San releases first solo album “Is This Love?″

Alien’s San has dropped his first full-length solo album! San has previously released two solo digital singles through Dimensions Portal, “Eat” and “Yanghwa BRDG”, but this album marks his spot as the first Alien member to make a solo debut since their debut in 2012.

Is This Love? is a twelve track album. Most of the album takes on an exploration of various R&B styles, from more traditional takes to more modern interpretations of the genre, and makes use of both San’s vocal prowess and his rapping ability. The track list features collaborations with several other idols: CHARM’s Sirius on “Stay Up”, Lipstick’s Sowon on “R.O.D”, and Silhouette’s Youngjoo on “Without You”. San has lyric and production credits on seven of the album’s twelve tracks. Silhouette’s Youngjoo is listed as one of the composers for “Who, You?”, while Knight’s Taeyong has lyrics, music, and production credits on “Betcha” and “Ice Queen”, as well a working with San on the lyrics and production of "UN Village” and “Stay Up”.

The album’s promoted single will be “UN Village”, a slick and sophisticated alt-R&B track. The song will be promoted for two weeks on music shows, and b-side track “Think About You” will be staged solo for the first week of his music show promotions.

Check out the track list and notable song credits below!

San releases second solo album “A Song Too Late″

Alien’s San has dropped his second full-length solo album! The lead vocal and rapper made his solo debut exactly a year ago with the release of his first solo album Is This Love?. Since then, the idol has released two Portal singles to round out his total appearances on the project to four and held his first solo concert. Now, San leaves behind the questioning romance of Is This Love? for the more regretful A Song Too Late.

Twelve tracks make up A Song Too Late’s runtime, the same number as San delivered for his first album. This Time, San enters the album on the receiving end of an unrequited love with ‘Excuses” and as the album progresses, emotions of heartbreak, sorrow, anger, and obsession are explored. A number of features appear on the album: Knight’s Duri providing vocals for “Baby Good Night”, Dimensions Entertainment soloist Alex appearing on “Snow, Fuse’s Minjung on “Missing You”, and Silhouette’s Youngjoo on “Why”. All four features appear in the albums credits as well, with Knight’s Duri providing “Coming Home”’s lyrics, Fuse’s Minjung helping to craft “Baby Good Night”, “Missing You”, and “That XX”, Alex contributing to the lyrics and producing the song he appears on, and Silhouette’s Youngjoo also helping to write the lyrics of the song she’s featured on. San himself was involved in the creative credits of the album in the areas of lyrics and production on several of the album’s songs.

"That XX” is a guitar ballad from the perspective of a man heartbroken because the object of his affection remains with a man unworthy of her. “That XX” will be promoted for three weeks on music shows and b-side track “No Shadow” will be performed solo as an auxiliary stage for the first week of promotions.
