8LOOP - Truth (cover art)

8LOOP release second single ‘Truth (Feat. EK of MBA)’

The R&B duo 8LOOP have released their second single ‘Truth’ which features EK of Most Badass Asian.

8LOOP, who are kursor and TE.O, debuted in April with the mini album ‘[DAWN 01:14]‘.

Their first single ‘솔직히 (Truth)‘ was produced by mOnSteR nO.9 of BIXIZ XOUND CREW and kursor. It is a future bass-based R&B song with a unique sound progression, sophisticated track making, and-as the title suggests-very honest lyrics. Plus, the song features EK of Most Badass Asian, the most popular newcomers in the scene these days.

Basick - WTF 3: ₩ON IT ALL (album cover)

Basick releases ‘WTF 3: ₩ON IT ALL (Feat. Most Badass Asian)’

Basick has released the third part of his 2017 Way to Foundation (WTF) Project.

WTF 3: ₩ON IT ALL‘ features three-member group Most Badass Asian (MBA). The previous two parts featured Sik-K and Verbal Jint.

‘₩ON IT ALL’ was composed by Neal of Most Badass Asian (MBA) and is about doing one’s own thing disregarding existing rules and laws in order to attain one’s goal, which is in their case money. So the title is a witty three-way wordplay on the Korean Won, the verb ‘원해’ (wonhae) meaning “want” and the English “I want it all.”
The track is different from the styles we are used to from Basick but his usual flow on Neal’s beat is a new and refreshing experience. Check it out in the official lyric video below!
