Is Yunhway moving back to the US?

She took her dogs with her. Traveling with animals that far is such a hassle! She must be staying long term.

I wonder if she's leaving AP Alchemy/WDP soon or just gonna be continuing her career with them overseas?

#im shocked imjmwdp hasnt had a us tour yet but thats another conversation tbh #jm came before but wasnt im way more popular at that time?

thoughts on khiphop as a genre?

khiphop is more defined by the indie-esque music system than the genre itself. a lot of artists who start in khiphop like making music in general rather than being committed to staying within a genre so its super common to see an artist go through the tight rap to pop song pipeline. this stuff performs way better with the public than classic hiphop anyways (re: b'eo counting stars, ash island melody, imjmwdp flex) re: its way easier to make money off of

i think ive ranted about this before but while there are gems within the genre, its always going to be held back in some ways by how derivative it is, which causes (imo) the following common issues:

its easy to pick up which artists an artist is inspired by (common ones include mac miller, xxx, kanye, kendrick, asap, etc), and while thats not inherently evil its not like people are often outdoing their inspirations. for every great khiphop song you can probably pull an american hiphop song doing the same thing but better. american hip hop has just been around longer and had more time to develop which i think contributes to this. artists can evolve though, i think kid milli used to sound like an asap clone but now he has a more distinct color.

i see a number of gang/drug/hood/trapper references in peoples lyrics. it comes off as corny at best, racist at worst (with occasional exceptions. eg. there are some rappers who are very pro weed legalization who rap about weed).

khh artists often have an inability to be normal about black people. its common for a korean person to go to the US, see a black person, comes back with a story about how it changed their life and inspired them to put out shitty music (queen wasabi is the prime example of this). its also common for khiphop artists to way over-romanticize black suffering or think because they're "hiphop" that they can do shit like say the n word (eg. loopy). even justhis has pulled a "yellow skin/black soul" line in his music before

The other factor that makes a lot of artists kind of cringey to me (but is definitely not limited to khh) is artists with rich families flexing their wealth and doing the whole "I made it even tho I had haters because my family is insanely wealthy" type of song and dance. A lot of korean rappers start by taking rap classes, which are even offered at some universities now (superbee started this way, killagramz is now a rap professor. lmao). flex culture is rlly disingenuous seeming when its coming from people who did not start out poor.

ok so aside from that here's what I like:

my #1 favorite thing about khiphop is the producers. producers rarely limit themselves to a single genre or sound and this allows for really experimental and cool beats. code kunst/giriboy/boycold/etc are the true stars of the genre. in general I think korean production favors a lot of transitions rather than repeating motifs like in western production which is also fun. a number of producers like Flip_00 have had a lot of success getting work in and out of korea

korean has its own unique flow to it and allows for wordplay/rhyming that would be harder to do in english

korean music taste inspires a lot of fun songs. koreans love for ballads inspires a lot of really good krnb. you can find khh songs with trot influences. I also think the popularity of fun indie Bolbbalgan4-esque songs inspires a lot of really light and dreamy beats and songs. korean music as a whole tends to do sad/emotional music well and khh isn't an exception

231210 K-Hiphop Fest in Asia 2023 [Swagger] - TAIPEI ①

這是一篇沒有照片的無聊後記 🥹 我被持有S23U的朋寵壞ㄌ…真的太太太感謝（怎在這說） 這次我的位置離舞台的距離A52S已完全派不上用場XD 所以整場就認真地用肉眼好好觀看了

這個巡迴在我看來滿神奇的，出演藝人好像基本上以AMBITION/Daytona + IMJM（AP Alchemy）組成（+AREA）

個人體感KHH在台灣最有市場的應該是AOMG/H1GHR啊 🤣 但不管怎麼說，能在自家主場（？）看到IMJM我真的是只有感恩的心 🫶

RGP（HAHA & SKULL）的舞台作為開場，是可以讓台上台下都一起玩得很開心的氛圍，HAHA本人是當天唯一這麼認真跑全場飯撒的藝人XDD

JAEHA和Skinny Brown都是我相對不熟、只聞其名的藝人，當天感覺有很多人是為他們來的～ JAEHA的setlist中我比較喜歡/有印象的是這首

Skinny Brown有唱和PATEKO合作的〈Rainy Day〉（我第一次聽到這首歌是在今年HPF尹辰煐的舞台，所以還以為是他自己的歌 哈XD）

ABLE（張賢勝）的部分真的很有他本人獨特的感性和氛圍XD 但比較可惜的是，在拼盤演唱會裡就有點吃虧～因為其他藝人可能都是很嗨、可以帶動台下氣氛一起玩的那種，相較之下這段表演就顯得很文靜

盧允夏開場第一首唱了〈Warrior〉…是我在今年AP合輯裡少數喜歡的歌曲之一 🥹

允夏也是一個我覺得現場看了會很開心的孩子（？）藝人XD

從盧允夏到Blase這個Drill session（？）現場聽蠻嗨的，但老實說Drill真不在我平常的守備範圍內XDD

GroovyRoom打碟時我一直好希望能看到合作舞台 🥹 （然而沒有XD） 輝珉當天也是通常運轉中的暴衝（？）與可愛，圭正又變帥ㄌ 👍 （抱歉只有這種膚淺感想）

然後是 梁洪元…！！！ 一直到前一天我們都還在擔心 「這小子該不會搭不上飛機吧」 的梁洪元 🥰 看到洪元的瞬間就已經想尖叫ㄌ…一身黑衣又帥又可愛，比HPF看到他的時候感覺得出來整個人的狀態好太多了、作為粉絲/觀眾的滿足度也跟著蹭蹭蹭提升！ （HPF時應該是潛水多時之後久違的公演、甚至是這麼大規模的音樂節，而且也是一直連絡不到、後來才緊急追加的，時間被排在一大早 😂 那天看起來很緊繃？很努力想做好、不出錯的樣子，讓人看了也有點跟著緊張XD 雖然還是覺得可愛又喜歡但也有點心疼？XD）

開場是〈ROSE〉&〈Gray〉

（到現在還是覺得《Stranger》和《SOkoNYUN》這兩張專輯好經典 🫠 也是從此奠定了我愛梁洪元的基礎）

還唱了IMJMWDP合輯中的〈나쁜맛〉、還沒發行的〈25YB〉、充分表達DICKIDS自負心（？）+罵人罵得好爽的〈B-site〉、SMTM6的〈Search〉 每一首都好讓人尖叫 🥵 都充滿ㄌ無限回憶

最後一首是〈No Cap〉

真的是想聽的歌都聽到了、他唱的歌都是我想聽的歌…！😭

ment也蠻可愛的（？）Rap還是很猛 雖然有不小心嘴ㄆ一ㄚˇ失誤了一下XD 但反應太可愛ㄌ無法跟他計較（到底為什麼變得這麼寬容寵溺XDD） 講話的時候就…0國語言XD 也和其他人一樣提到這是第一次來台灣（昨天台下大家的反應應該有讓各位藝人們滿意啦，好幾位都有提到沒想到這麼熱情/有這麼多人喜歡他們之類的） 「我現在大概知道（你們的反應）是什麼感覺了（台灣的粉絲們）」 請問到底知道了什麼XDDD 😂

演出結束之後回去過幾天新單曲就會發行 真的假ㄉ（幹）前幾天還說1、2月餒XD

梁洪元唱完時我整個措手不及，20分鐘過得太快ㄌ… 😭

在聽的時候腦海裡一直循環的念頭：天啊他的聲音真的太讚了吧…！有這種聲線的人真的天生就應該吃音樂這碗飯欸…！ 還有覺得表演的時候rap起來這麼帥，但到底為什麼平常過成那樣（那樣）XDDDD 這就是反差萌ㄅ。

CONGRATULATIONS!

my fav song is IMJMWDP (prod. by giriboy) and my friend tells me im quite creative. i love to write, read and enjoy intellectual conversations.🥰

alright hear me out:

𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙘𝙝 𝙪𝙥 𝙞𝙨: Rindou Haitani

Can rap the lyrics really fast and tries to impress you with it. He seems like someone who only listens to rap and as a secret obsession k-pop. I also take him as someone who's actually really smart and could give you fun and deep discussions. From his weird poses and hair styles Rindou probably loves going crazy and creative too.

The song plays in his room where he tries to look as cool as possible so you look at him and not his brother

[khiphop-discussions]

I think you are an amazing person and YOU make people their day on Tumblr, at least me! Uhm. You are well spoken and know what you talk about! I wonder why you did not choose to follow a career like writing for magazines, blogs etc. or start your own official website blog about kHH, r&b and also go to Korea, japan and do those interviews etc. A website Where people can subscribe and you can make money out of it.

Thank you I appreciate this!

Funny story but I did actually write articles for some websites as a small gig in my early days of college. They were about video games though!

I'm definitely interested in doing interviews w/ artists! I'm also interested in potentially getting into A&R or working at concerts in some way. I definitely wouldn't mind working behind the scenes to set up some tours in California, US, and potentially North America as a whole. When Swings' dropped that illustration of the IMJMWDP building I couldn't help but think "Hmmm, that seems like it's gonna need a lot of staff👀" LOL. Not to mention when some companies put out a recruitment call on IG for staff.

I definitely need to keep studying Korean so I can get to a point where I can have more in-depth conversations. Even if they aren't formal "interviews". I still think I might be able to get some interesting info about an artist/their career in regular conversation.

As far as websites, they take a lot of time to maintain but also there's not that much money to make tbh. I kinda just like this dynamic where we can talk and hang out without much thought into how to get the most views or subs. Otherwise, I have to put a lot of thought into putting out content that gets the most views/subs in order to make money instead of just having organic conversations. The internet isn't that profitable anymore without close to 1 million or more views/subscribers.

Right now I'm preparing to study Computational Linguistics in the Fall but I've been thinking a lot lately about how there's no reason I can't work in 2 fields.

I've been noticing a lot of people I respect (professors, musicians, and some other professions) actually work in more than one field. One of my old professors from undergrad is a really accomplished Linguist (researcher + professor) but he also has some albums/eps out and does theater as well! Another professor has multiple jobs on campus (professor, researcher, director of a lab on campus) but is also a speech therapist. A singer I like who is getting a lot of buzz in their genre also works in the film industry. Then you have people like Super Bee, The Quiett, Ash Island, Swings, Dok2, Loco, and others who make music but also have clothing lines, record shops, record labels, TV shows, restaurants, gyms. It's REALLY inspiring! Cause I feel like earlier on in life, the idea was more like "Yeah, you get ONE job/career and that's what you do!" So you had to choose one thing you really liked. And I know people having "more than one job/career" is also a product of how hard it is to stay afloat in our society and live the life you want on just ONE income (side hustle culture and whatnot) BUT still. I'm interested in A LOT of different things so it's nice to see other people making it work!

Anyway, thanks again for this ask! It definitely gave me some things to consider! And I'm glad you're enjoying my posts!
