RM and Balming Tiger’s “Sexy Nukim” was ranked no. 1 by Genius Korea as the best collaboration of 2022! The top 15 rankings were chosen “based on the opinion of the Genius Korea community.” See what they had to say about the collaboration below.
This year’s most exciting collab was easily “SEXY NUKIM” by hip-hop crew Balming Tiger and BTS' leader RM. These artists are known for their skills and depth as rappers and songwriters, “SEXY NUKIM” managed to impress in every regard. Taking on the question of what sexy, or more specifically “Asian sexy” is, the song delivers its message of the importance of uniqueness over shallow materialism with wit and confidence. The production emphasizes that with a heavy bass line and rough and deep vocalization. While both have an intimate, even sexy, air, the soundscape also offers. The collab further carved out RM’s place on the Korean hip-hop scene while introducing Balming Tiger and its members to a broader audience. No matter from what angle you find your way to this song, you will have a deeply satisfying experience.
