Epik High's Tablo Reveals Latest Single "Airbag"

Many of you may have heard about Epik High Tablo's recent transfer to YG Entertainment by now, which is home to some of Kpop's most talented acts such as 1TYM, Jinusean, Big Mama, Se7en, Gummy, Big Bang, 2NE1 and Psy,
and I was really happy for Tablo after hearing that. After years of
being surrounded by the whole "fake education" controversy, I am just
glad that he's back at last. I personally am a big fan of Epik High. I
first heard of them when I was in primary school even though I knew
little of Kpop back then. I totally remember being like, "Oh, these guys are amazing..."
while listening to their songs back in the day. They are one of Kpop's
most popular HipHop groups of all time and they were one of those
groups who set the bar for other HipHop artists to follow in the
succeeding years. And if you are going to look at Kpop today compared
to how it was before, we have to thank legendary groups, Epik High
being one of them, for paving the way for other HipHop acts to follow
suit because we have some of the most talented HipHop artists in both
underground and mainstream Kpop today.
I'm pretty sure that most
of us know Tablo (Daniel Armand Lee or Lee Seon Woong) not just as a
member of Epik High, but also as a graduate of the prestigious Standford University.
He has a Bachelor's Degree in English Literature and a Master's Degree
in Creative Writing (if I am not mistaken) from the aforesaid
university, but many detractors and anti-fans have questioned his
educational attainment ever since he debuted with Epik High. As the
group's popularity continued to rise, the situation got worse, which
eventually led to the star acquiring a mild form of depression or
something like that from the entire mess. I have watched how he
responded, reacted and coped with the never-ending controversy over the
years and as a fan, I can help but be sad for him. I don't know where
all the hate is coming from and why many refuse to believe that he has
indeed acquired "that kind" of education from a good school. I'm sorry
for saying this, but I think it's plain stupid and immature for a lot
of Korean citizens to bash the man and claim that he has faked his
educational background for his personal gain. For what reason? To be
popular? To stand out from the rest of his peers (singers) in the
industry? I guess there's no need do that because at the end of the
day, real talent, dedication and passion trumps everything else, so
resorting to fraud just to be able to step above the shadows and stand
out above everyone else wouldn't even be necessary at all.
The
song is simple, but it is beautiful. I don't know if he wrote the
lyrics of the song himself because it basically talks about his life in
recent years and how he has been dealing with all of the controversies
and issues that are being thrown at him by the public.I like how he
associated "asking for help or support" to an airbag, which is
reflected by the line "I need an airbag" throughout the song.
The melody is simple and familiar. It is probably something that we
have all heard before, but knowing that Tablo's singing the song makes
me appreciate it even more because I can feel his pain and I know what
he is going through. It's emotional, deep and an honest confession of
his thoughts and inner feelings that the general public doesn't know.

The Blogger
Not a lot of people know (or would even understand), but I am also a victim of drama obsession. I've been camping in dramalandia since I was 13 years old, and that's where you will most likely find me when I have nothing to do.
One of the symptoms of this disease is daydreaming about dramas everywhere whether you are at work, walking down the stairs, sleeping, even as you are walking...creepy isn't it? Hahaha!
I am also a big Asian music fan and I think Asian music rocks! I go back and forth from Cpop to Kpop and Jpop, so I may be different (and strange) compared to other people that you can find around. I am an elder sister , a dreamer , a believer , a gamer , wanderer , blogger , an optimist , an ultimate foodie and a, hands down, fangirl . I love reading books , writing , music , photography and traveling.
I am a nurse by profession who is also a copy editor and a freelance writer . I enjoy learning how to play musical instruments and learning various languages . I am crazy, loud, spontaneous, free-spirited and most of the time, a klutz.
Eren Asentista a.k.a. Eray, 23, female, from Dumaguete City, Philippines. My personality...it's complicated. :D Believe me, you wouldn't want to know who I am. Hahaha! XD
I am currently watching...
In the coming days, I plan to watch...
In Asian Entertainment, I fancy...
(This is still lacking, but this is more or less it. LOL! I will most likely be updating this in the future to accommodate my growing list of biases but check em out!)
 
The things that I want to do before I die are the following:
An Asian cruise.
Templestay in Korea.
An African safari adventure.
Backpacking to Europe.
Traveling through the European railways.
