So wait, one of the four 5 remaining tracks on the album is just another version of one of the other tracks?

Not YG using the coincidence of CL's impending birthday to cover the fact he's clearly delaying because he's thirsty for that girl group war and is waiting to see whether SM do decide to drop MrMr.

[Belle]

He's so lucky that the YG office is gated, otherwise

[GoldFangs]

what kind of lucky (sweet) escape? Her birthday.

[Jack!]

So basically 8 new songs, Scream (Korean Version) and an acoustic version? That's not too bad. Just hope Missing You/Falling in Love/Do You Love Me don't make it and take up space.

What i thought we're getting 9 new songs?

Dear YG



I don't believe anything he says this time. Give us the album already.

[Belle]

- Come Back Home
- Gotta Be You
- HAPPY
- CL Track 1
- CL Track 2
- CL Track 3
- Scream (Kor)
- Come Back Home Acoustic
= 8 tracks, 7 in a dream scenario where the acoustic is a bonus

which leaves either 3 "new" tracks or some combination of
- FIL
- DYLM
- ILY
- Missing You

or, dream scenario, 10 totally new tracks + the singles & acoustic as a physical only bonus?

They won't, he said in the first address that it would be all new songs other than the "previously released Japanese song". I mean, I know it's YG but they would have basically finished the album by then so I doubt he's lying.

Edit: Where's everyone getting 8 songs from?

Have we learned nothing by now? That man is the Korean equivalent of Pinocchio. Watch the 4 new songs be leftovers from To Anyone

[Belle]

9 songs + Scream KOR + Acoustic = 11 tracks
9 songs + Scream KOR + Acoustic + 4 singles = 15 tracks which is doubtful but hypothetically possible since it's still not anywhere near 80 minutes (CD length maximum)

The album was first intended for release in 2012. Since then I'm sure there've been countless occasions where a 2NE1 album has been "finished" but releasing said album is always another matter when it comes to YG. Taeyang finished his in time for his previously scheduled November release and yet here we are with nothing.

[Belle]

I have no doubt in my mind that it's still going to be released, it's just a matter of how half-assed the tracklisting is at this point. He's gone further than he did with Taeyang and all the other projects - all that's left is cutting corners, not avoiding them entirely.

I know YG is a mess, albeit more of a joke at this point, but still they've never gone anywhere near this far with 2NE1's album, so it feels like they've reached the event horizon in a sense.

Sure 2NE1 and Taeyang have been due albums for minimum 2 years now, but they were never formally announced, just speculated to be in the works. I'm not trying to defend YG but through the numerous delays he never once set a date for them to be released.

Something about this just feels a little different, idk.

Exactly! Like he might **** it up a bit, but 2NE1's album is coming soon, whether this month, next month or the month after. They've been given a release date, Taeyang never was. I doubt he'll just decide not to release CRUSH at this point.

[Belle]

He never got into tracklistings and specific titles with Taeyang.

I find hope in this. Around 50 mins.
Literally so close.
He stays messing w/ this release a week prior to what had already been planned .

[Belle]

yeah wait if the physical copies are supposed to be out on the 28th how is it that he's.....................-_- I'm gonna have a heart attack thinking about this

The offline album will be released on March 7th as planned.

[Belle]

nnnn okay right

[Callum]

I dunno where he's getting "as planned" from. Did he delay the physical release before this specific update? Or has he just slid that in hoping that nobody will notice it's actually been set back too?
