Japanese group GENIC have released their third album, “N_G”, on March 6, 2024. The album’s title “N_G” comes from the “SeveN_Gifts” of its seven talented members, and is also a reference to the Japanese phrase “Negai_Goto”, which means a wish from the heart.

The album includes 14 songs. Seven of these were created through a combination of the seven members’ individual talents, from composition to lyric writing to choreography, and others were produced by artists including Taiki Kudo from boyband Da-iCE, 2023’s Best Global Music Album Grammy Award winner Masanori Takumi, and Jazzin’park hitmaker Shingo Kubota. From the deep meanings underpinning the album’s title to the worldbuilding of its songs, ‘N_G’ is the perfect introduction to GENIC and their music.
