My Album/Song Review:
1. "Miss Sistar" (ft. Duble Sidekick, Joohun) - Actually, I'm not surprised with Sistar having the voice of men joining in their album. I have listened to Sistar Albums, since. And having voices other than Sistar's on their album is fine with me. Sistar got this "My Girl/ Ma Girl Aura" for the opposite sex and it's a good thing. I believe they sell on both men and women. For example, unlike on a Sistar Album, I believe a man will find it hard to buy albums of A Pink or SNSD. Maybe, in Korea it's a regular thing; but I'm talking about international fans here. I can imagine a man picking up an Album of Sistar and won't worry about what the cashier will think of him. I can also imagine a man picking up an A Pink album and will worry about what the cashier will think of him... 'til the next 2 days after picking up the album. LOL. That's the only thing I'll say to this, I hope you'll get my point.

2. "Give It To Me" - I will compare this comeback song to Sistar's or Sistar 19's previous comeback songs. Let's be honest, this song is good but it's not that good. Compared to "Alone", Sistar's previous single, This song is better in some ways but it's not that powerful enough. For me, "Ma Boy", "Loving You" or "So Cool", just to name a few, are way better than this song.

What I hate about this: Like I said, it's just not powerful enough in a way that it will not mark compared to previous and epic Sistar songs/ singles. Yes, I'm comparing it to their previous singles. Why? What's the point of coming back, if you're not getting better?

What I like about it: In this song, every member were used wisely and correctly. Everyone was noticed and no one was left behind. Unlike their other songs, I can say this song is NOT Hyorin's song. I know, it's not only me who whenever listens to Sistar songs, feels like it's 90% Hyorin doing the work. In this song, Dasom and Soyou were perfect on verses. Hyorin, as usual, nailed her part. Bora is so bad-ass that I'll give it to her! I'm sorry to say this but without Bora being herself (that bad-ass beautiful chick...) and with her owning her part, this song will suck. She carried this song and balanced it to a bad-ass, sexy song. Of course, Hyorin, Soyou and Dasom did their part too but it's not as bad-ass as Bora's. I'll Give it to them, if you'll ask me! lol.
