Read about MC Meta’s new political hiphop track and what fans and rappers have to say about the current hot issue of political hiphop.
MC Meta and Naachal have released their new single ‘가가가‘ [Go Go Go] today.
Hiphop duo Garion have released the single ‘그니까‘ [So] on October 7 which features singer Son Seung-yeon.
Garion’s new single ‘이야기’ (Story) tells of what MC Meta and Naachal feel about the time they have lived through since they founded the duo in winter 1997.
The Korean hiphop scene which has a history of about twenty years has kept evolving and changing, and in this track Garion’s members rap their mind about their experiences during that time. Its solemn sound was produced by Hallyangsa’s (한량사) producer Keeproots and fellow beatmaker Fascinating. Kim ‘K-Star’ Jaehong (김’케이스타’재홍) mixed and mastered it, creating a movie-like sound which intensifies the impressiveness of ‘이야기’ (Story). As the song title suggests, listening not only to the lyrics’ story but also to the narration of the beat is an important point of enjoying the music.
Garion’s new single ‘이야기’ (Story) is available on iTunes.
