Flowsik - “DAE 1” ft. Daegunz

~Zumi Underground

Turn the bass up for this one, y’all, because you can feel this one in your chest!

There’s a number of Korean and Korean-American rappers I stay up on and Flowsik is one of them.  You might have been introduced to him without realizing it from a Google/YT ad from a few years ago that featured “Eung Freestyle” with Live, Sik-K, Punchnello, and Owen Ovadoz.

First off, Flowsik’s voice is like swag level 1000.  Seriously.  I bet he just makes anything sound cool.  One of my life wishes is to be at the same Starbucks one day to hear him order because I’m sure I’ll just be like, “damn...that was the coolest mocha cappuccino order I’ve ever heard”.

I also love his flow.  The man’s got seamless transitions from one rhythmic pattern:

Been doing this since the get

I ain’t tryna go to bed

Sharpen my swords daily

These rappers I want their HEADS

Into the next:

Growin up in the East Coast from Amigos

All I heard was Chinito

In the park shooting Free Throws

Sippin OE like it’s COLD VINO

So smooth!  I also got extra respect for people who can do that in multiple languages especially on the same track like Flow does.  Unfortunately, I don’t speak Korean so for all I know the Korean lyrics could be whack, but even if they are, they sound hella good!
