Billy‘s Jazz Hip Hop ‘Trampoline’… “The moment you float, the problem is solved” [DA:New song]

MUSIC Oct 11, 2024

Translation

The group Billlie (Siyoon, Sean, Tsuki, Moonsooah, Haram, Suhyun, Haruna) pre-released the single ‘tRampoline’ today (the 11th) at 1 PM.

‘Trampoline’ is a Nu jazz song that stands out with its refreshing EP and groovy bass line. The melody that utilizes scat and ad-lib, which are mainly used in jazz, and the jazz hip-hop style rap have been added to melt Billie‘s unique identity that is rarely found in the K-pop scene.

The lyrics recall memories of jumping high on a trampoline as a child, as if they could touch the sky, and contain hopeful content about overcoming any hardships in the present.


In the music video released along with the song, the members show off various facial expressions while jumping on a ‘trampoline’. The dreamy yet hazy atmosphere of the video makes you feel like you’re watching a movie.

Billy, who warmed up his comeback with the pre-released single ‘trampoline’, will release his 5th mini-album [appendix: Of All We Have Lost] on the 16th. The new album contains a total of 6 tracks, including the title track ‘Memory Candy’, whose lyrics IU participated in writing.
