NCT's Mark has taken the last step toward his first solo album.
On the 19th at 6 p.m., Mark unveiled the track '+82 Pressin' (Feat. Haechan)' from his first album 'The Firstfruit' on various music sites, along with its music video.
Since May of last year, Mark has been on a long journey toward his first solo album and will finally take his first step as a solo artist with the release of 'The Firstfruit' on April 7.
Ahead of this, Mark will pre-release the track '+82 Pressin' (Feat. Haechan)' on this day to build anticipation. Having showcased a variety of charming qualities through singles like '200' and 'Fraktsiya (Feat. Lee Young-ji)', Mark is expected to captivate global fans once again with a different vibe through this pre-release song.
Mark's new song '+82 Pressin' (Feat. Haechan)' is an attractive hip-hop track featuring a bass line that utilizes a repeatedly echoing whistle riff and VOX samples, creating a dynamic atmosphere with its marching snare and solid kick drum, combined with Mark's and Haechan's fast-paced vocals.
The lyrics utilizing South Korea's country code +82 were penned by Mark himself, expressing the free and relaxed confidence of Mark and Haechan, who are based in Seoul, in a lively and witty manner.
“Right now here in / Seoul City, mobbin' yeah / +82 Pressin', callin' me / Soul night, your Heartbeat / Can't stop / Drum drumming aw yeah / Brrum pum pum / On your heart / Rhythm Holic all day yeah / Follow me and take out your own Noise / Seoul City”
The music video released simultaneously contains the story of agents Mark and Haechan, awakening emotions and injecting colors into the gray city of Seoul, known for its indifference to love and affection. It pays homage to the film 'Sin City' with static camera movements and unique direction reminiscent of graphic novels, enhancing immersion.
With each song being released, Mark adds a different vibe, sparking anticipation for what musical colors he will showcase through his first solo album.
