Opinion: 4minute - Crazy

So I'm a few hours late! But I'm a bit busy, but amongst the running around I managed to fit in 3 views of 4Minute's new MV "Crazy"... 






There has already been tons of reviews about this song already, I mean this comeback has been extremely hyped for a while now, so that's a given. The majority of the feedback that I've seen has been really positive, even Blackjacks have managed to cease their witch hunt against 4Minute to appreciate this release (who could predict that would happen?). So this song hasn't exactly grown on me like "Whatcha Doin' Today" initially did, though I see that potentially happening if I give it maybe another listen. I must say though, I'm so, so glad that my prediction of "Cold Rain" only being an intro track, frankly 4Minute suits the style that they opted to go with for this new song.

On to what I liked! From the get go, this song has a powerful presence, Hyuna's rap style in this song is similar to what she does in her solos, which is something I really enjoyed about this. All of the members were styled well (which is something that their stylist has been doing really well since 2013), particularly Jiyoon, who I can't quite get over in this comeback (I may be biased on this because I also have green hair, but who knows).

The green hair is hawt and has helped her to stand out a lot better

What was lacking? Sohyun's presence wasn't particularly strong, her sections felt underwhelming amongst the proceeding and following sections in the song. The same can be said for Jihyun's sections in the song, for a leader she isn't really represented as one, is she? 

I'm going to give the whole mini album a listen and if I feel like it I'll probably review all the songs on there (besides Crazy, of course).
