[Oh!Ssen Talk] YG Says They Don’t Care about BOBBY&MINO’s Chart Results
[OSEN=박현민 기자] The news that BOBBY, MINO, and unit group MOBB will release new songs is sending shockwaves across the music scene. However, the rappers don’t seem to care about how their songs will do on the charts. An YG official commented that they are already very satisfied with their songs.
On September 6, YG told OSEN, “How will they do on the charts? We don’t expect much as people are really into ballads and not hiphop these days. From the artist’s perspective, good music is music that the audience can really enjoy. It’s been such a long time since we released powerful hiphop songs. We hope that they can bring their explosive energy to the stage.”
What’s more important than what YG thinks is what BOBBY and MINO think. It turns out that they just want to go up on the stage as soon as possible and don’t really care about the chart results. The YG official explained, “They are already satisfied with the quality of the songs and the music videos. BOBBY said he can’t wait to go on the stage. They will appear on this week’s Inkigayo and then perform the songs on stage during the Japan arena tour.”
The triple blow of BOBBY, MINO, and BOBBY&MINO’s MOBB will begin on September 7. BOBBY’s first solo single “HOLUP!” will be released at 12 AM on September 7 and MINO’s “BODY” exactly 24 hours later. Then, at 12 AM on September 9, MOBB’s “HIT ME” and “FULL HOUSE” will be revealed. Also, a total of four music videos will be released. Fans are about to receive a series of presents from YG, and it almost feels like Christmas has arrived early this year.
This is a big project even for YG. No label has released four songs and four music videos in just three days. It is also the first time that members from different YG groups joined hands to form a unit group.
They are releasing the songs that they have worked so hard for almost at the same time, but they are still not worried about the chart results. Maybe this is possible because they are BOBBY and MINO, and of course, because they are YG.
