WHAT IT IS: After a huge, sold-out 2018 world tour, a Jingle Ball tour and many awards, the South Korean group is releasing the second part of their album, Take.1 Are You There?. This album emphasizes the theme of finding hope between loss and wandering. Lead single “Alligator” is a dance song that mixes powerful future pop with a unique hip-hop vibe, adding in the addictive hook and emotional escalation.
