‘YF’ or ‘Young Forever’ is the motto of Most Badass Asian and the title of the group’s latest mini album that is brimming over with youthfulness.
MBA released their first mini album ‘Most Badass Asian‘ in February.
In order to convey their thoughts to the listeners in detail, NEAL, EK, and BOLA‘s latest album does not include any featured artists. Even the production of the songs was done completely by NEAL.
The album starts off with EK’s solo track that he proudly and boldly named after himself, only to prove his skills on it. BOLA’s ‘Look Up’ is one of the more stylish tracks of the album. It is about BOLA’s personal values and thoughts about love. The two rappers show off their teamwork in the title track ‘YF’, which is topped off with NEAL’s addictive hook.
Watch the music videos below! The album can be previewed on Korean music portals or on the MBA members’ Instagram accounts (links in track list). A few of the songs are available for free listening on the group’s SoundCloud channel in full length.
