On the night of April 13, CORTIS (Martin, James, Juhun, Seonghyun, Gunho) posted the track titles and credits on their official social media. The album features a total of six songs, including the title track 'REDRED', along with 'TNT', 'ACAI', 'YOUNGCREATORCREW', 'Wassup', and 'Blue Lips'.
All five members are credited, highlighting their collective creativity. Similar to their debut album, they conducted a songwriting camp in Los Angeles for this project, with significant involvement in crafting most tracks. The title track 'REDRED' addresses the aspirations of the group, using red as a metaphor for the boundaries they aim to transcend. This song embodies their journey towards exploring their distinctive direction, featuring catchy melodies and unique lyrics that promise to captivate fans.
The song 'REDRED' will be pre-released on the 20th along with its music video. The other tracks reflect the members' personal experiences, with 'TNT' capturing their vibrant energy, and 'ACAI' inspired by a staple they enjoyed during recording sessions. The concluding track 'Blue Lips' stems from a song Martin wrote as a trainee, exploring themes of dreams and wounds.
The accompanying promotional images were conceptualized by CORTIS themselves, showcasing the members in candid moments, amplifying anticipation around the album. Their mini-album is set to be released on May 4, and they have already amassed 202,224 pre-orders, raising hopes for another double million-seller following their debut.
The album 'GREENGREEN' is anticipated to showcase CORTIS's more profound musical experimentation based on their previous works. The title track 'REDRED' effectively conveys their search for identity and messages through color, indicating that the group is solidifying its position not just as idols but as distinctive musical artists.
Notably, the direct involvement of the members in songwriting enhances the authenticity of the tracks. By collaborating in a songwriting camp in the U.S., they've generated innovative sounds that are fresh and appealing. Fans will likely witness an evolved version of CORTIS through their bold attitude and musical decisiveness.
Additionally, this album reflects CORTIS's approach and passion, strengthening their connection with their audience. The pre-order volume exceeding 2 million mirrors these expectations and may serve as a strong symbol for their future successful endeavors.
