This Male Idol Topped List of Most Loved Rapper of the 21st Century

Based on a recent online survey by Star News and Gallup Korea, which gathered responses from 1,052 participants aged 19 to 69 nationwide (with a margin of error of ±3.0% at a 95% confidence level), Zico was named the “Most Loved Rapper of the 21st Century”with a voting rate of 31%.

In 2011, Zico made his debut as a member of the idol group “Block B”and quickly rose to fame as the leader of the group. He was responsible for writing, composing, and producing the majority of their songs.

Despite parting ways with his former agency in 2018, Zico’s unwavering talent continued to shine. He then founded KOZ Entertainment in the same year, taking on the role of a producer and shifting his focus from solo endeavors. In 2020, Big Hit Entertainment (now HYBE) acquired KOZ Entertainment, and in May of the following year, Zico showcased his versatility by debuting the boy group BOYNEXTDOOR.

In May, Zico proved himself as a “digital music powerhouse”by winning his first trophy for his digital single “SPOT!”on SBS’s Inkigayo, despite not making any appearances on music shows.

At present, he continues to meet with viewers every Friday on the KBS 2TV music variety show The Seasons: Zico’s Artist.

After Zico, Dynamic Duo came in second with 26% of the vote. The duo, who made their debut in 2004, has produced multiple popular tracks including “Go Back,””Guilty,””Ring My Bell,””BAAAM,”and “Attendance Check.”

Epik High secured third place with a voting rate of 22%, while Yoon Mi-rae followed closely in fourth place with 20%. Drunken Tiger claimed fifth place with 15%, and rounding out the top ten were Leessang (11%), Lee Young-ji (9%), Jessi (8%), MC Mong (7%), and BewhY (7%).
