KOREANGROOVE 4th LP [ENERGY]
코리안그루브 4집 [에너지]

힙합 아티스트들, 그것도 열 명이 넘는 무리의 리더가 된다는 건 쉽지 않은 일입니다.
이름부터 집단의 태도를 드러내는 ‘프레밀리(FRML)’는 노원과 상계를 기반으로 뭉친 힙합 크루입니다.
크루의 대장 코리안그루브(KOREANGROOVE)는 지난 십 년간 동료들과 함께 의미 있는 궤적을 그려왔습니다.
혹자는 말합니다. ‘리더는 줄 게 있어야 한다.’ 코리안그루브가 가진 리더십은 ‘에너지’입니다.
네거티브란 찾아볼 수 없는 표정으로 언제나 “렛스 고”를 외치는 그의 모습은, 마치 젊은 스타트업 대표의 기세와 오버랩되기도 합니다.

코리안그루브의 새로운 정규 앨범 [ENERGY]는 총 네 개의 막으로 구성되어 있습니다.
좌절, 분노, 사랑, 회복이라는 감정의 축이 네 가지의 연료처럼 앨범을 움직이며 작동합니다.
젊음과 눈물, 도시의 밤, 무대, 사랑과 가족의 키워드와 삶의 장면들이 자연스럽게 얽히며 스무 개의 트랙에 차곡히 소분됩니다.
각 챕터의 사운드는 감정선에 따라 가라앉았다가 치솟는 롤러코스터 같은 전개로 긴 앨범을 지루하지 않게 끝까지 끌고 가며 관성을 유지합니다.
밀도 있는 중저음 톤의 랩은 때로는 고전적인 리듬의 비트를 타고, 때로는 트렌드 최전선의 퍼포먼스로 스펙트럼을 보여줍니다.

언뜻, [ENERGY]는 코리안그루브가 발표하는 사업 설명서 같기도 합니다. “우리가 이만큼 준비되어 있다” 브리핑하는 투자 제안서처럼 들리기도 합니다. 개인의 이야기를 내뱉지만, 그를 통해 단체의 힘이 함께 과시됩니다. ‘리더’라는 네러티브가 존재하기 때문입니다.
이제 씬의 중심 좌표는 코리안그루브와 프레밀리의 세대를 가리키고 있습니다. 그들은 온도 조절이 서툴던 이십 대를 막 지나왔습니다.
현재진행형, ‘바로 지금’이라는 현실감. [ENERGY]는 그가 분명 줄 것이 있는 리더임을 보여줄 스팀팩이 될 것입니다.
