Biography
RM started as an underground rapper in Seoul, where he gained popularity to the point of being noticed and recruited by Big Hit Entertainment. A hip-hop group that then evolved to be a K-pop group was formed around him and he was appointed the leader.
While slowly but surely leading BTS at the top of the musical world, he shared his view on life and empathized with oppressed communities, from his inclusion of the LGBT community in song lyrics to his speech at the UN. He has always been invested in the writing, the composition and later the production of BTS songs. Yet, he still found the time for more personal projects, especially in 2015, the year he did the most solo activites.
For a more complete biography, you can check these resources:

Epiktober Day 1
This song released shortly after their 10th year anniversary featuring old artists they have worked with over the years(also a quasi Movement Crew reunion). Epik High’s sound changes through out the years and the group is always experimenting with their style, this song goes on a more classic hip hop beat produced by DJ Tukutz. With boastful, confident lyrics the song is an effortless, bombastic classic.
