Rapper and record producer Kang Dong-chul ― best known by his stage name Brave Brothers ― has announced that he will be releasing a special collaborative album in commemoration of his 10th anniversary of his debut.

As one of the country’s most famed producers, Brave Brothers has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry and is behind some of K-pop’s biggest hits including Lexy’s “Wipe My Tears And Put On Make Up;” Big Bang’s “Last Farwell;” Son Dam-bi’s “Crazy” and “Saturday Night;” as well as a laundry list of tracks that help put sexy girl group Sistar on the map with chart topping singles such as “So Cool” and “Alone.”

For the producer’s latest project, Brave Brothers will be collaborating with 10 different artists and releasing 10 singles, one every month. On Monday he released the first joint single of his anniversary album series, “Even After I Got Hurt” with ballad singer Lim Chang-jung, featuring Maboos of ElectroBoyz.

Brave Brothers was a producer for entertainment powerhouse YG Entertainment for four years before starting his own label “Brave Entertainment” in 2008 with artists ElectroBoyz, BIGSTAR and BraveGirls. The artist will continue to release a new single every month through out the year.
