South Korean producer, rapper, DJ, and singer Park Hye Jin has announced plans to release her debut LP, Before I Die, in the fall via Ninja Tune. The album is entirely written, produced, and performed by Park and follows a lengthy list of high-profile collaborations with artists like Clams Casino and Take A Daytrip (“Y Don’t U”), Blood Orange (“Call Me (Freestyle)”), Nosaj Thing (“Clouds”), and Galcher Lustwerk.
In addition to the album news, Park has released the LP’s lead single, “Let’s Sing Let’s Dance,” a skittering, chilled-out dance track sung in Korean and English.
