Epik High releases “Shoebox” album sampler
Epik High has just released an album sampler that showcases the trio’s synergy with the sound of the talented artists of their star-studded lineup ahead of their album release. With the album sampler, Epik High teases fans ahead of the release of their first album in 3 years by revealing only a few seconds of each of their 12 new tracks.
Instead of only including clips of members of Epik High, the album release showcases many of the featured artists, expressing the fusion of Epik High’s style with the sound of other talented artists. The album will feature a packed line-up of well known artists, including Big Bang‘s Taeyang, Dynamic Duo‘s Gaeko, Nell‘s Kim Jong Wan, Younha, Jay Park, Verbal Jint, WINNER‘s Mino, Beenzino, B.I.,Bobby, MYK, TBNY‘s Yankie, and Roller Coaster‘s Cho Won Sun.
Each clip is accompanied by a close up of the full album cover: a drawing of a ballerina, cropped to show only her ballet shoes. In addition, the title of each song is handwritten in Korean and translated into English by Tablo himself, as he had stated in a tweet earlier this week.
Recently, Epik High released the music video for “Born Hater” with a star-studded cast featuring B.I, Beenzino, Verbal Jint, WINNER’s Mino, and Bobby, and reached over 1 million views in less than a day! Tablo’s daughter Haru has also showed her support for her daddy’s new album by promoting it often on Instagram as Epik High gears up for their first concert in 5 years following the album’s release.
In addition to the album’s release, music videos for Epik High’s double title tracks “Spoiler” and “Happen Ending” will be released on October 21st. It has also just been announced that “Spoiler” will be starring rumored YG Entertainment girl group member, Kim Ji Soo as the heroine.
Anticipation is running high as the release date draws near! Are you ready for Epik High’s comeback?
