Big Mama
Big Mama (빅 마마) is a 4-member Korean vocal group signed under M-boat Entertainment Group & YG Entertainment. Their music has a heavy emphasis on R&B but also has a pop feel to it.
The members were chosen through a nation-wide audition held by M-boat Entertainement Group & YG Entertainment that lasted for about 2 years. The head of both companies wanted to form a group that focused more on the music rather than the artists' looks. The result was Big Mama, a 4-piece group with "big women" with impressive vocal talents. The group's debut album was well received by music fans and topped music charts.
Their talent is not only recognized in Korea but also by the foreign music industry. In late 2005, the quartet was formally invited by American R&B-group Boyz II Men to hold a concert together. Both groups were busy promoting their albums at that time and by November of 2005, the two groups performed in a few selected areas in Korea.
To date Big Mama has released 3 albums and continues to be one of the most successful female vocal group in Korea.
