<p>I know we think this happens in America when pop groups gain fleeting popularity, but please understand,<strong> IT IN NO WAY COMPARES TO KOREA.</strong></p>
<p>One artist, named G-Dragon (also a member of <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF31EVarByU" target="_blank">Big Bang</a>), has recently caught my attention because he is being barraged with claims of <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdvn_tdQkkw" target="_blank">plagiarism</a>.</p>
<p>Regardless of what you think about G-Dragon&#8217;s plagiarizing, this song has a great beat.  Also, I love the video.</p>
<p>I am becoming increasingly disappointed with MTV&#8217;s VMA&#8217;s&#8230; <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mVEGfH4s5g" target="_blank">Beyonce won this year</a> for a video that was ridiculously bad&#8230; the year before that, <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4NayXtzsBo" target="_blank">Britney won</a> out of sympathy&#8230; and before that, <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5jdA9Tdg-k" target="_blank">Rihanna won</a> for one of the worst pieces of video ever put to music.</p>
<p>So, in comparison to Beyonce, Britney, and Rihanna, I think G-Dragon&#8217;s video hold&#8217;s up very, very well.</p>
<p>Check it out:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LOXEVd-Z7NE&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LOXEVd-Z7NE&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>ps, I should mention that <a  href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZSLIq6YiRY" target="_blank">Britney did win a Best Pop VMA</a> for Womanizer, which she completely deserved (in my opinion)</p>
