Map the Soul

Song: Map the Soul Artist: Epik High ft. Tablo, MYK, Kero OneAlbum: Map the Soul
Epik High Members:Tablo: Born in Seoul on July 22, 1980. His family relocated several times to Indonesia, Switzerland and HK until Tablo was six, when his family returned to South Korea. His family moved to Canada when he was eight. Tablo attended St. George’s until he was expelled due to trouble in 9th grade (LOL so like Tablo to do that). He then returned to Seoul and spent three years in Seoul International School. In 2002, Tablo graduated from Stanford University in California with a masters degree in English Lit. He played the piano when he was six, and switched to violin, which he played for 10 years. However, he ceased to play violin as he was dismissed from the orchestra after suddenly playing the soundtrack of Jurassic Park (WHAT?!?! HAHA) while the orchestra was playing Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in a concert. He got married last year, 2009, to Korean actress Kang Hye-jeong, and they are expecting their first child in the middle of 2010.“So many songs, on a daily basis, flood the ears of the public with titillating words like ‘seduction’ and ‘sexy’. Before writing the lyrics to “map the soul’ we made a short list of the words that are getting increasingly difficult to hear in this time and age. Words we would like to hear more often on the radio…Dying words: soul, eternity, destiny, gratitude, sincerity, peace, inspiration, faith, passion, beauty, music……” -Tablo
(after reading that quote from him, i was definately inspired and awed.)
Mithra: Met Tablo at poetry readings, as he was a poet whose poems also worked as rhymes.
DJ Tukutz: First got into DJ-ing in the summer of 1995 while spending his time at illegal raves and warehouse parties, where his passion for the scene and music began. He started playing at local raves and parties in Japan’s underground hip-hop scene, before moving up to South Korea in 2000 to attend the Technics DJ School. After returning from the academy, he partnered up with Tablo and headed to the States. He worked and DJ-ed on radio shows, live events and clubs around the Boston and New York City area.
 
“After our special album ‘Epilogue’ reached the number one spot on the iTunes hip-hop album chart, a CNN reporter flew all the way to Korea to meet with me personally. ” (‘Epilogue‘ was released on March 9th, and attained the #1 spot on iTunes the very next day.)
This definately proves how amazing Epik High really is.
