YG Entertainment general producer Yang Hyun-suk will personally roll up his sleeves and take the lead. It's to raise the completeness of TREASURE's new album.
On the 26th, according to YG Entertainment, general producer Yang Hyun-suk participated in every track included on TREASURE's mini album 4, 'NEW WAV', which is set to be released on June 1. In particular, he provided such full support that the name (YG) was placed at the very front of the composition and arrangement credits for all tracks except one.
General producer Yang Hyun-suk recently took part directly in representative songs of his label's artists, including BABYMONSTER's '춤 (CHOOM)'. However, this is the first time he has stepped fully into the forefront to lead every track of an album like the mini album 4, 'NEW WAV'.
General producer Yang Hyun-suk previously introduced it as "personally my favorite result among TREASURE's albums" and hinted that TREASURE would begin their second act with 'NEW WAV'. As the album marks a starting point for TREASURE's new leap and change, it suggests that Yang put a great deal of effort into it.
The mini album 4, 'NEW WAV', includes four new songs in total, including the title track 'IF I', 'ZOOM ZOOM', '난리나 (NALLY-NA) (HYUNHAYO of TREASURE)', and 'DANGER'. TREASURE opens their "second act" of activities in a flashy way with their original color and a more distinct musical identity. Through the previously released teaser content, anticipation has been high as fans got a sense of the members' new musical world, imbued with YG's distinctive deep hip-hop vibe and raw, rough energy.
About the title track 'IF I', YG said, "It's a song that contains strong confidence and ambition to prove potential and move to a higher place," raising expectations.
In particular, YG said of TREASURE's mini album 4, "It is an album that expresses TREASURE's diverse sides through the hip-hop genre, and listeners will be able to confirm a more distinct musical world than ever," and added, "Please look forward to TREASURE and their new chapter, which will approach with a bolder and more intense charm."
