Coco Avenue was indeed a thing since 2012, and even then they were slaying just about every K-pop cover song they did. I'm surprised and a little disappointed they never got any recognition until now verse some random group name EXP who just walked into the K-Pop industry and got a pass with no trainee experience at all and very sloppy Korean, and they're already on M-Countdown, Simply K-Pop etc. Coco Avenue on the other hand can sing in perfect Korean, and as stated has been in the K-Pop game as cover artist since 2012. It's unfortunate their past works are no longer viewable on their YT channel, because I'm 1000% positive they would put EXP Edition to shame literally in 5 seconds.

Kpop is part of the korean cuture. I feel like kpop is the place where asians can be pretty proud of, and this is more like american pop or style, their mvs,sets etc. except their just singing in korean. the song is not bad tho same with EXP.

i don't think Kpop is a specific type of anything that everyone is trying to say. I think Kpop is just music that is manufactured in and released in Korea. They should of just said they are artist trying to get popular in Korea, which is why they sang in Korean. Even CL said Kpop is not just a genre it's just Korean music. The music she makes in America isn't Kpop. That's just my opinion on it. Trying to define Kpop is kind of weird too since other countries music isn't defined. American music is just music made in America.

I honestly think that people forget that this is not K-pop. It's more so K-hip-hop and R&B, and the way they came about were doing dance and song covers (on Youtube). They entered into contests and performed in festivals, some very big ones in Korea and the people loved them. Also as Jenna stated that they do not want appropriate the Korean culture nor even think about doing so, and there is a responsibility to be held by the K-pop industry itself for appropriating the stereotypes of African-American culture (incorrectly many times over). Also, the thing that is bugging me is that they have been doing this since about 2012 or 2013 and people are deciding to get angry over an article that Allkpop put up right after this EXP fiasco ... A little suspect... (But that's none of my business).

I think what makes kpop kpop is that their target audience is koreans, and asians. So not necessarily the language. I wouldn't consider this kpop because I personally don't think it would appeal to asia very much. It's (generally) more fun to see idols that look like you, and this is the case everywhere.
