Independent R&B artist Knave released his first mini album, “A very Knave,” as well as the MV of the title track yesterday. The EP features singer Horim.
“Music was my best friend. I could tell it my personal stories, unburden difficult memories to it and tell it love stories, while fighting with it and being comforted by it.
“While making this album, I think I wanted to become such a friend to someone who listens to my music. I figured that if I show my true self and my true feelings, we might become friends, so I named the album ‘My real self’ or ‘A very Knave.’
“PS: Nobody knows what love is. However, if you’re afraid of loving you sometimes lose your reason for living and one way or the other nothing but sadness remains. I’d like to know how far this goes, I’d like to see this to the end. Don’t you think that wanting to know what real love is actually is love?”

Independent artist Wooks has released his first mini album, “Love Like Religion,” today, along with the music video of the track “Sabotage.”
“From Wooks’ perspective, the most significant element of love is trust. Without trust and devotion, it is impossible to recognize someone who could possibly be [the] love of [your] life. Some religion states believing in god leads to Heaven, while sinners go to Hell. Even these principles cannot be realized without belief; and so is love. This album contains stories of love that failed due to lack of devotion. It draws the aching phases of relationships mistreated by mistrust, which hinders one from diving into love (completely).”
