Groups:
Description: Kingdom have made a career for themselves out of blending traditional music full of percussion and strings with pop and trap to tell the stories of kings from the mythical Chico of China to the very real Ivan The Terrible, exploring countries along the way.
Description: Though she’s now more known for her acting in shows like Business Proposal and her OST’s, Sejeong’s album Door skips its way through Celtic folk with splashes of country, especially in tracks like In The Rain or Voyage.
Description: An iconic figure in kpop since her smash hit 10 Minutes all the way back in 2003, Hyori refuses to chain herself to one genre or one kind of expression. In her most recent full length album, she tackled a Spaghetti Western sound.
