Just released a new song not long ago, but recently, BABYMONSTER's Clik Clak encountered an unexpected "disaster" and was banned from broadcasting on KBS. This information quickly received the attention of a large number of fans.

According to a report from IZE on November 6, BABYMONSTER's double theme song Clik Clak from their debut studio album titled Drip was determined by KBS's music review board to be ineligible for broadcasting.

According to KBS's music review policy, songs that receive ineligible ratings may be resubmitted after editing or deleting problematic parts. Only songs that are rated eligible in the review can be played on KBS programs (TV, radio,...).

"Clik Clak" violates Article 46 of the KBS Broadcast Evaluation Regulations, when the lyrics refer to specific product brands such as Ferrari, Cartier, Maybach. This means that BABYMONSTER will not be able to perform this song on KBS's weekly music program Music Bank.

However, the rest of the songs on the album "Drip" including "Drip", "Love, Maybe", "Really Like You", "BILLIONAIRE", "Love In My Heart", "Woke Up In Tokyo (Ruka & Asa)" were all approved.

BABYMONSTER is not the first group affiliated with YG Entertainment to be "whistled" by the famous broadcaster KBS, unable to pass the censorship round to broadcast.

Previously, the music products of BLACKPINK (KILL THIS LOVE), BIGBANG (Fxxt It), 2NE1 (I'm Busy), iKON (Bling Bling and B-Day), WINNER (Everyday), were all banned by KBS for different reasons, making fans no longer strange about YG's artist's inability to bypass the station's censorship. There is even a humorous opinion that it seems that being banned by KBS has become an "underground tradition" of artists under YG.

"Clik Clak" is the double title track of the album "Drip". The MV of this song, released on YouTube on October 30, has now attracted 45 million views after 1 week. Meanwhile, the MV "Drip" has exceeded 50 million views in 5 days. YG Entertainment has released a video of the choreography for both of these songs

In addition, BABYMONSTER is expected to continue promoting through music programs, radio, and other platforms. BABYMONSTER's performance in Korea is not prosperous, but the group's international performance is quite positive. The song "Drip" has entered two global Spotify and Apple Music global charts.

It is known that Drip is a track with the participation of G-Dragon, so people are extremely "enthusiastic" about this theme song. As a girl group of YG, BABYMONSTER makes people regret the rise and fall of music quality. YG lost the ability to create hits for the girl group, causing BABYMONSTER to struggle throughout the year. Drip is considered a song marking a new step for BABYMONSTER.

The dance mix is based on EDM, highlighting the unique hip-hop quality, honoring the charismatic rap ability of YG's "chicken". Still the usual message of confidence and bravery, Drip has created a catchy hook, making listeners want to dance. Ahyeon's highnote was once again chosen as the highlight, but it was reduced sufficiently, not as jarring as the previous title, Sheesh.

Drip helped BABYMONSTER get out of bad music. On platforms, netizens gave many compliments to the title this time. All the remaining tracks in the album of the same name have stable music quality, promoting the strength of the 7 little "monsters".

As for the MV, Drip was invested in filming outside. However, the image has not yet broken through, has not escaped the old and somewhat outdated girlcrush style. Previously, the concept for this comeback made fans "boo". BABYMONSTER was "stir-fried" by YG with styles from BLACKPINK and 2NE1, making the public bored. This is a minus that this entertainment empire needs to improve, if BABYMONSTER wants to continue the success of the two senior girl groups.
