Tablo reveals his painstaking efforts to get The Black Skirts to join HIGHGRND

Tablo
You guys are already aware that awesome indie one-man band, The Black Skirts, has joined Tablo's label HIGHGRND, expanding their already talented roster of acts. 


But finding talent is not easy, and Tablo attested as much on the January 8 airing of MBC's 'Tei's Dreaming Radio.'

DJ Tei remarked at his guest, "I heard about HIGNGRND's latest news. I saw the articles that came out and found out that The Black Skirts, who have been picked as other artists' favorite artist, joined your label." 


Tablo replied, "[The Black Skirts] is an artist I've really liked since way back. When I was working on releasing my solo album, I wanted to request for him to feature [on one of my songs] but unfortunately, I couldn't reach him. As I was doing radio, I played The Black Skirts a lot, and somehow, our paths crossed and he decided to join my label." 


The rapper continued, "It took a while for me to find him. He hasn't released anything new in three years. And I heard all sorts of weird rumors about him. I was trying to get his contact info to reach him myself but I heard that he stopped doing music, that he moved to Alaska, even that he became a pro gamer. I've heard all sorts of absurd tales but I persistently searched for him and was able to finally meet with him, and that's how we came to work together.


Well, we're sure glad you didn't give up! I personally love both your and The Black Skirts' music, so I can't wait to hear what you guys will be releasing in the future! If you watch the video below, you will realize it was well worth the effort!
