First Charice (the girl got David Foster and Opes behind her, enough said), then MAYBE Rain (waits for the movie) or Se7en (I'll wait until his video is released, but I'm very skeptical)... I'm not sure about BoA yet (the reception for Eat U Up was meh, plus that accent is still waaay too thick for a lot of people to fully get in to).

Utada Hikaru is also coming back. Well, she released (two?) albums in the US before, but she wasn't that successful...

LOL personally I think it will be Charice. She's doing great. Her voice is just too amazing to miss.
Maybe BoA as well. She seems to be doing okay so far... well, at least better than Se7en.

I wish an actual Asian American would make it big in America.

I don't really care if any of them become popular but since Rain, BoA, and Charice have all had some publicity, things are looking better for them than they are for Se7en, even though he was on some CD right?

BoA's chances seem to be ok, I know a lot of people who had no idea who she was before and now really like Eat You Up.

At this point Boa can forget it
SM better try again.

I can't really say, as much talent alot of the artists have it comes down to promotion.

Rain will known as an actor which I think will help him as a singer, SE7EN could have been successful if he had decent management, it saddens me because I know boy has talent off teh chain and he can't expose it right sad.gif

Charice will probably be the most successful. She's working with the American producer who worked on Andrea Bocelli! Now that's a team that will make a star succesful!

Yeah and she probably has a lot more appeal because she's young. Like "oh my god she's so amazing and she's young!". I think we all gush more over kids with amazing talents.

In my opinion, Utada and Charlice are the only one that have a chance to make it big in the US
Charlice because she has gotten alot of exposure in big shows and with other big celebrities.
Utada because she seriously have talent and she is American born, people might be more willing to accept her and she speaks english.

In America, all you really need to hit it big is publicity and catchy songs, and of couse english skills.

one more chance ...

Utada could make it a lot farther then where Boa is , and thats due to the fact that shes American born , doesnt have an english accent and she has a lot better vocals as well. As for Rain , he hasnt done much in his singing career in America but has been focusing on acting from what I see.

To be honest , I dont really give a crap for overseas Asian artists to make it to the American music scene . I'd very much rather see more Asian American talent coming out .

charice definitely ..
the girl can sing, has charisma, and can dance (although not of pop star caliber yet)

boa.. i guess she has the potential..
although i don't like sm, he's a genius and definitely knows what he's doing
but its just boa herself that's the setback
her engrish is not pleasing to the ears and her vocal capabilities are very questionable

se7en? lol he should just really forget it
however, from what i've seen..
out of the hopefuls from korea, he can actually converse in english naturally
*cringes as she remembers boa*
the problem is.. him and his music..
its mediocre.. mediocre.. oh and mediocre..
he looks like a mega wannabe..
seriously, why pick the mediocre wannabe when you've already got the real thing there (usher, chris brown, justin timberlake etc etc)

rain is so-so
he's getting the best publicity out of the korean hopefuls.. not as a singer/entertainer but as just himself, rain
if he continues the acting path, he looks like he'll do well.. not as phenomenal as he did in asia though

utada hikaru.. should just stay in japan

I really think Rain should stick to movies.
He has potential to be the next asian action star.

It'd be nice if Se7en makes an impact, but RMQ is not doing a great job handling his debut.
Also, the songs they give him aren't "great".
He definitely has talent though.

Agree.

I really think Rains got the voice to make it in America and the style but he just needs to get the English down to become really successful.
