The group’s stylish summer-themed visuals and catchy dance moves are gaining traction online, hinting at their potential to snag the title of this year’s ‘Summer Queens.’
# A Colorful Tracklist
The mini album includes five songs: title track ‘It Was Summer,’ along with ‘Good for U’—a heartfelt rock ballad about the shift from friendship to love, ‘One, Two, Three, Four’—a breezy campus love story, ‘I Wish My Name Was Ocean’—an R&B pop track filled with dreamy vibes and strings, and an instrumental version of the lead single. From youthful romance to serene emotions, the album covers a broad sonic palette that’s perfect for summer listening.
