Just yesterday, Gallant released the music video for “Cave Me In,” which also features Eric Nam and Tablo. In the past, many K-pop stars have collaborated with Western A-listers to produce hot new tracks.
Let’s take a look at some of the best!
Far East Movement x Marshmello ft. Chanyeol & Tinashe – “Freal Luv”
Last year, Far East Movement collaborated with various artists in their newest album, including a few from Korea.
Dean x Eric Bellinger- “I’m Not Sorry”
Dean, like Eric Nam, adds an R&B flair to K-pop music. In “I’m Not Sorry,” Dean joins forces with hip-hop artist Eric Bellinger, the grandson of Jackson 5 singer Bobby Day, and the result is amazing!
PSY x Snoop Dogg – “HANGOVER”
It is clear in the 2014 music video for “Hangover” that Snoop Dogg and PSY had a good time together on set. The music video is comical and showcases the originality and uniqueness the duo has to offer.
Wonder Girls x Akon- “Like Money”
In 2012, the girl group released a music video for “Like Money,” which featured American hip-hop star Akon.
JYJ x Kanye West x Malik Yusef – “Ayy Girl”
Taking it back to 2010, Kanye West in JYJ’s “Ayy Girl.” While the song has its own distinct K-pop style, its beat is quite similar to West’s earlier work “Flashing Lights,” which came out in 2009.
