SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT is the pre-release from XG’s second mini album. It captivates with a retro style inspired by the 90s.
The global girl group XG unveiled “SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT,” the first pre-release track from their 2nd mini album, scheduled for November 8th this year. The song is available on all streaming platforms, and the iconic music video is on the group’s YouTube channel.
“SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT” brings a retro mood with garage rhythms that highlight the unique personalities of the seven XG members, with an addictive refrain and a variety of sounds hidden in its minimalism. Produced by JAKOPS (SIMON PARK), the representative and general producer of XGALX, the track combines an up-tempo 90s-inspired beat with XG’s originality, creating music that makes everyone want to dance.
The music video is based on the concept of “XG hiding their alien instincts while living everyday lives.” It depicts the members of XG in human form suddenly discovering special abilities, leading to chaos in the city. The video highlights unknown anomalies and secrets hidden in everyday life, perfectly aligning with the title “SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT.”
The second mini-album, set to be released on November 8th, comes about a year after their previous work. It expresses XG’s attempt to connect more closely with the world through music. When a new presence emerges, people experience fear and curiosity, leading to a psychological process of “awe.” This album aims to provide a sense of “awe” and a special experience of being with XG’s music in everyday life.
XG is currently on its first world tour, “XG 1st WORLD TOUR ‘The first HOWL,'” performing in 30 countries and regions worldwide, including Asia, North America, the UK, and Europe.
Their previous work, “WOKE UP,” with its powerful rap performance and unconventional structure, topped the US YouTube trending chart and maintained the top spot on the “Global Japan Songs Excl. Japan” chart for seven consecutive weeks. XG continues to break stereotypes and take on unprecedented challenges.
With the latest release, “SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT,” we can anticipate XG’s further impact.
