The next flaunt of their dance performance abilities was through a series of individual dance covers. Each member performed a different song and choreography to reflect their own style and strengths.

Punchy Raps

On February 7, rappers of the group, JURIN and HARVEY, released a rap cover. They gave a unique performance of “Chill Bill” by Rob $tone featuring J. Davis and Spooks. 

JURIN starts the song strong with a steady rhythm before seamlessly switching languages. When it is HARVEY’s turn, she matches JURIN’s energy and surprises the audience with a brief moment of singing. Both rappers complement each other well and tease their chemistry as a unit.
