Early life

[edit]

Kim Jung-gu was born on March 6, 1990 (February 10, 1990 by the lunar calendar).[5] He liked Radiohead when he was young, so he felt happy when he saved money and bought a Radiohead T-shirt. Later, he wanted to be always happy no matter what music he did, so he shortened "Radiohead T-shirt" into "R.Tee" and began to use it as his stage name. He became interested in electronica after watching Deadmau5 perform.[6] He studied Korean painting in college.[7]

Career

[edit]

In 2014, R.Tee released his debut single "We Got the World". In 2015, he appeared on the DJ competition TV show Headliner.[8] He signed to Dee Company, an entertainment agency founded by Yoon Do-hyun.[9] In 2019, he released the single "What Are You Waiting For" with Anda, which received critical acclaim.[10] In 2022, he appeared on Show Me the Money 11 as judge and producer.[11]
