This EP blew me away. I’ve been listening to a little Korean rap, though more of the pop variety rather than the bit more urban rap. illinit was an impressive listen because it is much more similar to the rap of the United States than I thought would be possible.

Since I can’t really understand what he’s rapping about, I’m not sure about the content but the pronunciation and flow is great. The beats themselves are so different from what I was expecting and when I listen to the EP, I keep being impressive at the overall production.

Those interested in Korean rap should listen to the variety of the styles, but illinit is one that needs to be heard.
