The Korean boy band Riize has taken a bold step forward with their sophomore album, 'Fame', which delves into a darker and more emotional side of their music. The album, released this week, marks a departure from their previous 'Odyssey' album, which focused on themes of growth and positivity.\n\nRiize members Anton and Sohee revealed that 'Fame' showcases a more mature and introspective sound, with songs like 'Something's in the Water' and 'Sticky Like' offering a glimpse into the group's emotional pop style. The album's title track, 'Fame', is an upbeat hip-hop song that sets the tone for the rest of the album.\n\n"We wanted to explore a different side of ourselves that we haven't shown before," Anton said in an interview. "It's a chance for us to be more honest and vulnerable with our music." Sohee added that the album's tone is a contrast to their previous work, which was more focused on bright and uplifting themes.\n\nRiize, which formed in 2023, has come a long way since their debut in 2024. The group has performed in several cities, including Los Angeles, and has gained a loyal fan base. The 'Riizing Loud' tour, which concluded its U.S. leg on November 14, will continue with performances in Asia in early 2026.\n\nThe album 'Fame' is a testament to Riize's growth and evolution as a group, and fans are eager to see how they will react to the new sound. With their unique blend of emotional pop and hip-hop, Riize is poised to take the K-pop scene by storm.
