\n\tIt\u2019s a new era for aespa<\/a>, and the band wants to you \u201cfeel somethin\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSeoul-based K-pop girl group aespa released \u201cWDA (Whole Different Animal),\u201d the first song from their upcoming second studio album LEMONADE<\/em>, on Monday (May 11). The new track features G-DRAGON, the band leader of fellow K-pop hitmakers BIGBANG<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWDA (Whole Different Animal)\u201d is bass and synth-heavy dance track with clear hip-hop influences. The song features lyrics in English and Korean. G-DRAGON lends his rap skills to the song\u2019s third verse before the track closes out with one more refrain of \u201cShe a whole different animal\u201d and \u201cGive me all smoke, gun powder, powder.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAlongside the single release, aespa has also dropped a music video for the track. The visual for \u201cWDA (Whole Different Animal)\u201d brings viewers into a world where the line between reality and digital is blurred. In the eerie video, replicas of aespa\u2019s four members appear and continuously multiply, distorting ideas of what is real and what is fake. Ultimately, the girl group is able to break through the chaos and reclaim their identities. <\/p>\n

\n\tWinners of the 2025 Billboard Women in Music award for Group of the Year, aespa announced the release of its forthcoming album LEMONADE <\/em>in April. The LP is the follow-up to the group\u2019s 2024 Billboard 200 No. 8 EP Whiplash<\/em> and will drop on May 29. The album release will be followed by the girl group\u2019s fourth world tour SYNK: COMPL\u00e6XITY, which begins not long after the conclusion of its SYNK : aeXIS LINE tour last month. SYNK: COMPL\u00e6XITY will kick off on August 7 with two nights in Seoul before making its way across a few more stops in Asia, traversing across North America and concluding with shows across Europe. <\/p>\n
