From the retro sound to electronic sounds, Wonder Girls has achieved to maintain their unique flavor, being able to appease their original WonderFul fans and having a great potential to attract more Western fans. Wonder Girls is able to show that even in their endeavor to succeed in the US, they can stay classy, sexy, and trendy. After being away for so long, then returning with their 2nd full album, Wonder World, Wonder Girls showed their growth during their hiatus in the US, and from their previous hit, "Like This", and now, "Like Money", Wonder Girls just keeps showing how much quality music triumphs over quantity after having been gone for so long. "Like Money" is electronic, but it still has that specific sound and rhythm that can easily still be identified as Kpop, making it a good blend of Kpop and Western-influenced music. While at first listen, it sounds a bit superficial to be asked to be loved like materialistic things, a closer look at the lyrics show empowered, strong, sexy women telling the men to step it up if they want to be with these women.
I hope this collaboration will be met with a great reception from the US. Akon adds a nice, US touch to the song, and as a whole, the song can reach a wider audience.
WONDER GIRLS, HWAITING!
