H1ghr Music (stylized as H1GHR MUSIC) is a global Hip Hop label founded by Jay Park and Cha Cha Malone in 2017.[1] The name symbolizes the artists' goal to keep growing and to get to the next level.[2] Label artist Avatar Darko was the one who suggested replacing the 'i' in HIGHR with a '1'.[3]

History

H1GHR MUSIC is a hip hop record label started in 2017 by Jay Park and Cha Cha Malone with the hopes of creating a more globally oriented label. Jay Park created the label to show support for up-and-coming artists from his hometown of Seattle, Washington and Korea through collaborations and to bridge the gap between Korean and American Hip Hop artists.[4][5][2] The label had its launch party on June 23, 2017, at Club Halo in Seoul, Korea.[6]

Jay Park gave out gold chains made by Ben Baller to all of the artists that he signed to the label.[7][8]

The label launched with artists already signed. Aside from the founders, these artists included DJ Yultron; Korean rappers Sik-k and pH-1; Seattle rappers Avatar Darko[9], Raz Simone, Phe Reds, Jarv Dee; and producers GroovyRoom and Woogie.[10]

Sik-k joined after participating in Show Me The Money (Season 4)[11] and parting ways with Grandline Entertainment. His first single, titled Fly, was released the same year. Raz dropped his full-length album Drive Theory after signing.[12]

Later on in 2017, H1GHR signed producer Thurxday[13] (who was later resigned in 2019 under the new name Mokyo) and rapper Woodie Gochild[14][15]. Woodie Gochild was signed after participating in Show Me The Money (Season 6).

In 2018, H1GHR signed rapper HAON and singer Ted Park.[16] HAON was signed after winning the rap survival show High School Rapper (Season 2)[17][18] The same year he released his first EP, Travel: NOAH.[19] Ted Park also released his first EP, Plugged In.[20]

Singer Golden, formerly G.Soul, also announced he had joined H1GHR MUSIC after 17 years under JYP Entertainment.[21][22][23]

In 2019, H1GHR signed the rapper Big Naughty.[24][25][26] after the completion of Show Me The Money (Season 8).

In late 2019, Jarv Dee parted ways with H1GHR MUSIC.[27]

In 2020, Jay Park reported H1GHR is in talks to sign a female artist.[28]

In response to the Covid-19 outbreak, H1GHR MUSIC, along with several other companies, held a food drive and donated $10,000 in relief funds.[29]
