This album has the member’s fingerprints all over it, with the members contributing for all tracks but “When I Was Your Man.” And it is not just limited to rap making but also compositions, something that came earlier than expected for the group under Cube Entertainment. This all kept Melodys occupied as the Btob members went to work with this comeback.
Members Min-hyuk, Hyun-sik, Chang-sub and Sung-jae also had supporting roles in Monstar. Il-hoon not only landed a regular role on Weekly Idol, he’s credited as the creator of the Gwiyomi syndrome, featured in Hyuna’s “Unripe Apple” and 2Yoon’s “Nightmare” as well as a featuring in G.Na’s “ Oops.” Min-hyuk became known for both his athletic prowess and his time on Romantic and Idol 2, Peniel became an MC for Arirang’s Pops in Seoul and Eun-kwang landed a role in the musical, Monte Cristo. While it’s been a year since their last mini-album release, the boys kept in the spotlight. And I use the term ‘energetic’ loosely for anyone who has watched these seven guys on a variety show knows how crazy things can get - Chang-sub rapping about his skin (or staplers or anything really) is as relevant to BtoB as the existence of Jung Il-soon. With “Wow,” not only did they find a sound that was their own and different from their label mates and contemporaries, but it also highlighted the general energetic members and their fun attitudes. It wasn’t until the release of “ Wow” and it’s accompanying mini-album, Press Play, did they find their stable ground. Thus, they remained a small blip on the radar with their follow-up, “ Irresistible Lips.” Aside from this, they debuted when SHINee made their long-awaited comeback with “Sherlock,” and sharing their debut date with such a force in K-pop is hard. They debuted with “ Insane” and were quickly given the nickname as the poor-man’s Beast. This time, the septet are back with a mini-album, Thriller.įor those who didn’t pay attention to them at debut, they could have easily slipped your radar. Five months after the release of “ Second Confession” which featured the cutest yet stupidly corny pick up line in recent K-pop years (“I’ll be your shoulder strap and you can be my backpack” for those who have forgotten), BtoB or Born to Beat is back.
