XG unveils new single ‘DEPENDS,’ launches members’ individual Instagram accounts
XG is back with their latest single “DEPENDS” alongside the official music video.
Drawing on late 2000s and early 2010s electropop with R&B emotion, “DEPENDS” delivers layered vocals and shifting flows. At its core, the track suggests that emotions and decisions rarely fall into simple “yes” or “no.”
“DEPENDS” combines late 2000s and early 2010s electropop with R&B influences, featuring layered harmonies and changing flows. It is about pushing forward without all the answers, turning that uncertainty into “It depends.” The video mirrors XG’s own journey, as the members step past the camera and move through one new world after another.
The music video features seven colorful creatures, each representing a member of XG. The members start in colorful 1980s-inspired looks, then shift to 1990s R&B and street style with bold animal and plant motifs that spotlight each member. A dance break fueled by 2000s R&B and electropop ties it together.
“DEPENDS” arrives alongside “S.A.D,” which pairs early 2000s R&B with a modern rhythm section and nostalgic harp melody. The track delves into feelings of sadness without labeling it as weakness or strength.
For the first time on November 5, XG performed “DEPENDS” live during their “XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE” concert at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
The group has also revealed the identities behind seven Instagram accounts, which is followed by their official Instagram account (@xgofficial). It turns out that the accounts belong to the individual members.
