The next-generation virtual boy group B THE HOOD has demonstrated powerful music and video strength even before its official debut, reaching a career high.
B THE HOOD's second pre-release digital single The Baddest, released on the 31st of last month, proudly landed at No. 87 on the YouTube Music weekly chart. At the same time, the video content released on the official YouTube channel also secured No. 7 on the YouTube popular music video daily chart, achieving a remarkable result.
This achievement has drawn attention from the music industry because a virtual artist that has not officially debuted attracted an explosive fan response with only solid musical competitiveness and high-quality visual content, without a large-scale promotion.
Previously, B THE HOOD captured the short-form market with the first pre-release track Lowkey, which ranked No. 14 on the YouTube Shorts daily chart and No. 34 on the weekly chart. With The Baddest, they significantly expanded the scope of success to include the main track and video content. As global fandom interest concentrated, the official YouTube channel's subscriber count has also shown a sharp rise.
The new song The Baddest is a summer easy-listening track that blends retro drum beats, funky bass and sophisticated R&B sensibilities. It embodies the confident youth 'self-assurance' of moving to one's own rhythm without yielding to others' gazes, eliciting deep sympathy from listeners.
A representative from the agency Levvels said they were pleased that the sequentially released content and music have consecutively landed in the upper ranks of the charts, and noted that on the 21st at 6 p.m. they plan to release the final pre-release single JADED, which captures a powerful transformation that is 180 degrees different, asking for much anticipation.
Announcing the birth of a major new act with consecutive chart hits, B THE HOOD's The Baddest track and music video are available on various music sites and the official YouTube channel.<
