Se7en Breaks Through BET and Gets a New Manager

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Se7en's music video "Girls, featuring LiL Kim" will premiere tomorrow on BET's 106 & Park at 6PM (The First Asian Artist to ever have their MV Premiered on BET). After the premiere, the music video will go into rotation on BET.

In addition to the premiere of "Girls," Allkpop has received confirmation that Johnny Wright will be co-managing Se7en alongside Red Queen Media, to take Se7en to the next level. For those of you unfamiliar with Johnny Wright, he's managed some of the biggest stars in America, including: New Kids on the Block, The Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Stevie Brock, Ciara, The Jonas Brothers, and Menudo.

And finally... rumor has it that Se7en will be collaborating on a track with Justin Timberlake.

ETA: Se7en's video on BET:

Sources: 1, 2

I guess Se7en's surprise visit into YG's office finally paid off.

ETA: The allkpop article was from June 1st, so I guess the video already premiered on BET.

I really, really want the JT rumor to be true.

[orangeinsanity.livejournal.com]

So do I, that would be so, so awesome.

[candy-phobia.livejournal.com]

Huh well maybe things start rolling now and YG doesn't just lock Se7en up in his broom closet with other older artists of his.

[finchburg.livejournal.com]

And then YG brings Big Bang to the US in 2010 or something. A girl can dream, right?

[finchburg.livejournal.com]

This is really great news. Johnny is someone that definitely knows the industry. If Se7en ends up more of a R&B mainstay in the US market (instead of Top 40) that would be a huge accomplishment.

Seungri would be way jealous if he works with JT, he would probably try really hard to visit the dance rehearsals or something.

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

seungri would be callin up his hyung begging to come visit.

[chickadork.livejournal.com]

I hope these are all true, maybe he'll actually have a chance of breaking in!

[orangeinsanity.livejournal.com]

I know, I really hope he can!

[trannas.livejournal.com]

Awesome~ I bet he showed YG how it's done. Too bad I don't have BET. I find the collab with JT funny since Se7en is considered as the "Korean Justin Timberlake." It's almost like that meeting between Britney and BoA years ago.

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

lol How many korean justin timberlakes are there really? seems like everyone gets referred as the korean justin timberlake.

OH DEAR GOD FORIZZLE?
*drops like a hot potato onto the floor*

SE7EN?! ON BET?!
OH GOD, all my ~black~ peers are going to see that and...hehe...*drops once more*

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

se7en is movin on up~

[smilingsounds.livejournal.com]

IM TAPING THIS SHOW JUST TO SEE THIS VIDEO

[heartsolid.livejournal.com]

I'll watch 106 & Park just for that. It would be awesome if he would be a guest too! I hope the video does well, I'll vote. I love that song.

AND PLZ let the JT rumor be true. That would be pure win. I hate it that he's not making an album any time soon.

[orangeinsanity.livejournal.com]

I would watch just for him too! I so hope this rumor is true!

[that-princess.livejournal.com]

I just wish he chose another song to show at 106, even though that program is pretty shitty.
'Girls' is just a generic, boring, lazy, and just all around bad song (imho)

[candy-phobia.livejournal.com]

It doesn't really have that 'stuck-in-my-head-need-to-listen-on-repeat-for-7-hours' quality to it. :/

[polysweet.livejournal.com]

SE7EN + JT?
dw! dw! dw!

[megasourwarhead.livejournal.com]

mte! even if I hate TimberFake I know it'd be great for se7en :D

[dreamgazed.livejournal.com]

Totally watching this show tomorrow.

I'm glad to see his efforts aren't a complete waste here! I'm starting to loose hope esp after that boyband remix/collabo whatever. UGH

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Sorry, old article so it already aired:

[tinyknots.livejournal.com]

lol i hope my friend who makes fun of kpop and watches BET saw it and liked it.

[incisively.livejournal.com]

Se7en + Justin Timberlake = YES PLZ

[no-genre.livejournal.com]

yay!! things are turning around :D
i just hope the thing with the unknown boyband ends up not happening

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

OH FOR REAL! Those kids are a joke and an insult to se7en. They are such little snots.

[cosmicmyk.livejournal.com]

I don't even like Se7en, but somehow this news makes me happy.

[paperlet.livejournal.com]

omg yes anything for se7en

[paperlet.livejournal.com]

also just throwing this out there but when he goes back to korea he needs to guest star on family outing

[dreamgazed.livejournal.com]

THIS.

[smilingsounds.livejournal.com]

oh shit it's already up!

[sensibilityxx.livejournal.com]

darnit.


i wanted to watch it premier.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

[maisoui.livejournal.com]

SE7EN + JT would be amaaaazing and so much better than Lil' Kim.

Side comment lol.."Girls" isn't bad, but ngl, I do like his Korea-style music better.

[ohlilu.livejournal.com]

this is truly excellent news.

and Menudo.

i lol'd. i will forever associate ricky martin with that band.

[marslover13.livejournal.com]

lol
whatever happened to the new version of Menudo that came out a few years ago?

[uhrelax.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I was too distracted by Lil Kim's boobs.
And this song sucks, sadly. ): What's up with all these US releases being disappointments?

[marslover13.livejournal.com]

I still don't see the relevance of Kim's rap to the overall song -.-

He probably would have broken into mainstream already if his video was just him standing there with his shirt off or something.

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

I cant even understand wtf she is saying.

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

yes... now this is a good move.

[miuratenshi.livejournal.com]

FINALLY.

And Se7en + JT would ROCK.
