He is very well known in Korea as a music producer and member of hip hop group 'Epik High', and he ranked atop the US Music chart (category of hip hop and rap on the iTunes chart) for the first time as a Korean artist". Tablo had gone through troubles last year because of allegations of forging his academic records, so his upcoming lecture at Stanford has drawn attention.
