America's Billboard headlined an article about CL's performance at 'Ultra Music Festival.'

Recently, America's Billboard headlined an article about CL's performance at 'Ultra Music Festival.' In the article, Billboard wrote, "While it was undoubtedly a huge stage for all the artists involved, a remarkable musical moment happened during the 2NE1 member's six-minute appearance that no one would have likely imagined happening."

They also wrote, "CL first hit the stage to perform her verse from 'Dirty Vibe,' the Skrillex/Diplo collaboration that features fellow K-pop superstar G-Dragon," and "But after the "Dirty Vibe" snippet, fans heard the unmistakable Puff Daddy beat from 1997 hit 'It's All About Benjamins.' But what came next wasn't Diddy rapping, but CL rapping...in Korean."

Billboard continued, "The 24-year-old whipped out the verses to her solo K-pop banger 'MTBD' -- an cut off from 2NE1's record-breaking Crush album -- over the '90s beat, rapping completely in Korean for the massive Miami crowd. All while Skrillex, Diplo and even Sir Diddy himself watched and supported from the booth."

Billboard lastly added, "It was a breakthrough moment for Korean music thanks to an artist who is massive in Asia, but is relatively unknown stateside, but worked to hard to collaborate and prove herself among some of music's biggest talents. If this performance is any indication, we won't be getting any type of 'Westernized' CL, but one that retains her individual state of badass-ery and can fit comfortably inside the U.S. scene whether she's singing in English or Korean."

Meanwhile, CL recently signed a management contract with producer Scooter Braun's SB PROJECT for her official US debut.
