EPEX has dropped their pre-release single, “My Girl,” ahead of the upcoming release of their second full-length album. This single comes six months after the release of EPEX’s first full-length album, Youth Chapter 1 : YOUTH DAYS, and showcases a bright, bubbly sound from the group.
“My Girl” is an upbeat love song that portrays the awkward clumsiness that can come with falling in love and sourcing the courage to express those feelings. The lyrics are sweet and honest, complementing the R&B hip-hop track with a groovy baseline, powerful synth pads, and catchy synth plucks. The track has an impressive lineup of producers, who collectively have credits on songs by groups such as EXO, STRAY KIDS, SHINee, and more.
