At 14, Han Jae-hee turns raw lyrics into debut single 'BAMTY'

First single 'BAMTY' completed with producer Lee Si-won

14-year-old rapper Han Jae-hee has debuted through her first digital single 'BAMTY.' This debut single was a collaborative work between Han Jae-hee and producer Lee Si-won.

The song is based on a heavy drum loop and a rough texture reminiscent of 90s vintage cassette tapes. Through this track, Han Jae-hee expressed her ambition to maintain her own unique style while charging forward.

Witty lyrics and rhymes like "I opened a raw fish restaurant"

In the title track 'BAMTY,' Han Jae-hee's lyrical songwriting abilities are revealed. She included a metaphor in the lyrics stating, "I opened a raw fish restaurant after spitting raw things since age 13." She also used a double entendre rhyme, saying she "held iron (Maturity) instead of an 8t Truck."

The lyrics contain her determination to maintain her own style without yielding to the gaze of others. Tight rap, such as "I'll mix it like bibimbap flow," continues the flow of the song.

Rap containing metaphors of figures like Son Heung-min and Chagall

Han Jae-hee placed various figures such as "Son Heung-min-Hong Myung-bo," "Chopin," and "Chagall" as metaphors within her rap lyrics.

Han Jae-hee stated, "Rather than music that briefly rises like a buzzword, I will survive until the end and represent South Korea."
