BANG YONGGUK gets fast & furious in his new single ‘Race’
Former B.A.P member continues to claim his place in the Korean Rap game
Bang Yong-Guk AKA YONGGUK is a rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and even a best-selling author. Safe to say he’s a DUDE in the Korean celebrity space, but ever since going solo in 2018 he’s continued to rack up hits as a rapper.
‘Race’ is a slickly produced Trap production that feels like it could be a title song for one of the never-ending Fast and Furious movies. In the video, YONGGUK drives a sleek luxury sports car through a futuristic cyber matrix, crashes, runs himself over, and still comes out unscathed.
The beat is driving [pun intended] and straddles the Hip Hop and Pop worlds with him singing the chorus and rhyming over a wailing lead guitar. YONGGUK’s deep baritone rhyming and smooth charisma carry the rest.
