Whenever a foreign artist is about to record an all English-language album, I get really anxious. I feel like it'll be difficult for them to truly show the American public what they're like and about. The lyrics are rarely as good as those in their native languages, and there'll be endless comparisons drawn between them and Western artists. I've only listened to a handful of 2NE1's songs, so I can't say much about them, but good luck to them. I'm likely to give the album a listen once it's out, so I hope I'll be proven wrong.
