[quote=--pUshnIt08--;#3508230;1270304646]But please, have some originality. Now, theyre just known as KPOP imitators. Just that.[/quote] Well said.

First and foremost, WTF?? Seriously?? & Pinoy Pop? Not even half of them looked Filipino at all hahaha even their skin colour is not even close to being Filipino. It's obviously their looks that got them in this P-Pop industry. I'm watching their vids right now, and I must say, I'm not impress. I'd say the real P-Pop are like Sexbomb Dancers. They are the closest artists that I can classify as P-Pop. I think there's more but I can't think right now. But it's definitely not these xlr8 artists.

YA! the question here is why are they debuting now when KPOP is rising here in the Philippines? Some admitted it already themselves that KPOP is making alot of airwaves here both as a music and as a trend. I dont have anything agaisnt PPOP or watvr. But turn the world upside down, were going to be labelled as "imitators", cause yeah others dont really tend to imitate, but the part that they actually started to do all of these things when a kind of trend is storming up in our country doesnt make sense. In the eyes of many esp those who arent filipinos and especially those who are koreans, its going to be that way. I like to break that cycle of US continously imitating stuffs from other countries, its not just this. Koreanovelas, those Telenovelas from other countries, it started there. Now this?, we may not be the only one whos imitating also. I know that. I am very much aware of that. But id like our country to not be included there. We have alot of talents to make our own music. Why copy others?

lets just chew for P-POP, sounds like popcorn mehn

You know what I really hate these days? Philippines kinda copying Korea and/or Japan. KINDA. Loooong ago, I loved the Phils because it was original and we had our own ideas. And noow..UGH. It's like a swarm of people going to plastic surgeons and salons and whatnot to get Korean/Japanese hair, skin, nose...it's disgusting. [b]I am appalled. [/b] Now they're copying the music style too? What is this? This is horrifying.

[quote=--pUshnIt08--;#3508230;1270304646]Ok i get the whole fact that we shud be proud of them. Yea we should. And actully XLR8, theyre kinda pretty good. Though they really really look like koreans too >_<, The fact that were stating is the completely utter imitation of such things that are getting popular or famous whther its music or tv. How can i b proud of being considered as just an imitator?. We have our own voices, our own styles. Shudnt WE make our OWN thing?, as of now, all i see are Pinoy Bands, most of them are ROCK or Indie.Dont get me wrong, i am 100% a fan of them, i love alot of bands like Bamboo, Pedicab, TBC, Sinosikat, Hale and such. Thats what Filipinos are known for in terms of music. But having to make these kind of wanna-be bands that just debut now because of the continous rising of KPOP here is a little boogus. and calling it P-POP also? Why such the urge to make them now?. Are they trying to beat KPOP of the market? People lke me stand for originality, i wonder if they even thought of that they wud just get compared to KPOP bands, i hope tho that they stand the chance against them and get as popular as them also. But please, have some originality. Now, theyre just known as KPOP imitators. Just that.[/quote] You just summed it up for me. Thank you. [quote=harvii;#3508284;1270307506]Not even half of them looked Filipino at all hahaha even their skin colour is not even close to being Filipino.[/quote] Lotions, Makeup, Belo, Photoshop.... [hr] They have good voices, huh? Well, I guess that's pretty fair but seriously. P-Pop?

I just saw [b]XLR8[/b] in MYX before. And I like it. I think yeah, maybe they're trying hards but XLR8 is not that much. Maybe [b]Pop Girls[/b] is. When I saw, Pop Girls for the first time, my reaction is: , copycats. But when I saw XLR8, I kinda like it. I was like, wow. We can compete them to other KPOP groups. XDD That is my opinion. --------- [quote=Ephemeral;#3512877;1270599935]I tried listening to their songs and only XLR8 stands out. Well at least I'm trying to be fair. [/quote] Totally agree.

hey, i'm just curious.. does [b]XLR8[/b] pronounced as "accelerate"? [i]Ex-el-er-eight = accelarate[/i] i don't even know that group.. all i know is that, they're super junior copycats. i viewed an fb fan profile of XLR8. and saw some photos of XLR8 and Super Junior.. (well, it's kinda similar).. and many people hate them.

I'm not against them. K-pop & J-pop mostly have similarities, so with the P-pop, we're still [u]Asians[/u] after all, what's wrong? Well, instead of citicizing them, why won't we just support P-pop since it's [u]ours[/u] and it is a big help to the music industry in our country. P-pop also has something in it that we could truly say that's unique. [b]Admit it, some of you even follow how those K-pop and J-pop girls dress as well as the words they say.[/b]

[quote=LADYLIAH17;#3543744;1272242716]BTW, to the author, SH3 isn't an upcoming girl group. I think they are aready disband? But it is sadi they are searching for a new name because thre is a taiwanes? I'm not sure..that have the same name as them. Well, it's kinda disappointing coz i like their forst single move, even they say the steps are like KPOP, the song is so catchy xD[/quote] yea.. i also noticed that. SHE (taiwanese group) = SH3 (PPOP group)
