Three lyricists of the Korean hiphop scene have gotten together for the single ‘Shine My Way’.
Every time he releases an album, hiphop artist Hwaji gets all the spotlight. Ahead of the release of the mini album he made this year while “having fun,” this new single is coming out.
‘Shine My Way‘ features Chaboom and JUSTHIS. According to Hwaji, these two are the best at doing their own thing. On this track, the three rap about their way of life and how it shines, using witty word play.
Hwaji even drew the cover art himself, giving it more meaning. The artwork will connect with the cover of his upcoming EP, continuing the storyline.

D.Action who is known for his heavy flow has released his second single ‘Millionaire‘ today, as well as its title track’s music video.
The first digital single he released was ‘Check It Out‘ in January. Both in the underground and as part of the hiphop duo Untouchable, D.Action has been acknowledged by fans for his deep tone and flow.
This new single ‘Millionaire’ gives you a glimpse into D.Action’s point of view on music. The songs are different from fancy hiphop sounds. They will remember you of 90’s New York hiphop with a jazzy loop and no hook and rap that sounds somehow drunk but lets you feel alive. The beat was produced by ASSBRASS who has been working with Untouchable before as well as with D.Action for his first single ‘Check It Out’. A bland drum beat and brass sounds are the point of the beat on which D.Action raps at ease. The lyrics tell of how he does not care about the costs when it’s about making music, just as if he was a millionaire. The second track of the single features Deepflow and Chaboom who rap on the exact same beat but will give you a different version of ‘Millionaire’ that shows off each rapper’s own style.
Instead of following the trend, D.Action consistently stays with his own style and proves himself as an artist once more.
Brown Sugar, who has produced for artists like Gil of Leessang, Swings, Outsider, and more, has released his second producer album ‘Vitor Part 1’ today as well as the music video for the title track ‘Vitor (feat. illinit, Deepflow, KWON5FRESH, DJ Young)’.
Check out the music video for Bassagong’s ‘마초맨’ [Macho Man] featuring Chaboom and Deepflow that was released ahead of his full-length album ‘출항사’ on July 23.
