[K-indie Release] Samuel Seo - New Dress Girl

[Micah Bell]

Unless you're a hipster, most of you have probably never heard of the greatness that is Samuel Seo. He's an underground rapper, singer, and producer. He is the leader of the crew, XVOI, in which he also signed Toy from SMTM 3 under. He's known for featuring on Vasco's song, 187, Don Mill's song, Shoulder Gang, and High Flies' song, C.U.I.O with Dok2, Skyzoo, and Ugly Duck. He's also known for his 2013 album, Welcome To My Zone, (which Zico kindly promoted on Twitter.) He recently released his new single, New Dress Girl and received much praise for it. 

 

Excerpt from kpopstarz below:

 

"On his latest single New Dress Girl, released Monday, R&B singer Samuel Seo of the South Korean underground hip-hop crew New Block Babyz has a sound that arguably delivers on all three fronts.

Seo's voice recalls everyone from R. Kelly and Outkast's André 3000 to Pharrell Williams or even Justin Timberlake on his funkier material. While musically there are shades of many of the biggest dance floor innovators of the last 30 years. From Prince to Pet Shop Boys from Beck to Robin Thicke this is an artist who has clearly done his homework.

 

But as any great artist must, Seo also brings quite a lot that's new to the table here. His synthesizer sounds, though still vintage are perfectly mixed and a masterfully layered bit of audio production. The result is the perfect springboard for a unique and powerful vocalist who clearly deserves to be heard.

New Dress Girl might just get you."
