One of the most incredible collaborations is coming soon, as Zico and IU have teamed up for the Block B member’s new record.

Zico’s agency KQ Entertainment said Tuesday that IU will be featured in Zico’s upcoming album slated for release at the end of July. The two musicians met nine years ago when Zico was featured in IU’s smash hit “Marshmallow.”

Having debuted as the leader and main rapper of Block B on April 2011, Zico has been recognized for his crossover skills in the Korean hip-hop scene. He appeared as a producer on the fourth season of the rap competition program “Show Me the Money” in 2015. He also has numerous hits under his belt, such as “Boys and Girls,” “I Am You, You Are Me” and “Say Yes or No.”

IU, who debuted in 2008, has released many chart-sweeping songs, including “Good Day,” “You & I” and “The Red Shoes.”
