Hip-hop pioneers Epik High helped establish кσяєα’s alternative hip-hop scene. Since their debut in 2001, members Tablo, Mithra Jin, and DJ Tukutz have been blending genres and pushing boundaries, inspiring a new generation of musicians, including BTS.
BTS has cited Epik High as an inspiration, having admired Epik High’s work since their pre-debut days. Over the years, BTS and Epik High each made their mark on music and collaborated along the way.
So, why is DJ Tukutz suddenly calling BTS’s V his rival? Today, DJ Tukutz retweeted V’s “V-cut” photos from the Louis Vuitton fashion show. “My rival since yesterday,” he wrote.
My rival since yesterday. #rival #tukutz #V https://t.co/plscHi0cRu

On September 13, DJ Tukutz guested on the talk show Radio Star, where he was asked about his “rivalry” with BIGBANG‘s G-Dragon. Apparently, G-Dragon is out and V is in!
When it comes to BTS, naming names can land somebody in hot water — and the news. The other guests playfully warned DJ Tukutz about taking that risk, but he boldly named V anyway.
Why? By namedropping V, DJ Tukutz becomes a hot topic too! (Any press is good press…right?). When Ahn Young Mi said that: “This kind of stuff is what ends up in news articles”. DJ Tukutz replied: “Let’s pick V!”
Later, on Twitter, Tablo posted a photo of Epik High’s DJ and his rival.

드디어 미쳤구나
