Ready, Set, ‘BATTER UP’: Stepping into the global music scene as a Game-Changer!
BABYMONSTER is set to showcase their distinctive presence with ‘BATTER UP.’ Just like the title signifying the next batter’s call in a baseball game, the song carries a confident and assertive message that BABYMONSTER is a ‘game-changer’ that will reshape the landscape of the global music market.
‘BATTER UP’ combines a dynamic melody, catchy hook parts, and YG’s trademark hip-hop flavor. The powerful bassline and tension-building siren sound add to the impressive composition. As the song progresses towards the end, the intense arrangement, coupled with the energy of the BABYMONSTER members, delivers a thrilling sensation.
BABY and MONSTER: Taking the YG DNA to the Next Level
The group name, a combination of BABY and MONSTER, presents their identity. Despite their young age (BABY), the members possess skills akin to monsters. Being all-rounders in vocals, rap, and dance, combined with each member’s individual charm, BABYMONSTER is a complete package.
The group has already showcased an upgraded version of YG’s DNA through their debut reality show, garnering positive responses from global fans.
The reason for the attention on the ‘BATTER UP’ MV lies in capturing the facets of the six members. Successfully completing a five-day shoot, the MV captures points of choreography such as a cool swing, gazing beyond the wall at the ball flying over, overwhelming group performances, and solo scenes that maximize each member’s charm—all presented with sophisticated visuals.
#Strong fandom signals huge popularity, “They will make a new K-pop wave”
BABYMONSTER has proved their ability through various content to introduce the members, such as high-quality cover videos and “Last Evaluation” program. As such, the girl group secured a global fandom early even before their debut. Their official YouTube channel has exceeded 3.27 million subscribers and accumulated nearly 500 million views.
BABYMONSTER’s pre-debut song “DREAM”, which was released in May, reached the top of the US Billboard ‘Hot Trending Songs’ chart. Highlighting BABYMONSTER’s debut process, the UK’s media outlet NME called them “an all-rounder group” and Billboard cited them as “promising K-pop artists”. The global music market also predicts the group’s extraordinary popularity in the future, saying “They’re going to make a new wave for the K-pop genre”.
