For context, Hwasa was heavily criticized online for a picture (at the airport I think) were her breasts were peaking under her shirt. I kid you not. There are some strong masculinists groups in Korea (the actual president is one) and being a feminist is very hard in Korea. Hwasa is basically saying her sins are indeed beautiful and she has nothing to be sorry for. Queen. She is indeed drop dead gorgeous and an amazing performer.
I think this song also refers to another time she was criticized, that performance when she wore a red short leather-like outfit. Gosh, it was so hard seeing those ridiculous comments about her.
I think you mean the time she didn't wear a bra under her shirt when going to the airport, which was her way of saying fu to the idiots who criticized her for "wearing a bra" (a top that resembled a sports bra) the last time she went to the airport. Gotta love Hwasa's response when an interviewer asked her about it: "I was just dressing comfortably." There are several other times when she's been criticized for her airport or stage clothing choices and of course she and Mamamoo are among kpop's biggest shit magnets because they don't comply with kpop standards regarding fashion, beauty, gender, sexuality or proper behavior by female idols in general. Personally I don't think I'm a B is about the fashion controversies - she addressed that subject in Hip.
I haven’t finished the video yet but “빛“ means “light” in Korean but can have the same pronunciation as the English word “bitch” which I love. She’s flipping a negative into a positive.
She has also being judged for being so fierce, not using bras, being "overweight", so this is the perfect "middle finger" song for everyone talking shit 🤭 I actually can't seem to understand how she doesn't fit Korean's standard beauty... SHE'S GORGEOUS.
Yes, the tattoo on Hwasa's neck is real. She has a couple; one of 'Maria' (her baptismal name) on the back of her neck and then she has a matching tattoo with Wheein on the side. Wheein and Moonbyul also have several tattoos.
You're finally reacting to this song! Hwasa was told that she wouldn't make it in the industry because she isn't pretty and too dark. That she doesn't fit Korean beauty standards. Hwasa is my girl! She made a speech about it during an award show.
@@bazza1024 You can never go wrong with their title tracks!! Since they have MVs and you'll get to see them. Upbeat: Um Ah Oh Yeh, Egotistic, Aya, recent Illella. Ballad: Paint Me, Where are we Maybe check the killing voice thing and pick the songs you think you'll like ^^ Solo stuff: Solar: (she's the leader and a wildcard) Spit it out, Honey, Big Booty XD (she used to fangirl over Jimin and BST, so badly lol) Moonbyul: recent Lunatic, Shutdown, Ddu ddu ddu (trust me xD), older Eclipse, Mirror Wheein: watercolor, make me happy, paraglide Hwasa: LMM, Maria, FOMO I'm no moomoo, but I follow them and I love their style. ^^ Hope you like some tracks!
i agree with the comments actually mamamoo's fandom is one of the ones armys get along with the most cause mamamoo is very similar to bts. coming from small companies have creative freedom etc also jin and their rapper moonbyul are really good friends both born in 92. :) also their music group/solo is all amazing.
The “no bra” is the provocation that she send to Korean people who criticise her 2 years ago for not wearing a bra at the airport. “People thinks that I have a strong personality because of my strong image, wearing leopard prints. People had the impression that I'm someone who drinks alot and smokes” ~Hwasa I’m a b is a song that represents the appearance and image built by people.
Hawasa is one the most criticized artist spiacially by female artist bcz she dare to do things no one did that is why she made this song for all the industry , and she's been reject in her audition by the biggest companies I believe jyp and YG rejected here bcz she don't much the beauty standers so she told them am gonna make my own standars and now a lot of artist wanna do what she's doing she is amazing spiacially her voice she got one of the most beautiful voice in Korean industry
Actually Hwasa dosen't have body propotions that are "fav" in kpop industry and her face also have shaper features so many people comment on her that she is fat or ugly etc. She is very beautiful and powerfull woman with AMAZING body and i wish her best of everything.
Hwasa uses her solo work as a release and it's all very personal. 95% of her solo work (including features) are written and/or composed by her (ot at least partly). Also. Hwasa MVs often have a deeper meaning, and sometimes take inspiration from foreign films. This is a great breakdown of the MV, the person did a lot of research of Hwasa's interviews: ua-cam.com/video/vs8IBR9bhH4/v-deo.html One of my favorite Hwasa songs is "Be Calm" She wrote it after the passing of her uncle, who was like a 2nd father to her (he helped her a lot in early Mamamoo days because her parents live a few hours from seoul): ua-cam.com/video/7kgV7Hrb-1c/v-deo.html
Hwasa is really involved in every part of her art in writing producing directing her MV etc Most of the scenes in her MV are pertinent with her lyrics or her own story Like the no bra is about how she was brag multiple times in dramas for wearing only a bra or NOT wearing a bra Also Hwasa says herself she takes her inspiration from the film Trainspotting where a drug addict is fighting his addiction (the way for her music is her addiction) and you can see it in some plan of the MV (When she sinks into the ground for exemple) I'm a B is like an apology from her to her family/friends because she's sometimes so obsessed with her music that she forgot everything else and became a bitch. But she also shows how the industry leads her to become a bitch to defend herself but also a light (빛 read as bitch). It's like what happening to Maria if she doesn't have her friends and the will to face it all... (first scene with the bath clothe of Maria MV as if she had sunk and landed in the dark side of Maria) I love her artistry like this woman is brilliant ❤️
I think what i got from the MV is that how they all call her crazy or like you’re just a b*tch and like stuff and she comes up like oh excuse me I’m just some b*tch after all…you know? Like now kind of the feeling when they talk like they know you and they know what you are and all, while they’re all just mouths fr so you don’t even have the energy to get mad or angry you’re just like oh okay whatever, and that’s so fucking deep and dope asf ❤ SHE IS COOL.
Considering Hwasa is catholic and how she starts the white coded scene talking about efemerity of material things, I read the water bottle scene as if she's saying that you can't fill yourself with material things no matter how much you have Others comments already explaneid about the meaning about the mv itself so I'm not gonna be repetitive I'm just gonna say that it'ss amazing that she put 2 references at the same time: the female dancers got a bra while she doesn't cause she received hate when she used only a bra and when she only got a shirt without a bra and straight lines represent the predictability that she criticizes in life and industry, while the organic stripes represent how natural and unpredictable and savage she is (like a wild animal, a zebra)
I think you should check this out, its a breakdown of I am a B. Her mind is insane every little detail in this mv has a meaning. All of her songs have layers to them so I think it’d be worth to check out the explanations! I am B explained link: ua-cam.com/video/vs8IBR9bhH4/v-deo.html
For this song she has said that it was like a sassy apology for being a bitch as she had put it, "sorry! *wink*" Maria was a song showing her vulnerability and choosing to embrace the good aspect for herself where as this song is about making a different choice and to become the Bitch to survive in the industry. She makes a lot of references with films she has watched. I think someone in the comments dropped a link of an in depth look on what they were and meanings. In general she plays alot with her lyrics and if you listen she has contradicting thoughts going on in her head for this one.
YOU ASKED ABOUT THE TATTOO ON HER NECK: It's real, it's 1 of the 2 matching tattoos she has with fellow Mamamoo member WHEEIN; they've been best friends since childhood.
Her nail says MooMoo, that's the name of their fandom. I will never understand how can they critize such a beautiful and talanted artist like she (and the rest of Mamamoo) is. F* stupid standards.
yes Anthony she is so beautiful..i even stunned her more when they critisized her for wearing only a bra and then she came again to the airport without a bra ...and she again did the iconic no bra dance lol ...shes funny and hot Knetizens should know in my country HWASA IS THE BEAUTY STANDARDS ..i love her and stunned mamamoo bcz of her
If you like girls like Hwasa you should really check out CL!! She is also one of hwasas roll models. Please react to Hello Bitches, Tie a Cherry, MTBD live
You should definitely react to Catch a song that Hwasa features in it is so good highly recommend it I also hope you react to more Epik High if possible in the future
you should probably check out bibi if you like girls like hwasa! she is also a great and amazing artist... vengeance is her latest song and i highly recommend that
think you appreciate hwasa's "LMM(losing my mind) and the intro song to maria "Nobody else" few minute short mv is profound lyrics Anthony and her voice....i would of given her a grammy just for that 2 min intro video and voclas..so deep: ua-cam.com/video/OmnPr5Pxwsc/v-deo.html&ab_channel=MAMAMOO
You need to check out MAMAMOOO. They are known for being rebellious women against the mainstream industry coming from a small company and being international superstars in East Asia.

I’m a b is a song that represents the appearance and image built by people.
I don't give a damn whether Hwasa fits in any kpop beauty standards. She's a beautiful and extremely talented woman. Period. That's all that matters.
Hawasa is one the most criticized artist spiacially by female artist bcz she dare to do things no one did that is why she made this song for all the industry , and she's been reject in her audition by the biggest companies I believe jyp and YG rejected here bcz she don't much the beauty standers so she told them am gonna make my own standars and now a lot of artist wanna do what she's doing she is amazing spiacially her voice she got one of the most beautiful voice in Korean industry

anthony your very spot on..i think you got ht gist of meaning pretty much.

The not drinking water is a play on a movie about a guy who can't take a sip of alcohol because the devil doesn't let him because he owes the devil.
Hwasa is really involved in every part of her art in writing producing directing her MV etc Most of the scenes in her MV are pertinent with her lyrics or her own story
Like the no bra is about how she was brag multiple times in dramas for wearing only a bra or NOT wearing a bra
Also Hwasa says herself she takes her inspiration from the film Trainspotting where a drug addict is fighting his addiction (the way for her music is her addiction) and you can see it in some plan of the MV (When she sinks into the ground for exemple)

Preach Anthony. I like your message. I also agree Hwasa is beautiful by any standard anywhere period.
Considering Hwasa is catholic and how she starts the white coded scene talking about efemerity of material things, I read the water bottle scene as if she's saying that you can't fill yourself with material things no matter how much you have
Others comments already explaneid about the meaning about the mv itself so I'm not gonna be repetitive

Its funny cuz in certain “western countries” its more affordable to be fat than to be skinny, kinda ironic aye?
Just shows how women can never be at peace and are always expected to look a certain way by certain ppl and it never coincides

Honestly I think they are underrated even though they are pretty famous but I think they deserve more.
he reacted to Illela on a stream and said it's not his cup of tea. he won't like most songs of Mamamoo.
@@amberpearce710 they're not underrated. people simply have different preferences. Mamamoo are not for everyone.
