賭上「真心」的製作人R.Tee

source. WKorea

對KPOP粉絲們來說，不認識製作人R.Tee就可惜了。 BLACKPINK的〈玩火（불장난）〉、BIGBANG的〈FXXK IT（에라 모르겠다）〉、太陽的〈Wake Me Up〉等等，過去數年來，他所製作的歌曲已經在世界上冉冉升起。既然已經證明了自身的存在，那麼透過出演2022年Mnet的SHOW ME THE MONEY 11，又再一次地要證明什麼呢？ R.Tee講述了與SMTM11一起度過的這特別的一年、以及一切都通過「真心」而得的R.Tee獨有的方程式。

2022年是SMTM11的一年呢，從去年8月開始的拍攝一直到12月30日的直播為止

「沒錯，真的像是吊著一口氣、想要賭上一切的程度。」

放送結束後的12月31日，你好像過得比誰都更享受呢

「因為重新回到睽違了數個月的日常，可以說是感受到了這些的珍貴性的程度。我領悟了原來睡覺的滋味是這麼美好。31日和從以前開始認識了很久的朋友們聚會光是喝酒了。喝了又睡、睡了又喝。」

根據坊間傳言，你有個別名是「燒啤天才」

「真的是不知道到底是誰在散布這種傳言。（笑）其實在做燒啤的時候，比起比例來說，震動才是更重要的。酒和酒在混合時存在著一種最好的震動。酒杯“tok”的撞擊到時的震動感。啊、不過這都是我個人的手感，要怎麼說明這箇中技巧呢…（笑）」

SMTM11結束之後，你在SNS上說「過去四個月來，每天只睡2小時，總共製作了12首歌」這行程看來真是發揮了超人般的energy呢

「因為我身邊有不少出演過SMTM的熟人，所以對於這（工作量極大的）惡名是早有耳聞的。我所屬的公司THEBLACKLABEL中，像是Zion.T和KUSH都是參加過前幾季的。為了應對這個困難，在開始拍攝前就已經先寫了40～50首歌，但是結論是，全部都沒有派上用場。（笑）打從放送一開始，只要聽到了參與的Rapper們的故事，就知道除了為此量身打造全新的曲子以外別無他法。可以說是一週間的戰爭了。因為每週都要為了出新的音源而馬上完成一首新歌。」

雖然優勝的Rapper出自其他隊伍，但這一季實際上的勝利者應該非你本人與JUSTHIS組成的「魚子醬（알젓；R.JUS）」隊莫屬 從DON MALIK到許成炫為止，有兩名隊員晉升到了現場直播的總決賽舞台

「出演節目時，我最重要的目標就是『要讓我們的隊員被大韓民國所有人都知曉』。已經做好了手段和方法都不拘的心理準備。從結果論，讓最多的隊員站上了決賽的舞台，老實說感到很欣慰。尤其是第一次評審許成炫時，我曾說過『今天（我評審）的人當中你是做得最好的』這樣的話。當然也會有其他更厲害的人，但是在我看來這位親辜（許成炫）已經是STAR了。在競演當中大放光彩，成為真正的STAR、並且從另一方面來說，也證明了我的眼光是正確的，對此感到很感謝呢。」

直播當時你看著自家隊員們的樣子，就像將孩子們送進了首爾大學的媽媽一樣呢…（笑）

「哈哈。老實說在網路上也出現了像這樣的迷因呢。像是我看著許成炫露出滿足的微笑，說著『我們兒子大學考試考得如何啊』之類的話。（笑）光是想到我們隊員們，連晚上睡覺前都會笑出來呢。」

透過BLACKPINK的〈玩火（불장난）〉、BIGBANG的〈FXXK IT（에라 모르겠다）〉等多首HIT曲，不管怎麼說都已經是證明了自身實力的製作人了；在這次SMTM11中有什麼想要展現出來的樣貌嗎？

「首先是剛才就提到過的，這次出演的目標並不是優勝。在SMTM11當中，我除了這個之外就別無所願了：想讓這些我覺得很厲害的朋友們，他們的名字都能夠為大韓民國的每一個人所認知。事實上這是近似於奇蹟的事呢，但是多虧了大眾的喜愛，似乎達到了某種程度上的實現。另一方面來說，也帶著想要展現我的光譜（涉獵範圍）有多廣的想法。為了想要最大化地展現多樣化的模樣，12首競演曲每一首都做出了全新的嘗試。我做不太來一成不變、重複性高的東西，比起持續地展現自身擅長的、帥氣的風格，我更喜歡拋出具有各種可能性的骰子。」

與展現出了與眾不同的chemi的JUSTHIS是怎麼組成隊伍的呢？

「我是他的粉絲呢。從很久以前開始就喜歡了。內心裡懷著憤怒的人們，互相會理解彼此心中仍然存在的餘燼。藉由這次機會才初次認識，但是從開始到結束都非常的順利。是到了會產生『居然還有這樣的？』這種想法、兩人默契得要死的那種程度。在我看來，JUSTHIS是已經在自身領域中徹底走過、也看過了終點的一位親辜。我同樣也是承受著要死一般的苦痛，經歷過我所做的音樂的極限。所以我們在談話時頗有心有靈犀之感。這次放送中最大的收穫，就是結交了JUSTHIS這位朋友。」

有種使出了殺手鐧的感覺呢，一般來說應該會與平常認識的製作人組成一隊吧

「人際關係和去咖啡店一次、兩次地蓋章集點是不一樣的。當然，儘管多多見面交流也很重要，但是只要彼此的心意相通的話就可以了。所以說呢，和JUSTHIS初次見面那天就聊了8、9個小時。彼此關注的事物也是相同的、兩人的頻率也相近。或許在那同時就互相都有感覺到了。」

競演當時對隊員之一的Unofficialboyy曾說過「技術是無法撼動人心的」，令人印象深刻；這句話是什麼意思呢？

「要忽視音樂性。（在做音樂時不能只顧著想要怎樣運用音樂上的技巧）原始的力量是能夠使人們落���的，我認為修飾雕琢並不是這個問題的解法。當然，如果每天花上10～12小時泡在工作室裡埋頭作曲，也是有可能“tok”地迸出些原始的什麼。自從開始獨自做音樂，過了幾年之後我遇上了撞牆期。好像從某個瞬間開始就無法使自己感到滿意。別人都拍手叫好，但我內心卻想著：『為什麼我卻覺得不合心意呢？』那時我也還沒有所屬的公司，於是就直接找上了海外的音樂廠牌，將音源傳過去進行交流，也都是得到一片說音樂很好的反饋。儘管如此，我還是不願意發行這些曲子。想了想造成如此的理由，是因為我在用技術去貼近音樂。想通這點的當下感覺就好像當頭棒喝一樣。在那之後做出來的歌曲就是2016年BLACKPINK的〈玩火（불장난）〉。」

〈玩火（불장난）〉是你第一次在大眾面前昭示本身存在的歌曲

「這是一首在2016那年的某一天，我睡一覺起來，只花了20分鐘就做完的曲子。但是準確地來說，以那時為起點，往後在做音樂時開始有了極大的解放感。在聲音的表現上變得更有創意且簡潔俐落。如果說以前是帶著『不能在這裡再多裝進點音效嗎？』這種想法，在曲子裡塞了又塞，從〈玩火〉之後則是了解到技術上的耍帥毫無意義，於是開始精簡音效。2016年可以說是展開了我的音樂生涯中全新的章節。」

你也是在那一年，通過〈玩火（불장난）〉，遇見了現在所屬公司THEBLACKLABLE的製作人TEDDY的

「沒錯。過去我在做音樂時，對於音樂的宣傳計劃也有著同等的關心。獨自完成的有趣企劃非常地多。我曾經直接買下一台5噸的卡車，裝飾得像舞台一樣，然後在那上面開了個音樂祭。因此跟其他人比起來，我的名字也快速地為人所知，就是在那個時候，現在公司的KUSH哥也對我的音樂投以喜愛。通過KUSH哥將我介紹給了TEDDY哥，而在當時全大韓民國我最尊敬的製作人正是TEDDY哥。」

從2016年開始與TEDDY合作了7年，他是個什麼樣的同僚呢？

「與他人不同地思想很有深度。老實說，當做音樂的人們聚在一起的話，常常就變成只聊音樂。最近流行的音樂類型是什麼呢、誰很夯呢…但是我和TEDDY哥好像都是聊些人生在世的話題。最近感受到了什麼呢、對此我們互相又有什麼想法。似乎就像這樣填滿了過去的這7年時間。」

開始做音樂的契機是什麼呢？

「高中、大學時我都是主修韓國畫的。高二時開始下定決心要成為音樂人。真的是因為很單純的理由。沒有比我更熱愛音樂的人了，所以因為這樣我認為自己可以脫穎而出。現在也還是會對後輩製作人們說：『我比你更熱愛音樂。在這點上是不會輸的。』然後對美術大學就只是想沾個醬油路過就好。我的父親和姐姐都是畫家。我從小就是受著藝術的薰陶長大。特別是我的父親，什麼種類的藝術都相當精通，真的是天才般的人物呢。美術歸美術，音樂歸音樂。托父親的福，我在6歲的時候用徐太志與孩子們的音樂跳舞、初中1年級時開始聽Micheal Jackson。我想我是在這樣那樣的諸多祝福中長大的。」

聽說你在大學時節也曾兼職做過入學考試的美術講師，也請談談這部分

「對的，我感到很自豪。我所教導的7名學生全都成功考取了在首爾的大學。其中一名還是被梨大以榜首錄取的呢。（笑）」

主修美術對於你在做音樂時，有起到什麼樣的幫助嗎？

「比起說是幫助，似乎是彼此之間存在著共通點。我還在畫畫的那時曾聽過像這樣的說法：『在一幅好的畫作之中，要有一條道路能夠讓畫中的小人通過它走出來。』意思就是，比起隱含非常多意義的畫作，保有留白之處、使觀眾得以將自身想法投射上去的才是好的畫作。音樂好像也是如此。越是空著，人們才越能夠以自己的想像來填滿曲子。」

對音樂人來說，本身製作的歌曲就是介紹自己的名片；那麼對你來說，像是名片一樣的歌曲是哪一首呢？

「到現在為止製作過的所有曲子中，浮現在我腦海中的就兩首歌。首先是2020年作曲的BLACKPINK的〈How You Like That〉。這首歌代表了我。曲子的氛圍、演出、力量、進行（的方式），這些就是金重九。（笑）另一首則是出乎預料地、在SMTM11中誕生的。DON MALIK的〈눈（EYE）〉。包括作曲、作詞都參與了，歌名也是親自定的。這首歌中눈（EYE 眼睛/ SNOW 雪）的靈感來自於我相當喜歡的電影之一，《I型起源（I ORIGINS）》。〈눈（EYE）〉這首歌乘載了我一直以來想說的話、想要呈現的音效等全部的一切。」

有沒有寫過什麼歌是讓你覺得「在這種事上也可以得到靈感啊？」的呢？

「有很多耶？甚至還有在去H&M買衣服的路上，因為心情太好了而靈光乍現的曲子呢。（笑）我的靈感大多是像這樣的。從非常不像話的、微小的瑣事中開始。絕對不會代入什麼公式來作曲。假如說真的存在有什麼公式的話，音樂的潮流就會趨向缺乏變化。另外，一開始就有這種公式的話，那麼就所有人都能成功了。假如通過什麼樣的歌曲得到了喜愛，就想著『下次還得是這樣的』那可就失算了。」

大多數製作人會想著特定的音樂人來寫歌，那你的情況又是如何呢？

「具體決定了曲子要給誰的話，就會想著那個人來寫歌；大部分則是從開始到結束都是我自己作業。為了讓自己感到滿意會瘋狂地作曲。音源排行榜1位這種的一點也不會讓我高興。恰到好處地做出合我本身心意的創作的那瞬間，好像才會快樂得像要死了一樣。」

你認為對製作人來說最重要的資質是什麼呢？

「真心。我認為藝術是為了給予感動而存在的。還有，想要撼動人們的心的話，除了真心以外似乎沒有別的答案。所以說，我覺得作為製作人，應該要下功夫學習的部分並非樂理，而是人才對。」

你曾經在2014年發表了〈We Got the World〉以及2019年的〈What You Waiting For（뭘 기다리고 있어）〉這兩首solo曲 想必也有不少粉絲期待著你個人的專輯吧

「現在也正在作曲中呢。事實上已經做好了幾首歌，但是總覺得還可以繼續再多做點什麼，在這樣的心情之下就先（把做好的）擱置著。這些歌曲將會以新奇又陌生的聲音，給初次聽到的人們帶來愉快的感受。我想，今年是不是會以大概2～3首歌來與大家見面呢。」

今年除了發行solo曲之外，還有什麼計畫嗎？

「更多地看著我所愛的人們。對於去年通過SMTM11而相遇的隊員們，我很高興得以完全地向他們傳達我的喜愛之情。在慶功宴當時，DON MALIK和許成炫對我說了這些話：『（一開始）完全不知道（哥）是怎樣的人。一直以來每個人都是為自己打算，沒有像哥這樣以真心相待來拉近距離的。』所以說儘管一開始不熟悉，但之後就感受到了『啊，這哥是超級真心的啊。』（笑）結果好像還是愛和真心才是上上策呢。」

雖然對於製作人R.Tee已經增加了不少了解，但是一般人金重九卻還是籠罩著一層神秘的面紗呢 請告訴我們一般人金重九的3個秘密

「首先，我超級懶散的。由於人們總是只看見了我忙碌的樣子，可能會因此而以為我是個很有計畫性的人，但其實只要一關掉那個開關，我就會變得無限懶散。第二，我是個心懷人間之愛（인류애：大愛、人道主義、和平主義、心中充滿愛）的人。（笑）雖然有點難為情，但是因為這份愛意真的非常巨大的緣故，於是我試著從身邊少數的人開始給予這份心意。第三，我是每天每天都想像著死亡而活著的人。手臂上也刺了“THE END”的刺青。因為總是想像著死亡的緣故，對於現在所愛的會變得更加真心。在我自身必須採取的行動與表現方面，也變得更加地明確。」

The Black Label New (Upcoming) Girl Group

This was a requested reading.

Disclaimer: The information provided in this tarot reading is intended for entertainment purposes only. I interpreted the cards using my intuition and understanding of the cards. Take it with a grain of salt.

How will the public react to their debut?

Cards: 5 of pentacles reverse, 3 of wands reverse, and queen of swords.

Hmm...my honest reaction to the cards is not a good one. Right away, the card 5 of pentacles to me indicates the girls will initially receive positive reactions from the public. Something like "Wow this is so cool, "So refreshing", and "I like them". However, the positive reaction will slowly become "negative". It's not completely bad, but the positive reactions would slowly die down. The girls will receive mixed reactions.

There could be some negativity or criticism towards the group, potentially due to comparisons with existing groups or scepticism about the label's ability to manage a girl group. I'm getting "Oh, this concept existed before", "Oh this is boring", "Nah this is nothing new", and "Can they even dance? "Why is their singing like that?" and so on and so forth. Although they do get positive comments. Sadly, it's the bad ones that I'm getting in this reading.

They might also get criticised for the same old concept related to IT GIRL. However, the reversed card indicates the group could win over the audience with their talent, overcoming any initial doubts.

Sadly, with 3 of wands reversed, the girls might face issues with planning, communication, or finding their unique identity. This is a management issue, which I didn't do further reading on. But the overall energy of this reading does revolve around The Black Label management style.

There could be delays in the debut, setbacks in promotion, or difficulties finding the right direction for the group's image or sound. I'm not sure who or what is the issue, but whoever on the label is in charge of these girls seems to be someone who is still pretty indecisive yet authoritative.

It is said, "THE BLACK LABEL confirms the debut of their first girl group for the 1st half of 2024." Well...the debut plan might change. This reversed card suggests potential delays or setbacks in the group's debut or early career. The girls right now are probably preparing a lot for their debut, but things aren't going according to plan.

The girls are excited and probably looking forward to the glam and glitz of the K-pop world, but "something" hinders their debut. They likely feel stressed out or overwhelmed to do their best.

Now, with this card, I must say the girls will get criticise or judgement from the public on having the same concept as BLACKPINK or groups that Teddy managed in the past.

Fortunately, the girls are determined and confident. They possess strong individual talents, which makes them ambitious. With the Queen of Swords by their side, they are set on achieving success. They might initially attract a limited group of fans, but they have the potential to expand their fanbase as they climb up the ladder and create a niche fanbase or carve out a small group of fans as they climb up the ladder.

What do the public think of the girls?

Cards: 8 of swords, 2 of cups, 2 of swords, and 4 of cups.

SIGH. I...maybe I don't know much about these girls but my cards are so honest about them. The reading I get for these girls is black or white. There is no grey area.

The reversed 8 of Swords suggests the public may initially feel unsure or hesitant about the girls. They might perceive them as lacking something "unique". Yeah, just pure criticism. The girls would likely suffer from negative self-talk due to wanting to be successful or gaining positive feedback from the public.

On the other hand, these girls might be trendsetters. They might create a buzz and make the word "Asian baddie" a trend in South Korea. I hear "insta baddie", so I'm guessing whoever is in charge of these girls wants to make them as insta baddie or embody that IT GIRL energy.

Luckily, the 2 of Cups offers a more positive perspective. It signifies that some people will resonate with the girls' message and connect with their personalities.

Meanwhile, the 2 of Swords reinforces the uncertainty some might feel. People might be unsure about where the girls stand musically or conceptually, making it difficult to form a strong opinion. This could lead to mixed reactions and indecisiveness about supporting the group.

Again, the 4 of Cups indicates a risk of some audience feeling indifferent towards the girls. They might find the group unoriginal, lacking something unique, or simply not resonate with their style. This apathy could pose a challenge in attracting and engaging a broader audience.

Note: My cards fell out when I was shuffling. I take this as a sign that the public is excited on the day of their debut or they will likely garner much attention.

What kind of attention will the girls receive?

Cards: Justice and Ace of Pentacles reverse.

So, the way I see it is that the public will not automatically "like them", but their fans will. Who are their fans? Probably their pre-debut fans. But the public instant reaction says otherwise.

The reversed Ace of Pentacles introduces a note of caution. While Justice suggests fair attention, the reversed position hints at potential challenges in achieving widespread recognition or mainstream success. There could be delays in gaining traction, difficulties securing resources or opportunities, or obstacles in building a solid fanbase.

I think they will lack publicity or some kind of PR work. It's as if the label wants the group to organically become successful or suddenly become popular overnight by some kind of "coincidence" or a good "accident". I hear "We do things organically here". It's as if the girl's popularity will be based on being hard working and it's in their blood to be famous. That's what I'm getting.

Justice suggests the girls will likely receive a fair amount of attention, but it might not always be positive or negative. The card emphasizes the importance of fairness, both in the treatment they receive from the public and within the industry itself. They might face scrutiny and criticism but also have opportunities to showcase their talent and earn recognition for their achievements.

Well, the reversed Ace of Pentacles cautions that the girls' initial attention might be unstable or short-lived.

Notes: My cards don't like the energy. I was able to pull only these cards.

Will they receive success?

Cards: the world reverse, 10 of wands reverse, knight of pentacle reverse, and king of pentacles.

The reversed World suggests the path to success for the girls might not be straightforward. They might face challenges achieving their goals, encountering delays or obstacles along the way. Perhaps the vision for their debut isn't fully formed, leading to confusion or lack of direction.

Whoever is in charge of these girls is GOING THROUGH IT.

The girls might experience delays, setbacks, or obstacles that prevent them from achieving their full potential. They might struggle to find their footing in the industry or feel like they haven't quite reached their desired level of success.

The reversed 10 of Wands reinforces the potential for pressure and difficulty. The girls might feel overwhelmed by expectations, juggling various demands and responsibilities. This could lead to frustration or burnout, hindering their ability to perform at their best.

I don't think these girls are ready to debut. Their skill is not the issue, but the mentality. They're excited yet immature. Surely, they're expecting to be as big as BLACKPINK and that's all I'm getting.

In addition, I'm sensing an impatient energy and whoever is in charge of them is "rushing" things without thinking thoroughly. Perhaps, it has something to do with money, so "this person" is pushing the girls so that they "make money", There are two pentacle cards in this reading, what else could it mean other than money.

Well, it's in the reversed Knight of Pentacles. This card indicates a risk of stagnation or delays. There might be a lack of initiative or clear direction, leading to missed opportunities or slow progress. Additionally, impatience or hasty decisions could create setbacks.

Despite the challenges indicated by the other cards, the King of Pentacles offers a glimmer of hope. This card represents potential for ultimate success, stability, and achievement in the long run. It suggests the girls possess the potential to overcome obstacles and build a sustainable career.

The reading paints a picture of a potentially challenging path to success for the girls. They might face delays, setbacks, and feelings of overwhelm. However, the King of Pentacles suggests they have the potential to overcome these obstacles and achieve their goals.

Remember: The future is not set in stone, and the girls' success will ultimately depend on their hard work, talent, and the choices they make along the way.

After 16 years, BIGBANG’s Daesung is parting ways with YG Entertainment.

On December 26, amidst news that Taeyang had signed with THEBLACKLABEL following the expiration of his contract with YG Entertainment, the agency initially stated that they were still discussing the possibility of contract renewals with his bandmates G-Dragon and Daesung.

However, later that same day, YG Entertainment went on to announce, “Daesung has decided to end his contract with us.” They also elaborated, “He’s looking for a fresh start.”

Just like with Taeyang, YG Entertainment emphasized that while Daesung was leaving the agency, he was not leaving BIGBANG.

“The fact that Daesung is a BIGBANG member has not changed,” stated the agency. “We support Daesung’s choice and new start, and we are always open to cooperating with him.”

BIGBANG’s Taeyang Talks Working With BTS’s Jimin And How Their Collaboration Began

BIGBANG Taeyang‘s anticipated comeback song “VIBE” featuring BTS‘s Jimin was just released, and to commemorate the iconic collaboration, Rolling Stone dropped an exclusive interview with the BIGBANG member.

In October, Taeyang wiped his Instagram clean, deleting all of his photos and replacing his profile photo with a plain black image.

Fans speculated the meaning of the social media cleanse, wondering if it was hinting at a long-awaited comeback.

VIPs seemed to get their answer in December when it was announced that Taeyang would be switching from YG Entertainment to its subsidiary label, THE BLACK LABEL.

"Hello, this is YG Entertainment.

We would like to inform you that BIGBANG member Taeyang will be joining YG Entertainment subsidiary company THE BLACK LABEL as an artist. We are truly happy to be able to deliver this news.

He will still be a member of the YG family and BIGBANG. We understand that many people are waiting for BIGBANG to promote, and we will work hard to make that into reality.

Thank you.

Soon after, Taeyang’s comeback single “VIBE” was announced, featuring BTS’s Jimin. 

Jimin is known to be a long-time fan of Taeyang, but the BIGBANG member wasn’t fully aware of that due to their lack of overlapping promotions. In his interview with Rolling Stone, Taeyang spilled on how the two were able to bring their collaboration to life.

It turns out THE BLACK LABEL’s co-founder Teddy Park was instrumental in forging the connection after bringing up the idea two years ago.

Teddy mentioned in passing that he thought people would really enjoy it if I got together with Jimin to collaborate on a great song. That really stuck with me and I thought it was a great idea, so I always had it in mind.

Taeyang shared that he became closer to the group last summer when he attended various events with the BTS members. Taeyang was spotted at J-Hope‘s legendary album release party and also met up with BTS’s RM at a book launch and an art fair.

Taeyang revealed that he shared meals with the members, and the idea of a collaboration came up naturally in conversation with Jimin. Taeyang had already worked on the song with Teddy, KUSH, Vince, and 24 over two years prior, but the song was only complete once Taeyang was able to connect organically with Jimin.

As expected, Jimin’s hard work and talent impressed Taeyang, who praised his industry junior’s work ethic.

Jimin put in more effort than anyone and I’m very thankful for that.
