THEY SPAZZED BRUH LOL.. So after reading the lyrics again I'm under the impression that this song is aimed at the industry/fans putting pressure on artists in various ways and bringing attention towards it since nothing is changing over the time it's existed?
It’s a mixture it’s also kinda them talking about where they came from in a sense too...I feel like thoes vids sometimes lose some of the sauce lol either way like you said about the end it’s true and it’s something a lot of older Korean artist could say. It’s not shade at all but give credit we’re credit is so it allll had to start somewhere! Ppl often forget the exposure that artist have now thanks to social media that others didn’t. Just bc the media caught on dose not mean stuff is new lol l! Or that others weren’t as talented or deserving! Anyway I’m so glad there back
This is so iconic bc Epik High debuted in 2003, they LITERAlly helped the hip hop/rap genre become popular in SKorea, and now kpop take so much inspiration in hip hop. The industry wouldnt be the same without them, they are the reallest. AND CL being in the song.... she and 2ne1 changed so much the industry, especially for girls. So this song is doing nothing more than stating facts
@YG Officer연장자 yes. JinuSean and SeoTaiji and Boys were huge before. 1TYM too, I think, but it will become YGFamily lol. People will talk ill again at ygstans
@YG Officer연장자 uhm junghwa is a soloist not a girlgroup. Lol I'm talking in KPOP GGS where everyone was doing cutesy shxt and then 2NE1 came out all "HEY PRETTY BOY U AIN'T GOT NOTHING ON ME" kinda kpop
@@heyheyslowly4298 I know right. I think thats why a lot of 2ne1 fans are alittle upset at Blinks, because they wanna act like Black Pink did it all. I love both groups so much but 2ne1 gets forgotten alot of the time :(((
As much as Epik high paved the way for artists, they also had an impact on Korean censorship. Epik High used to get banned from media due to their lyrics on government, religion, and mental health. Now it’s much more lax to talk on those subjects on not just songs but anywhere publicly. They pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable in the eyes of the people.
@@anthonytoo yeah, plenty of their music was banned from radio stations due to their lyrics on like sex, greed, war, drugs,. etc. Pretty much the dark truths of society. They’re definitely legends ✊
Melon in Zico's line is said to refer to the Melon music charts in S.Korea he came back after 1 year and swallowed the melon till its last peel, meaning he broke the charts and topped em all with a perfect-all-kill
i remember he had the all kill, but he's pretty much saying he didn't just win an award (taking a bite) he did everything he could with the melon charts (eating it all to the peel) -- aaahhh that's clean!
Just so you know, the second rapper is called Mithra and before starting his career as a rapper, he actually was a poet. He also used to be part of an underground rap crew before joining Epik High and his flow is freaking insane. He's super talented. And yes, DJ Tukutz (the guy with the glasses) is in charge of making the beats while Tablo & Mithra write Lyrics. They are completly self produced and do everything on their own.
if i remember correctly, yoongi said one of the songs that got him into rap/inspired him to be a rapper was fly by epik high. i don't know if you know this but yoongi and tablo are actually close now and yoongi produced a song on their last project. i highly recommend checking their albums out.
Think Zico meant that when he left Block B and the agency to start his own, people saying it was the end for him. Since then he went on to release 2 albums and 2 hit singles. Anysong and Summer Hate recently won song of the month for their respective charting months at the Golden Disk Awards, for example.
Epik High are the ones who paves the way together with BigBang especially in lyricist and HipHop,. Tablo is a genius interms of IQ and artistry.. They are the true people who paved the way. #YGFamily forever
I loved this, Epik high really does have such a unique style, and Cl's Stage presence is no joke. Whenever I listen to Zicos lyrics it is so meaningful the way him and tablo have such a way with words are why they are some of my favorite khiphop artists
this is what i’ve found out after years of searching online for the english translation of Mithra’s verses, they’re not just rap but like poetry...if i’m not wrong someone commented that it is hard to translate to english as it would lose it’s meaning from Korean
... EPIK HIGH IS NOT KPOP IDOLS!!! they not OG YG, they released most of the albums before joining and they been barely in the YG to release 2 albums and left. They more woohlin before they ever been YG
@@404gram and woolin dumped them when that stupid scandal happened. I know people don’t like yg but you gotta admit that yg is the only one who helped them when the industry shunned them. Although yes I agree, they aren’t kpop. They are khiphop.
EPIK HIGH DONT NEED THAT AGENCY HELP TO PAVED THEIR OWN WAY YG AND WOOLIM NOT HELP THEM AT ALL THEY DO THEY OWN SHIT AND YG TREAT EPIK HIGH AND 2NE1 LIKE SHIT CALL 2NE1 UGLY AND NOW MANY BLACKPINK FANS HATE CL THEY CALL CL JEALOUS ABOUT JENNIE THEY ATTACK CL ON INSTAGRAM
One of the members of BTS (Namjoon) has recommended one of the songs of this album. Suga produced one song from them too. And BTS has mentioned them several times. Like hip hop phile
The "I paved the way for everyone paving the way" and Tablo's line from "In Self Defense" (from this album ft changmo, nucksal, and woo wonjae, it's fire!!) "name a fuckin' rapper we ain't influenced" are my favorite lines,,,,, seriously gave me chills, he's speaking the truth. not sure if other commenters have mentioned but suga has named epik high's "fly" as one of the songs that inspired him to start rapping. they've name dropped epik high quite a few times in their lyrics as "sunbaes" they really respect and have also sampled epik high's stuff for their earlier albums as well. tablo like rm was an incredibly poet and writer (he's published a book of short stories) and both of them have a very similar poetic lyricism. this is just a random fact but tablo mentioned that rm came over his place to hang out once and tablo's manager had to drive rm home because either rm or tablo could drive lmao oh btw dj tukutz is pronounced "two cuts"!
If you want to go really deep into the history they are not lying about legends and paving the way. BTS themselves were partially inspired by Epik High. In case you didn’t know, Epik High has a “map the soul” era which is in line with BTS’s map of the soul 😉 To be fair Jungian psychology is a common source of inspiration, but yeah 😁 They are friends now~~ 💜 In general I think both groups have a lot of overlap in musical philosophy~ love them so much 💜💜💜
Love that CL is coming in surrounded by roses and dressed like an angel of death. Makes me think of the poem Sunday Morning with the line, "Death is the mother of beauty". And all those short angled rooms looking like 6 ft under/graves. Seriously killed it with the imagery in this one.
Epik high and Tablo never ever disappoint! They’re music is their own. Also if you noticed, one of the scene was the same as born hater, like the set. Not sure if they entire video was from the same set as born hater
It’s just crazy, those fandoms claiming their idols paved the way. For a KPOP fan since 2011, they had me laughing hard.....really hard. 😂 How much more 2003 fans felt? 😂🤣😅
As a fan since 2007 these new fans sound dumb as f*** 90% of the time. Like at least give credit where it’s due. No house can exist without a foundation.
the term paved the way wasn't even used in kpop before bts and by paved the way we mean to the WEST. We don't say bts created kpop or some shit. Kpop isn't a unique genre and took so much from black people itself but that's another discussion.
KPOP fans nowadays throw the terms like "legend" and "king/queen" around so much that it's lost its meaning. True legends are people like Epik High and CL who laid down the foundation for KPOP to be what it is today. You disagree? They have some words for you. "Ain't no one giving a fuck what you say."
This is basically Born Hater 2.0. The iconic bathroom from born hater is even used here too. And the direction of the mv reminded me of bh too. This song will surely go down in history like Born Hater did 🔥💯 Tablo is really a brilliant lyricist and musician and its an accumulation of talent, years of experience and lots of bs he went through in life, MAD RESPECT FOR THE GUY 🙌 and ofcourse Zico and CL too 💯💯
@@qwertyyyy7 Young group doesn’t mean young in age (it also implies that group being mentioned is much younger than other groups) For example: SUJU debuted in 2005, BIGBANG debuted in 2006, SNSD debuted in 2007 and 2NE1 debuted in 2009 Please think Broadly aka openly too Thank you
Wondering if you ever checked out Tablo and Eric Nam when they did a song (all english) with Gallant? Cave Me In....You will add it to your playlist if you have not already!!!
tablo tweeted your video!! also the members of epik high are: tablo - rapper, leader/face of group, lyricist, producer mithra jin - rapper, producer, lyricist dj tukutz - turntablist, engineer, producer they all take part in the making of their albums and do the majority of it on their own in addition to working with different ppl each album! id definitely recommend checking out more of their music! theyve collabed with soooo many people. also at 5:44 (in your video) tablo is in the bathroom from born hater!
I love that you took your time to actually understand the lyrics at the end. It actually opened my eyes to more nuances I didn't see the first couple of times I heard the song
Many artists in kpop in this new generation are actually huge fans on Epik High and look up to them. Epik High quite literally paved the way for these future artists in kpop who are currently paving the way. Members of kpop such as Suga and RM idolize Epik High when they were trainees and even now when they are idols
I've been following Epik High since 2007 when they released the album Remapping the Human Soul. Their songs Fan and Love Love Love stirred South Korean rap to the more mainstream, less underground audience, mainly due to Tablo's literary approach to his rap lyrics. Shoebox - which was released in 2014 - is still one of my favorite albums ever. I totally agree that they are legendary and they rightfully can say that they have paved the way for many other artists *no matter which way you interpret it*. I'm just excited that they are still putting out awesome music.
BTS has mentioned Epik High, Tiger JK and Dynamic Duo as their inspiration multiple times in many songs! (Hip Hop Phile, Second Grade, Road/Path, etc.) and all of them have collaborated with the BTS rapline and are all close friends so it's just amazing to see industry ROYALTIES interacting with one another! Yoongi and Joon are also big CL fans and CL herself has mentioned how impactful BTS is and basically this is a circle of A-class artists saying fuck you to anyone who underestimates their significance to the music game now in SK. Love to see it ☝🏽😌 Also Eternal Sunshine was produced by Yoongi on Epik High's last album so you should check that out! And Tablo who produced Song Request by the renowned singer Lee Sora suggested that Yoongi rap on the track. Lee Sora gave the first ever rap feature of her discography to Yoongi that way!! Basically it's just a big family lmfao
i love how there are paving each others way :) just because one came before the other one, doesnt mean the way that was paved before cant be blocked by new obstacles in the music and entertainment industry. new rules, new players, new everything and still, epik high, bts and any other influential music act stay on top of the game :)
suga is called the "hand of midas" in korea. but his idol was epik high , he still takes tablo's advices. i think that people are always paving the way.. without listening to tablo, suga would have never taken the risk of coming to seoul to be a producer. suga and tablo go a long way back actually. they call each other before releasing music to ask about opinions and recommend collaborations.
bts, especially the rapline, were heavily inspired by epik high especially their song "fly" which is what made yoongi want to be a songwriter/producer/rapper. they have always mentioned epik high, ex ("hip-hop phile lyrics) and epik high have always supported them back even when they weren't big. they're close friends now! yoongi has worked on a few songs with them, and they text a lot not only asking for advice on a project but also just to congratulate each other on achievements or to just chat n comment on the latest drama (namjoon and tablo texting abt sky castle finale) it's pretty cute.
Youre such a baby how could you not hear epik high. Theyre the pioneer of korean rap. Take the time to losten to their new playlist theyve ensemble on their yt channel
YG ARTIST FROM THEN TILL NOW ARE LEGENDS PERIOD!!.. no one can top that when it comes to swag, hiphop, and Rap esp. In Originality, style, vibe, and artistry over all 🔥🤘
This was so so goood! Real legends!! My favs in one track dream come true!! Please react to more Epik High! They’re album We’ve done something wonderful is sooo goood! And this new one as well!!
Oh you definitely need to listen to the whole album. This one and their past albums. Because you're missing out if you don't. Lol. I don't usually watch reaction videos but Tablo tweeted it himself so here I am. Thank you for doing a video for this song. Epik High really are legends. Love these guys. Their concerts are lit too.
i gotta say "sleepless in __________" was my favourite music release of 2019 and was pretty much my first introduction to epik high. kinda changed my life. so it would be pretty epic if you did check it out, i fully support that
Yass I've been waiting for your reaction because you are one of the fewest reactors who genuinely enjoy Khip hop and consistently reacting to Khip hop music. You should check out the whole album! It's a masterpiece !
THEY SPAZZED BRUH LOL.. So after reading the lyrics again I'm under the impression that this song is aimed at the industry/fans putting pressure on artists in various ways and bringing attention towards it since nothing is changing over the time it's existed?

True crime is just *chefs kiss* but seriously every song in this album was just amazing
“I paved the way for everyone that is paving the way”
FACTS ONLY

i know of the producing i just haven't heard the song (& didn't know tablo prod. song request) but aye that's whats up!
Yeah . Epik High's fly. Plus rapline have mentioned them as inspirations in hip-hop phile and path/road too.
Do you mean that was Eternal Sunshine?
It just prove that when Tablo sayd "I paved the way for everyone that Is paving the way" he not lying. Epik High Is legendary!
Think Zico meant that when he left Block B and the agency to start his own, people saying it was the end for him. Since then he went on to release 2 albums and 2 hit singles.

Acceptance speech is so good
Bruuuh. I want them to perform in MAMA with this song. Jeez. Low-key dissing haters and charts. Hahahahaha.
Not gonna happen bro😣
Yeah. Like Born Heater...
They won't perform at MAMA. Award shows take advantage of the artist. They make money off the awards shows and expect artists to perform for free.

just because one came before the other one, doesnt mean the way that was paved before cant be blocked by new obstacles in the music and entertainment industry. new rules, new players, new everything and still, epik high, bts and any other influential music act stay on top of the game :)
suga is called the "hand of midas" in korea. but his idol was epik high , he still takes tablo's advices. i think that people are always paving the way.. without listening to tablo, suga would have never taken the risk of coming to seoul to be a producer. suga and tablo go a long way back actually. they call each other before releasing music to ask about opinions and recommend collaborations.
Tablo tweeted your reaction!!!!
Epik High is amazing, check out Tablo's solo music too. He has a track with Joey Badass
Yo bro you're sleeeeeeping on those legends
Yooooooo That shirt NICE! Wasn't expecting that ahahah
thanks m8!
the album is amazinggg
bts, especially the rapline, were heavily inspired by epik high especially their song "fly" which is what made yoongi want to be a songwriter/producer/rapper. they have always mentioned epik high, ex ("hip-hop phile lyrics) and epik high have always supported them back even when they weren't big. they're close friends now! yoongi has worked on a few songs with them, and they text a lot not only asking for advice on a project but also just to congratulate each other on achievements or to just chat n comment on the latest drama (namjoon and tablo texting abt sky castle finale) it's pretty cute.
This song so dope🔥🔥🔥🔥
The whole album 👏👏👏 just finished my pre-order for this album
So glad you checked this out 😍🤩
I was waiting for u 🥺
'Melon' is Korea's top music streaming chart, and you can get meaning.

Tablo tweeted about you!
Hey tablo tweeted your video!
Oh you definitely need to listen to the whole album. This one and their past albums. Because you're missing out if you don't. Lol. I don't usually watch reaction videos but Tablo tweeted it himself so here I am. Thank you for doing a video for this song. Epik High really are legends. Love these guys. Their concerts are lit too.
TABLO SHARED YOUR REACTION ON TWITTER!!!!
tablo is definitely lyrical assassin !!!
Came for Epik High ft. CL & Zico, stayed for the Doberman
I think that same doberman was in the mv for Epik High's Don't Hate Me. Maybe it belongs to one of them.
Yessssss
i gotta say "sleepless in __________" was my favourite music release of 2019 and was pretty much my first introduction to epik high. kinda changed my life. so it would be pretty epic if you did check it out, i fully support that
Yass I've been waiting for your reaction because you are one of the fewest reactors who genuinely enjoy Khip hop and consistently reacting to Khip hop music. You should check out the whole album! It's a masterpiece !
EPIK HIGH is legend. For someone who doesn't like rap and stuff EPIK HIGH is the only one I listen to and feel things!
Omg Tablo lo compartió
OK THAT WAS FAST
Heyy
CL YASS
Is everyone else missing my brother wearing a Cradle of Filth T-shirt? Shit haven't seen that group in like 15 years!
True Crime ft Miso and The End of the World ft Gsoul was my fav. Anyway the whole album was fire.
