Young Posse (Korean: 영파씨; RR: Yeongpassi; stylized in all caps) is a South Korean girl group under DSP Media and co-produced by Beats Entertainment, an independent record label. The group consists of members Sunhye, Yeonjung, Jiana, Doeun, and Jieun. They made their debut on October 18, 2023, with the extended play Macaroni Cheese.
Name
[edit]The name Young Posse is derived from the Latin word "posse" which means "be able to". Together, the name represents "a young group (of girls) gathered together with a purpose".[1]
History
[edit]2023–present: Debut with Macaroni Cheese
[edit]On June 22, 2023, DSP Media announced the debut of a new five-member girl group in collaboration with Beats Entertainment around the second half of the year, their first girl group since April (2015).[2] The name of the group, Young Posse, was revealed on July 12.[3] The group then appeared at the label concert of RBW, DSP's parent company, on July 16.[4] On September 19, a teaser video for the group's debut was released.[5] The group released their debut EP Macaroni Cheese along with the music video for the lead single of the same name on October 18.[6]
On February 4, 2024, Young Posse released the digital single "Young Posse Up" - a remix of the track "Posse Up!" from their first EP Macaroni Cheese.[7] The remix involved the likes of NSW Yoon, Token and Verbal Jint. On March 20, Young Posse released their second EP XXL along with the lead single of the same name.[8][9] The group's third EP, Ate That, was released on August 21.[10] On October 18, the group released their first remix album, titled We Still Loading, to commemorate their first anniversary since debut.[11] The remix album is led by the single of the same name, which is a remixed version of the track "Loading..." from the group's third EP Ate That, and also includes the instrumental versions of the group's previously released singles.[11] Young Posse will be releasing the digital single "Street Carol" (ㄱㅓ리에서) with John Park on December 13.[12] The track "Santa Claus is Coming to Hood", originally planned to be included as part of a double title track for the single, was scrapped on December 9 as a response to fans' criticisms.[13]
