The album was announced on October 5, 2020.[2][3] The title track for the album is "Love Killa". The group collaborated with labelmates Brother Su and Jooyoung, as well as singer Eric Nam and DJ Justin Oh, for the production of the album.[4] Additionally, the album includes Hyungwon's first song, which he is credited in all aspects of the production, including writing, composing, and arranging, for the song "Nobody Else".[4]

The physical album was released in four versions.

Critical reception

[edit]

According to Faith Jung of SCMP, the album can be summed up in two words: "power" and "charisma", adding that it is a record "packed with bops perfect for dancing". This album proves that they can "come back harder and better with each new release", and each song exemplifies their "distinct style", while complementing the album's "deadly concept".[5]

The album received praise for "showcasing all facets of their songwriting and each members' distinct artistry".[6] The song "Nobody Else" gained praise, for its showcasing of group member Hyungwon's musical range in composition,[7] and the album overall was praised for its "diverse musicality to satisfy any palette".[6]
