Spotify – the world’s most popular audio streaming subscription service – announced that JYP Entertainment latest Kpop girl group, NMIXX, has been selected as the first RADAR KOREA artist of the year.
NMIXX Is Selected as Spotify RADAR KOREA Artist
Selected as the first RADAR KOREA artist of the year, NMIXX is comprised of seven members – LILY, HAEWON, SULLYOON, JINNI, BAE, JIWOO, and KYUJIN – and officially debuted on February 22 by releasing their single “AD MARE” and its lead track “O.O.”
In early February, NMIXX had already unveiled audio liners exclusively on Spotify, greeting their global fans and revealing their music style as well as the messages behind their debut single in multiple languages, including Korean, English, and Spanish.
Spotify plans to support NMIXX’s future moves by launching an active, long-term global marketing campaign encompassing the production of diverse social content. It will also be offering NMIXX the opportunity to produce Spotify Singles, allowing them to re-record one of their existing songs in a fresh new way or cover a song of their choice by one of their own musical heroes.
“We are very excited to have NMIXX, who have created a fresh breeze in the global K-pop scene, join our first RADAR KOREA program of the year. NMIXX is a talented rookie pushing boundaries with their new ‘MIXX POP’ genre through unique voices and sounds, and we are dedicated to supporting them through RADAR, connecting them with more listeners and fans around the globe.”
