New Year 2023: Balming Tiger
Playlist - 33 Songs
Balming Tiger are a crew of various creators who work not only in music but also across the visual arts and many other fields. Their 2022 collaboration with RM from BTS, “SEXY NUKIM”, first brought them global acclaim. But they’d already been the talk of K-pop fans who appreciated the group’s exceptional originality.
Crew leader Omega Sapien is joined by a gamut of talent, from AOMG artist sogumm — known for her distinctive vocals — to Mudd the student, who made a name for himself on TV’s Show Me the Money 10. With their ingenious ideas, Balming Tiger have continued to transcend creative boundaries and broadened the scope of K-pop.
Given all they’ve achieved, we invited the members of Balming Tiger to select the songs that speak to them the most. Check out the eclectic tracks they’ve curated, along with their special message for Apple Music: “Hi, we’re Balming Tiger, an alternative K-pop band. Throughout the course of life, we encounter songs that go on to inspire us, and sometimes even transform our minds. Those are the songs we’d like to share with you. Enjoy!”
