8TURN makes their comeback with the first single album, "LEGGO," showcasing the group's artistic growth and expanded musical range. The album features two contrasting tracks: the powerful title track "LEGGO," which captures 8TURN's youthful energy, and "I Want You Now," a heartfelt love confession.
Following their participation in MNET's survival TV show Road to Kingdom: Ace of Ace, 8TURN released two digital singles - "You Are My Reason" and "Like a Friend." Now, with "LEGGO," they continue to build momentum, delivering a fresh and dynamic sound. Notably, members SEUNG HEON and YUN GYU took part in writing the title track, adding their personal touch to its powerful message.
LEGGO
The title track "LEGGO" is an explosion of energy, blending bouncy rap with an old-school hip-hop beat.
Opening with bold brass instrumentals, the song's signature New Jack Swing rhythm and irresistibly catchy hook leave a lasting impression. Retro-inspired scratch sounds and breakbeats seamlessly weave through the track, amplifying its funky vibe. Lyrically, "LEGGO" speaks to those looking to break free from the monotony of daily life, with an empowering message to "drop your worries" and embrace the moment. With its infectious confidence and MZ-generation spirit, the song fuels ambition and delivers an exhilarating sense of freedom.
I Want You Now
A striking contrast to "LEGGO," "I Want You Now" highlights 8TURN's soulful vocals, creating a warm, romantic atmosphere with its blues-infused guitar riff. The track's heartfelt lyrics and melodic charm evoke the feeling of dancing under a starlit summer night, delivering an honest and straightforward love confession. Notably, Norwegian singer-songwriter Peder Elias, known for his collaborations with SEVENTEEN's BSS ("7PM") and ASTRO's Cha Eun-woo ("Hey Hello"), contributed to the composition, infusing the song with his signature sensitivity. With its emotional depth, "I Want You Now" serves as 8TURN's personal message to fans around the world.
Moving forward, 8TURN are gearing up for a world tour, set to kick off in the US this April. The 8TURNRISE tour will feature more than ten shows across the country, starting in New York on April 9 and wrapping up in San Francisco on May 5, 2025.
