Oli London releases new K-Hip Hop Music Video 'Lockdown City'

Oli London, the BTS Jimin superfan, has just made his K-Hip Hop Debut with his new single Lockdown City, featuring South Korean based rapper Sten.


Oli London, is a familiar name in the K-pop scene having become the first non-Korean K-Pop artist in Europe when he released his debut K-pop single 'Perfection' in February 2019. Now he has ventured into the world of Korean hip hop and thus opening up the genre to new European audiences. 

His new single debuted at #24 on the itunes K-Pop chart within a few hours of release and remained in the itunes top 30 for the first 8 hours of release.

The new single is accompanied by an artistic and thrilling music video inspired by the movies The Purge, Resident Evil and Sin City. The video features an abandoned mansion in a desolate world 'Lockdown City', where everything is abandoned and people are locked up and living on the edge. The music video was shot in both the UK and Korea and features a blend of Korean and English lyrics to help make K-Hip Hop appeal to European and American audiences.




Sten, the Korean rapper who features in the new single talked about his input in the song "I wanted to rap about the current lockdown situation and to talk about topics that everyone can relate to right now, being locked up and feeling trapped yet still wanting to continue with life".
