Rain

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BPop

Rain is a Contemporary R&B and Pop act. Their sound grew out of J.Y. Park, Kang Daniel, Gray Matter, Trio and Untouchables. Those roots explain a lot about how Rain arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as 2PM, SE7EN, TEEN TOP, Block B and GD&TOP, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Byun Baek-hyun, Ateez, Ravi, Jimin and MBLAQ, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 33 connections around Rain, reaching back through J.Y. Park and forward to Byun Baek-hyun.
