XG’s general producer JAKOPS (SIMON JUNHO PARK) talked about his latest song “WOKE UP” to be released on May 21st on his Instagram live broadcast on May 2nd.

“WOKE UP” is XG’s first all-rap song. The track has an unconventional style that combines 808 bass with East Asian sounds, giving off a strong hip-hop identity. Since the release of information in April, there has been no information related to the song, so a follow-up report has been awaited.

JAKOPS (SIMON) said in the stream, “WOKE UP is a work that embodies the essence of elegant and true XG, even though it has a rough, intense, and dangerous atmosphere. The Chinese stringed instrument called erhu is used for the sound.The music video and artist photo are really crazy and cool, so please look forward to it!

In addition, a snippet (part) of the song “WOKE UP” was released in the stream, and viewers were delighted with this surprise, and the clipped video is being spread on SNS.

The jacket photo of “WOKE UP” that was previously released is a shocking cover with black lips, original grills with the XG logo and fangs, and a mosaic on the inside of the mouth. It had been a hot topic, but the official jacket photo, in which the mosaic was gone and there was an eyeball in the mouth, was also released during the live broadcast.

On Instagram Live, he broadcast rough content for about an hour, including his feelings toward the members of JAKOPS (SIMON), his music life so far, and his own private stories, and fans responded with comments.

“I’m happy to hear so many valuable stories!”
“It was a divine episode!”
“I wanted to support XG even more!”

Many comments were received.

XG recently released the latest work “XG TAPE #4” of the rap content series “XG TAPE” which has become viral all over the world, and the hip-hop scene featured comments from Afrojack, Connor Price, Armani White, Ktlyn, etc. It once again proved the height of its identity.

It will be interesting to see what kind of work “WOKE UP” will be, which will be their first all-rap song, and what kind of music video will be released.
