Editor's note

Kanto, a Korean pop and R&B trio

A band built around Kang Min-kyu's voice, with songs like 'Call Me Noona' and 'FAVORITE'.

For a good sense of their sound, try 'Call Me Noona' or 'FAVORITE'. Both have that signature mix and feature other artists they've worked with.

Kanto's music sticks because of that clear pop-R&B blend and Min-kyu's vocal presence. You hear it right away in 'Call Me Noona (feat. Kang Min Hee)', a track that feels both smooth and direct. They've kept at it through lineup shifts and the occasional outside noise, which says something.

They started in 2012 and put out their debut single 'Lonely' in 2015. Albums like 'Only You', 'Inside', and 'Prologue' followed over the next several years. The 2017 plagiarism allegations around Min-kyu didn't stop the band from recording.
