CORTIS Ignites Gen Z Sparks: Fresh K-Pop Crew Drops Hip-Hop Fire with Unstoppable Teen Vibes!
CORTIS Blasting Off: 'GO!' Fires Up with Street Rap Punch and Unbridled Energy Picture this: a debut that slams like an epic rap clash on buzzing city streets - that's CORTIS, the five-member powerhouse from Big Hit Music, unleashing their pre-release music video for 'GO!' right at midnight KST on August 11, 2025. It kicks off with the fourth member's smooth bars: "We don't need another sign. Paint the town with green lights. Foot on the pedal like a bike. I just gotta get it, watch me go," cranking up the drive without any over-the-top bells and whistles. Skipping flashy melodies, the song thrives on stripped-down trap beats punched with sharp synth hits, evoking the vibe of a spontaneous jam that's bursting with raw vitality. The lineup - Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyeon, and Keonho - each grabs the mic with their distinct flows and vibes, weaving a high-speed surge that perfectly captures the track's bold, forward-pushing essence. Shot across lively Los Angeles spots, the video dives into real-deal fun like charging through splashing car washes, wild runs with a 360-camera clamped in teeth, and snappy stop-motion tricks that amp up the hip-hop freedom. It's the sort of high-energy hit that makes you want to hit play on repeat, feeling that unstoppable rush like cruising through chaotic traffic with zero cares - a total mood booster with its carefree, youthful punch that keeps the adrenaline flowing non-stop. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 30 Captivating Portraits of Women from 80–100 Years Ago Undo Legacy Remix: Hip-Hop Foundations Meet Gen Z Playfulness, Channeling BTS Roots CORTIS isn't just dropping in fresh; they're accelerating from Big Hit Music's iconic roots, the label that skyrocketed BTS to worldwide fame more than a decade back with their gritty, message-packed hip-hop tracks that shook the industry. Think back to BTS's early bold claim of "100% real hip-hop," where they shattered conventions through songs that probed deep into dreams and shrugged off grown-up constraints, building a fan army with their authentic rebellion. CORTIS taps into that core energy but flips it with a Gen Z spin, trading intense social digs for bubbly teen mischief and pure fun vibes. Building on acts like TXT, who pivoted to uplifting tales of personal growth, inner struggles, and buddy-bond healing - evolving from anxious youth vibes to finding comfort in connections - this new squad steers back to hip-hop purity while sprinkling in lighthearted rebellion. As Big Hit's first boy group launch in six years post-TXT, they're lined up to carry forward BTS's massive influence, with early teasers hinting at a sound that echoes the前辈's self-made hustle but amps up the joy factor. It's like remixing classic beats with fresh twists, blending direct challenges to stuffy norms with impulsive, heartfelt emotions that pull in anyone craving a break from the ordinary - a clever nod to BTS's groundbreaking journey of turning personal stories into global anthems that inspire endless creativity and fan loyalty. Creative Hustle: Mastering Beats, Choreo, and Visuals in True DIY Fashion What really makes CORTIS pop is their tag as a "young creator crew" - these guys aren't content with just belting out tunes; they're the full-package bosses handling lyrics, compositions, dance moves, and even video direction for their upcoming debut EP 'Color Outside The Lines,' set to hit on September 8, 2025. Every song on the lineup, from 'GO!' to the official debut 'What You Want' on August 18, plus 'FaSHioN', 'JoyRide', and 'Lullaby', boasts credits from at least three members, turning collaboration into a whirlwind of blended artistry. Leader Martin has already flexed his skills by contributing to label siblings like TXT's 'Deja Vu' and ENHYPEN's 'Outside,' while James choreographed ILLIT's catchy 'Magnetic,' proving their chops go way beyond rookies. This all-in approach mirrors BTS's foundational self-produced mixtapes that laid the groundwork for their empire, but CORTIS dials up the fun with minimalistic beats and explosive sensory vibes that feel fresh and approachable. The 'GO!' visuals, packed with quick edits and off-the-cuff antics, highlight their hands-on magic, making the whole production feel like a group adventure in creativity. Plus, with an English remix of 'What You Want' featuring Teezo Touchdown dropping August 22, they're gearing for international waves right out the gate, much like BTS's smart collabs that bridged cultures and boosted their reach.

BTS advises BIGHIT MUSIC's new boy group CORTIS to be ‘good to people around' and 'no need to be perfect' before debut
6 years after the debut of TOMORROW X TOGETHER and 12 years post BTS, BIGHIT MUSIC is all set to launch its next boy group called CORTIS in the K-pop realm. Another five-piece, much like their predecessors, the team will comprise members Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyeon, and Keonho, ranging from 16 to 19 years old. Opening up about the help they've received from their sunbaes, the boys shared how the iconic septet want them to be kind to others and build upon their experiences from rookie idols to adept ones in the future. BTS wants CORTIS to be humble and adaptive, much like themselves Talking to Rolling Stone about their upcoming highly anticipated debut, CORTIS shared the advice from other HYBE artists or BIGHIT MUSIC artists that has remained with them. As revealed by leader Martin, the seniors from the same label, BTS, who have built themselves up from the bottom, showed their down-to-earth nature once again by saying, ''Do well by the people that you're working with, the staff.' And I feel like that's all that matters. To hit a long run, you've got to be good to the people around you. You've got to show love.' Known to have been some of the kindest artists to work with, the chart-toppers want the same habits to be inculcated in their hoobaes. It seems that the younger ones have taken it in stride, as the oldest member, James, added, 'I think in the end, we make up CORTIS, but at the same time, the staff and everyone included - they're all part of CORTIS. It's all a big team and big family.' That wasn't all, the 12-year professionals took a leaf out of their own growth to enlighten about the fact that debuting is not the end of their K-pop careers, considering how big and difficult that is considered to be. Kickstarting your life as singers in the industry can be the start of something great, and CORTIS needs to evolve over time without trying to attain perfection right from the get-go. CORTIS is all set to debut on August 18 with an album titled COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES.
