Spotify Singles 'ROOTS' unites Tiger JK, Dynamicduo, HAON and 5 more for Korean hip-hop collab

Eight artists, one track built on respect

Spotify releases ROOTS, a new Spotify Singles track, on September 11. The lineup spans generations of Korean hip-hop: Lil Moshpit, The Quiett, Raf Sandou, CAMO, NOWIMYOUNG, HAON, Tiger JK, and Dynamicduo.

The track centers on a single idea: "Don't forget your roots." It's about respect for the path Korean hip-hop has walked and the culture it came from. The framing is "Respect is the New Cool," with the song aiming to express intergenerational connection from a contemporary perspective.

MV premieres live on September 12

The official music video premieres at the venue on September 12, the same night all eight participating artists take the stage together for ROOTS's first-ever live performance. Tiger JK and Lil Moshpit are newly joining the Spotify House Seoul hip-hop concert lineup for that night. The Quiett, Raf Sandou, CAMO, NOWIMYOUNG, HAON, and Dynamicduo round out the stage.

On September 11, dancer Honey J runs a ROOTS dance class at Spotify House Seoul, introducing the official challenge choreography she created.
