iKON's B.I talks about what it was like producing 'New Kids: Continue' and compares Love Scenario to Jekyll and Killing Me to Hyde

[Mees Madds]

iKON’s B.I is mature beyond his years.

 

In an interview about iKON’s upcoming mini album “New Kids: Continue,†leader B.I shared how he produces and how he deals with roadblocks while making music.

 

He explained he goes to the Han River whenever he has too many conflicting thoughts and can’t focus. At first, B.I will just walk while not thinking about anything, before he slowly starts to organize his thoughts one by one, beginning with the basics.

 

“When things go well, I can create a track all at once, quite easily, without worrying about it too much.†B.I commented. “You have to go with your gut feeling without trying to change too many things.†The idol explained that he had almost strayed while composing iKON’s upcoming title track “Killing Me,†but went back to what he wanted initially wanted to do with it again after going around in circles.

 

B.I added, “It’s a little different from what iKON has done before. Of course, ‘Love Scenario’ was different too. They’re like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. If ‘Love Scenario’ is Dr. Jekyll, then ‘Killing Me’ would be Mr. Hyde. I think it’s an album that will show yet another side of us.â€

 

B.I concluded by sharing his thoughts on the mini album’s title, “New Kids: Continue,†saying that it represents how iKON will continue on their own path as they are, always have been, without worrying about other people.

 

iKON will drop “New Kids: Continue†on August 2.

I love how experimental hanbin is with ikon music like they didnt stick with what they comfortable with but rather come out with different sound everytime. 

[TAE ZONE]

Of course, ‘Love Scenario’ was different too. They’re like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. If ‘Love Scenario’ is Dr. Jekyll, then ‘Killing Me’ would be Mr. Hyde. I think it’s an album that will show yet another side of us.

 

interesting, it's always cool to show different sides/styles

[GRISHA - A Yoonbin Stan]

I could sit for hours listening to Hanbin talk.. and I have during his hour long CH+ v-lives.. he has such a fascinating mind and I love getting a glimpse of it through interviews like this.

I liked the way he phrased this, interesting

[YGstan]

Diversity. I like it.

 

I think it's the growth and evolution of iKON.

[Alice_]

I'm amazed of his mental growth.

 

and his way of thinking is like a philosopher

What a great mindset, fully support it.

[Riyuu]

It represents how iKON will continue on their own path as they are, always have been, without worrying about other people.

He is doing his own music. He is having fun. He is happy. That's all that matter.

[YGstan]

The maturity he has is just amazing to watch.

[iKONIC BINIC]

Aside from his natural talent, HANBIN has an interesting mind, that's for sure!!

THAT'S ME

[yournoona]

They can never please people anyways. When they released live scenario / my type, some would be like we want iKON we knew from win & m&m. When they released just teasers of killing me, some would be like "what is this disrespect to love scenario?"

LMFAO

However i know hanbin has evolved as a producer and is aware of what music public wants and what he and iKON wants hence coming up with "well made kpop"

Now, he put emotional lyrics to fast or cheerful/bright tempo like killing me & love scenario, something you wouldn't really find in their previous songs.

[Gerick]

The maturity he has is just amazing to watch.
