In one case, they are dancing around in the iconic box while lights are being shone on them like every other boy band. Largely a performance MV, we get to see them fooling around on different sets. IKON show off their hip-hop style in " Rhythm Ta." So was it worth the wait? I'll leave that up to the fans. and Bobby obviously enjoy playing with words, and I hope to hear more in the future. There's even some songwriting talent there, as B.I. It's got kind of a chill vibe it's definitely not in your face rap or hip hop, and it's not far off to compare them to WINNER.
They strike a good balance between singing and rapping, and each boy has his own part playing to his own strengths. I have to say I like this, and it was a lot better than their pre-release track. They become very candid and humble here, saying that they're broke losers, but they will change and make the girl proud. The title is an acronym for "Make U Proud," which the lyrics back up. The tune alternates between piping synths and washes while the boys take turns rapping and singing. The last tune, " M.U.P.," is an anthem-like song. The lyrics are clever: the girl is aboard an airplane, and the boys are begging the pilot to either let them on or kick her off so they can talk. I have respect for artists that can do this, as often a rap can ruin a good song, and a song can ruin a good rap. Bobby and Junhoe handle the rapping here, which works really well everything is on point and the melody is intact. " Airplane" is a slower song, sort of a combination of sung verses interspersed with raps.
The title is no mystery: as of today, the boys are suddenly attracted to a girl that they used to view as a friend. It's a little slow for a dance tune, though. I like some of the nasally intonations - they remind me of G-Dragon. They have some funky guitars going in the background, which I dig. The fourth track, " Today," is a pretty catchy pop tune. It's not bad, and gets better and better the more I hear it. My thoughts on " My Type" have already been aired in my previous iKON review. Besides that, the song is a heckuva lot of fun, from the piping synths to the rapping and the hook: "Rheethum Ta." To me, it's a generic diss, a boasting song, nothing more insidious. Member Bobby dismissed the claims, putting a more positive spin on things. " Rhythm Ta" is the title song, and apparently a controversial one, as netizens are claiming the lyrics are dissing their idols. It's a strong opening, and it gives me hope for the rest of the album. The lyrics are nothing amazing, basically saying they miss her and they're lonely even though they tried to be strong about the breakup. It's also really catchy, and I found myself singing along. They're backed by sassy saxes (probably synth, but it still oozes cool). The EP launches into " Welcome Back," a song that has an R&B feel to it. and Bobby wrote the twin title tracks " Rhythm Ta" and " Airplane." They blew up the charts with their warm-up single, " My Type," and now they officially debut with their half-album, ' Welcome Back.' This EP contains five new tunes, as well as " My Type." Members B.I. With a fanbase larger than quite a few established acts, this debut is eagerly anticipated.
