Teddy and Kush, two star music producers from the nation’s top management company, YG Entertainment, are launching their own label.
YG CEO Yang Hyun-seok has been encouraging them to break from the company and develop better skills as music producers, according to a media report. Yang will plan and direct the label’s launch.
The two have produced many K-pop hits, including girl band 2NE1’s “Lollipop” and “I Don’t Care,” and boy band Big Bang’s project album, “Made.”
Teddy, who debuted with YG’s hip-hop band 1TYM in 1998, has been working with the company since. With the band’s last album, released in 2005, he began his career as a music producer.
Kush debuted with reggae-based duo Stony Skunk in 2003 and began working as a producer for YG in 2010.
