“It’s an interesting situation where one guy in the song is nominated for a Grammy and one guy is going there to see it,” Tablo said in a recent interview with Billboard. “I think it’s fun.”

Best known for the hit song “Fly,” Epik High released its first album “Map of the Human Soul” in 2003. Since then, the group has grown to become one of the most prominent Korean groups internationally, performing at the South by Southwest festival in 2015 and Coachella in 2016.
