Big Mama


The award ceremony will be held tomorrow (14th Dec). Ryu Si Won and Kim Ah Joong will be the MCs for this event.

The following lists are the nominees. I have problems deciphering some of the Hip Hop nominees, though so I just put the album name as the original Korean album name. The only section that I didn’t put in is the Trot nominees. I have no idea who they are! (more…)

…WOW! Congratulations… I think Seung Woo may get a brother-in-law soon :P
Big Mama Lee Ji Young, Lee Young Hyun, “Currently in love
“We are all in love.” The four member group Big Mama became more beautiful.

The members who recently started off their 4th album ‘Blossom’ with the title song ‘Baeban (Betrayal)’ carefully revealed they were in love.

WOW! That’s really great news – considering the industry slump! They haven’t even release their title MV yet.

Haven’t even taking a look at the album (as in listening to it) but I saw on Oi that the MV is out. I’m so busy, I have not the time to go and download those new MVs :/

The packaging for this album looks really nice :) (refer to the 2nd picture).

 I always like Donga Ilbo interviews coz they are in-depth and actually gave us an insight of the artist being interviewed. All members of Big Mama can sing and they sing with powerful voices. If I have the chance, I’ll post that live clip of Lee Young Hyun with SoulStar. Oh yes, Lee Seung Woo (SoulStar member) is the brother of Lee Ji Young (Big Mama member) :) – the talent runs in the family as he said in the not-so-recent YDH Love Letter show that his mother is also a singer who likes to compete in singing competitions and won many prizes from those events!

Wow, they are going to come back in September – am really looking forward to their album. Big Mama is different from BMK (stands for Big Mama King), even though all of them are female singers with powerful voices :) .  Looking from those pictures, LOL, they have really slimmed down a lot…O_O

The contract of the 4-female group Big Mama with YG Entertainment and M-Boat expired in February. The group has now transferred to “Manwoldang” and plans to release a new song in May.

Yang Hyun Suk, director of YG Entertainment, conveyed this sad news at the YG homepage on March 2. Last year, Wheesung transferred to Orange Shock and this time, it was Big Mama’s turn to leave the YG-M-Boat nest.

According to Yang, YG was in charge of album production while M-Boat took charge in producing the album but during the 4 years, changes occurred in the roles of parties – Big Mama directly produced the album and M-Boat went on with its own business. He admitted that various problems happened. Big Mama decided not to sign another contract with YG-M-Boat. Because of the fact that Big Mama has already left, the YG-M-Boat project has also ended.

“Because Big Mama has great talent in singing, I believe that wherever they go, they will be alright. YG Entertainment and M-Boat had created an impact in the industry. The memories and gratefulness we shared will never be forgotten”, Yang ended his post, making clear that both parties will still have a good relationship with each other.

Geez, all the ppl left M-boat… first is Wheesung, then followed by Soulstar (refer to my Soulstar tag) and now Big Mama. I think M-boat now officially don’t have any artists under them anymore.
