The much-anticipated first full album [DRIP], released today at 1 PM, embodies BABYMONSTER’s overflowing charm, true to its title. The meticulously crafted nine tracks showcase a more colorful palette of their musical identity.

An audacious pre-release of the first verse of a track signifies YG’s extraordinary confidence in the album’s overall quality. This comeback has transformed into a mega project under YG’s full support, marked by a rare quick release of a debut full album in the K-pop market, the production of several music videos, and pre-prepared follow-up stage performances sparking a brilliant domestic and international surge.

# Double the Hip-Hop Charms..Double Title Tracks ‘DRIP’, ‘CLIK CLAK’

A strategic move with double title tracks, the album’s namesake song ‘DRIP’ melds BABYMONSTER’s confident attitude with YG’s signature hip-hop vibe into an EDM-based dance track. G-DRAGON’s involvement in composition has also sparked interest. Its addictive hook, dynamic beats, and intense bass sounds deliver a thrilling sensation.

The other title track ‘CLIK CLAK,’ released alongside its music video, perfectly embodies original hip-hop, leaving a strong impression as a prepared newcomer with YG DNA. All members’ venture into rap showcases their distinct vocal tones and flows, highlighting their all-rounder talents.

The performances to be unveiled post-comeback are also highly anticipated. ‘DRIP’ features powerful choreography aligned with the beat, intuitive hand movements reflecting the song title, and spectacular group dances. ‘CLIK CLAK’ captivates continuously with witty point gestures interpreting the lyrics. Each track, with its unique charm, is set to capture everyone’s heart.

# Expanding Music Spectrum..A Diverse Genre of 9 Tracks

Beyond the commanding live stage performances, BABYMONSTER is blooming musically with genre expansions. Including the two double title tracks, tracks like ‘Love, Maybe’ with beautiful vocals over guitar, ‘Really Like You’ with its prominent 90s hip-hop vibe, and ‘BILLIONAIRE’ with its heavy 808 bass and R&B sound reviving Y2K vibes are lined up.

The upbeat ‘Love In My Heart,’ ‘Woke Up In Tokyo (RUKA & ASA)’ showcasing the hip-hop vibe of Japanese members, the pre-released ‘FOREVER’, and the fan-favorite encore song ‘BATTER UP (Remix) – Bonus Track’ further elevate BABYMONSTER’s musical world.
