다이나믹 듀오 (Dynamic Duo) – GRAND CARNIVAL
Release Date: Nov 17,
2015
Genre: Rap / Hip-hop
Language: Korean
“Grand Carnival” is actually the name of the
Dynamic Duo’s tour van – yes, as in a Kia Grand Carnival (aka
Kia Sedona). Korea Times reports: “They
spend more time in the van than they do at home, eating, sleeping, playing
games and producing music. Their idea with the album is to share their stories
of life as musicians.” The cover art carries this concept out as well – the
accordion-fold photo spread is a collage depicting their life on the road and
in the van. The artists appear sweaty, deranged, exhausted, yet exuberant, and
frequently pants-less…clearly having an all around grand time.
Gaeko and Choiza took a break from music production and outsourced most of it this time around so that they solely could focus on lyric writing. The lyrical content is chiefly autobiographical – exploring their lives and experiences as hip hop artists and 30-something Koreans. Themes include the struggle to earn a living, paying bills, wondering where one’s life is going, chasing love’s flame…the usual 30-something angsts.
This album featuring with K-hip
hop icon like Verbal Jint and idol-rapper ZICO, all featuring vocalists are
up-and-coming artists, including R&B newcomer DEAN, Sway D of Hi-Lite Records, YG Entertainment songstress Lydia Peak,
and the LA-based Korean American rapper, nafla (Nicholas Choi) -an excellent example of Amoeba
Culture’s ongoing efforts to highlight and support new artists. (Taken
