October Korean Hip-Hop & R&B DisKovery

Our monthly discovery hip-hop and R&B radar is back with a new month. For this month we had a new artist debuting with awesome tracks and unexpected features. We have to go through quite a few, let’s start checking them out!

LT has been around for a bit, we just recently found his music through his latest album ‘EXIT pt.2’. This album is packed with lo-fi tunes and a fabulous vibe, the tracks ‘She said’ and ‘EXiT’ featuring ESBEE, are just a few of our favourite ones, but this release is a cool listen from start to end. 

Listen to this release here.  

Another artist that has been around for a while is Kanto, he came back this month with the single ‘Veteran’ featuring DEEPFLOW, Anandelight and MINOS. If you are into old school hip-hop vibes and sick beats, this track is a must listen.

Jomalxne has released a few tracks, but his latest EP ‘Sky Walker’ has a total vibe. His feature with JAY B for the single ‘GZRGH’ is amazing, and definitely worth checking out.

Check this EP here.

 XAXA and Santa Paine teamed up for the EP ‘What is Love’, this release has a dope mix of hip-hop beats and smooth R&B, and it it a smooth listen, the balance of vocals and rapping is nothing but perfection, a total non-skip.

The brand new debut Yuwol released his self-titled single album with two singles and amazing features. I am looking forward to his upcoming releases, ‘Yuwol’ was definitely a solid debut.

After a couple of years laying low, LeeHyunJun came back with the album ‘LOST IN TRANSLATION’. I am obsessed with the angsty vibes and rap flow of this release. With fourteen tracks,  this album is non-skip, there are surprises in every single song, and the feel is one of a kind. A must listen to is ‘Gestalt’, that track is a ride.

Check this release here.

Slom is not really new in our reports, but his latest album ‘WEATHER REPORT’ is incredible, he has had amazing releases in the past, but this one takes it all, with incredible music and solid features. This release is another non-skip, and one of the highlights of the month.

That was it for this month’s disKovery. See you next time with more new music finds.
