a chance. boa is way too old. i dont like her or her songs. i like lee hyori better. lols

ONE WORD.

UTADA.

I have alotof faithin Se7en for somereason.. SO I’ll go with Se7en but I would say Crown J’s got an advantage with his English skills. =)

Utada’s album was a bit disappointing.
Albeit I adore three songs. XD She has tried before (Exodus) and nobody but her usual fans cared. >< +
BoA’s all technodanceydancey stuff.. not my thing, but it caters to the American style, imo. Album kinda bored me. + As for Se7en, nobody.. is really like, interested per say. Don’t hate me. XD He’s hot and talented, but he needs more publicity, seriiiously. +

And as much as I love WG, they (some of the members) need to improve their English first, as well as have Sohee sound better, and all that jazz. I mean, to debut here means ... more practice, more energy, more everything. D:
They can’t just depend on us fans. XD

WG, i’m biased but i honestly think they’ll do great.
other than that se7en or boa.

Utuda Hikaru!

None of them, why does this poll even exist?

1. BoA will lack something, maybe her album, its soo encoded, and she always gets compared to Britney.
2. Wonder,.....: catchy but suck a performing live, if the US critics heard the MR removed vids they will not be the nicest people. Sohee is an issue here..
3.Se7en: NEEDS NEW PROMOTIONSSSSSSS!
4.Utada: no comment..yet
5.Crown J:.......

just stating my mind here,

Utadaaaaaa~~~ ♥ ♥
I’ve been hearing Utada all the time on MULTIPLE radio stations, and promoted alot here in NYC,
She’s was born here AFTER ALL ♥
....
Sorry to the kpop that trying to make it here in the states,
but they should realize their konglish/accented English isn’t gonna cut it xD

I think Utada has a bigger chance out of the bunch, she was once recognized as a singing diva in the U.S but that was a while back.
As talented as BoA is Sm shouldn’t have presented her to us as Asia’s Britney, unlike Britney BoA has a freaking voice, and that synthesizer crap is reserved for britney and sohee the end.
Wonder Girls has a big fat question mark next to its name, the question is, is America ready for cute or are we/they still stuck on overtly sexy floor humping.
Crown J might make it underground in the ATL, might, but he’s still fine in my eyes (sexay!)
as for Park Han Byul’s husband… I can’t really say for him. Another sexay mofo. If he he collabs with biggers names, then maybe just maybe :]

Definitely Hikaru because she speaks perfect English and she sings well.

My opinion is exactly like 5. (Eden)

I love most of them but BoA for sure her music is so catchy and with the right promo she will become big!

Utada!! Just because a lot of people at my school listen to her song “Come back to me” and sing it all the time so I guess she is more popular than the others? And that’s goood. and i’ve heard it on the radio. Haven’t heard the other songs from BoA and the others on the radio…maybe it’s cause I don’t listen to the radio much. =D

well utada was born in america…. does that still count?

crown jay for the win ~ ♥

i’m sorry to say thins but i hear Utada’s songs on the radio a LOT!!
i have heard BoA once
and the rest never
and Utada’s KILLS BoA’s album
i am even buying Utada’s album
ya its that good!

You know what all of these acts need?  More white fans.

Also, Utada’s album?  I got into it having never heard her and barely heard of her before.  Just utter curiosity.

K/Jpop?  All these Asian acts that I started off with, I learned about from my fellow WHITE friends.

These people all have an audience outside of Asians that is willing to support them.  I’m proof, every time I buy several copies of one of their releases.

Utada of course. She’s the only one getting airtime.
Also, her album was 10000000000x better than BoA’s.
I wish all the others luck tho.

wo wo wo wondergirlssss <3

It will definitely be Utada Hikaru…

She has already established herself here in the U.S.

It will not be hard for her to get ahead of them again…

BoA’s singles and album hasn’t been shown in Pandora while Utada already has.

Definitely Utada.

Utada cause there are a lot of whities that are into Japanese music LOL.

Where’s the option for none of the above?
I don’t think the market is ready for any of them to break through
While Utada’s english is fluid and she oozes talent, her music just doesn’t have the mass appeal for the US audience. The rest have already failed before they began.

it would definitely be BoA. people are saying utada in the comment section because she’s more recognized in the states but how long was she here for? longer than BoA. so it’s like obvious she would be more recognized because BoA just debuted in the states like a couple months ago while utada was like a couple years ago.
and BoA has the back of CAA now. she’s definitely going to go places now. it’s just the beginning of her US career.
BoA fighting.
i hope other korean artists breakthrough too. hopefully BoA will make it easier for them in the US just like she did in Japan.

honestly one thing we americans like is good english unless u are a rapper chances are we are goin to say something about ur english speakin skillz. I think Utada will eventually get the win cause she already has a fan base with the kingdom hearts gamers and has some radio play going on. I havent heard Boa song nor Se7en, I dont know Crown J and unless he can pull Slim Shady he aint happening. WG, I have to wait and see what image they going for and how good their english skills are. What these artist need is to get connected with current and well known artist, Se7en tried a bit by havin lil kim though she hasnt been in the scene in a while but with her being in DWTS pp are talking about her again. so maybe some of that can go Se7en way. Collab is the key. Hook up with good artist and a good song and a hit can happen look at lady gaga, she was unknown till she hit the song with akon, just dance was a good song, and her collab is popular singer now.

Utada for no other reason that the fact that she’s fluent in English, which is a huge advantage when it comes to doing promotions in the US. Plus, she’s already getting quite a bit of airplay as well.

I’m really unsure about Boa. I’d like for Boa to do well, but I’m not sure she has what it takes to make it. I think she’ll probably get strong following within the club music genre but not a mainstream popularity.

Wondergirls..hmm…maybe. But it really spends on what songs they release and the image they use. If they use the Tell Me image, then probably not.

I also think it’s important to have a clear understanding as to what it means to succeed in the US market. Top 10 on the Billboard Charts? Grammy Award? Sold out concert? How is success measured?

i’m going for utada

#129 actually pandora does play BoA’s singles. wanna know how i know? i have a pandora account and i’m listening to her right now. why dnt u try finding boa in artist and create a boa station

all i know is that the other day, BoA’s MV was playing in KFC. in kentucky.
nuff said.

boa fighting!!! :D

utada-
I’ve heard her on the radio plenty of times and people actually know who she is at my school.  && she also has an edge over the others cause she’s actually fluent in english..
Exodus wasn’t very successful but she’s doing much better with this album

boa - I want her to do well but I can’t help but feel like cringing when I hear her speak.  Her album didn’t impress me either =/ Hopefully she’s get better songs in the future…

WG hasn’t come out yet so I’ll wait. =) But out of all of them, def Utada. I can
ACTUALLY HEAR her song being played on the radio stations. LOL. And she has the best English since she was native born.

boa’s cause she has more industry support from the US. forever21 and the CAA and such.

se7en i think kind of gave up, but he had potential

utada probably won’t capture america.

wg will probably be made fun of. they aren’t that fierce. (at least, “nobody” isn’t).

I just watched a music show on TV with some good old singers today and they pull me back to perspective again of what good music and talent are all about.  WG is a joke.  Why don’t these try to get on American Idol and see what the response will be?  If they’re talented enough America will bring them over (like some girls who appeared on Oprah before.)  Don’t need to sweat it.

i’d put my money on wonder girls. not just because i’m a fan, but because i trust JYP. “tell me, so hot, nobody,” he made those songs because that’s what he believed the korean audience wanted, and he was right! the man knows what he’s doing. also, wonder girls music isn’t cutesy (i bet those who said so haven’t listened to their other songs), they can pull off sexy without being slutty, and they can pull off classy (“nobody”). besides out of all those artists, JYP has the most connections in the US music industry. as for their english…it’s good enough.

utada has tried, and failed, and is trying again (but i’m starting to believe she just isn’t pretty enough for america). boa…has nothing new to offer. maybe se7en can pull it off if YG can market him better. crown j…don’t think so.

@91: seriously? that would be awesome!

who knows…maybe the wonder girls will actually be the breakthrough…they might surprise us.

all the need is ONE hit, catchy single to leave an impression on the U.S. audiences in order for a so-called “breakthrough”

i’d be watchin out for them….

utada maybe… we’ll see…

as much as I like all the artists, the only one that has a chance is BoA

where is the ‘none of the above’ option?

If the Wonder Girls use their “Irony” vocals, then I’ll be happy to listen to them. Please stay away from “Tell Me”.....even if the song isn’t for showcasing vocals, I really hate that song. It seems to be their most popular song though? why is that?

BoA, followed by Utada.  Everybody knows who BoA is, or most do already.  Utada also has great vocals, and the dirty sexy image in her new album is bound to draw hits.

Not too sure about the other groups/singers.

where’s charice? oh right, she isn’t a recording artist….yet, but still no.

maybe utada? boa’s style is highly indistinguishable from the rest of the REAL hoes up there…though i hope she doesn’t become one.
