Q: You moved to a new agency 'Black Label', what has changed?
Many people think that much has changed with moving to a new agency, however, the overall music-making staff and producers are all the same. What has changed is the fact that I can now make my own music freely.
Q: It seems your music style has changed?
There is some pressure to a degree. With switching labels, and with the atmosphere changing, I felt pressured in thinking: would people accept my music? How will they perceive it and similar sentiments.
Q: How were you able to make a comeback in such a short period of time?
In the past, I was well received due to the rarity in the hip-hop culture. There weren't that many hip-hop vocalists then. I got many offers from other artists but now I feel like completion is more important. I will continue to make music with passionate people until it is completed.
Q: How would you compare YG's Yang Hyun Suk to Teddy from Black Label?
I've only met Yang Hyun Suk a few times. He's like the sunlight to me, giving me energy from afar. With Teddy, I see him as a role model; someone I admire. I had been a huge fan of him ever since I was little. He supported me while I was producing my album. He has a discerning eye and is someone that I can trust and rely on.
Q: Is Teddy the reason you decided to move to Black Label?
I've known the staff at Black Label for a while. We naturally just came to work together.
