I'm a bit lost here since I haven't updated myself with WG news like since the last mini, so what is this Nobody for Everybody thing? A Japanese Nobody?

^ Correct

They look great on the covers but I'm over that song lol. Oh well, it's for the Japanese fans anyway so it should be nice for them. I'm looking forward to hearing the 2012 versions of Saying I Love You and You're out!

I can't wait for their Official concert next week. I hope they perform lots of songs from Wonder World

Apparently their Japanese promotion is going to be pretty short anyway. They will be going back to America soon? They've spent so long there trying to learn the language, it's pretty crazy they haven't officially debuted yet. Just a bunch of promotional singles.

There's 2 teasers out now for their new American single "Like Money" which is being released next week on July 10th. ^^

I think the US album might FINALLY be releasing into stores. I really wanna go into my local CD store and buy a copy right off the shelf. ^^

Like Money seems a hell of a lot better than the trash that was Wonder Party. That mini just needs to diaf and never come into contact with my ears again. But really though, Akon? No one's cared about him since his song with Gwen Stefani. Hell, she hasn't released music in years and people care a lot more about her. I just wish they could have done a song on their own, but if JYP thinks Akon will give them the boost they need...

I have mixed feelings about this song. I like it, but at times theres too much autotune over their own voices during certain parts of the song. Also, Akon sounds good in this song, but he doesn't have as much influence in the US as he used to, so that might not help them all that much. However, its still a step up from School Gryls. Nextly, they really should've left the tad bit of Korean thing at the very start of the MV out. The general American public (excluding kpop fans) only want to hear English in what they listen to. Plus, I heard in a couple weeks they're performing this at that Summer Groove music fest in Korea. Just when will they start promoting it in America? This I'm curious about.

@bondingo Agree 100% on the Wonder Party mini album!!! Was terrible!!

Like Money is okay I guess. The DJ is mine was better. I really dislike Akon and the music video reminds me of American pop videos from 2000-2003. Kind of lame. The Nobody Japanese music video is better but that song needs to die IMO.

Total agreement, especially with Like Money. Akon ruins the song, which would be good ENOUGH (it's made for a breakthrough in America after all, not another Korean "comeback"), but isn't because of him. You can't even edit him out either because then the song becomes about a minute and a half long

I know right. And I lol'd at how they just filmed him sitting and staring at nothing in the music video. So pointless lol
