[Supremacy]

Year is not over yet

[Rumiiee]

year as yet to be over

the rest of the year i think it will be YG's year

[Saka]

As of right now. Yes.

But with 2ne1 and Big Bang coming back, who knows. Though honestly I don't really care, I'm just praying for some SM x YG special stages at the Gayos. kthx

[2ne1 dolja]

i think half of the year is SM's and the other falf is for YG .

2ne will be coming back soon . as well as bigbang ,

[garken]

just like what others said,2010 is not yet over.

[Rxxx]

That worthless filth released by YG will never touch SM's superior talent and artists.

[goldigga5]

Once it hits September, honestly, i think YG is gonna dominate the second half.

SM packed all there artists in the first half. SNSD, SUJU, F(x), SHINee, BoA all did their comebacks in the first half more than the second. (if that makes sense)

Who care's who owns when....
Just like Saka said, i'm just waiting for all the special stages at the end of the year.

[dewi.s]

2/3 of the year yes
1/3 of the year it might go to YG but since SM has so many artists they might surprise us in the later month and make one of their artists do another comeback

[babypanda]

Not really...year not even over yet.
Considering the hype with 2NE1 comeback I think YG going to get the rest of the year.

Wow~ and YG fans are bad? SM fans trash on YG too... I mean what make SM better than YG. They both make lots of money and their artists win lots of awards. Both got well known artists. And both have their disadvantages.

Seriously kpop fans need to stop bashing on each other. Friendly competition is ok. This crap is not ok...

[NiuuKuun]

OMG,
I KEPT SAYING THAT EVERYWHERE BUT NO ONE AGREED.

But yeah the year isn't over yet.

But then again SM has promoted at least 2/3rd of their artists~. (well I think so? They might have some groups I don't know about~)

Let's just make it the year of both XD!

ewwwwwwwww ;O
gg o_o;;

[Rock30815]

I guess, biasness aside. At this point, it seems so. I just wish SM had more diversity in their music. Every song kinda sounds like the next.

[YunieUmma]

Yes.
Well, not the whole year, since it isn't over yet.
And 2NE1 is about to comeback, but 9 months is really decent, right?

[nobodynose]

It's Still September. 2NE1 Is Back. I Don't Know. Maybe Not. yet

[Mr.AznMusikMan]

I think that SM owned the first half of the year. but yg got some hits in there too during the first half like se7ens better together and taeyang's i need a girl and i'll be there. but 2ne1 is gathering a lot of hype lately so who knows.....

[bqueen]

SM is also making more money this year than they ever have before.

Se7en did pretty badly though actually. Album didn't sell more than 10k and his song didn't do well digitally either.

[KalexiS]

No because it's about quality... so remove "Oh", SNSD's entire album, Suju "Bonamana" (which sounded almost exactly like "Sorry Sorry") & "RDR"...which they bought...

SM props (as in good): "Lucifer", BoA, and F(x) thus far imo...

so as far as i'm concerned... this is a typical year for SM... some pretty good stuff and then a lot of 'w/e' that ofc does well because of the groups releasing it...

Maybe by the numbers it's been SM's year...

I think this year, i'll tilt my hat to DSP and Pledis...Numbers being irrelevant, these two companies have show some pretty obvious growth imo (aka, the raised their own bars)...they just don't have the same number of artists as SM to pimp out.

To me, that's what gauges a year of success... growth.

Your worthless filthy comment was not necessary. Superior talent my ass, both companies have above amazing artists. Filthy people like you makes it hard for people to appreciate both companies hard work.
