I've been loving @YOUNITE_offcl debut so far and "1 of 9" as one of my favorite debut tracks of the year. I wanted to know the @YOUNITE_twt members better so we got personalized playlists from all 9!

📈 Early industry predictions have @TXT_members spending a 2nd week in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200. It will be a tight week of releases so continuous streaming will be key

It appears Kang Daniel will be officially going by KANGDANIEL, at least across official streaming services. The change has been made across his accounts on major DSPs so if you're looking for #TheStory it will be there 👍 can't wait for the album to drop!

I asked about @GOT7's heavy involvement in this album and how they think GOT7's music and sound has evolved or changed since their last time together at their comeback press conference
@jaybnow_hr said they focused having variety in the #GOT7 EP and making it diverse (1/2)

"Before, we did 'hard-sounding' songs in the beginning and 'chill' ones at the end [of the album], but we balanced it well this time to present more chill vibes when mixing and mastering [this new album]" -@jaybnow_hr on @GOT7's evolving sound for the new EP via press conference

"When I heard the track, I thought it would fit so well with @yugyeom; I wanted to see him dance to this. So, I called him right away to work on this track. I wanted to give a comfort to our fans, making sure they have nothing to worry about" -Jinyoung on "Don't Care About Me"

"I love using a moon reference. It's hard to get to the moon, but I believe with our #Ahgase I can get there. To me, the moon has many different sides: it represents changes, similar to people and life, so I get inspired by the moon" @GOTYJ_Ars_Vita on "Drive Me to the Moon"

@Jeff__Benjamin
"We all were involved in getting and picking the songs. We had blind tests on the demos…we all ended up picking the songs that we ourselves had produced" -@jaybnow_hr on creating the tracklist to @GOT7's new album at their online press conference
