Overrated?! M doesn’t get enough recognition!!

taken fromK Bites:


Group Big Bang leader GDragon has been voted #1 by netizens as the ‘Overrated
singer songwriter’.

Community site DCInside did a poll on the question
“Which singer songwrite do you think is overrated?” from 22nd to 29th September.
And GDragon was given 8133 (52.6%) votes out of 15,467 votes, coming in at #1.

Go under the cut to find out who else was voted on the survey.

GDragon has been writing many songs since he was in Big Bang like
‘Lies’, ‘Last Farewell’ etc. But he was under plagiarism accusations with the
release of his solo debut song ‘Heartbreaker’ released last month. And that was
why he was voted in #1 on the survey.

Coming in at #2 is singer producer
Park Jin Young with 1049 votes (6.8%). Park Jin Young has written many hits like
‘Don’t Leave Me’, ‘Behind you’, ‘That girl is pretty’ and ‘Honey’ etc. He always
promised new and fresh music every time, but he has been under accusations of
plagiarism several times as well.

At #3 is singer Lee Min Woo with 1007
votes (6.5%). He has been writing lyrics since his time in Shinhwa. After that
he wrote the lyrics for several hits like Jewelry’s ‘Super Star’ and ‘One More
Time’ and V.O.S ‘Beautiful Life’. And subsequently for his solo album there were
songs which were written by him but as compared to his lyrics-writing
capabilities, there was not much acknowledgement given to his song-writing
skills.

The rest of the survey results:

1. GDragon
2. Park
Jin Young
3. Lee Min Woo
4. MC Mong
5. Jang Gi Ha
6. Yozoh
7. Seo Taiji



from Su-mi@absolutshinhwa: I can’t say for everyone on the list, and I don’t know what is it that defines ‘overrated’ for the pollmakers. As far as I’m concerned, ‘overrated’ means ‘rated more highly than is deserved’ – M always puts out great albums but for some reason they rarely sell well – how in Shinhwa’s name does that constitute as ‘overrated’……..?! -_-*
