45RPM have come back with their second album since the release of their first back in 2005. With their first album, 45RPM were known for their fun rhythm and sleek rapping skills. With fourteen brand new tracks, their second album is an upgrade from their first. The title track, Small Thud, is a remake of the 70s song originally sung by Jung Hoon Hee. She has helped 45RPM out by featuring in parts of the song. Jung’s traditional Korean melody and 45RPM’s rap bring a new flavor to this song. Other songs to watch out for are A Whisper that Finds Happiness, Please, Show Time, and Summer Day. The song, Hey DJ, is a disco track reminiscent of the 80s style. Various artistes such as Gummy and underground hip-hop artistes including PeeJay, J-DoggSugar Flow, and DJ Murf were featured in the album.
