Official/News: From YG – “News About 2NE1” Part 2 ~ 2NE1’s Double Title Song + Music Video Details

FROM YG: NEWS ABOUT ‘2NE1’: PART 2

So, continuing with the news on 2NE1.

We have urgently postponed 2NE1’s 2nd album release date from the original schedule of 12am on February 24th to 12am on February 26th <which is 0 hour of February 27th>. The offline album will be released on March 7th as planned.

The reason for the urgent change of date is to release the album on a more special day instead, as CL’s birthday falls on February 26th, especially because whopping three songs composed and written by CL for the first time are included in the 2nd album.

I ask for your generosity and understanding for the change.

Details on 2NE1’s titles song?

As this is the first full album released for the first time after several years, we are ambitious to showcase as many songs as we can, but since we are at a point where careful selection and focus are required, we chose two songs for double title songs.

2NE1’s first title song is “COME BACK HOME.” 
Many of you would be reminded of the mega-hit “COME BACK HOME” released by Seotaeji and Boys in 1995, but 2NE1’s upcoming track is a completely different, filled with melody and lyrics about yearning for the long-gone lover.

This is a joint work of YG’s main producer TEDDY and other producers, which encompasses a crossover mixture of R&B, reggae and hip-hop. The noteworthy feature of the 2nd album is the unplugged version of “COME BACK HOME”

The two different versions are greatly different from each other, so we produced two music videos for both songs, which will be released on February 28th simultaneously.

The second title song “GOTTA BE YOU”
A joint work by YG’s producers TEDDY and PK, is a fast-paced song that leaves an impact through BOM’s powerful cry of “Gotta Be You.”

We made the decision to make this the second title song as it has an impression of mainstream taste.

How many music videos will be produced for the 2nd album?

A total of four music videos will be showcased this time.

As mentioned earlier, the two versions of “COME BACK HOME” music videos will be released simultaneously on February 28th, and the other double title song “GOTTA BE YOU” will come next, and the music video of a song titled “HAPPY” filmed in the U.S. will follow.

The track list of 2NE1’s 2nd album will be released tomorrow at 10pm.

This is all I have for 2NE1’s album, and I will be back with information on YG’s new groups that will be revealed this year.

Thank you.

Official/News: From YG – “News About 2NE1” ~ 2NE1’s Second Full Album “Crush” to be Released on February 24th!

From YG: NEWS ABOUT ‘2NE1’

A very belated new year’s greetings…

Hello everyone, this is YANG HYUN SUK.

I get an opportunity to send you greetings in writing about once a year.

And as this is a rare chance, I would like to share my thoughts with you
on some of the things that had my mind reeling, while also delivering news on YG artists in 2014.

2014 is expected to be a more important year than any other ones for YG.
To put it bluntly, 2014 is like a year of big gamble that will determine the next 10 years of this entertainment agency.

Not only is it a year where YG’s main artists PSY, BIGBANG and 2NE1 are releasing albums for the first time in a while,
but it is also a year where sensational four new groups of YG will be unveiled, after a very long period of preparing and training.

It takes YG several years to produce an album for the existing artists, and they’re unveiling four new groups? Four?

I agree that this is not an easy task, so I choose to use the word “challenge.”
And since it’s also risky, I say this is a “gamble” for us, but we are determined to achieve the goal.

And the only way to reach the goal is to produce good music.

This calls for maximizing the talents of YG artists with composing and writing skills, as well as more than ten YG composers.
In order to do this, we expanded our music studio, recording and dance training rooms for the last few months,
while also arranging meetings with foreign music producers for active collaboration.

Now to the main news. I would like to tell you all the details of what is happening to the YG artists.

Since there’s a lot to say, I would like to make it into a brief Q&A form, keeping in mind some questions you would have.
Thank you for your understanding.

Of the 2014 list, which YG artist is the first in line?

Is it because we had fans waiting for too long? Just hearing the name 2NE1 makes our hearts throb.

People who are not familiar with the details might think I am overreacting when I say this,
but I do so because 2NE1, who made a debut 6 years ago, will be unveiling a full album with many new songs for the very first time.

To be more precise, 2NE1 released their first album 4 years ago in September 2010,
but it was an album with just a few new songs added to the previous single soundtracks.
So this is the first time in 6 years for the divas to be unveiling an album full of new songs.

When is 2NE1’s 2nd full album release?

2NE1’s second full album will be released at 12 am on February 24th on online music sites.
The album will go on sale offline the following week.

The music video (MV) of 2NE1’s latest title song, which is an MV with the largest budget for the group,
requires high level of computer graphic work.
So a teaser video will be unveiled first on February 24th, and then a completed version on February 28th.

2NE1’s new songs will be presented for the first time at their Seoul concert on March 1st and 2nd.
