Garion release single ‘그니까’

Hiphop duo Garion have released the single ‘그니까‘ [So] on October 7 which features singer Son Seung-yeon.

The song sends a positive message to the Korean youth, saying that they should not be suppressed by reality but keep their head up. The lyrics’ background is how MC Meta and Naachal did not give up their dreams of becoming musicians, staying true to their attitude, and Son Seung-yeon tells of the difficulties she had to go through to realize her dream of becoming a singer. This is Son Seung-yeon’s first featuring as a rapper and the first track which she (partly) owns copyrights for.
The single was produced by Fascinating and Keeproots, who has been working with Garion since their single ‘이야기‘ [Story].

Garion - 이야기 (cover)

Garion release new single ‘이야기’ (Story)

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.

Keeproots - Kick&Snap (cover)

Keeproots releases single and MV ‘Kick&Snap (Feat. RHYME-A-, Naachal, Huckleberry P)’

Kick&Snap Crew’s first official track ‘Kick&Snap’ has been released yesterday along with a music video.

The photography crew was founded on February 20, 2014, with the goal to capture the Korean hiphop scene in photos and videos.

The song lyrics talk about the Kick&Snap members’ view on and attitude towards hiphop. It is performed by Bulhandang Crew’s Keeproots, who also produced the track together with Fascinating. It features RHYME-A-, Huckleberry P, and Garion’s Naachal. The album artwork includes an original typography made by Studio Jot. The whole music video was of course filmed by Kick&Snap and does not only feature the crew members but also various other artists.

Every year, Kick&Snap have revealed a new slogan. “Hiphop through the Viewfinder,” “Movement for the Moments,” now it is “그 빛이 찾아낸 영혼이 보이는 피사체” (The subject that the soul sees that discovered the light). This track is a great present for all fans of Korean hiphop.
