Vocal duo Peak & Pitch is finally making a surprise comeback to the music scene amid a shower of shout-outs from global top stars.
Peak & Pitch (Lee Eun-seong, Jeong Sa-gang) will release the mini album "Malhaji" at 6 p.m. on the 26th on various music sites and begin full-scale activities. This is their first new release in about five years since the 2021 release "Iko Iko (아이코 아이코)."
The new mini album "Malhaji" is an album that records the universal emotions everyone encounters every day in the most honest and straightforward way. Rather than presenting grand concepts or motifs, it is filled solely with the sincere hearts and unadorned harmonies of two people who love music. This album includes a total of seven tracks, led by the double title tracks "Malhaji" and "Funky Like Me (펑키 라이크 미)," as well as "Your My Love (Afro Beat)", "You and I", "Excitement", "Sunshine Lover", and "Are you okay," allowing listeners to fully enjoy Peak & Pitch's deep musical colors.
Peak & Pitch has long gained early word-of-mouth overseas through stylish cover content that crosses genres, earning the overwhelming moniker "Korea's Bruno Mars" among global fans.
In particular, the global artists' shout-out relay toward them has captured attention. Nigeria's "legendary duo" P-Square followed Peak & Pitch's official SNS account directly and shared cover videos, receiving the spotlight from local media.
In addition, 2Baba, a master of Afrobeats, Norwegian pop star Peder Elias, who is also much loved domestically, Swiss singer-songwriter Nickless, and Papua New Guinea–born artist Justin Wellington praised Peak & Pitch's unique vocals and introduced them one after another on their SNS, generating buzz.
This explosive online buzz also led to offline foreign media love calls. The host of News Central TV's flagship program "Take 3" in Nigeria personally reached out to Peak & Pitch with a love call. Their unusual move, which captivated local broadcasters across borders, made their solid influence in the global market palpable.<
