88rising returns with another year of Head in the Clouds festival, featuring BIBI, Chung Ha, Jay Park, Dumbfoundead, Tiger JK, Yoonmirae, and more.
Dumbfoundead has dropped his new single “All Alone” today, which was produced by Vintage Spaceship (Big Banana and Chucky Kim).
Music is a cornerstone of black culture. R&B is a descendant of the Negro spiritual. Hip hop is the voice of black and brown youth. Both genres come from great struggle. They’re voices for the disenfranchised, the exploited, the abused, and murdered. R&B and hip hop have become worldwide influences for all cultures and people. This, of course, includes the people of South Korea. Many singers, rappers, producers, songwriters, and composers gain inspiration from these genres and as a result profit from black culture and black fans.
Dumbfoundead has released a two song collaborative quarantine project titled “Inside/Outside” with Cambodian-American singer Satica, produced by Big Banana.
Parlay Pass has released his “2020 Da Outlet” full-length album in Korea today. The LP features among others Jay Park, Ted Park and Dumbfoundead.
Following his mini-album “L.A.,” producer Big Banana has dropped the new single “TTP” today, featuring IV, Dumbfoundead, G2 and Reddy.
“Hold the vision, trust the process.”

It’s once again en vouge to make lists of top rappers. This is a past time as old as pen and paper. People making lists of their favorite things, and in this case favorite MCs. However, I think the sudden resurgence of “Best MCs” lists in the past few months started after Jermaine Dupri‘s indictment of rappers, particularly female rappers, post-1995.
“Kill Bill Special Stage” contains not only all tracks released so far, but also three additional ones, like Dok2‘s “On My Way” trilogy in one track!
There are moments of brilliance in South Korea that need more attention. In 2018 we got just that. Here are my Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums of 2018!
