BABYMONSTER’s “WE GO UP” MV review

The six-member configuration showcases sharper edges and tighter hooks.

BABYMONSTER's "WE GO UP" MV review

BABYMONSTER’s “WE GO UP” dropped on October 10, 2025, marking their return with a hip-hop-driven sound that feels more unified than previous releases. 

The title track, which shares its name with the mini-album, opens with a declaration of intent and maintains that energy throughout its runtime.

The first voice sets the tone in one breath: “Yeah, this ain’t a game and you know we don’t play.”

The video opens like a rooftop showdown, BABYMONSTER’s name lit across neighboring towers, then a straight-to-camera drop-in that reads like a superhero landing. 

From there, the edit snaps between group hits and solo moments built to make the hook ricochet.

Set pieces lean action film. There is a katana and mask in one fight beat, an arrow split on impact, a quick sniper-rifle build, and even a cybernetic arm reveal before the chorus slams back in. 

The floor fractures underfoot and wind surges through the shot, punctuating the chant sections that are designed for call-and-response.

It’s all forward motion with the Kick-heavy groove, clean space around the leads so ad-libs snap on the downbeat, and a chorus that brands itself by spelling the name: “B-A-B-Y-M-O-N, we up, up, up.”

Verses carry clipped flexes, then the bridge stacks lines that read like a pledge: “우린 판을 바꿀 game changer… Bet you never met a monster like me… we gon’ make history.” 

Parts feel assigned with purpose. Tighter rap phrasing opens the door, brighter belts lift the pre-chorus, and a late run lands as release rather than garnish.

The MV premiered with the single on the official channel. Promotions continue as six while Rami remains on a health hiatus set out earlier in the year.

Rather than attempting to obscure this, the visual simply focuses on delivering a complete performance with the current lineup.

What distinguishes “WE GO UP” from BABYMONSTER’s earlier work is its commitment to a single sonic direction. 

Previous releases toggled between genres, sometimes within the same song. This track maintains its hip-hop foundation from start to finish, suggesting a clearer artistic identity for the group.

The question is whether this approach will define their future releases or serve as one experiment among many. 

For now, “WE GO UP” works as a confident statement that knows exactly what it wants to be.
