Beenzino Essentials

Beenzino Essentials

Beenzino dresses up funky beats with art school swagger. The South Korean rapper got his start in the late '00s dropping sing-song rhymes over soul-sampling tracks, first as a member of producer Primary's P'Skool project and then with Jazzyfact, his partnership with DJ Shimmy Twice. Since going solo in 2012, he's expanded his musical palette. After the jazz-flavoured “Dali, Van, Picasso” became his calling card, he hooked up with Southern-style rap crew Illionaire Records for harder cuts like “What U Know” and played with punk drums on “Break”—always keeping his smooth flow and sense of humour.
