BABYMONSTER Flex Global-Pop Appeal With First Full-Length Album ‘DRIP’
YG Entertainment girl group BABYMONSTER sings in English, Korean and Japanese as G-Dragon, WINNER's Mino, and group members contribute in the credits.
The LP further positions the septet as a force in K-pop’s expanding international influence, blending genres and languages to create a universal pop experience. Another prominent K-pop figure, Mino of WINNER, also contributed to the album, co-writing the throwback hip-hop/pop hybrid “Really Like You.” At the same time, BABYMONSTER also showcased their own creativity as members Asa and Ruka wrote on several tracks, including the special duo song “Woke Up in Tokyo,” which weaves Japanese lyrics into the mix. With the physical release of DRIP in the U.S. coinciding with the album’s global drop, BABYMONSTER has a strong chance of making a splash on the Billboard 200 chart later this month — a feat few K-pop rookies can achieve on first try.
