He was featured in a number of songs on Epik's "Swan Song" album. (I loveeeeeeee track #13.) I tried to Google him without any luck. Anyone have any information on him?

(Besides the fact that he's fluent in English - I think that's pretty obvious from the album. Thank you, Captain Obvious.)

Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

[StarCrystal]

.__. I wanna know too. He was on track 6 on their album.

[Illest]

He's a nobody. Honestly, he's not even worthing finding information about. Although, my guess is he's one of Tablo's alter egos, just like D-tox. But he sounds pretty authentic. Sorry, wished I could've helped.

This may be late but he's real. He was part of the American indie band Weekend Sesh. He's been on four or five Korean songs. He definitely doesn't sound like Tablo. He was most recently featured on Pe2ny's Celebration. He always sings in English though. Is he American? Since he was part of an American band?

I, too, would like to know more about him?

[GDlovesBEE]

He is from America. I forgot his name. He was featured on Jiggy Fellaz's Xclusive album too.

Tablo, MYK, and D-Tox are ALL real MCs. The latter two are NOT alter egos of Tablo. Check out Pe2ny's album, the Jiggy Fellaz Compilation album, and electronica singer Mystic Puzzle for MYK featurings. He also featured on Kang Kyun Sung's first album (Formerly of JYP made group Noel).

joke, right?

everyone started as a nobody in the game.

MYK i think was the singer for a band, that's what i remember reading.

[jeanhee]

I'm making it a personal mission of mine to hunt this man down. Love his lyrics, love his half cocky--- attitude, LOVE LOVE LOVE (harhar). If I find out anything, I'll be sure to post it up on this thread.

[PatrickWolf]

Ha. xD And it is. Sweet. Haha.

'Celebration' was my fave song from Pe2ny's album. Sweeet. I'll have to hunt down for some other songs with him in it. xPP

That s%#$ was dope. I liked how they fed off each other's last word(s) and that one line Tablo said about s@#$% knowledge was killah.

[mkayimcherry]

MYK--an MC, DJ, producer and instrumentalist―is a one-man musical powerhouse hailing from the Bay Area. At a young age, he was the lead vocalist and MC for Weekend Sesh, a local band that specialized in hybrid hip hop. After the band parted ways, MYK moved to Seoul, Korea, where he was introduced to Tablo of Epik High. The two immediately connected and began writing music together. MYK is living in Korea, working on his debut album and also continuing to collaborate with artists in the US, such as Kero One, Jamie Jones of All For One, and Klypso (now an engineer/producer at Aftermath).

[sheart]

^ looking forward to that.

Sounds good on Epik's Map the Soul album. 'Free Music' is good and I want to know if it's him singing in 'Scenario' (cause I dunno what else in the song could be him). He should sing more XP

[Rey]

^ Indeed, I was so thrilled to learn that he would be so extensively involved with Mapthesoul album, it really warms me to know he's finally found another comfortable place to settle down and make more incredible music. Yes he is in Scenario and also 8 by 8 part 2, gosh I love it when it's all of them underground mcees together. Powerhouse ;D

Just to keep spreading about this amazing guy, here's an extract from his blog:

back to the drawing board..
3월 26th, 2009

Now that the Map the Soul album is complete, what’s next for me is my ep album. We’re trying to do a million things at once, with upcoming shows and all work involving an album release, except the creation part. The guys must be wondering what I’m up to when I go a day without a phone call or an sms. This week, every chance I get to spend a day at home I’m only doing one thing.. music. I’m starting to put each little piece of an idea together; organizing demos, beats, chord progressions, concepts, lyrics. While picking up instruments I recently neglected and exploring new sounds.

coming to an end of a long night jamming and making beats. going to bed as the sun comes up once again.
