KISS OF LIFE 3rd Mini Album [Lose Yourself]
3rd Mini Album “Lose Yourself” released
-'Talented hot girl' KISS OF LIFE's third mini album "Lose Yourself" is aiming for global success!
- A comeback as an artist who transcends “freedom” and tells the story of “immersion” through music!
-Do we look like weirdos? This is also an attractive me! The title song 'Get Loud', which contains a story about those who dream in reality, is released.
KISS OF LIFE, who captivated fans and the public with their live skills and boundless energy and created a strong storm in the music market, have shown remarkable growth while realizing their ambition to breathe new life into the music industry. The music video for KISS OF LIFE's previously released digital single "Sticky", which contains KISS OF LIFE's refreshing sensibility, received a hot response as soon as it was released, and ranked on YouTube's domestically rising music charts as well as on global countries' rising video charts in the US, UK, and Australia.
In addition, they have solidified their presence as a global trend loved both domestically and internationally by taking the top spots on domestic music charts and making it onto Billboard's World Digital Song Sales chart and Billboard's Global 200 chart. Since their debut, KISS OF LIFE has established their position with a variety of music and performances across genres based on their skills, and have achieved meaningful records such as winning first place on a music show and breaking into the TOP 3 of domestic charts within a year of their debut.
Continuing this momentum, KISS OF LIFE is trying to establish themselves as a unique individuality with their third mini-album [Lose Yourself]. KISS OF LIFE, who have organically linked each album with the keyword “freedom” since their debut album, musically express the process of “immersion” that transcends “freedom” in this album.
“You exist in me, and I exist in you like the universe.”
“So lose yourself”
In this album [Lose Yourself], the points where the KISS OF LIFE of the title song 'Get Loud' and the KISS OF LIFE of the pre-released song 'REM' intersect are drawn in a fun way. The two songs are organically connected with the keyword of "immersion" and at the same time, they provide the fun of interpretation by telling stories of reality and dreams from different directions.
'Get Loud' tells the story of slightly strange artists who chase their dreams in reality. It depicts how, while being engrossed in something may seem eccentric to others, such an appearance can be charming and professional on the contrary. As the lyrics say, "This is like a dream that never wakes up," it highlights the shining moments of those who immerse themselves in what they love and dream in reality. Also, in this music video, the charming appearance of the artist discovering a new side of himself that he never knew existed in the moment of immersion in creation is uniquely and trendily visually expressed through the medium of "Confetti."
On the other hand, the pre-released song 'REM' is a song about those who do not want to face reality and want to escape into their dreams. They decide that "it's okay to just meet what I want, even in my dreams," but in the end, they cannot erase their desire to face it in reality, not in their dreams. We miss a certain time, or become obsessed with a time that cannot be returned. That may seem foolish to others or be laughed at, but it reminds us that someone's obsession with the longing to meet again, even in their dreams, can be someone else's earnest dream and hope.
The main characters of 'Get Loud' and 'REM' are the same person. There are moments when they shine, but there are also times when they miss those moments. The various inner sides of one person are expressed through the material of 'doppelganger', and the message is that in some way, people want to immerse themselves in their own lives, reflect on themselves, and gain enlightenment.
This third mini album [Lose Yourself] consists of a total of 7 tracks of various genres ranging from groovy R&B to chill hip-hop and EDM dance-pop, including the pre-released track "REM" with a dreamy mood and emotional melody, and the title track "Get Loud" of the rhythmic hip-hop dance genre that strongly shows KISS OF LIFE's unique personality, allowing you to fully enjoy KISS OF LIFE's unique musical color. Through this album, the group plans to grow once again as an artist who can make you even more immersed in the story of KISS OF LIFE.
01. Get Loud – Title
'Get Loud' is an impressive track with a hip-hop rhythm in the dougie style and a guitar stroke chop that supports it. It is a song with a Latin-style melody that stands out attractively. The lyrics expressing a state of being immersed in music and the moment are expressed through the members' unique vocals, further highlighting KISS OF LIFE's artistic side. Through the heavy yet rough vocals and the genre elements revealed throughout the track, you will be able to feel the unique color of KISS OF LIFE that was shown in previous works even more strongly.

02. REM
Born from the collaboration of 'Cathy Dennis', who created hit songs for 2000s divas such as Britney Spears and Celine Dion, and KISS OF LIFE, 'REM' is a medium-tempo R&B pop song with an exquisite blend of vintage EP riffs, heavy bass, and modern R&B rhythm. The groovy and mellow top line perfectly recreates the Y2K mood, combined with the members' unique vocals. The song, which contains lyrics about missing someone who appears in a dream and wanting to maintain REM sleep without waking up, presents a fairy tale to listeners with a dreamy and warm voice.

Track 3, 'Chemistry', is a groovy slow jam R&B number reminiscent of 3Letter Names girl groups from the 90s and 00s such as TLC, SWV, and 3LW.

The sensual vocals combined with the lyrics about falling deeper and deeper the moment you face each other instantly captivate the audience.

05. Too Many Alex
Track 5, 'Too Many Alex', is a song that humorously unravels the witty lyrics, "I have too many names on my phone", and shows off a bouncy charm with the combination of sample chop sound, analog synth bass, and drum machine sound. In particular, the rap part that utilizes various names in the post-chorus adds to the fun of the song, and creates a unique atmosphere with the rhythmic melody. You can feel a new musical fun by experiencing the cheerful storytelling created by the cheerful beat and creative lyrics.

The 6th track, 'Back To Me', a pop rock genre with a catchy yet emotional melody, is an impressive song with a strong yet cool band sound and emotional melody. The dreamy chords on the refreshing beat create a unique atmosphere for the song, doubling the emotion, and the lyrics, which depict a person who has overcome the pain of loss and filled the empty space with himself, leave a deep lingering impression.

07. No One But Us
The last track, 'No One But Us', is a song that contains the charm of the EDM and pop genres, and the attractive synthesizer riff and emotional lyrics combine to enrich the overall atmosphere of the song. The minimal yet addictive theme and the track size that changes according to the composition of the song add to the pleasure of listening, and the emotional melody and sophisticated sound design that contain lyrics that reminisce about memories and miss the other person make this song stand out even more.

KISS OF LIFE 3rd Mini Album [Lose Yourself]
3rd Mini Album “Lose Yourself” 발매
-'실력파 핫걸' KISS OF LIFE의 세 번째 미니앨범 “Lose Yourself”로 글로벌 정조준!
-“자유”를 초월해 “몰입”의 과정을 음악으로 이야기하는 아티스트로 컴백!
-우리가 괴짜처럼 보여? 이 모습 또한 매력적인 나야! 현실에서 꿈꾸는 이들에 대한 이야기를 담은 타이틀 곡 'Get Loud' 공개
라이브 실력과 무한한 에너지로 팬과 대중을 사로잡으며 음악시장에 강력한 돌풍을 일으킨 KISS OF LIFE는 가요계에 새 숨을 불어넣겠다는 포부를 실현해 나가며 괄목할 만한 성장세를 보여주었다. 앞서 발매된 KISS OF LIFE의 청량한 감성을 담은 디지털 싱글 'Sticky'의 뮤직비디오는 공개됨과 동시에 뜨거운 반응을 얻으며, 유튜브 국내 인기 급상승 음악 순위를 비롯해 미국, 영국, 호주 등 글로벌 국가 인기 급상승 동영상 차트에 랭크 됐다.
또한, 국내 음원 차트에서 상위권을 차지하는 동시에 빌보드 월드 디지털 송 세일즈 차트와 빌보드 글로벌 200차트에 이름을 올리며 국내외를 아울러 사랑받는 글로벌 대세로서의 존재감을 확고히 보여줬다. 데뷔 이후 실력 기반의 장르 불문 다양한 음악과 퍼포먼스로 입지를 다져온 KISS OF LIFE는 데뷔 1년 만에 음악방송 1위, 국내 차트에서 TOP 3 돌파 등 유의미한 기록을 썼다.
이러한 기세를 이어받아 KISS OF LIFE는 세 번째 미니앨범 [Lose Yourself]로 그들의 독보적인 개성으로 자리매김하려 한다. 데뷔 앨범부터 현재까지 “자유”라는 키워드로 각 앨범을 유기적으로 연결해온 KISS OF LIFE는 이번 앨범에서는 “자유”를 초월한 “몰입”의 과정을 음악적으로 표현한다.
“당신은 내 안에 존재하며, 나는 우주와 같은 당신 안에 존재한다.”
“So lose yourself”
이번 앨범 [Lose Yourself]에서는 타이틀 곡 'Get Loud'에서의 KISS OF LIFE와 선공개 곡 'R.E.M'의 KISS OF LIFE가 서로 맞닿는 지점들을 재미있게 그려낸다. 두 곡은 “몰입”이라는 키워드를 가지고 유기적으로 연결되어 있음과 동시에 현실과 꿈을 서로 다른 방향에서 스토리텔링 하며 해석의 재미를 선사한다.
'Get Loud'는 현실에서 꿈을 좇는, 조금은 이상해 보이는 아티스트들의 이야기를 담고 있다. 어떠한 일에 몰입해 있는 모습이 타인의 눈에는 괴짜처럼 보일 수도 있지만 반대로 그런 모습이 매력적이고 프로페셔널해 보일 수 있음을 그린다. “이건 마치 깨지 않는 꿈”이라는 가사처럼 현실에서 자신이 좋아하는 것에 몰입하며 꿈을 꾸는 이들의 빛나는 순간을 조명한다. 또한 이번 뮤직비디오에서도 창작에 몰입하는 순간 나도 몰랐던 새로운 나를 발견하는 아티스트의 매력적인 모습을 “Confetti”라는 매개체를 통해 유니크하고 트렌디하게 시각적으로 풀어냈다.
반면, 선공개 곡 'R.E.M'은 현실을 마주하고 싶지 않아 꿈속으로 도피하고자 하는 이들의 이야기를 다룬 곡이다. "꿈에서라도 원하던 그 무언가를 만나는 것만으로 괜찮아"라고 결심하지만, 결국 꿈이 아닌 현실에서도 마주하고 싶은 마음을 지워내지는 못한다. 우리는 어떠한 시간을 그리워 하기도, 되돌릴 수 없는 시간에 집착하는데 몰입한다. 그런 모습은 타인에게 미련해 보이기도, 비웃음을 살 수도 있지만 꿈속에서라도 다시 마주하고 싶은 그리움에 대한 어떤 이의 몰입이 누군가에게는 간절한 꿈이자 희망일 수 있음을 상기시켜준다.
'Get Loud'와 'R.E.M'의 주인공은 모두 같은 인물이다. 빛이 나는 순간이 있는 반면 그 순간을 그리워하는 시간도 존재한다. 한 인물의 다양한 내면을 '도플갱어'라는 소재로 풀어내며 어떠한 방식으로든 본인의 삶에 몰입하고 스스로를 되돌아보며 깨달음을 얻길 바란다는 메시지를 전달한다.
이번 미니 3집 [Lose Yourself]는 감성적인 멜로디가 돋보이는 몽환적인 무드의 선공개곡 'R.E.M'과 KISS OF LIFE만의 개성을 강하게 드러내는 리드미컬한 힙합 댄스 장르의 타이틀곡 'Get Loud'를 포함하여, 그루비한 알앤비부터 칠한 힙합, EDM 댄스팝까지 다양한 장르의 총 7개의 수록곡으로 구성되어 KISS OF LIFE만의 독보적인 음악적 색깔을 만끽할 수 있다. 이번 앨범을 통해 이제는 키스오브라이프의 이야기에 한층 더 몰입할 수 있게끔 만드는 아티스트로 한번 더 성장할 예정이다.
01. Get Loud – Title
더기스타일의 힙합리듬과 이를 뒷받침하는 기타 스트로크 찹이 인상적인 트랙인 'Get Loud'는 라틴풍의 멜로디가 매력적으로 돋보이는 곡이다. 음악과 순간에 몰입한 상태를 표현하는 가사를 멤버들의 개성 있는 보컬로 소화해 KISS OF LIFE의 아티스트적인 면모를 더욱 두드러지게 한다. 묵직하면서도 거친 보컬과 트랙 곳곳에서 드러나는 장르적인 요소들을 통해, 전작들에서 보여주었던 KISS OF LIFE의 독보적인 색깔을 더욱 진하게 느낄 수 있을 것이다.

02. R.E.M
브리트니 스피어스(Britney Spears), 셀린 디온(Celine Dion)등 2000년대 디바들의 명곡을 탄생시킨 'Cathy Dennis'와 KISS OF LIFE의 콜라보로 탄생한 'R.E.M'은 빈티지한 EP리프와 묵직한 베이스, 현대적인 알앤비 리듬이 절묘하게 어우러지는 미디엄템포 알앤비 팝 장르의 곡이다. 그루비하고 멜로우한 탑라인이 멤버들의 개성 있는 보컬과 어우러져 Y2K 무드를 완벽하게 재현했다. 꿈속에서 나타나는 누군가를 그리워하며, 꿈에서 깨어나지 않고 REM(렘) 수면 상태를 유지하고 싶다는 내용의 가사를 담고 있는 이 곡은 몽환적이고 따뜻한 목소리로 리스너들에게 한 편의 동화를 선사한다.

04. Igloo
4번 트랙 'Igloo'는 미니멀하면서도 트렌디한 비트, 풍성한 화음과 칠한 랩의 조화가 돋보이는 알앤비 힙합 곡이다. 안에서 불을 피워도 녹지 않는 이글루조차 KISS OF LIFE의 매력으로 녹일 수 있다는 내용의 가사가 강렬하면서도 매혹적으로 다가온다. 캐치한 멜로디를 엣지있는 래핑과 몽환적인 보컬로 소화해 내는 멤버들의 새로운 면모를 발견할 수 있다.

05. Too Many Alex
5번 트랙 'Too Many Alex'는 “내 핸드폰에 같은 이름이 너무 많아”라는 위트 있는 가사를 유쾌하게 풀어낸 곡으로, 샘플찹 사운드와 아날로그 신스베이스, 그리고 드럼머신 사운드가 어우러져 통통 튀는 매력을 보여준다. 특히 포스트 코러스에 등장하는 다양한 이름을 활용한 랩 파트는 곡의 재미를 한층 더해주며, 리드미컬한 멜로디와 함께 독특한 분위기를 만들어낸다. 경쾌한 비트와 창의적인 가사가 만들어 내는 유쾌한 스토리텔링을 경험하며 새로운 음악적 재미를 느껴볼 수 있다.

06. Back To Me
캐치하면서도 감성적인 멜로디가 돋보이는 팝 록 장르의 6번 트랙 'Back To Me'는 강렬하면서도 시원한 밴드 사운드와 감성적인 멜로디가 인상적인 곡이다. 청량한 비트 위 몽환적인 코드가 곡 특유의 분위기를 만들어내며 감동을 배가시키고, 상실의 아픔을 딛고 빈 공간을 자신으로 채워 한층 더 성장한 모습을 그리는 가사가 깊은 여운을 남긴다
