Verse 1)
Love doesn’t exist
and I’m not worried at all about how you are doing (Hmph!)
Rotting in this room
while reading the webtoon “Friday”, I comfort myself (What?) Preserving my mind (Ah) ((Swings uses a pun here, comforting himself (masturbate – jawihada)  and preserving the mind (jungshin jawi).))

Bring the guy who said that life was sweet, so I can make an experiment [with him] and beat him up
Let’s see if he still laughs after it took four weeks for his injuries to heal, I hope he’ll be burnt out like my insides
l stay far away from those guys who are high like an American kid on drugs and can’t see reality
because when I see y’all who are too happy, the incompatibility strangles me, get it?

Hook)
Please get lost
I’m just me, yeah
You say you hate me? But what can I do?
I hate you too, blockhead, yeah

I just feel that way, I just feel that way,
I just feel that way everyday and every day
I just feel that way, I just feel that way,
I just feel that way everyday

Verse 2)
It looks bad for the hip hop scene too
Swings is also barely earning money only now (Oppa, don’t you buy brand-name products all the time?) (Shut up!)
I’ve been doing music for 6 years
How many more years do you think I can go on with this personality? Damn! (Figures.)

Why do these shitty rappers only curse me everyday? I do work too (I’m serious)
I’m one of the main contributors to the development of Korean hip hop, but why don’t I get awards? (Give me one!)
Don’t talk about my personality, I know I’m a retard but I’m a musician so why on earth (Why on earth?)
do I need a good personality? Isn’t it enough to be good at rap? Tell me, honestly!

Hook)

Verse 3)
My father has two Ph.Ds
but our family is doomed, it hasn’t been that long
since he has quit the private institute, he’s been fired twice
Understand these blunt lyrics, alright?

I respect my father a lot not a little
Anyways, he’ll be 60 soon, how do you think I feel like?
My mother and two others don’t know the ways of the world
They’ve already been swindled (twice)

I want to kill those sons of bitches
I’m fat but they are the real pigs
I wonder why he wanted to study, if he was to become a teacher
Now he drives a taxi, yes you heard right

An ordinary person’s life will soon be shift work
A life that very easily turns into treading water
Now I touched the baton so I’m writing lyrics
So I’m saving lots of money, time’s precious

Outro)
Take me home (home)
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home (Please!)

It’s so dirty
that I can’t live (Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!)
Don’t pretend to be cool,
you are the same

You, you, you, you, yea (Yes, you)
You are the same
You, you, you, you, yea (You too, you son of a bitch!)
You are the same
You, you, you, you, yea
You are the same
You, you, you, you, yea

Genius Nochang joins “Idol Audition” program and talks about Swings’ army enlistment

Hip-hop label Just Music‘s producer Genius Nochang (천재노창), who recently signed to be part of the upcoming Starship and MNET collaborative audition program ‘No Mercy‘, has been very active since the drop of his label compilation album [Ripple Effect (파급효과)].

In this interview, HIPHOPPLAYA interviews Nochang about the audition program ‘No Mercy’ as well as the enlistment of his fellow label artist (and CEO) Moon Swings.


HIPHOPPLAYA (HPP): What are you doing right now?
Nochang: I am laying in bed after showering.

HPP: You recently attended the Young King Young Boss concert as a guest. How did this come about?
Nochang: I’m trying to think back.. I received an invitation to perform as a guest during the time when I was working with Dok2 on the ‘Rain Shower Remix’ track. I happily accepted the offer as the concert was three minutes away from our office (laughs). It was an honor to perform with artists I’ve looked up to since my high school days.

HPP: How was the concert?
Nochang: I was able to experience the 1LLIONAIRE fever and loyalty. The stage presence by the three artists (Dok2, The Quiett, Beenzino) and the responsiveness of the audience was immense.

HPP: Were you sad about it?
Nochang: (laughs) I wasn’t sad, but it was an experience. It was a while since I have seen stage performances by other artists (outside of Just Music). Being part of the concert was motivating.

HPP: You and Giriboy recently became part of Starship x MNET audition program called ‘No Mercy’.
Nochang: It was an abrupt decision. I met up with the team from Starship to discuss about the program and it seemed like a fun opportunity. I mentioned in my previous HIPHOPPLAYA interview that ‘I realized the power of TV shows’, and I was mores inspired by Dok2 and The Quiett’s participation in Show Me The Money 3. I thought to myself, ‘why not go for it?’ and finally signed to be part of the show.

HPP: Is the program currently filming and in development? What is the show about?
Nochang: They haven’t filmed me yet, but it’s coming up since Giriboy has recently finished filming. Unfortunately I am unable to disclose any information about the show. (laughs)

HPP: Maybe you can tell us this. Is this show tailored towards our [hip-hop] scene?
Nochang: Hm.. hip-hop scene.. in some ways yes? But given how the show will focus on idols, it will be more popular in that aspect.

HPP: Swings temporarily left the label for army enlistment. How has that affected you [and the label]?
Nochang: There are no major changes. I mean, we don’t really express it, but we were quite sad when the boss left, especially the first two days.

HPP: So who is in charge of the label currently?
Nochang: Black Nut is currently the boss. That’s why I joined the YKYB concert – I am ready to jump ship.

HPP: Tell me about your current and future plans.
Nochang: I am currently working with CJAMM on his solo album, as well as a project with another member. Come to think of it, they are all going to be released.. In addition, we are working on the second compilation album, which may not be titled ‘Ripple Effect’. Once we complete these projects, I will work on my own music.

HPP: You sound bored.
Nochang: You’re right (laughs). I wan’t to work on my own music.

HPP: The new office looks nice.
Nochang: All thanks to our cool boss Swings. Back when he was here we used to cut steaks, and now.. he wants us to mail him with instant noodles..

HPP: Thank you for your time. We look forward to your future endeavours.

[NEWS] Swings Leaves Brand New Music

On August 28, Just Music CEO and SHOW ME THE MONEY 3 producer Swings announced his departure from Brand New Music.

“One must live the way one thinks or end up thinking the way one has lived.” – Paul Valery

Hello, this is Moon Swings. I would like to make a sad but exciting announcement that may surprise you. 

Despite the rough three years, I am still chasing my dream fearlessly. Through the many failures and my constant dependency towards my family at Brand New Music, I looked at myself in the mirror and made this decision [to leave Brand New] with the help of Rhymer hyung and co. 

An ambitious individual does not simply live their life yelling “I’ll do it. I’ll do it. I’ll do it” on repeat! I learned so much through Brand New, including the realization that the journey is still long ahead. Please continue to support Brand New, and welcome me to the big league. Thank you so much.

It’s Just Brand New (Source: Swings — translated from his post via instagram)

Check out the following translated article for more detail:

[The FactㅣOh Saehoon Reporter] Rapper Swings’ contract with Brand New Music has been terminated.

Swings, who will officially leave the company after August, will go fully independent with his current independent label Justmusic with Vasco, Nochang, Giriboy, CJAMM, and Black Nut.
