The label also represents rapper Beenzino. Despite its small size, Illionaire Records is considered one of the most influential hip hop record labels in South Korea due to the popularity of its artists.[1][2][3] HistoryFriends and rappers The Quiett and Dok2 formed Illionaire Records on January 1, 2011. They signed rapper Beenzino later that year. The Quiett later said in an interview with Complex that he wanted to start a small label to avoid the traditional k-pop major label system. "On major labels, the money made by the artists is first given to the company to pay the bosses, managers, and staff members. In our case, we’re the bosses," he said. The label has only one employee and none of the three rappers are bound by contracts.[2] The label experienced a surge of popularity in its first few years due to Dok2's many collaborations with Korean-American singer and rapper Jay Park.[1] Illionaire Records toured Korea in the summer of 2012.[4] On November 11, the three artists released the free track "Illionaire Gang" to coincide with their "Illionaire Day Concert."[5] In 2014, the label were the headliners for the "Asian Music Festival Summer Concert" in New York City on May 21.[6] That summer the label also released a compilation album entitled "11:11."[7] Dok2 and The Quiett represented Illionaire Records on the third season of the TV rap competition SMTM(Show Me the Money), where they were the producers of winning contestant Bobby of IKON.[8] They, being famous only under-ground, became famous to people after they appeared in the Show Me the Money. Showing the genius recording ability, Illionare Records became even more spotlighted. Ambition MusikDok2 and The Quiett formed a new label under Illionaire in September 2016. After announcing Ambition Musik, they introduced three rappers, Kim Hyo-eun, Changmo, Hash Swan, through official Ambition Musik Instagram account. For the first time, Dok2 and The Quiett didn't think to scout Changmo and Hash Swan, so fans guessed that it would be Superbee and myunDo or Microdot, but it wasn't true. After establishing Ambition Musik, new members will be joined through Ambition Musik, not Illionaire. Influence on Korean Hip HopBefore Illionaire Records came out, showing off money to people was not ethically right because of Korean culture. However, Dok2 didn't care what other people talk and think about him, so he was showing off that he's making tons of money with his rap music. Hip hop used to be a music genre that not many people like, but Illionaire Records has led the hip hop culture to the mainstream from the underground. Also people used to think that rappers are always having trouble with earning money , and it was actually right because the first generation hip hop musicians or rappers had a trouble with earning money. Illionaire showed and proved that a small label can success more than idol groups from huge kpop agencies. It also became a chance that other rappers can be young and rich. Hip Hop became a popular music in Korea and in the world. Concert Tour in the US2016

Background of Korean Hip-hop cultureTowards the end of the Korean War, Korean people became more acceptable westernized culture. [9] Especially, the biggest change was accepting Hip-hop culture. Since Korea had really conservative beliefs, it was hard to mingle with a culture that expresses freedom and criticizes society, like Hip-hop does. However, as people's thought has been changed, Hip-hop gained a lot of popularity. Dok2 is one of the pioneers of Hip-hop in Korea. ArtistsIllionaire Records
