Yoon Mirae, "Queen Of South Korean Hip Hop" According To MTV iggy
Yet another Korean artist has been elevated to a global attention-worthy status.

The music blog site MTV iggy for the US's MTV network recently posted a ranking of the 12 best new female emcees dominating mics everywhere. Here, Korea's very own Yoon Mi-rae was included, being dubbed the Queen of South Korean Hip Hop.

The list included a mini write-up of the star noting her marriage to the "King of hip hop" Tiger JK, having been born in the US with a soulful voice, and her undeniable rapping skills.

She shared the honor with the likes of Mexico's indie hip hop star Nina Dioz, Muthoni The Drummer Queen originally from Kenya, Arabyrd from Malaysia, Chile's Ana Tijoux, and England's Lioness. These are all big names in terms of female hip hop stars in their respective countries.

Yoon's agency, Jungle Entertainment stated to a news source in Korea, "Yoon Mirae's promotions abroad are expected to really pick up with a global project song set to be released via iTunes sometime in the middle of this month."
