"Batter Up" is a song by South Korean girl group BabyMonster. It was released on November 27, 2023, by YG Entertainment, as the group's debut single. 

 

On November 10, after the supposed debut month, YG Entertainment confirmed a debut date of November 27.[4] Ten days later, the digital single "Batter Up" was announced as BabyMonster's debut release.[5] On November 24, the teaser for the music video was released.[6]

Quote

Yoo Ji-hee from Daily Sports expressed that the group failed to establish a clear identity apart from their labelmate seniors 2NE1 and Blackpink, and wrote how the song evokes "a familiar taste, but it's not enough to really grab you."[10] Rhian Daily from NME rated the song two out of five stars, calling it "a tired formula" with "lazy songwriting" and commented "Even in the moments that are clearly designed to be the track's earworm moments, it feels weak and leaves no lasting impression."[9]

Batter up is their debut single and is also a flop :cm:

BabyMons7er is their 1st album after multiple releases and months or years building hype and promoting on social media with a million Youtube ads and videos. s:wan:

It's not their debut, it's a comeback. :cm:

It's considered their debut album even if it's a comeback

In terms of building a fanbase and counting sales, it's not their 1st release and that explains why their sales are high, as I anticipated it.

Comparing the sales of an album that dropped on the very 1st day of a group debut, to the sales of an album that dropped at some point in the group career after they debuted, while not technically incorrect, is misleading at best. :celestial5:

Blinks gaslighting everyone that Batter Up doesn't exist is the kii :bibliahh:

Truly the most deranged fandom, always with the lies and the fake news.

Batter Up exists but it's not their official debut and theyre not even the first kpop group to have a predebut single

look at VCHA with like 4 singles before their official debut Girls of the Year

It technically is, view Batter Up & What other song as pre-release... 

 

Just like Purple Kiss had this roll out as pre-release/pre-debut

 

 

But this as the debut

If I'm new and I'm the only one who knows how to read and use logic to anticipate high sales, what does that make you and everyone else? Brain rot for real. :clack:

Why IVE Switch is distributed on a random London shop with 2 followers instead of Target and Walmart :rip:

It's charting top50 globally and top200 US

 

except for JK (and Lisa to a far lesser extend with money), every ksoloist's big records were fan driven globally. So yes, it's not the same as JK, but no one is doing it like him? You could probably extend this fact to 99% of kpop songs as well.

No because even if most of the other idols don't have 1/3 of his records globally, at least their songs are remembered, which will not be Jimin case.
