[NEWS] BIGBANG'S BAD BOY RANKS #2 FOR "THE 5 VIDEOS OF THE WEEK" ON STEREOGUM

2. BigBang – “Bad Boy”

The Korean pop assembly line is a truly wondrous thing. The country is cranking out absurdist, high-gloss, stick-in-your-brain music videos at a ridiculous rate these days, and I am entirely capable of losing entire hours just by clicking from one YouTube link to the next. From what I can tell, the biggest boy band in the country is BigBang, whose new video, a take on American ’90s-R&B ruffneck love songs, was inexplicably filmed outside a Williamsburg JMZ stop. The choreography is no-shit delightful, the clothes are wonderfully goofy, and the song is dangerously catchy. Pay special attention to group member T.O.P., who manages to comport himself with sleepy-eyed bad-motherfucker panache while wearing a military waistcoat, a gigantic bejeweled-skull medallion, and turquoise Gumby hair.
