Hip-hop / R&B girl group XG releases their fifth single, “WOKE UP” in addition to releasing a music video to support the new song.
“WOKE UP” features an unconventional track with 808 bass and distinctive East Asian sounds, showcasing the unique rap performances of each member and a strong hip-hop identity. The music video depicts XG members dressed as wolves, breaking stereotypes and boundaries in their own ways, symbolizing the birth of a new XG and their transcendent presence. The MV’s movie-like storyline and visuals are both mystical and awe-inspiring, making it a must-see.
In addition to the release of “WOKE UP”, XG held the first concert for their first world tour, ”XG 1st World Tour ‘The First Howl’” at Osaka-Jo Hall on May 18th and 19th. The shows, which were completely sold out, included cover songs unique to the Japan shows, newly arranged versions of their tracks, songs from their “XG TAPE” rap content series, and “XG VOX” vocal content series, totaling 22 songs.
