[Instiz] How B.I and Mino got to participate in Epik High's Born Hater


Source: Epik High's Shoebox Commentary CD 

TUKUTZ: A lot of people helped us with this song.
TABLO: Yes.  Kong, VJ, Bobby...
TUKUTZ: That felt like Season 1 up until Bobby.
TABLO: What do you mean?
TUKUTZ: This song was originally... that...
TABLO: Ah, that... yes the line-up was pretty much...
TUKUTZ: Yeah.  A lot more people were added into the Season 2 line-up but B.I...
TABLO: The reason why we added B.I was... I was busy composing this song as well as the other songs for our album and I got worn out after working on the other songs' melodies and hooks.  That's why... I couldn't finish it myself.  I couldn't make a hook that I was satisfied with... I thought maybe it'd be better if we asked someone else to and then Tukutz...
TUKUTZ: Yes.  I suggested we call the young bloods in.  
TABLO: B.I
TUKUTZ: So we called B.I over and he finished it very swift, easy, and left.

TABLO: Yeah.  As I watched him, seriously... it reminded me of when I worked with GD in the past. Both of them do their work as easily as they breathe while I have to squeeze the song out of myself.  I was very envious of their talent and when I watched B.I... I thought... ah... he's scary.  Seriously, he's very talented.  That's what I thought.
TUKUTZ:  Yeah, I remember now.  B.I and Bobby came to record here but after that they didn't go home right away.
TABLO: Bobby was just...
TUKUTZ: He left after playing games all night
TABLO: And ordered and ate chicken
TUKUTZ: Yep.
TABLO: Yup.
TUKUTZ: B.I too
TABLO: B.I too, yeah
TUKUTZ: I said to him "Why aren't you leaving?" and he just looked like he didn't want to leave
TABLO: He said that it was fun here
TUKUTZ: Yeah ㅋㅋㅋ
TABLO: Yeah I guess they really enjoyed playing around here with us
TUKUTZ: That's right since it feels comfortable here

MITHRA: Also, we can't leave out Song Mino
TABLO, TUKUTZ: Ah... Mino. Yes.
MITHRA: Now that he's at the company...
TABLO: His lyrics are very strong.
MITHRA: Yes.  With the news that our rapper dongsaengs like B.I and Bobby were participating in the song... Mino came to me and said "Ah oh, what about me hyung?  What about me?"  He definitely gave us his intention of participating 

TABLO: He's from Winner but he really approached us like a loser ㅋㅋㅋ
MITHRA/TUKUTZ: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

[1] "As expected Bobby was in the original line-up.... and B.I's skill in making songs"

[2] "Chicken ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

[3] "Isn't this like that picture he uploaded of Bobby on Instagram? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"
(T/N: Tablo uploaded this on his instagram with the caption 
"Show Me The Money 3 champion?  He's just a kid that plays video games all night and asks me to buy him chicken in our recording studio.")
[4] "They really made a good choice in including the young kids for this track."

[5] "Mino, you did well! ㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

[6] "All three of them are adorable"

[7] "I can picture Song Mino following Mithra around saying 'Hyung, what about me? What about me?' ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

[8] "But it's a good thing that Mino got added into the final line-up.  His part is the most appealing for me personally."

[9] "Loser ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

[10] "Hanbin is so skilled.... and Bobby you must have been really craving chicken ㅋㅋ"

  3. Awww this story is cute.

  4. A lot of people don't like B.I hook, but I really like it. It's the only part I can attempt to say/sing in Korean lol

    ReplyDelete
  5. I sometimes joke how Mino acts like a loser even though he's from Winner but knowing YG artists saying it is like- https://31.media.tumblr.com/cde11defecc83564f566e496927cb883/tumblr_mz7l0fVn6e1sl42noo6_250.gif

  6. and it's funny (and satisfying at the same time lol) that Mino got the most attention and praises for the song. haha this cutie!

    Amazing kids. So talented, so passionate, and do damn young. I wish ALL of them the very best. As a fan, I am excited about their future.

  8. TABLO: He's from Winner but he really approached us like a loser ㅋㅋㅋ

    LMAO MINO

    ReplyDelete
  9. I love what Tablo and Tukutz said about B.I's skills as a composer. He really has the trust of several YG producers and as a fan, I'm really so proud of him.

    Bobby and B.I must really feel so much pressure when working with their team during Mix and Match that a little time away from them feels like luxury. You can't blame them. That show puts so much burden on them.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Lol they are just taking advantage of the situation to play truant. Ahh it must be nice playing games and relaxing amidst m&m. I can imagine bobby's hamster face looking back at tukutz making him question himself how can he ask such a cruel question! XD
    That's totally mino style rofl

    ReplyDelete
  11. i agree! i'm so glad they added Mino in. his part is my favorite along with Beenzino's.

    ReplyDelete
  12. i didnt like it at first as well. but it grew on me.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I love how mino ended up receiving the most praise and recognition lol get that attention mino you deserve it !!!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. LOL mino!! like a baby.. and mino get more attention..

    ReplyDelete
  15. YAAAAAAS GET THAT PRAISE!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Mino shouldn't even have had to ask or beg to be a part of this.

    ReplyDelete
  17. They chose Bobby probably b/c he had recently won SMTM3. They explained how B.I. got added but while I'm super happy Mino asked and got put on please don't act like EPIK HIGH has to feature Mino just b/c he is apart of YG. Its their album they can choose who they want for it. This wasn't a purposeful YG project. It would be equivalent to Tablo being featured on WINNERs next album.

    ReplyDelete
  18. ... All hell is gonna break loose if it was b.i asking for the part don't even mention begging for it.
    I feel for the dude. Why is he so oppressed like he have no right. Thank god he's talented

    ReplyDelete
  19. "All three of them are adorable." Sums it all!!! Let's not fight~

    ReplyDelete
  20. LOL mino begging! i can really picture how cute and fluffy mino asking them... but honestly it makes my heart hurt reading it, i wanna hug him... Mino yah you did well!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yah he should be invited. He's the best in the mv and probably in yg tbvh talents + looks ♡♡♡

    ReplyDelete
  22. MINO ya. You did it!!! Don't worry, publics are not blind and deaf. I'm happy for you. You works hard. Let's walk alongside together for a long time or even forever.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Thats a given! Lol everyone is bowing to Godmino 's lyrics and voice

    ReplyDelete
  24. They don't like cuz they hate him. I saw non-kpop fans MV reaction 'born hater' and they said they love Hanbin's part the most

    ReplyDelete
  25. TABLO: The reason why we added B.I was... I was busy composing this song as well as the other songs for our album and I got worn out after working on the other songs' melodies and hooks.

    SEE HATERS?!!!! :p

    ReplyDelete
  26. Lol!! That cry-baby...

    ReplyDelete
  27. Yes!! He's trending on korean sites the day it's released. Even his sister trended,too...
    Mino power.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Bald Mr.Worldwide23 October 2014 at 01:02

    I find most of the hooks he produced are simple, catchy and easy to sing along. His song 'Be I' has the best hook, like everyone who listen to the song for the first time is able to catch the melody and sing along with him.

    ReplyDelete
  29. He could've just make the hook then. Why feat in it. His name is in winner and epik High's album. What's next? Big bang's? He's everywhere! No thank you

    ReplyDelete
  30. MINO IS ONCE AGAIN TRENDING #1
    THE BOY HAS BEEN ON AND OFF TRENDING FOR A FEW DAYS!!!!.HES REALLY SLAYING YAAAAAS

    ReplyDelete
  31. He should've been invited not because he's a part of YG but because, objectively speaking, Mino is much better than both Bobby and B.I.

    ReplyDelete
  32. And this is why no one likes iKON fans

    ReplyDelete
  33. lol how cute! it's cute to see how much EH/BB/2NE1 members adore WINNER & iKON boys. they're adorable! MINO is from WINNER but he acts like a loser, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  34. It's so funny, he gets his little revenge on his own tho

    He was asked what names the Winner members had on his phone and apparently it's like this

    Bastard Leader
    Bastard Maknae
    Weird Hyung
    Jinwoo-Yang....

    I guess Jinwoo is the only one who doesn't bully him and stops him from eating

    ReplyDelete
  35. I dont get this, he was asked to do it... asked. Tablo and Tulutz asked him to make the hook and feature, i would understand the hate if YG told EH to feature BI but that wasn't the case.

    ReplyDelete
  36. That's really not a nice thing to say even if you are joking. Tablo has always irked me for some reason and I don't know why. I hope Mino don't read that.
    Chicken and video games? Bobby is so cute<3

    ReplyDelete
  37. Aren't you ICs tired of whining?

    ReplyDelete
  38. The loser gets to laugh this time. It's insane how Mino keeps on trending, out of the three rascals. Glad he's getting recognized.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Dafuq someone actually sent this link to tablo on twitter and said he/she is offended and disappointed. Everyone and their mother knew tablo is joking ....

    ReplyDelete
  40. ikr? so embarrasing

    ReplyDelete
  41. 'YOU' don't like iKON, just because you don't like them doesn't we feel the same way as you.

    ReplyDelete
  42. People really need to calm their fcking tits! It was a damn joke, jesus. I cant believe some fans. EH were nice enough to let the kids feature and now they're getting the backlash from the delulus, i cant with this

    ReplyDelete
  43. Oh wow Tablo read this blog post... https://twitter.com/blobyblo/status/525167145416531969

    ReplyDelete
  44. IC's crossed the line this time by tweeting/linking this to Tablo saying she was disappointed in him, wtf y'all can't even take a damn joke. STOP MAKING A BIG DEAL OUT OF EVERYTHING.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Inner Circles seems like they're so damn pressed all the time. They take everything related to Winner seriously, worst fandom in the making. KEEP IT UP!

    ReplyDelete
  46. WINNER fans are really VIP 2.0. I even wonder if they are the same fandom; both are very sensitive. The only good thing is that they are good at getting YG's attention.

    ReplyDelete
  47. lol what. EH has no obligation to include every rapper in the company in their songs just bc they invited others. What kind of shitty entitlement is this lmao.

    ReplyDelete
  48. don't talk like everyone likes Inner Circle as well

    ReplyDelete
  49. Haha everyone can see how loserish Mino's reaction is. Boy is too cute!! And glad they added Mino and Hanbin to the lineup, its more than dope!

    Really hoping for the 3 to do a subunit. Mino, Hanbin and Bobby. They'll totally kill the charts, I tell you. & fans will shut up cause all three are gg go be awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  50. After what an Inner Circle said to Tablo, no one has a right to be all high and mighty.

    All of you are being so pressed acting like Winner doesn't get anything from YG. People think the sole reason YG is so fast paced abt iKon's debit is because they're the favorite. Have any of you stopped and thought that this was all planned. BigBang hasn't made a comeback in almost 3 years, that groups is 70% of YG's yearly income. With their enlisment fast

    ReplyDelete
  51. hahaha ok great "opinion" now get out !

    ReplyDelete
  52. him and BI, idk. but bobby is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> than any idol i ever see. even zico.

    ReplyDelete
  53. wow.winner fans has got to be the most annoying fandom ever. never seen a
    rookies fan got so whiny and arrogant at the same time.seriously the whine about EVERYTHING.
    shd be thankful that eh even gave their fave a spot in their song.

    ReplyDelete
  54. YOU TOO

    ReplyDelete
  55. It's kinda embarassing for IC fandom. Whoever person that tweeted that to Tablo clearly didn't know what joking is.

    this post meant to be fun, not meant to be misunderstood.


    That's very sweet of Tablo tho

    ReplyDelete
  56. hahaha delulu

    Your oppa is not the ass of the world.

    ZICO and MINO were famous underground rapper, they are talented. Dear, they are in another level!!

    http://media.giphy.com/media/YFGXPobtCj5oQ/giphy.gif

    ReplyDelete
  57. Lol no, I love Bobby but he can't beat Zico yet.


    In term of rapping skills, i'd put Bobby ~ Mino. But rap is more than just the ability to rap fast & hard. Mino knows much more about Rap & Hiphop than Bobby does. Mino's rap lyrics are full of wordplay & punchlines that Bobby haven't been able to catch up with yet

    ReplyDelete
  58. I think you should a story like that take with a grain oft Salt. Epik High and the most people in entertainment tell their storys in upgradet versions to make them more entertaining. I think eh aktually like him. And they mock him because they know he will not be bitter

    ReplyDelete
  59. put mino in SMTM, i doubt he can beat bobby. kid even beat vasco.

    ReplyDelete
  60. FYI.. he's/she's a YG stan or a BIGBANG fan to be specific..don't blame EVERYTHING to IC.. get your facts straight dear..😊

    ReplyDelete
  61. And who are we to judge who's better to fit in the album that they made ? It's 100% their decision, no matter who's a better rapper. Why are we guessing things that we didn't know ?

    ReplyDelete
  62. Today is Such a good day to be ruined by a person who don't have humor sense /sigh

    ReplyDelete
  63. mino had such a strong presence in the born hater mv....who would have thought that he was asking mithra to let him join in before kkkkk

    ReplyDelete
  64. Our Jinwoo is too nice to get angry at his dongsaeng

    ReplyDelete
  65. not all fans though...i mean i thought it's quite obvious that tablo was jst fooling around...

    ReplyDelete
  66. "being underground doesn't make you better than any mainstream rapper" .. yep, remember Giriboy ? he's quite famous, already has his own fans, attractive as well, but he flopped hard in SMTM .. okay, it was voted by the audience and maybe they were biased, but he didn't have grand last performance either ..
    when B.I was casted out of SMTM, didn't he make more money than Bobby and Griboy who advanced to the next round ?
    I wish these YG rappers ranking would stop soon cos arts are subjective ..

    ReplyDelete
  67. really ? like I've hardly seen any VIPs belittling and hating their own borther/sister groups and most of them argued politely on the comments sections .. even nice to other fandoms ..but no more peaceful spazzing over the articles now since ICs came whining and bragging, some are rude too ..

    ReplyDelete
  68. lmao they complain about errrthing...even came for Tablo and he had to clarify about calling Mino a loser...srsly

    ReplyDelete
  69. ICs are taking over every ikon and any article that has anything to do with winner whether directly or indirectly =_=

    ReplyDelete
  70. Why are people complaining again about Hanbin smh...EPIK HIGH themselves were the ones that ASKED him to be on it stop being so damn salty about everything the kid does. And can people stop with WINNER being put in the back burner like they have ALL the time in this world to do things they didn't get to do, they have more things to experience.

    ReplyDelete
  71. it's probably bc his voice is so high pitched compared to everyone else's that it sounds a bit weird... i didn't like it at first but it's rly catchy

    ReplyDelete
  72. I like B.I's hook too. His voice isn't good for rapping but can't deny he's a talented composer

    ReplyDelete
  73. I am sorry but that's called being biased love.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Omfg how delulu are you? SMTM is mostly based on popularity tho.

    ReplyDelete
  75. I loved B.I's part.

    ReplyDelete
  76. yea rite, a bigbang fan that got mad cuz blo joke about NON bigbang member. rollseyes.

    ReplyDelete
  77. then BI should've win. lol. and the other rapper should've been dissing bobby. but no, they ALL acknowledge him.

    ReplyDelete
  78. You can't say that since iKON fans act the same too. Since I'm a YG stans, I monitor both sides and i follow both team activities. Apparently there are bad eggs in every fandoms. To get rid of that bad eggs are quite hard jobs to do. Maybe it need a few years or even forever.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Mino is CRAZY busy with WINNER activities do it they prob didnt have the opportunity to talk and ikon are always around and live under Tablo sooo

    ReplyDelete
  80. lmao you are new to kpop? :(
    You don't know anything about VIP and its history with 2ne1 back when they debuted.

    ReplyDelete
  81. I still remember how some VIPS spread hate on 2NE1 for collab with BigBang in Lollipop + YG keeps bringing GD as 2NE1 producer

    ReplyDelete
  82. That's your opinion and while I don't disagree that Mino is a very talented rapper, that honestly has nothing to do with EH. They have spent more time with Bobby and B.I. b/c of both SMTM3 and where they live. Its entirely possible that they may not know Mino all that well to immediately think of him for a feature. I'm glad he asked and was put on though. However this isn't a YG collab. album it's Epik High's album. They didn't have GD, T.O.P., or SH feature either even though they had other featuring in their album. They had two songs with Taeyang but no other YG vocalists. They picked who they wanted for THEIR album simple as that.

    ReplyDelete
  83. came to Kpop during of BB's haru haru, is that considered newbie ? idk ..

    ReplyDelete
  84. I call myself YG stan too, cos I love all their acts .. i think i'm blessed, so far i only came across the nice ones, and friends around me are mostly ELFs or Beauties .. I know some ViPs were mad cos Winner was on BB tour, but I didn't know if they were harsh or bashing Winner or ICs ..
    I would be mad too for iKON debuts sooner than BB's cb, but what to do ? Seugri just had an accident so I will wait for a bit longer .. Hopefully GD's awful hair'd be gone by that time,

    ReplyDelete
  85. Do some fans even think about how their idols would react to things like this?? My god can you imagine Tablo discussing what those fans said to him with Mino. Mino would be beyond embarrassed.

    ReplyDelete
  86. How can someone like Tablo irk you? The dude's awesome. I'm sure he was joking but even if he wasn't he isn't required to feature anyone. I doubt he or anyone from EH will have a feature on WINNER's next album. Can't people just be happy that they did feature people.

    ReplyDelete
  87. B/c they asked him to feature in it. Are you even a EH fan? They had a ton of featuring in their album and a lot in that song in particular. Why are you annoyed with them for THEIR choices for THEIR music? Maybe you should go and listen to Beenzino's part in born hater it applies to you.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I think he can beat bobby, he has better voice, swag, and the most important he can compose better than him and I'm not a delulu like you, Koreans really appreciate Mino's composing skill! You can't understand because you aren't korean, this boy has a precious talent like a poet. (said by koreans, I'm korean so I know, and yg said that mino is like teddy).

    ReplyDelete
  89. Me too
    Mino is raw... he is playful hahah i can see him follow tablo lol
    Yes mino will be mino he is dorky and funny but always sincere

    ReplyDelete
  90. At least the loser became winner..his trending everywhere and knetz like his rap part most..

    ReplyDelete
  91. Im crying tears over bastard leader and bastard maknae.
    😂

    ReplyDelete
  92. oh wait, did you mean ikon fans? because they're ridiculous whining over this ot6 thing isn't any better.

    ReplyDelete
  93. lol. Bobby won SMTM and NO RAPPERS disagree with that even iron's himself, he got invited to illioner concert which is one of the most respected hiphop crew in korea, he got invited FIRST to featured Epik High song, every SMTM song he released got into top ten, doing better than mino's "i'm him", and he was praised by A LOT of rappers, lee hundo, San E, even Swings who is a well known arrogant ass.
    while you think mino's better, just cuz YOU think he have a better voice, swag, skills etc.
    and im the one who's biased and delu.
    LOOOOOOL. where's ur backup dear?

    ReplyDelete
  94. i dont care. funny how you think i said it cuz you think im an ikon fans, and tryna get back at me with ur false theory.

    ReplyDelete
  95. Lol, sure you forgot about EXO-Ls hating on the other IS2 contestants when Baekhyun and Chen lost. You sure forgot about VIPs hating on 2NE1. You also forgot iKON fans hating on WINNER, especially on Jinwoo. You must've forgotten BTS fans hating on WINNER because they won a music show over their oppas and then go to their videos to hate and get loads of upvotes. Everytime some idiot does something you have to call out the entire fandom. Are you that pressed about ICs?

    ReplyDelete
  96. bro you obviously don't follow Mix and Match if you're saying that. they 6 have been through so much its stupid that people want to break them apart for new members ugh

    ReplyDelete
  97. True! That's the way it should be. No need for media play. The public will respond accordingly if they like it. They're smarter now. They have access to all kinds of information. They don't like to be told whom and what to like. They want to make that decision themselves.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I'm maybe late to react but as a VIP, it's not right to bring our name to use as an excuse to correct one of your member's or someone's mistake. It's quite disrespectful since we tried to avoid any conflicts between any fandoms. We don't know in what fandom she belongs so please don't bring any fandom as an excuse. This has to stop. PS... no hates.just love..

    ReplyDelete
  99. the breakdown is actually heavily biased towards established underground rappers. You can tell by how little votes Bobby and BI started out getting in the beginning, while Giriboy was beating both of them with subpar rapping.

    ReplyDelete
  100. it's all preference, but mino can't keep up with bobby. He raps like GD and Top, and that's not a good thing.

    ReplyDelete
  101. and mino will never, in a million years be able to spit like bobby.


    Why do you think hip hop producers are falling all over themselves to recruit bobby? They see the potential, the lyrical part of it comes with experience, which mino has, but doesn't have the natural ability that bobby does.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Oookay and ppl have criticized Bobby for rapping like DMX with all of that growling that they keep making him do on all of his tracks. These boys are still young and all of them are still finding their voice/style, so...

    ReplyDelete
  103. cute Mino begging to hyungs :p

    ReplyDelete
  104. I think it's just your opinion some people think differently. All the judges in Win praised him and asked YG to send Bobby in show me the money. JYP stated in all people who rapp in Win ep 4 competition between JYP and YG that Bobby 's rap is the one he like the most. Top said he almost went crazy over Bobby's so i am not saying that you are not right but it 's just your opinion other people think differently. Mino was there too but didn't get all the praise. On The other hand YG staff seems to like Mino most since they said they had nothing to teach really and Master Wu didn't have confidence in Bobby

    ReplyDelete
  105. Oh my gosh have you forgotten that Mino was Naturally born with THAT talent? I say, you dont really know who he is.

  108. I agree! Bobby's was pretty hot too

    ReplyDelete
  109. On Win though, after their 'Officially Missing You' performance, the judges also said that out of all the rappers in Win, Mino was definitely the best.

    ReplyDelete
  110. Seriously if everyone in YG in complimenting BI, there's obviously an amazing talent in that kid but we can't see it behind it's all behind the scene (since it's composing and choreographing and leadership and all). So let's not say that YG is showing favouritism, because even if he is, he obviously has a reason to.
