Young & Reckless
"Young & Reckless" depicts overwhelming confidence and a fearless spirit of challenge. It is a song that vividly expresses ONE OR EIGHT, who have turned anywhere in the world into their playground and carved out their own path by continuing to take on challenges. The song energetically depicts them forging ahead with unwavering confidence and determination, unconstrained by the opinions of others, and is imbued with a light-hearted playfulness and a strong belief in never compromising on one's way of life.
The track's sound, a collaboration between Kavi, co-producer of Tommy Richman's global smash hit "Million Dollar Baby," and Edwin Honoret (formerly of PRETTYMUCH), delivers a trendsetting hybrid sound. Exotic and mysterious melodies incorporating Arabic scales, soulful vocals, mellow R&B vibes, and sharp, trap-inspired raps intertwine to create a cross-genre soundscape with international appeal. The track's heavy drum kicks and deep, low-mid range sounds lend the track a powerful immersive feel. The beat, which blends futuristic electronic sounds, edgy vibes, and '90s-'00s nostalgia, blends with the innocence and freedom of boy bands, creating a track that could become a symbol of the "next generation of pop"—both popular and avant-garde.
In contrast to the image of pop stars of the past, where beauty and perfection were the standard, ONE OR EIGHT's attitude of daring to remain "incomplete" emerges strongly through their songs as the rebellious spirit of a new era. An anthem dedicated to "all the young and reckless" of the past, present and future, it is a song that reminds you of the infinite possibilities of your own imagination, making you want to shake off doubts and take on something new.
