In this series we remember songs that have been forgotten or were never even given the attention they deserved. Today's Hidden Gem is Mama by Nicole
Nicole is a legend and she's my bias in KARA. This is one of my most favorite solo songs of all time. She looks so attractive in this music video and the song is really catchy. I love the instrumental a lot, I love her voice, I just love everything. This was her first song after leaving KARA and it was looking like she could have been a top female soloist.
Unfortunately Nicole was on hiatus FOREVER. She was under Spica's label and they did nothing for her. Eventually I gave up hope that she'd ever make a comeback. After nearly 8 years and switching companies she made her first comeback. One year later she had her successful reunion with KARA. In February last year she made another solo comeback which was amazing.
