Kohway - Famous! (cover art)

Kohway releases new single ‘Famous! (Feat. Young Jay)’

Hiphop/R&B artist Kohway of Whiteteez has released his new single ‘Famous! (Feat. Young Jay)‘ today.

Kohway was originally known as ‘Freelow‘. He debuted alongside Still PM under Soul Connection in 2012. Three years later he dropped his ‘Halftime Mixtape’.

This new release is his eighth single. XENOVIBE, who has worked with artists like Roydo and QM, produced the track. It features rapper Young Jay, who recently dropped his second LP, ‘The Boy‘, and the single ‘I Get It‘. EachONE, who already worked with Kohway on his previous single, did the mixing and mastering.

The song is not just about becoming famous, but neither about denying reality. It is about admitting to one’s worries about daily life and the quickly passing time, yet not losing to the pressure from others who are more successful.

“These days, I’m still the same
My average life looks dull”

You can find the single on iTunes/Apple Music and stream it on SoundCloud (see above), where it was already released last month.

XENO VIBE - 변해 (cover art)

XENO VIBE releases debut single ‘변해 (Feat. QM)’

XENO VIBE, who has produced for artists like Bully Da Ba$tard, Canhza, or Roydo, has released his first single ‘변해 (Feat. QM)’ today.

This song combines the feel of 1960s jazz music with boom bap sounds. QM‘s voice resounds on a very luxurious, vintage sounding beat. The rapper recently released his first full-length album ‘WAS‘, and received attention for his solid lyrics and rap skills.

As the title ‘변해‘ (lit.: change) suggests, QM spits about the changes in his life that took place due to music. He is straightforward about it, which could be uncomfortable but instead feels cathartic to the listeners.

Listen to the song on SoundCloud (above) or enjoy it with Korean subtitles in the video below!
