MONSTA X has made a comeback with a new song. MONSTA X released the pre-released song 'Do What I Want' from their new mini-album 'THE X' on the 18th at 6 PM through various music streaming sites. The new song 'Do What I Want' is a hip-hop track infused with self-confidence as MONSTA X celebrates their 10th anniversary. Even with a minimal structure, the addictive hook, groovy bass, and rhythmic drums stand out. Additionally, member Jooheon participated in writing and composing the song, while I.M contributed to the lyrics, expressing the message 'I will do what I want' candidly and intensely. Over the past 10 years, they have boldly maintained their position at the center of the K-POP world, expressing confidence and sharp energy as a 'strong presence' rather than trying to 'appear strong,' providing listeners with a refreshing experience. The music video released simultaneously with the audio embodies the improvisational and direct nature of the theme 'Do What I Want.' MONSTA X releases a confidence that only a group that has 'tried everything and accomplished everything' can show, enhancing the enjoyment of watching and listening. The new mini-album 'THE X,' set to be released on September 1, encapsulates the 10-year journey of MONSTA X. The album title 'THE X' means 'the complete unique unknown,' presenting numerous possibilities and new directions while also coinciding with the Roman numeral X (10), symbolizing the group's 10th anniversary. As they celebrate this meaningful 10th anniversary, they will showcase a total of 6 tracks, including the title track 'N the Front' and songs 'Savior,' 'Tuscan Leather,' 'Catch Me Now,' and 'Fire & Ice,' heating up the music scene in the second half of this year. MONSTA X stated through their agency, 'We decided to do this pre-release to deliver a special gift to our fans before our comeback on September 1. The music video for 'Do What I Want' contains many new aspects and interesting elements that we have not shown before, so we hope for warm interest and love.'
