FIFTY FIFTY Releases ‘The Beginning’ EP: Stream It Now
Written by djfrosty on September 22, 2023
After taking the internet by storm with their breakthrough single “Cupid,” FIFTY FIFTY‘s latest EP, The Beginning, arrived on Friday (Sept. 22).
The set — which contains tracks from the group’s EPs The Beginning: Cupid and The Fifty, as well as three tracks that are newly recorded — is available on seven physical variants for the first time. The original version one of the album comes in pink, with version two in orange. Exclusive variants for Target, Barnes & Noble, Walmart, Amazon and D2C come in red, green, blue, yellow and purple respectively. Each version of the CD is also packaged with a 196-page booklet with two of four exclusive trading cards included inside.
Single “Cupid” — which is also included on The Beginning — earned FIFTY FIFTY its first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 in March. The track, propelled by its usage in videos on social media platform TikTok, continued to gain on the charts throughout the year before reaching a peak of No. 17 on the tally. In August, the K-pop group — which consists of members Sio, Saena, Aran, and Keena — released a new version of the single featuring Sabrina Carpenter.
FIFTY FIFTY also participated in a big pop-culture moment earlier this year when the group was included on the Barbie movie’s soundtrack, Barbie The Album. The K-pop group’s contribution was “Barbie Dreams” featuring rapper Kaliii, the final tune on the soundtrack.
