Tablo's 16-year-old daughter Haru Lee is the sole lyricist on RIIZE's comeback title track
Lee Haru, 16-year-old daughter of Epik High's Tablo, wrote the lyrics for RIIZE's 'Do Your Dance' — her first sole credit — ahead of the group's June 15 comeback.
RIIZE's second mini album II drops June 15. The title track "Do Your Dance" lists an unexpected lyricist: Lee Haru, daughter of Epik High's Tablo, credited under the name Haru Lee.
The song is uptempo dance built on hip-hop beats and electronic pop production. A distortion 808 bass anchors the repetitive hook. The album spans six tracks: "Do Your Dance," "SOAR," "D-D-Done," "Overdrive," "Like a Bomb," and "In a Loop." Choreography ties a signature hand gesture to the lyric "Do your dance like a pro" and includes a "Head, hips, shoulders, toes" pointing sequence.
Haru Lee has written before. She co-wrote "To Me From Me" for girl group KiiiKiii alongside Tablo. This RIIZE credit is her first solo one. Born in 2010 to Tablo and actress Kang Hye-jung, she grew up in the public eye through childhood appearances on KBS2's Superman Is Back.
She's currently grinding through SAT and AP exam prep for US college applications while juggling the songwriting work. (Tablo, a Stanford graduate who has written and composed across Epik High's catalog, clearly passed down more than one skill.) She also recently co-translated Korean subtitles for the Canadian comedy film Nirvana the Band with her father.
RIIZE's II arrives June 15.
