Bird's-eye-view of YG's new building to be completed in next year July

Instiz : Bird's-eye-view of YG's new building to be completed in next year July - Right in the middle of a residential area... - They don't even do much projects and yet they have a fancy building - If they keep messing up the artists, I'm going to break a window because I probably spent that much - SM and YG don't seem to be doing much, do they need a big building like that? I can understand only if each group has their own practice room and recording room - The artists must've worked hard for that... - Pretty! It looks like a speaker - It looks out of place... Is it because it stands out from the area?

TV Show discusses how 'swag' and 'Show Me The Money' falsify hip-hop

Kisum: People use 'swag' a lot these days. I feel like the word is being overused. Swag used to mean one's own charm, but the meaning has changed. Tyler: I heard the word a lot. I'm sick of it. The reason why swag started to be used for "coolness" is because of the hip-hop industry. In fact, swag originated from minor cultures like "I'm proud of myself because I'm different from you." I think the meaning of the word changed a lot in Korea. In the US, the word is used by hip-hoppers only. The fact that people whose identify isn't associated with hip-hop use swag is weird. If 'Show Me The Money' gets known to the US, it will receive negative responses because it won't be seen as hip-hop. In my opinion, to identify hip-hop, you have to ask if they were being pressured socially or if they fought against the system to reach where they are. If you succeeded without a big struggle, it's very offensive the US. MC: Amer...
