Bilingual hip-hop unit qwert has released its second EP "sakana". This is the second in a trilogy, following the previous release "cigarro," and is a darker, more rap-oriented work. The guest artists include Sadajyo and Jeff Loik from Japan, GREGBLU from the U.S., and Playbum from Korea, creating a great chemical reaction on the tracks. Listeners would feel qwert's growth in their musicality as they show a new side of themselves in attempts to explore various genres.
