Producer CL Blows Away 2NE1 Members

Girl group 2NE1 (CL, Minzy, Park Bom and Sandara Park) revealed leader CL's capabilities as a producer.

On the 20th at 3 P.M in Gyeonggi Do, Goyang Si, Ilsan, 2NE1 held their rehearsal inside the Kintex (Korea International Exhibit Center) for their second world tour 'All or Nothing' as well as a press conference for their soon to be released album.

Minzy claimed, "I was shocked after hearing CL's compositions. Despite having a busy schedule of preparing and practicing for the comeback, she took time to record, compose, and write tracks. I thought it was amazing how creative these songs were."

Sandara Park added, "CL composed and wrote a total of 3 tracks. Because they were so different from each other it was refreshing to hear. Since she knows all of us individually, CL was able to accentuate our distinct colors in the songs; it was a new experience especially after being used to working with Teddy. During the recording of these songs, I believe my true voice has come out after 6 years of hiding; it was fun. I thought 'Crush' was a foreign track until CL told me it was her work."

Finally, the leader herself decided to speak up, "These songs were not originally written or composed for this album. I didn't know 2NE1 would even be singing them as a group. I get easily inspired when I'm bored. When I'm at home, I want to talk about several different things. That's when I thought, 'What would it be like if I talked about these things from my perspective?' 'What would it be like if I added my own voice?'. This naturally led to my compositions. What struck me the most was that I didn't know I could write decent lyrics in Korean. It's only been a few months since I've started making songs, but everything seems like it's going smoothly. I am thankful for the opportunity and extremely excited but worried as well."

When asked what is her favorite amongst the three songs she says, "Because each has a unique color and like children to me I cannot choose."

Park Bom, however, responded, "My favorite is 'Baby I Miss You'. I love it to the point that I want to ask her if I can use it for my solo. I had no idea she could compose and write this well. You can expect it to be amazing."

2NE1 will open their world tour this upcoming March 1st and 2nd in the Olympic Park SK Handball Stadium. Starting in Korea, they will move on to Japan, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore with at total of 9 countries, 12 cities and 15 concerts.
