2012 MAMAs

Ok, so after quite a hiatus from blogging I am back. The holiday time is such a busy time for me, so please accept my apology for the lack thereof.

I got up before the crack of dawn so I could watch the live broadcast online of the MAMAs (MNet Asian Music Awards) for those who don't know, it is like the VMA or MTV music awards of Asia. The biggest award event of the year for these artist.

Four and a half hours later, here I am. For anyone who is interested in watching they are replaying the awards now... wish I would have known that... I would have watched the replay and gotten more sleep haha. Here is the link to watch the 2012MAMA performances.

So much is going on and there is so much that I have missed updating on... I hope to get a recap written ASAP!

The Block is Coming

Block B  is back in the house. I am sure that BBC's are thrilled at the release of their new album, Blockbuster. I know I am. I have been long awaiting their comeback. The songs for the album does well to showcase their musical abilities. Here is the MV for NILLILI MAMBO. Their album was released OCT. 17.

Many other releases are on the horizon this month, Hyuna of 4minute will release her mini album, 'Ice Cream' on the 22nd. On the 23rd B.A.P will be releasing a new single. Epik High will be dropping a new album soon too.

To commemorate the groups 7th anniversary, a photobook of Super Junior titled ‘Super Junior Boys in City Season 4. Paris’ will go on sale November 6th. Omo!!!! It is supposed to be full of photos taken during their SS4 concert in France that took place in April of this year.

NU'EST released a MV for their song Sandy.

I also want to present Wonder Boyz! Recently debuted with their mini album, 'Open the Door'.

So many great comebacks and debuts. I can't wait to see what the last few months has in store for us fans of Kpop.

I will leave you with this amusing MV from Epik High... although it isn't new, I wanted to share it. Made me laugh.
