Rolling Stones US praises SNSD

Girl group SNSD received attention from Rolling Stones.
The popular US pop magazine Rolling Stones reported on SNSD and their new song “I Got A Boy” on January 11. They reviewed the song and gave it three and half stars out of five. The song received five stars out of five from community.
The Rolling Stones rarely reviews K-pop but they payed attention to Korea’s representative girl group SNSD.
It says, “It took the most beloved of all Korean girl groups (and a handful of Euro writers) to finally deliver a song as sharply plotted and blindingly razzle-dazzle as the K-pop machine itself.”
“Harmonizing, speed rapping, and belting like divas, mostly in Korean, these nine young idols romp through a candy land of pop sounds, from minimal R&B to high-BPM dance. It’s a musical gymnastics routine.”
The Rolling Stones previously praised G-Dragon’s “Crayon.”
SNSD also received considerable attention from the Times.
The Times said that SNSD can compete against Psy’s “Gangnam Style” and the US market wants SNSD, who proved K-pop can become popular in the world.
SNSD is also keeping busy in Korea.
Their fourth EP I Got A Boy, which was released on January 1, ranked first on the K-pop Hot 100. They also ranked first on Mnet M Countdown and KBS Music Bank.
