The group BABYMONSTER made a strong impression on the global market as soon as they made their comeback.
BABYMONSTER released their third mini album CHOOM on Apr. 4 and made their comeback. They unleashed an intense image that encompassed music and performance, leaving a strong mark on music fans around the world.
CHOOM is an album that contains a variety of tracks spanning hip-hop, dance and R&B. BABYMONSTER left a strong presence with the title track CHOOM, which maximizes the essence of performance. This song is a hip-hop dance track with an addictive synth riff and a heavy bass, and the chorus section where the beat shifts leaves a strong impact.
BABYMONSTER members introduced CHOOM themselves, saying, "The most attractive aspect is the energetic yet addictive sound. Up until now we have shown hip-hop-based music that flaunts our intense charisma, but this time it is literally a song that everyone can dance to together. Personally, I think the chorus section that starts with a sudden beat change is the killing part. I hope you listen to it with focus."
According to YG Entertainment, BABYMONSTER is breaking records as soon as they made their comeback. The third mini album CHOOM recorded first-day sales of 387,871 copies on Hanteo Chart, 1.5 times the figure for We Go Up. This is their personal best.
In addition, the CHOOM music video went straight to No. 1 on YouTube worldwide trending immediately after its release, surpassing 14 million views. It also became the most-viewed video within 24 hours.
The live broadcast BABYMONSTER held on the day of their comeback also recorded 1.57 million views within an hour, proving their presence as a YouTube queen.
They are also recording meaningful results on digital charts. CHOOM topped the iTunes album charts in 15 regions and reached No. 1 on the iTunes worldwide album chart. With achievements in album charts, YouTube and digital music, BABYMONSTER is expanding their presence in the global market.
