10/23 , Release of Epik High’s 7th Album [99]

2012.10.17
Hi, this is YG Entertainment. 
This announcement provides you information on 
the release of Epik High’s 7th album [99]. 


Epik High, who have received so much love from fans by beloved songs 
such as `FLY`, `FAN`, ‘LOVE LOVE LOVE`, `ONE`, `우산`, and `1분 1초’, 
are returning in 3 years with completely new styles. 


As celebrating 9th year anniversary since debut, Epik High, who madly love number `9`, 
have included 9 songs with various styles (plus one short tune) in the upcoming album. 
Therefore Epik High’s 7th album has been entitled `99` 
and the title also embraces the meaning of the music of 99% people, not upper 1%. 


`It’s Cold`, a prereleased song that has recorded `all-kill` in music charts 
by amazing voices of Epik High and Lee Hi prior to unveiling the album,
`UP`, the title song that is a combination of Old school Hip Hop and Rock, 
and a unique ‘power-combi’ work done by the collaboration of 
Epik High and Park Bom from 2NE1,
`DON’T HATE ME`, a song that represents brave outsiders through Alternative Rock, 
as well as is the double title song promoting `Anti-Hate` campaign,
`사랑한다면 해선 안될 말`, talking about the regret of the past in a humorous way 
through 80’s Old Pop,
`아까워`, a song through which Epik High’s rap and a mellow voice of 개코 from Dynamic Duo 
have `street sensibility duel`on Beatbox
`비켜`, a song, for Epik High’s true fans, that will be available on offline (CD) only,
`악당`, a wicked song that shouts out it is better to be a wild bad boy than a dull hero
`Ghost`, a gloomy tune 
`KILL THIS LOVE`, a dark, classical song projected through Electro and Dubstep sounds,
and to `NEW BEAUTIFUL`, a cheering song for `people in a fringe group` 
who endures and live in inflexible society …
Likewise, Epik High’s 7th album [99] contains their various styles.

▶ Keyword #1 : POSITIVE! 
The color of Epik High’s music, which was turning calmer and darker 
and now after `FLY` released in 2003, has now regained brightness and positiveness. 
This change is especially pleasant news after eventful moments in the past. 
Of course, their typical image of `bad boys` as what they have been called 
is embedded as well. 


▶ Keyword #2 : RETRO!
Unfamiliar music genres from the past 
such as Alternative Rock, Brit Pop, Old Pop and Old School Hip Hop 
are reintroduced by Epik High through using their own color.
With a thought of wishing to remind themselves of their beginning, 
Epik High have included sentiments and sound of the music they loved as listeners. 


We hope you enjoy the album and 
would like to express our appreciation of your continuing interest and support. 


Thank you,
YG Entertainment
