We asked Tukutz why he dissed our podcast: FULL ENGLISH INTERVIEW | Hey Tablo Ep. 15

The podcast episode features an all-English interview with Justin, also known as DJ Tukutz from the Korean hip-hop group Epik High. The hosts engage in lighthearted teasing about his outfit and glasses before delving into his background. Justin describes a lonely, complaining childhood and explains that he was inspired to pursue DJing at age 18 after seeing a DJ on the American military TV channel AFKN, believing it was a lucrative career. He later turned to YouTube about three years ago, recognizing its money-making potential. The middle segment consists of a "Top 5" game where Justin lists his favorite movies (predominantly starring Tom Hanks), books he has barely read, classic rappers like Biggie and Eminem, and K-pop groups, omitting BTS. He also admits to poor silver investments. The discussion shifts to music production, with Justin naming his top beats for Epik High, including "Born Hater," while the hosts humorously accuse him of falsely claiming credit for their beats. The interview mixes personal history, comedic rivalry, and insights into his career motivations.

You always get mad when Mithra and I like make jokes about you only caring about money and you being money hungry and being like very he's a joke. Don't say that in Korean. Hey. This is an all-English podcast. Okay. But you always say things that perpetuate that stereotype. So you're not doing anything to help your case. You hate when we say you love money. But you always say you love money. So people think you love money. And then you get mad that people think you love money because we say you love money. But it's you that you are the reason people think that you love money. When I say about the money, it's my opinion. And you say to me, you like money, it's your opinion. I hate it. So what you're saying is narrow number. What you're saying is I can say something that is word for word exactly the same as what you said. But if I say it, you hate it. So you hate me basically.

If it was myth, he'd be like, (laughing) - pasta, - food, tacos, - 밥, pizza, - 한식. - Okay. So, these questions are from our team and some of the younger staff want to know. They say that you seem very confident and they want to know for people that want to be confident how to become as confident as DJ2 cuts. - I can otherwise, if you don't have a confident, but already have a fully confident acting right, if you act like you. - Yeah, if you act right. And, Naturally, you have confidence. Oh, let me teach you a phrase. Fake it till you make it. You make it. Acting making. Baking. Okay, okay. Acting making. Baking. Yes. Some say fake it till you make it. Too cut says acting making, baking. It's good. I like it. Okay, that was great. You can't speak Korean. Your Korean is just as bad as your English. Younggeugo. Alright, here's another question. This is from our team. They were very curious. How's your silver investment going? Oh, fucked. Global finance market is so weird now. How bad is it? Like, are you like, is it really bad? It's okay, buddy. Fake it. Make it. Fake it. You can do it, buddy. I'm sure there's a lot of listeners out there right now that have also bought gold or silver at the top. So, you can't just give people financial advice and tell them to buy so you can sell to them. He's trying to make you buy silver so he can sell to you. Do not buy silver. Do not. None of this is financial advice. None of us are qualified to give financial advice. We're not financial advisors. Any investment you make is on you. Alright, back to icebreakers top 5s. Top 5, DJ2 cuts best beats. Best beats? And top 5, in your opinion, tableau's best beats. Best begin with DJ2 cuts top 5 beats. Insol. Number 5. Insol. Insol from the sleepless album. That was the first album that we made after we went independent again. So it was a very meaningful album. And it was the first real track, right? There's an intro and then it goes to Insol. And 2 cuts made that beat. Okay, number 5, Insol. Number 4 is, people scared me. I'm the most scared of them. People scared me. Yeah. The first song on, we've done something wonderful. Yes. Yes. Which was a great, great, great track. Of course, both of these songs that he mentioned were highly elevated by the fact that I'm rapping on them. I also made the hooks. So, you know, I mean, I'm just saying. Number 3 is, Anko. Anko. The first song on the shoebox. Yes. Shade sound. Okay, number 2. Born Hater. Oh, Born Hater. No doubt. Born Hater. No doubt. It was your best track. We almost erased that song because 2 cuts for some reason thought that, you know, the song, like that the beat was whack. And he had it in his trash can, like on his desktop. And I went through his trash and I dug it out, like digging gold out of the earth or silver in your case. I revived it. He's riding. Of course, I was the one who told him to erase it at first. I don't remember, but apparently I might have been drunk. He played it for me and I said it's whack. Delete that shit. And I guess he deleted it. And then, like a week later, he played it again. And I was like, this is dope. Why did you delete this? You fucking told me to delete it. Best beat of your life, I think. What could be number one? What could be better than Born Hater? Oh. Number one. Wait a minute. Give me a second. I can't believe this guy is RDJ. Like he probably, he probably doesn't even remember any of our songs. Here comes the regrets. Here comes the regrets is number one. Funny story about this. The song was first picked up by Kanye. Kanye wanted to use it on his life of Pablo album. So he took the beat and two cuts was like celebrating. You know, like, you know, there's a Korean phrase called Korean lesson time. Kim jikkuk ma si da? No no no. It's like when you pop champagne before you actually win the award. So it's like it's like when you're like, how about you didn't win? So he thought that Kanye was going to use it because he did, Kanye actually did take the beat and he was like, I want to use this. So two cuts like told a lot of people. He told a lot of people that this was happening and he was like ready to fucking leave at Pekai. He was like, he's like, as soon as this happens, I'm going to win a Grammy and fuck you. But the album came out and it was not on the album. And then two cuts went back to being at Pekai and working hard again. And then he was sad. So I turned it into our song and then it was great beat, great beat. Sorry for you buddy. I'm okay. Sorry. I'm actually glad that that didn't happen because I feel like if it happened and you started like working in the US and you started like making more money, you had about more silver. Also like I don't think you would have done at Pekai. You would have probably abandoned us, right? No. Yeah, you would have. No. Really? If you win the lottery, are you going to stay with Pekai? Yeah, sure. Absolutely. Why? To make us feel worthless. If you win the lottery, how much are you going to give me? Why? If I win the lottery, I'm going to give you at least, at least you and me at least 15%. Not bad. To keep you guys quiet from telling everyone. One percent more than Mr. Ajin please. I'll give you 5% more than Mr. Ajin. Thank you sir. And if you win, same, same. Okay buddy. Thank you. That brings us to top five tableau's best beats in your opinion. Chucho. Okay, number five, trace. I think it was the trace. He's so level. Nice level. A lot of people think that you made that beat. That point. Because it says scratch by DJ Tukuts. Usually you don't credit a scratch like a featuring artist, but I did it because it was Tukuts. It's like my team, right? But I made that beat completely by myself. Like Tukuts wasn't even there when I made it. And the thing is when people mistake that as Tukuts beat, he doesn't correct them. Like any song of mine that people are like, yeah, y'all, Tukuts beats are dope, right? During an interview, I'll be like, but I made that beat. He will not correct them. He'll just sit there pretending he didn't hear it. Why do you do that? I don't have my Chubil. What the fuck? What the fuck? I'm giving him something. It's a good thing. He just said. He just said. He just said, no, I didn't make that beat. He said he's not going to correct them because it works out for him anyways. Okay, number four. Best Tableau beat in Tukuts opinion. Berge Carlita? Berge Califa. Also, another beat that a lot of people think Tukuts made. I made it entirely by myself. Number three. I don't think it's him. What? Are you fucking kidding me? Yeah. Oh, I'm more party. Okay, I'm more party. Number three. Why are you looking shocked? Did you think he made it? He's incapable of making a beat like that. I'm more party. And number two. Oh, flow. Okay, I made flow. Okay. From the fourth album. And number one. Wow, he's really struggling. He's really struggling here. This fucking guy. He's going through his phone right now to see what songs we have. Over there. Over there. Oh, Aeobat. Oh, Aeobat. Oh, Aeobat, okay. I love the beat. Really? You never told me. For 15 years, he's never told me. He's never. 스페nad이 라미 아, 레이징 카우서는 아니네? 레이징 카우서 was me. See? I told you. He just literally said, That my beat was made by him. Okay drama. He literally just said it on video. - Michigan Langsight. - We made Michigan Langsight for it together.

And this, at this one time, you know how like K-pop artists or like Korean musicians like if there are rumors that like you smoke cigarettes, it's not even like a big thing, but like smoking cigarettes, like a lot of fans hate it. So our fans didn't know. But this one time, me, like the three of us were like in some alley and two cuts was smoking and I guess somebody took a picture like a paparazzi picture. And that was online. Like a lot of the younger fans were like, oh my god, so shirman, so disappointed.
