Epik High

A two MCs and one DJ South Korean hip-hop group, Epik High went largely unnoticed up the release of their debut album, Mapping the Human Soul, in 2003. But hit singles from their next two full-lengths would prove to be just what the group needed, and 2004’s High Society and 2005’s Swan Songs (featuring the track "Fly," which was used on the video game FIFA07) were big enough hits to make the members of Epik High household names in Korea. Members Tablo (Lee Sun-Woong, born July 22, 1980, aka Daniel Armand Lee), Mithra (aka Mitra Jin, born Choi Jin January 6, 1983) and DJ Tukutz (aka Street T, born Kim Jeong-Shik on November 19, 1981) released their fourth album, Remapping the Human Soul, in 2007. Its subject matter brought the band controversy, but that only helped sales, and the album scored the top slot in the charts. ~ Chris True, All Music Guide
