PLT is a K-Hip-Hop and K-R&B group that debuted in 2018. On September 16, 2018, PLT released their hit track “IGOHOLIC'' to the world. Their R&B and hip-hop blend of music is so good and is such a joy to listen to that you can’t help but dance along. This track is mighty and wicked. Just from one listen, you get hooked and want to stream this song 24/7. The members June, Moti, Gaho, and former members VILLAIN and Jung Jinwoo are all solo artists who have fantastic music. PLT are amazing artists, and their music needs to be listened to. 

VILLAIN - “Manitto” 

“Yeah, I’m a lotta things, but I’m not a liar,” is the first line of a great song. VILLAIN released his song “Manitto” on August 1, 2018, and wow, this song is incredible. VILLAIN is an amazing rapper, singer, and lyricist. VILLAIN is known for incorporating house music, R&B, and hip-hop together and creating addictive songs. “Manitto” is featured on his EP Bank Robber, which has six tracks that get you hooked. VILLAIN is a big name in the K-Hip-Hop genre, and his music is remarkable. “Manitto” is a track we should all listen to and repeat. 

DPR Live - “Martini Blue” 

“Martini Blue” is so much fun! DPR Live is a household name in the K-Hip-Hop genre. It was so hard to pick just one song. All of his music is extraordinary, and we all know at least five of his tracks; I’m pretty sure you know this one. On December 7, 2018, “Martini Blue” was released, and we all got instantly hooked. The moment you hear this groovy hip-hop track, you instantly sway to the beat. DPR Live’s flow is insane. The way he rides the beat is mind-blowing. If I could hear this track for the first time again, I would. “Martini Blue,” is a banger that needs to be on everyone’s playlist.

pH-1 - “Malibu (feat. The Quiett, Mokyo) (Prod. Mokyo)”

This heavy hitter of a song rocked our worlds when it dropped. If you had to list top-tier K-Hip-Hop tracks, this song would definitely be there. pH-1 who is a huge name in this genre, came together with two other big names in K-Hip-Hop, The Quiett and Mokyo to make this banger, “Malibu.” The flow of this track is incredible. What I like so much about this song is that each rapper raps at their flow. They stick to their signature sounds and stay true to themselves. The newsroom-inspired video is so cool and was the icing on the cake to this enjoyable track. It’s definitely a song that needs to be on your playlist. It’s exciting, awesome, and overall really fun.
