Girl Group 2NE1 will also debut next year in Japan.
YG Entertainment Agency representative, Yang Hyun Suk, revealed on the 18th, "On September 9, 2NE1 will release their full studio album," he said, "There's a total of 12 songs, and the name of the album will be 2NE1 "To Anyone" with six new songs, with the four previously released solo single tracks, and two bonus tracks."
CEO Yang Hyun Suk continues, "In the past months, 2NE1 has been collaborating with Black Eyed Peas leader and music producer, Will.I.Am. After seeing 2NE1's MV. Will.I.Am said that he wanted to take part of the music production of 2NE1's American Debut.
"To make 2NE1 and Will.I.Am's Musical collaboration work, they had to go to places such as LA and London, a total of three times over three weeks, to record about 10 songs, to finish their recording for the album," he said, "With a US debut album in mind, 2NE1 has done a pretty good job recording in English, since three members are already fluent in English, and the recording process went even easier than I thought," he said.
He also says, "So far, there has been no concrete plans and a decision has not yet been made for 2NE1 to advance in the US. Since Black Eyed Peas are doing a world tour and also their new album, and because Will.I.Am wants to be a key person in 2NE1's debut in the United States, then a debut within this year would be unlikely. But 2NE1 will avoid doing advanced promotions and a long stay in the United States, since they have received much love and support locally."
Yang Hyun Suk says this upon issues regarding the girls promoting abroad, especially in the US and Japan, "2NE1 has received lots of love for their domestic activities, so they won't be neglecting their activities in Korea. But they will debut in Japan early next year, and at the same time, we are already planning activities for them to promote in 3 countries at the same time, with parallel concepts."
