Interesting. I like his name, and I liked the blues in the MV, which is what made me click. His sounds makes me think of music from the late 80s/ very early 90s. He's kinda sing-talking, and sometimes it works, while others it seems slightly off-key or off pitch. Something. It's not a jam, but it definitely is interesting. I might look into something else he does to see how consistent he is with this style or with the quality of his voice. Anyway, thanks for the share OP. :)

Welcome, I'm glad you liked it! There's more of his music if you go back in the tag.

OP, were you the one that shared those 'Live and Direct' live performances he did of tracks from the previous album? Those put me onto the guy! He's a unique fellow and I like that he's a difficult artist to pin down. Like was mentioned before, this track does channel 80s funk and electro quite heavily - a rather safe endeavour on his part but executed quite well, which I appreciate. The sound, in conjuction with the aesthetic, is actually very reminiscent of Prince (R.I.P.), the entire thing almost seems an homage but that's probably coincidental!

Anyway, I'll be sure to give this album a listen, thought the last one was a solid effort: good amount of variety and experimentation, and some great standout tracks like '살아' and 'When I Grow Up' which still get a decent amount of plays from me months later.
