The Beat Junkies

For years the Western World has been ignoring/not receiving Asian music. It’s never made it big. This is now about to change, this change comes in the form of BoA (Best of Asia), a Korean artist taking the world by storm specializing in hip-hop and RnB.
Born in 1986, BoA Kwon (stage name BoA), has been training up on how to make it in the music industry. Having been releasing music since 2000 she has only just decided to grab the US’s attention and, wow, is she ready for it.
With better dance moves than Usher, Ne-Yo and Justin Timberlake put together this girls work ethic is inspiring. In Japan she has had six consecutive No.1 studio albums, quite honestly, she’s just someone we should all look up to if your at all interested in making it big in another country. I mean she’s fluent in English, Korean, Japanese to name but a few.
When it was decided for BoA to goto America her label, SM Entertainment, created an American subsidiary label to release her through. Her first English single, Eat You Up, was released in the US on the 22nd of October and was released a day earlier in the UK. It peaked in the US Billboard Charts at No.12, after little promotion, she also ranked at No.1 for the Billboard Hot Dance Club Party Chart. The single, Eat You Up, also got remixed by US Rapper Flo Rida in November 2008.

So people get ready it is BoA’s year and her first English Speaking album is soon to be released, titled “Look Who’s Talking” , she has moved to California and is living there currently whilst finishing the album. Ohh yeah …. I forgot to mention, she’s quite good looking as well!
