On November 18, JURIN of Hiphop/R&B-inspired girl group XG released her solo debut single under the name JURIN ASAYA, titled “PS118 (feat. Rapsody)”, along with its music video on YouTube.
“PS118 (feat. Rapsody)” portrays JURIN’s evolution and sense of self as she navigates an infinite universe. The song captures her strength in following her own direction and rhythm without being swayed by outside perspectives. Her piercing rap delivery blends with a beat that echoes the vastness of space, expanding her presence like a galaxy.
Featured on the track is Grammy-winning rapper Rapsody, known for her lyrical realism and rooted in old-school hip-hop. Together, their verses create a dynamic synergy, two distinct voices overlapping like a cosmic nebula, forming a resonant collaboration that transcends generations and borders.
This marks XG’s first solo release by a member and their first official featured collaboration. The track preserves the essence of X-POP while diving deeper into a rawer, more grounded hip-hop landscape. It showcases a new side of the group’s creative vision without straying from their core identity. The release hints at fresh possibilities for both XGALX and JURIN ASAYA.
With their debut full-length album THE CORE – 核 set to drop on Friday, January 23, followed by their second world tour XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE kicking off in February, XG’s momentum shows no sign of slowing. All eyes will be on the group’s continued rise—and on the individual paths each member begins to carve out.
