Don't you love when gaming and music collaborates in a way that's not forced?
Because I do.
Obviously with the name, notorious Massifax.
When music and gaming comes together, it's always a beautiful thing.
But in this instance, we have one of the more prominent genres currently collaborating with League of Legends,
which is one of the more prominent franchises and gaming of all time.
all-time League of Legends is a one-of-one so anyways more specifically K-pop group New
Jeans is going to sing for the League of Legends and a new track titled gods so
technically is a new jeans collaboration with Riot Games but they will be
performing the the World's 2023 anthem title gods
So all five members are performing.
It's not like some BTS.
We're like doing the solo thing.
We have everybody in collaborative efforts, of course.
If you don't know, there's five members of new genes.
There's Danielle, Heron, hopefully that pronunciations are definitely going to get butchered.
So anyways, Danielle, Heron, Hani, and Minji.
I butcher some of those names, but hey, try my best.
So anyways, the composition.
is by Sebastian Najan.
No, Sebastian Nage and, or Najian, but I don't know, I ain't go, I'm not saying that.
And then Alex Siver of Mako.
All right.
The anthem will be played throughout the League of Legends World Championship.
It will be scheduled from October 10th to November 19th and the venues around South Korea.
Full circle moment, because that's why I started out with.
Love when music and gaming
collaborates and it actually makes sense and it's not forced.
Because of course, League of Legends being in South Korea
from October 10th to November 19th,
you get to the point where a lot of music
could be played throughout that event.
But why not get one of the more prominent genres
that's literally blew up and
sprouted from South Korea in K-pop, right?
So anyways, gods will also be released on October 4th
and Riot Games traditionally partners with local artists of the world's anthem.
So of course this makes sense going back to my original point.
And the music video will feature a veteran carried deaf
and tells his story from Discovering League in high school to becoming
a world champion. Interesting.
The League of Legends, World Champions,
is known as the Pinnacle.
So it's like the Super Bowl
for League of Legends players
and will crown a new champion in November.
So yeah, that's basically it.
Replays will be available for those
who can't watch live, that's important to say.
And it will be
taking place in South Korea. So if you want
to catch a flight, hey,
you may have to catch a flight
because I ain't going to lie. If you're going to watch it,
through streaming services or whatever,
the times when you watch them
may be a little inconvenient for people
in the Western Hemisphere.
Let's just say that,
because that's probably the wrong word.
But I used it anyway, so there you have it.
So click my link to your in my bio.
Let me know one of my social medias.
Will you think about this League of Legends
and New Jeans collab?
And also, will you be watching
the League of Legends World Championship
when it eventually starts
October 10th all the way through November 19th.
