A series of moves regarding BABYMONSTER's comeback preparations are attracting public attention. Especially at a time when BLACKPINK members are sweeping music charts, YG's "chicken" is especially anticipated.

November is considered a harsh time for the Kpop music race because of the return of a series of idols G-Dragon, Jin (BTS), Baby Monster...

According to experts, the reason artists choose to return at this time is to avoid being "in the spotlight" by award ceremonies in December. Besides, November is the month to "close the book" on achievements, creating conditions for idols to bring new music products to promote at the year-end award stage.

Therefore, it is not surprising that this November, a series of famous names will return, promising an explosive comeback. In addition to the icons of Gen 2 and Gen 3, rookies like BabyMonster will not miss this "golden" time. YG's "chicken" will return with their first full album on November 1. Accordingly, Yang Hyun Suk's promise that the 7 "little monsters" will promote strongly this year has been realized.

At the time of its announcement, the album's tracklist only had one title track, "Drip". However, according to the latest information from the group, in addition to the original title track "Drip", the group has decided to promote another title track, "Clik Clak".

Initially, when the new album was announced, many audiences were excited about Baby Monster's comeback. However, after the songs were released, controversy broke out.

"Drip" has 9 songs, but 2 of them are old. The song Forever was released 3 months ago. It is worth mentioning that the song Batter Up is an old song that has been released in many different versions before.

However, this song was not highly appreciated for both its music and content. Many audiences thought that it was unreasonable to include Batter Up in the group's new album. The audience even criticized the management company for lacking ideas when remixing the group's old song.

In addition, the album posters were also criticized for being outdated. The beauty and figure of BABYMONSTER members were wasted in the concept photos in a maximalist style, highlighting girlcrush looks with strong colors and bold cuts. The series of photos seemed to be stuck in... 10 years ago. BABYMONSTER's charisma was the only plus point. Looking at the concept, fans were impatient, "red alert" about YG's creative situation. Not to mention, the posters were also designed to be extremely old-fashioned, unsophisticated, and even gave a cheap feeling.

In a competitive entertainment market like Kpop, BABYMONSTER being disadvantaged in terms of image will be a big minus, preventing the group from making an impression. This is not the first time YG has been criticized like this.

YG Entertainment previously announced that BabyMonster is preparing to release their first full-length album and that they are in the process of filming multiple music videos, including one for the title track.

The management company added that with full support, the company is completing this major project by filming at many secure locations with a large budget. Recording for Baby Monster's debut album has been completed and choreography for some of the songs has also been done.

Previously, BABYMONSTER's debut album attracted attention with the participation of many YG stars. The hottest thing right now is the appearance of G-Dragon in the credits of the title song Drip. After the YG Family reunion at the recent 2NE1 concert, all speculations about G-Dragon "ignoring" Yang Hyun Suk or turning his back on YG were dispelled. G-Dragon participated in composing music for the new girl group, it can be seen that the relationship between YG's "chickens" is extremely warm.

Social media was "shaken" by the appearance of "Mr. Long" in the credit of his junior's album. Many people were amazed that Yang Hyun Suk was really "going all out" to bring the new girl group back to its rightful position. BABYMONSTER has a chance to "escape the fate of bad music".
