INLet'sGo!

The vibe is a bit more laid-back and groovy, on H1GHR MUSIC's second compilation album, "H1GHR : BLUE TAPE," which hit streaming sites on September 16. The first track, "Champagne Diet," sets it off with a smooth bounce featuring label CEO Jay Park, rapper 28AV, Gemini and pH-1. The entire project is easy listening, and more melodic than the popular first compilation drop, "H1GHR : RED TAPE," which rolled out on September 2, with a head banger of a song titled- "The Purge."  On "H1GHR : BLUE TAPE" one of the younger labelmates, rapper BIG Naughty gets a Woogie produced track to himself on "LIVE." Singer Golden also goes solo on "Selfish," and fans get a feature on "Last Song," from up-and-coming Korean-American artist AUDREY NUNA, who recently dropped her own hot single "damn Right" on September 10.  The label's Seattle producer Cha Cha Malone and singer Phe REDS make an appearance on the ...

Seattle singer Phe REDS is back with another R&B joint. This time, he's gotten his H1GHR MUSIC label-boss and friend-- Jay Park, to feature with a smooth rap flow. The new GRAY produced track titled "Your Hands," is the type of song that puts you in the mood for a slow dance. It hit online music sites on November 23. You can also find the official audio with subtitles on the H1GHR MUSIC YouTube channel. Check out the single above and below.

A hot collaboration between Jay Park's two labels. H1GHR MUSIC's singer Phe Reds teamed up with AOMG's current only female artist - Hoody, for a new R&B track titled "Juice," produced by H1GHR MUSIC's Mokyo. The official audio hit streaming sites on September 23. Check it out below.

Fond memories of a good time with label mates, have inspired the latest track from H1GHR MUSIC artists. Titled "On The Road," the melodic hip-hop single (produced by BIG BANANA), comes to us from rappers/singers Sik-K, Woodie Gochild, pH-1 and Ted Park. The musicians were just four of the nine artists who hit the road together (from Seattle, WA, Madison, Wisconsin and South Korea), this spring for the first ever H1GHR MUSIC U.S. tour. The first stop was in Chicago, on April 26, and the last in Seattle on May 8th. "On The Road" dropped on May 28 on Apple Music/iTunes. You can find a link to it (and preview) below. The other artists on the tour, which included sold-out shows in New York and Los Angeles, were Raz Simone, Jarv Dee, Phe Reds, Avatar Darko and Co-CEO Cha Cha Malone. Co-CEO Jay Park joined the crew during their final stop in Seattle. INLet'sGo! was also in Seattle for the last stop, and witnessed a really great show. You can find our recap of th...

A lot happened during the final stop of the 2018 H1GHR MUSIC tour. The Seattle, WA concert included performances of unreleased tracks, a b-boy dance break from AOM, a music video shoot in the middle of the venue, and a surprise appearance from label co-CEO Jay Park. It all went down at The Showbox on May 8th. The night started with DJ RocRyte pumping up the crowd for Ted Park, who hit the stage with melodic energy.  Woodie Gochild delivered next with "Let's Get It," -- dancing and spitting fire, even during Jay Park's verse.  Phe Reds followed, captivating everyone with a mesmerizing version of Blackstreet's "No Diggity" and his hit song "Smile." And then there was Raz Simone, who jumped into the audience to perform a complete crowd immersion of "Only One," a Jay Park release in which he's featured on. When co-CEO Cha Cha Malone hit the stage, the crowd went crazy for their favorite producer, who's known for...
