Forget all that mainstream shit. KPop is dying for me, and when DBSK makes a comeback, I'm praying that they won't join the ranks of the generic pop machines that are churning all the latest crap out onto the radio, TV and internet.
I know DBSK are more deep than that, but I won't stand for anymore kissy faggotry in music.
What the hell has freaking happened to the real VOICE?
It's somewhere out there, and it's being CHOKED TO DEATH.
And when V.O.S lost the inki win -- not that it matters, because real voices care about giving a performance for the sake of music sake --, I was furious. They aren't called "Voice of Soul" for no reason.
I'm also sick to death of waiting. Waiting for REAL people to come back. What do I mean by "Real People"? The real artists that exist for the music. That sing their souls out because of music. Not the superficiality that comes with "Oh, she's so beautiful~ That was so cute, she just cracks me up!".
Puhlease, comments like that make me puke. Shallow artists that create shallow fans. (And I'm pointing at a certain girl group that I despise to the core).
Remixing the Human Soul comes out 22nd of July. I don't have Map The Soul... yet... But I will. I just cannot stand the shit blasting on right now in the entertainment world, and I know that Tablo would not stand for that. Neither would Movement.
And that's why they're still out their, doing what they do best.
Keeping music alive and birthing the stuff that REALLY matters.

Lyrics:
I remember my first glimpse,
of a face,
I saw you smiled then I smiled,
I was straight, blown away,
mesmerized by your beauty from your feet to your hands.
How can one be so beautiful I don’t understand.
Heaven sent, god’s gift without a doubt in my mind.
Sometimes I wonder why our paths decided to collide.
We started off as perfect strangers,
boy meets girl, infatuation to love,
now you’re my whole entire world.
Destiny, taps me on the back, saying hello
but really it was your touch and now I know I’ll never let you go.
Then you spoke, I never heard a voice so sweet,
heavenly and from her words, man I knew this girl was deep.
Just like me.
When times to worry and times to play,
we’ll sit and stress over life or just burn the day away.
I know for sho’, in our past life we had to be friends,
living and dying together, knowing when that we would meet again.
It’s just a blessing, to have you in my life I was destined.
To be with you I’m privileged, so amazing no question,
and I’m knowing,
soon enough we’ll get where we’re going.
Just thinking about it,
I can feel my heart growing.
Am I tripping?
or is it that I finally see.
I don’t know but my heart is saying you’re the one for me.
Please believe me, I’m exactly where I want to be,
this rhyme is written from my heart to you. Sincerely.
No reason to live, without you. X4
You turn a cocooned soul
into a butterly and, lose control,
can never turn aside.
You shine like summer skies.
Like when a lover lies,
next to me and says to me,
you make me wonder why.
You are, a beautiful mystery,
every note carved into musical history,
a simile, metaphor,
words not enough to entrust to you,
trust that is true.
We must have a clue but we ask for evidence,
dwell in passing sentiments,
though we bask in eminence.
Every moment, everyday,
busy getting paid away the soul fades away into a grainy shade of gray.
I pray, that you listen to
what I say, cause I feel like a missing shoe,
this is to everything that you are,
the wild earth, a child’s birth, sun, moon and the stars.
No reason to live, without you. X4
Check it out
So I ask,
what would I be without you,
like Stevie without wonder,
hunger without food, a sheep without a Sheppard, a sleep without your message,
that despite the skeptics, in the end you were true.
And I knew that there was more to life.
And I grew, living for the light.
I took my answers, combined them with yours,
it made life exciting but it closed some doors.
Word to Christ, my life accelerated then deflated,
sunk to bottom, then elevated till I made it,
but you always had my back though,
when kids threw rocks at me, or on stage rapping.
Still, I see kids without love.
It brings tears to my soul but while they always dry up.
The world’s gone bonkers, you’re clocking fear,
and as long as I believe, you’re the reason I’m here.
No reason to live, without you. X4
L.O.V.E You I was made to be with you
Made to be with you made to be with you
L.O.V.E You I was made to be with you
Made to be with you made to be with you
L.O.V.E You I was made to be with you
Made to be with you made to be with you

This is what I call REAL.
And people aren't getting to this stuff because a lot of Epik High's stuff is banned. I agree with what Epik High says about that -- "We think that's bullshit. Good art will always get out."
KBS, SBS, and MBC can keep their superficial entertainment. But Epik High is too good not to be heard. Good art will always get out, and there are still people, than god, that are getting the message that Epik High wants to give.
The bans are ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as the "Under my skin" ban.
