NCT 127 Release Neo Zone, NCT Unit's Latest Mini Album
JAKARTA - The rookie group from SM Entertainment NCT 127 returns with their latest album titled Neo Zone. The agency reported the presence of an album containing 13 songs at the beginning of last year following their expansion into the United States.
NCT 127 named Kick It as the main track of this album. Kick It is a cross between funk and dance that is dominated by hip-hop elements. This song that tells about the strength of yourself is equipped with a video clip on the theme of the old martial film.
They also play the lyrics using the word 'Bruce Lee' in the chorus. No wonder the choreography that is displayed also seems to be taking high kicks. Kick It, the hangul name is 영웅 which means hero.
Still choosing hip-hop, songs like Boom, Pandora's Box, and Elevator still sound very NCT 127. Several other tracks adopt slow r & b with vocal lines from Doyoung, Taeil, Jaehyun, Haechan, and Jungwoo.
Their vocal character should be taken into account. With different vocal ranges, the five of them complement each other. You can listen to Day Dream and Love Song to prove it.
Not only the vocal line, the rap line also has its flagship on this album. MAD DOG Tracks and Sit Downs! is a place for NCT 127 to have fun. The unit, which is filled by Taeyong, Johnny, and Mark, has been involved in writing lyrics, while for the production side, Hitchiker, Charles Stephens, Harvey Mason Jr. and much more.
The nuance of r & b '90s is felt on the last three tracks on the album Neo Zone; White Night, Not Alone, and Dreams Come True emphasize soft vocals and thin falsettos. Neo Zone is the return of NCT 127 after the last time we released We Are Superhuman in 2018.
This album is NCT 127's emphasis on their quality as a boy group that cannot be ruled out. Rather than looking for something new, this group chooses to focus on developing what they are good at and certainly NCTZen (NCT fans) know this.
Prior to its release, Neo Zone managed to reach pre-orders of more than 530 thousand beating the We Are Superhuman album orders. This record is also supported by their album which won the iTunes Worldwide charts. Previously, their album entered the Billboard 200 chart and sat at number 11.
NCT 127 is scheduled to promote on Music Bank, Show Music Core, and Inkigayo. They will also perform at RodeoHouston 2020 in Texas, United States on March 10. RodeoHouston is an annual concert event held for 20 days.
They also announced a North American tour in the Neo City - The Awards concert tour. Starting from June 5 in New York, continuing on to Atlanta, Chicago, Chicago, San Jose, Los Angeles and ending in Seattle on June 21.
