NEW VIDEO DROP: AOMG - "Upside Down" - Jay Park, Simon Dominic, Loco & GRAY & their Inspirational Message


Positive vibes to inspire a generation. The message from AOMG's Jay Park, Simon Dominic, Loco and GRAY for their new hip-hop song "Upside Down" is for people to "push behind negative thoughts," and "flip it upside down."

The four artists dropped their new music video and single on May 1st. It's a collaboration with Cass Beer. The visual spirals the images of the four artists upside down during the video. It was directed by Sing J. Lee, who also directed Migos' "Stir Fry" music video.


According to a Wikitree interview, (transcribed on Twitter by @theJ_Effect), GRAY said the song's message is to "turn negative thoughts, preconceptions, and prejudices over and think positively."

Simon D said he "wrote in the lyrics that people feel a lot of pressure before doing something. So think that nobody is seeing you, and ignore all those expectations about you and you won't have any burdens and it will be fine."

In the same transcribed Wikitree interview, Jay Park said; "I think my life itself has turned upside down. I tried to overturn my thoughts and mind, whenever I thought I would have a hard time. When others were suspicious, I had to endeavor to overturn their thoughts too."

Loco in the interview said the experience of working with his labelmates was fresh, because when they first started out, they worked out of one studio. But now times have changed.

The track "Upside Down" has Jay Park, Simon Dominic, Loco and GRAY on a pretty tight beat. You can purchase it on iTunes.  It was produced by GRAY, who uploaded his process of making the music on Instagram, six days before the song's release.
