   BIBI is a singer that I don't know too much about. She has a lot of respect in the South Korean music game right now but she isn't quite a mega star yet. I've heard her singles on and off. Some of the tracks I like, while others aren't my style. She finally released a full length album led by single "Animal Farm"; a pop rock track with a hip hop flare concluded using a mean guitar solo. Noir is an album that feels like BIBI hasn't really found herself as an artist yet. Her music bounces all around genres without creating a solid idea for her vision musically. I've heard this girl be cute in songs only to strip the whole image for a street girl concept that she also wears well. The album has wonderful moments such as "Witch Hunt" as well as BIBI Vengeance where she sings as a cool collected vocalist who knows what kind of artist she wants to be. Then again we have tracks on the album that don't feel like her. They are overproduced using autotune with Rap punchlines that feel more fitted for some other artist. I can't say I really know BIBI after listening to her first full effort. What I can say is that she's talented and has a future in music. 






   BIBI has a foxy voice that's suggestive, yet girly when need be. It's a vocal quality that demands attention because there's no other female singers in Korea that sound like her at the moment. She will be a totally knock out when she truely finds herself musically.
