isnt mina kwon the girl who draws stewies on gds shoes lol vast and next level i guess im happy for gd but i wish pharrell would collab w one of my faves instead bc hes cute af
lol i know right. http://minakwon.tumblr.com/ basic as fuck. her stuff always looks like a crappy tracing and recolour with blurry and/or wonky lines. SMH.
But why Mina Kwon? Has Pharrell actually seen her work? I suppose if you want to say Korean art is vast, her work helps show the low end of that vastness.
Yes he has. She's a huge fan of him and has met him few times. http://www.complex.com/art-design/2013/04/mina-kwon-designs-the-cake-for-pharrells-40th-birthday And I remember seeing Pharrell giving her also some shout outs in instagram few times.
In fact Pharrell probably only got to hear about GD from Mina.
I don't understand the story of Mina Kwon. I thought she was some random rich girl in Seoul that got the attention of Jay, then GD, then Teddy...and this somehow catapulted her into an in demand (or at least known in the US????) artist??????
Does she ever make anything original (not simpsons / family guy versions of people)? Is this bad?
She's probably part of their "super secret" illuminati club/occult thing. It seems to be best way to make connections in music industry nowadays (I bet that someone is making big bucks by fooling all these rich kids though in Scientology style).
Ha this is cool. I find it funny, because honestly I think our fandoms collide alot more than even we know, and due to technology catching up with the times people are just finding out about it more and more.
I think King Pharrell is just super kind hearted and will never say no to a loyal subject. It explains so much! Or at least, that's what I tell myself to make me feel better.
I don't really understand why everyone is "Omg they don't fit together!" ? It's not like GD only makes Crayon type of music. Anyhow I'm happy for GD all his biggest dreams are gradually coming true.
i've always felt that while so many people in the comments/tumblr/whatever find GD embarrassing, that a lot of artists would actually love his shit. I just think so many people would see him as being just as cool, edgy, and creative as he thinks he is.
Hahaha I love GD's answer, he must be screaming around "PHARRELL WANTS A COLLAB WITH ME" I haven't heard about Mina Kwon but, lol, judging from the comment here, it's not a bad thing xD
I know nothing of her, but I'm surely not going to let omona decide whether or not I check her out/like her stuff.
Not that they're wrong, but sometimes ppl are just haters and I'd rather look into it myself than just go off of someone else's biased opinion.
Suju is a prime example. I heard them bashed here and ONTD, but I love their stuff now. I would've missed out on something I now enjoy had I just listened to LJ peeps.
Sorry for the lecture, just...bah, idk. I feel sharey today!
Haha no problem, share if you want too bb~ I made a comment about Omona's general opinion on Mina Kwon (it made me laugh that so many persons were "OMG NOT HER"), but it was nothing personal :) If I come accross actualities about her, I'll check her out, I don't really care actually. Suju's individuals made a lot of mistakes, like a lot of people actually, and people can dislike them, but there's nothing wrong with the group and its music :)
I feel really really bad Pharrell mentioned GD and Minakwon in the same line :( GD is, of course, in next level, but, wht? mina kwon? did Pharrell heard the wrong name???
um ok maybe gd x pharrell would be good (GDTOP X PHARRELL????? BB X PHARRELL????) but pharrell's stuff w/ teriyaki boyz will always be superior to other collabs imo
