Hip-hop / R&B girl group XG returns with their highly anticipated second mini-album AWE on November 8. You can pre-order the album HERE.
Coming out about a year after their previous release, AWE reflects XG’s continued effort to connect with the world through their music. The second mini-album captures the psychological experience of encountering something new, blending fear and curiosity, and aims to offer listeners a unique experience with XG’s music in their daily lives.
The album will be available in several versions: the XG version which is a thematic package that represents XG’s world, the ALPHAZ version which is a special package for the XG OFFICIAL FANCLUB “ALPHAZ,” the Solo version which contains individual member designs, and the Regular version which symbolizes the group’s overall identity. In addition, there will also be a popular VINYL version from their previous release. Pre-orders start today at the XG OFFICIAL US SHOP and other US retailers.

The first pre-release track, “SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT” (released July 26), has already achieved significant success. It topped the Billboard “Global Japan Songs Chart” for two consecutive weeks and has been consistently featured on the Hot 100 chart for five weeks. The track also ranked on YouTube’s trending charts in 27 countries and regions, reached number one on the iTunes “Dance Song Chart” in 14 countries, and earned XG their first number one on Japan’s J-WAVE “TOKIO HOT100,” dominating both domestic and international charts.
Recently, XG completed their extensive Asian leg of the world tour, The First HOWL, which spanned about three months. The tour, featuring sold-out shows in cities including Osaka, Yokohama, Seoul, Taipei, Singapore, Manila, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Chengdu, and Beijing, attracted a total of approximately 120,000 fans. Starting next month, XG will head out on their North American leg of their tour which will hit major cities such as Los Angeles and New York.
