Korean DJ/producer DJ POOL rallies the core members of KC — one of Korea’s most formidable hip-hop collectives — for “LOVA,” a Phonk-driven single that channels the primal pulse of Brazil’s underground scene into a reckless, trilingual love narrative. With GEMINI’s sultry vocals and Coogie’s razor-sharp bars weaving between Korean, English, and Spanish, the track is a sensory collision of gritty bass, raw emotion, and genre-defying ambition.

About Song
“LOVA” drops listeners straight into the dark, pulsating heart of Brazilian underground Phonk — distorted basslines, menacing cowbells, and an energy that feels both dangerous and irresistible. Over this raw sonic foundation, GEMINI delivers haunting melodic vocals that pull you into the chaos of wayward love, while Coogie’s sharp-edged verses cut through with lyrical precision. The track moves fluidly between Korean, English, and Spanish, reflecting the borderless nature of both love and music.
The B-side, “DJ POOL, DON’T STOP VIP,” takes the energy even further — a reimagined VIP version of the KC2.5 track featuring Sik-K, HAON, and NOWIMYOUNG. Together, the two tracks form a statement piece: this is what happens when Korea’s most exciting hip-hop talents converge over a sound that refuses to be boxed in. Produced alongside ROM and BAAWLA, the single is a testament to DJ POOL’s vision of “purely good times” — even when the subject matter is anything but simple.
Release Date: March 7, 2026
