Loco Drops New Single ‘SEE YOU’ After AOMG Departure

Loco has officially parted ways with AOMG, marking the end of a significant chapter in his career. In honor of his former company, the rapper has released a new single “SEE YOU”.

Loco Releases ‘SEE YOU’ After AOMG Departure

On October 3, AOMG announced his departure via their social media platforms.

“We would like to inform you that Loco’s exclusive contract with AOMG has ended,” the post read. “We sincerely thank Loco, who has made AOMG shine for a long time since 2013, and all the fans who have shown him much love and support.”

That same day, at 6 p.m. KST, Loco dropped his new single “SEE YOU” across various online music platforms, a poignant release that reflects the emotions tied to his exit.

Taking to Instagram, Loco shared his thoughts, saying, “Today marks my departure from AOMG, where I’ve spent the past 10 years.” He expressed his deep emotions regarding the single, explaining that it wasn’t just a farewell but a heartfelt reflection of his time at the label. “I’ve poured in the things I wanted to say… a simple farewell wouldn’t suffice to capture the precious time of the past ten years,” he noted. Despite aiming for a beautiful goodbye, he admitted that the song made him feel even more emotional upon hearing the final version.

Loco’s departure follows the exits of other key AOMG artists like Gray, Woo Won Jae, Lee Hi, and GooseBumps earlier in March, and Simon Dominic and CODE KUNST in April. Since then, CODE KUNST along with Gray and Woo Won Jae have established a new agency duover, which may also represent other former AOMG artists in the future.

As Loco embarks on his next chapter, fans are eager to see what’s next for the talented rapper. Best of luck to Loco in his future endeavors!

Renowned artist LOCO is making a triumphant return with his highly-anticipated 2nd full album, “WEAK,” marking a significant milestone in his musical journey. This would be the rapper’s first full-length effort in almost six years.

To build anticipation for this momentous comeback, AOMG, the label representing LOCO, has unveiled captivating image teasers across its official social media platforms. In these teasers, LOCO dons a striking appearance with his red-dyed hair, piercings, and an intriguing “WEAK” inscription engraved on his head. These unconventional visuals have piqued curiosity and excitement among fans, also hinting at the unique direction of his upcoming album.

Having solidified his position as a leading figure in the domestic hip-hop scene, LOCO has consistently delivered trendsetting music that resonates with fans. This summer, he also released his first single in over a year, titled “INEEEDYOURLOVE,” showcasing his distinct musical style through both the title track and the b-side “VOLVO.”

With LOCO’s return to the music scene this season, expectations are running high as fans eagerly await the unveiling of the tracks featured in his long-awaited full-length album, “WEAK.” As a talented and influential artist, LOCO’s music also continues to captivate audiences and shape the landscape of contemporary hip-hop in South Korea and beyond.

LOCO Opens Up About Meeting and Falling in Love With Wife

In case you missed it, LOCO is now a married man. The rapper dropped the surprise news last year confirming he is tying the knot with a civilian woman. Since then, Kwon Hyuk-woo has been enjoying married life away from the spotlight. But now, the “Can’t Sleep” rapper is opening up about his marriage and discussing how he met his lovely wife.

Back in September 2022, LOCO took to Instagram to announce that he is getting married. The news came as a surprise to his fans who were not aware that he was dating a non-celebrity. It was further confirmed that the woman is someone who lives in the same neighborhood as the rapper. They tied the knot before the end of the year.

LOCO Opens Up About Finding Romance In His Neighborhood

Since his marriage, LOCO has been staying private about his relationship with his wife. However, he decided to break the silence and gush about the woman who would change his life. In the August 19 episode of Today’s Joo Woo Jae, the rapper revealed that he met his soon-to-be wife “in a private educational institute.”

“She was very tall and cool,” he said. “At the time when I was going to college, I went around without cutting my hair or beard. It was so cool, and she admired it.”

“Everyone teased me about my hair, but she said it was pretty,” LOCO continued. “That’s how we got closer. I couldn’t overcome that wall, but we communicated really well and got along as close friends.”

The romance didn’t bloom right away as the “Late Night” rapper had to go away for military service. Still, he didn’t take chances the next time he met her.

“We just spent time on our own and got in touch with each other now and then. We got in touch with each other after a long time during my military vacation, and I met her in the old neighborhood,” LOCO said. “We said a few words to each other, and I suddenly thought, ‘I should live with her.'”

LOCO recently promoted his latest single “INEEDYOURLOVE”.
