Tiger JK is planning to make his move over to the U.S. music industry. According to DrunkenCamp.com, he said:

“I had a dream when I started working with music, so I was always satisfied with what little I had… But through twitter, I realized that many people (the U.S.) show interest in me and YoonMirae.”

My thoughts: If Tiger JK decides to seriously pursue a U.S. music career I believe he will succeed. Why? Because he’s mad talented, a heck of a rapper, knows English and the big kicker – the African-American hip hop community will embrace and love him!
