Written by @sheonshine | July 3rd, 2023Five months after the success of “SHOOTING STAR,” global group XG is back with a pre-release single for their upcoming first mini album.

“GRL GVNG” perfectly showcases XG’s rap and singing skills, further cementing them as one of Asian-Pop’s strongest hip-hop groups. The lyrics boast of the group’s individuality and badass image over a trap beat.

Although “SHOOTING STAR” and its accompanying b-side “LEFT RIGHT” were released five months ago, XG have consistently been releasing new performance videos and remixes for both songs, as well as original raps and vocal covers, giving respect back to the musicians that influence them and proving their lyrics about constantly being on the grind.

"Work flow, hustle game
Never pick fights with a girl gang
All of my ladies are fire
Rolling with queens, it's a female empire"The MV is an explosion of sci-fi visuals and anime references, including Ghost in the Shell, Akira, and Neon Genesis Evangelion. The members of XG are decked out in edgy, hi-tech outfits in a futuristic spaceship and accompanying landscape. With a giant robot looming in the background of the final shot, ALPHAZ are more excited than ever to see what XG’s upcoming mini album has in store!Watch the music video for “GRL GVNG” and check out the song on all music streaming platforms.
