First Look S2 EPS 2 | CL - The Baddest Female, Spicy, Lover Like Me, & Let It | REACTION

[@caitlinbensonn]

SHE GOT THE SAUCE AND IT’S SPICY! 🔥 - reminder because I see that most of you aren’t watching the intro. This series is pre-filmed so everything has already been decided, filmed, edited, and scheduled. I’m not taking any added requests for my sanity. I know she has more music than what we looked at but as stated this is the best way for me. Who’s ready for EPS 3? 👀

[@MinghaoYouDoin]

Episode three is gonna be lit!! I hope you have enjoyed making them! I have arranged First look S2 timetable into my study timetable 😭

@@momofeatherpen8357 👁👄👁… please read her comment before typing, it looked like she really liked CL’s music and I’m sure she will probably listen to some of her music in her own time but all of the videos in this series are pre recorded.

I love Cl. A suggestion when you can react the group G-idle have very good songs, visuals and vocals. I love your reactions 😍😍

[@rose0613]

STORYTIME (might be a long one, sorry haha) CL debuted in 2009 as the leader of 2NE1 (she was 17-18 like what??) and 2NE1 really broke a lot of boundaries for girlgroups (they were also the most awarded group at the MAMA in 2009 and 2010, their POWER UGH), they were so so so huge for kpop and they disbanded in 2016. 2NE1 was often advertised as the "talented but ugly" group at the time, CL said somewhere that YG even asked her to get plastic surgery, but she refused...! After their disbandment, CL got like one release after that, Lifted in 2016, and that was mostly it, we barely heard from her, barely saw her at events (when we did it was to do the same songs over and over). It's a bit unclear to me if it's because YG thought that she wasn't marketable anymore (and they had BP to focus on at that time) or if they didn't want to release her music the way she wanted, but yeah, it was a really hard time for her since she was kind of stuck in her contract with them and couldn't express herself through her art anymore. Her contract ended in 2019 and the week after she released In the Name of Love (I highly recommend it, I think you would really like it) and beside the song names, there's the date when she wrote the song and when we look at the timeline it often matches with important events in her life and they're just beautiful beautiful songs to me (I cried for a month listening to it lol) And in 2020, she announced her FIRST album (in 13 years of career) ALPHA, she wrote all the songs and it was produced by her independent label Very Cherry :) I cannot tell you how much I cried when she released the first songs (HWA and 5Star) haha I first saw CL when I was 14 years old, and at that time I really needed someone in my life to show me that being a woman isn't only being soft spoken, delicate and pretty you know ? CL broke so many female stereotypes for me and she always reminds me that there's not only one way to be a woman. And from that moment I just never stopped being her fan and wishing for her to release more music, which is why ALPHA is so special to me. To see her so happy to make music and perform again feels a bit like a dream haha And you're right, she is a ✨PERFORMER ✨ when you have time, definitely watch her performances !!! She has a killing verse video (like the one you watched for mamamoo) if you want to get an idea of her work from the earlier years ☺️ : kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4fFeqZqicp3hbM This got way too long haha i'm just very passionate lol Thank you so so so so much for this video !! you're the best, i love youuuu so much ! (If you have questions about her or 2NE1, let me know 😎)

[@LuciKaede]

as a fellow 2ne1 fan that has grew up with the girls (i found them when i was 13) i can't describe how beautiful this is written! they have truly shown us how to be different, unique and how to break the ''delicate and softspoken'' stereotypes. i won't say the ''pretty'' because they have always been the prettiest to me 😂

[@rose0613]

@@LuciKaede Oh yeah definitely ! I meant pretty as in the society's beauty standard for women that I don't fit in and that our girls had to fight too, but they are so beautiful to me too !

[@eli-sg9gp]

"i see a lot of bad boy and bad girl concepts in k-pop, and i think she brings her own style to that" cl started the bad girl concept in k-pop. everything we see nowadays, even blackpink's vibe, is bc of her making that concept marketable back in 2009-2013-ish (with her former band, 2ne1). her & 2ne1's impact on the female idol industry is absolutely ridiculous, and impossible to rlly drive home if you didn't see it. the baddest female was unlike anything anyone had ever done at the time

Let It was a song worked with her group, 2NE1 but never got released. YG did them really dirty on their last years of activity so the song kinda feels like when you took all the punches, got knocked out but still stood up and conquered!!! Her journey (and the group's) is really inspiring, if there's one lesson to take is to never give up, no matter what.

[@Scythe07]

thank you for reacting to CL's songs. Her artistry never disappoints as you can see in her music, production, fashion..hands down. As her fan way back as 2NE1 this means alot, really appreciate this. Hoping for a Part 2 or 3 or more, yeah?

[@dso2010]

CL actually intended for “Let It” to be 2NE1’s reunion song. For context, 2NE1 was sabotaged by YG and the members were blamed for the disbandment when they actually wanted to stay together. Back in 2014, 2NE1’s main vocalist Park Bom had a police case from 4 years prior resurface (some suspect as a cover-up to news of government corruption contributing to the Sewol Ferry tragedy) and basically ruin her career: she used to live in the USA when younger and was prescribed Adderall as treatment for her ADD. Back in 2010, Bom had Adderall shipped to her grandmother’s house in Korea. As the consumption isn’t legal in Korea, she was investigated and charges were dropped. 4 years later, this resurfaced and the media basically treated Bom as a drug smuggler, and YG didn’t even do the bare minimum to clear her name. That year, 2NE1 completed their world tour and went into hiatus, with Bom not even being present at a year end award ceremony. At that time, CL already had plans to jump start her career in the US and potentially have 2NE1 cross over too, working with many worldwide producers and making many connections. She spent the year of 2015 working on her solo music and released Hello Bi+ches as what was supposed to be the lead single of her debut album. We only really saw 2NE1 back together a year after their tour ended, in December 2015. CL was supposed to perform her song but after she ended the members surprised us all and came out from the floor and performed what would be their last stage together (at the time, we thought they were gearing up for a comeback). A few months later, main dancer/lead rapper Minzy left the group and YG (years later she opened up and we found out she was experiencing s***idal feelings and was unhappy with being in hiatus for almost two years). YG announced that Minzy was leaving but the remaining 3 members (CL, Bom and Dara) would have a summer comeback album. Upon hearing the news, CL immediately dropped everything she was doing in the US and flew to Korea to make that album and try to salvage 2NE1, even if as a trio. Months went by and the album never got released. All their work went to waste. By the end of 2016, YG announced 2NE1’s disbandment and in the beginning of 2017, 2NE1 (sans Minzy) released “Goodbye”, the final single. CL wrote the lyrics as a letter to Minzy and was supposed to release the song as part of her solo album. YG blamed the disbandment on Minzy leaving, Bom’s scandal and CL’s solo efforts (the same CL that dropped everything for 2NE1 and always stated that 2NE1 was the priority over her solo work). After 2NE1’s disbandment, CL still had her contract with YG as a soloist and was still working very hard and making many connections with top artists and producers. At one point she was being represented by Scooter Braun (who also manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande) but even he got tired of YG always sabotaging CL. She even got to film a few music videos and recorded a lot of songs and collaborations, but sadly nothing apart from her 2016 single “Lifted” was released. On New Year’s Day 2018, a very frustrated CL leaked snippets of an unreleased music video for the song “All In” on Instagram. She said she had shot “All In” over a year prior and “may get into trouble” for leaking it, but wanted to give something to her fans. Around that time, she began making less and less public appearances and had a very sudden weight gain (which was surprising because she used to work very hard on her fitness). It was obvious that she was very stressed and frustrated with the path her career was going. Still, she absolutely killed her performance at the 2018 Winter Olympics closing ceremony. In 2019, CL’s contract with YG finally ended and she released her digital EP “In The Name of Love” independently with 6 songs that she had saved for herself over the years between 2NE1’s hiatus and the end of her contract. Each song has the date it was written on the title, so it’s kind of like a diary, and each song has a music video, but CL herself doesn’t appear on any of the videos and held no promotions for the album. She didn’t even make public appearances at the time. 2019 was also the year Bom’s name was finally cleared: after a TV show similar to 20/20 had an episode about her scandal, she gathered the courage to speak up and reveal that she suffered from ADD and her prescription drug was Adderall and the whole incident was a misunderstanding (back then YG only gave a half ass statement talking about Bom’s teenage trauma of watching a colleague die on the field in the middle of a soccer match, which had nothing to do with her ADD, and didn’t really go in detail or try to further explain the situation). Alpha is CL’s long awaited debut album after all these struggles. It’s the album that she worked hard on since 2019 and was supposed to release in 2020 (she released the songs “Hwa” and “5 Star” from the album as lead singles) before deciding she needed to improve it (and before her mom sadly passed away in the beginning of 2021, which further delayed her plans). The 2NE1 members are all still very supportive of each other and they only didn’t release “Let It” because at the time of recording, Minzy was busy promoting her solo single. But CL had Bom and Dara record their parts (Dara sings the pre-chorus and Bom sings the chorus and ad libs in the end, and Minzy is supposed to have the first verse and the bridge). For the album recording of “Let It”, CL even changed her style of singing those parts to sound more like the other members. She sings it in her own style live and you can see the difference. CL said she still plans on releasing 2NE1’s version of Let It and having a group reunion soon.

[@babybear1588]

Omg thank you for this!! I’ve been a blackjack for a very long time but I have been off the kpop area for a bit especially after 2ne1 broke up. I didn’t know how ridiculously they were treated! The fact that the “drug” was medication for ADD and it was an old case that only resurfaced… YG really did nothing for them ):

[@dso2010]

@@babybear1588 the way that Bom was treated is just criminal. Being there all the time and watching her being maligned for a mental health condition, not able to speak up, not being defended even by the people who would contractually benefit from her name being cleared… it just hurt. CL had years of her hard work and artistry (and tbh a huge opportunity of breaking in the US market in the mid 2010s as a main pop girl) thrown in the trash. MInzy had absolutely zero schedules for two years before deciding leaving, even though she had an entire solo album recorded since 2011 and shelved. Dara said multiple times, in tears, how much she loved being on stage and how it was her true passion in life, and still got ignored. YG truly deserves every bad thing that happens to them.

[@babybear1588]

@Danny Lopez I’ve caught up on some stuff over the years, and the more I hear the more baffled I am at the whole situation. I’ve been a fan of them since I was young, so I pretty much consider it a big part of my childhood. It’s weird to say but the more I hear the more I respect each member. Each of them had their own hardships. I was so worried that their relationship as a group and friends/family drifted due to YG, but I’ve never been happier to see that each of them are happier and still pushing through!!! The Coachella reunion was probably the most amazing thing that could have happened after all this mess. I know they did it for BlackJacks too but I know it meant so much for themselves to be back up there together as one again and to prove to so many people that they are and still always will be 2ne1. I’m just really happy for them.

Yes, a transparency Queen! She said as well that slowly the boundaries between her personal Chaelin and the persona CL has blurred for her new album. That is why we can see and feel her true essence as an artist. She is free, evolving, and attractive like never before as a human and as an artist. She just now being herself and we know she can give more.

CL is the ult Queen 👑 no one NO ONE can reach her level 🔥

[@melcdiamond]

I love that CL did the rap part in Korean in Lover Like Me (I had to checked the english translation afterwards, but I think she didn't leave Eng translation intentionally because of her pride for Korea)! K-pop songs nowadays are mostly Korean with some English words or rap thrown in there, and CL flipped it with mostly English and then Korean rap. I thought that was brilliant.

She's the Queen. Yes she self produced her music.. You should react to her other videos like Hello Bitches, 5 star & more and videos of her group 2NE1 (they were the best girl group on that era) She also has a version of Let It with her group mate.. Hope CL can also release it..

[@ahna2ne1]

OMG I LOVE THIS. I really love new K-pop fans when they react to CL cause as you said she really is an artist. 2NE1 is the first K-pop girl group that started that badass concept. She's the leader of the group and before they disbanded she was producing their songs. She does self produce. Alpha is such a special album for her and for us fans who have waited for her. She have been through a lot, the group and her journey as a solo artist. Glad you reacted to her so thank you si much. Rose, whoever you are, thank you! You're a GZB through & through!! She's forever going to be my forever bias, no matter how many groups I stan and how many artist I love.

the "Let it" is supposed to be a reunion song with her 2NE1 members, she even let us hear the demo(u can find on yt) in like her live/virtual interview/event but since the members are busy with their schedules, they didn't finished recording. i think that's one of the reasons why it's very personal and special. we could've get a mini 2NE1 reunion

[@JR-eo8cy]

CL goes so hard, whether it's tough rap, sad songs, inspirational jams...feelings come through loud and clear every time. Be sure to check out 5 star, it's my personal fave but they're honestly all good to great, never misses.

[@liahavenstravels9789]

This is getting me emotional. 2ne1 is the first ever ever group I stan and they introduce me to Kpop way back 2009. Let It is supposedly a 2ne1 song. And whenever CL is singing the part pre-chorus and chorus which was supposedly for Dara and Bom...it hit hard. The girls was wasted by that company and I hope someday 2ne1 will reunite again. Hi, Caitlin! I’m a silent viewer but with you featuring these legendary groups again made me reminisce the old Kpop, and I can’t help but comment 😂 By the way, if you have time, watch MTB by CL. You don’t have to record that one. It’s just one of my fave :)

She has gone thru some things but as she said in the lyrics, "Let It". oh i love CL from the bottom of my heart. moon and back.

2ne1 was the first korean group that i listened and loved it. They are amazing and one of the biggest kpop group! Really hope they comeback one day!! And CL is my has always been my favourite rapper and korean artist, now together with Hwasa ! 😍😍😍

[@adcisla5112]

The best CL reaction I've ever seen because you get it and we saw it through each song. Thank you for checking out CL! She's the Queen! She really is an artist, like you stated and has empowering messages. I hope you continue to react to CL!

[@jeweleeee7765]

This was a nice surprise! CL is someone I have followed since I was younger and Let it is my favorite track from her. It really resonates with me and also is a great way of telling her story.

[@LazicNikola]

I'm so happy you love her, and I hope we'll get a part two with: Lifted, 5 Star, Hello Bitches, Post Up and HWA ♥ You should check out her ALPHA performance on her channel and her projects IN THE NAME OF LOVE and ALPHA

OH MY GOD CAITLIN!!!! YOU REACTED TO ONE OF MY QUEENs (2ne1)!!! Thank you for making my day once again T^T ilysm and i hope you're having a great day!!! EDIT: Let It is supposed to be a 2ne1 comeback so it really is a personal piece (and it's my fave in CL's latest album hehe)

[@Alice-ps9cr]

hope you consider diving into her former group 2ne1! they are one of the iconic female kpop groups because of their experimental music and fashion. AND THEY SET THE STANDARD FOR KPOP PERFORMANCE AS WELL

You need to get acquainted with CL and her old group 2NE1 (twenty-one). She is a Queen!

[@daskooiguess4787]

I absolutely love your reaction, you had me smiling and laughing throughout the entire video! I appreciate your good vibes in this video so much, thank you for reacting to CL!!

[@mteumetreasure5690]

CL she is a DEITY OF KPOP

[@rose0613]

23:00 COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER YES

[@aushi6251]

CL and 2ne1 made it okay to do girl crush concept for the whole kpop community. "Let it" is my fav, too btw. i hope you'll react to her other songs like done, tie a cherry, rewind and many more.

[@rose0613]

Don't mind me rewatching this lol hehe

[@rebeckaroy6790]

So fun to watch you do this Caitlin, what a great choice. 2NE1 was part of my first intro to kpop back in the day and also the only girl group I really followed. They are such legends and all of them, especially CL, made such an impact on me. (One day I'd love to see you react to their MAMA performance from 2015)
