Korean hip-hop icon Loco is back with another effortlessly cool single, “Matcha High,” featuring Argentine rap queen TAICHU and Japanese trap talent Young Coco. This genre-blending track is a masterclass in laid-back confidence, fusing chill beats with polished bars in a multilingual collaboration that’s as refreshing as its name suggests.
“Matcha High” floats on a dreamy lo-fi production base, layered with trap textures and a sun-soaked rhythm that invites listeners into a euphoric haze. Loco’s smooth delivery—both charismatic and controlled—sets the tone with lyrics that glide like steam off a hot cup of matcha. TAICHU’s fiery verses inject international flavor, while Young Coco brings a Tokyo flair with his signature melodic style. Together, the trio craft a track that transcends borders and language, thriving on pure vibe.
Loco has always stood out in the Korean rap scene for his versatility and understated cool, and “Matcha High” is another example of his ability to evolve without losing his essence. This isn’t just a flex anthem or a chilled-out filler—it’s a globally-minded anthem designed for road trips, rooftop parties, and late-night musings. The cross-cultural synergy feels authentic, not forced, with each artist staying true to their core sound.
For fans of artists like Dean, Joji, or Rich Brian, this track offers that same moody charisma but with a sunnier twist. It’s further proof that Asian hip-hop is not only dominating domestic charts but also reshaping the global soundscape. Loco, TAICHU, and Young Coco remind us that rap doesn’t always need to scream—it can chill, seduce, and still hit just as hard.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or just discovering these artists, “Matcha High” is a playlist essential. Stream the track now, share it with your crew, and keep your ears on Loco as he continues to redefine international hip-hop cool.
