Produced by the power duo of SUNNY BOY and Maxx Song, “Scream” is an intense, exhilarating dance track that shows a challenging new side of BE:FIRST. SUNNY BOY is known for songs for artists including SKY-HI, BTS, BLACKPINK, BIGBANG, 2NE1, Namie Amuro and Daichi Miura while Song is a producer behind several K-pop artists and groups including BoA, Red Velvet and TWICE.

“Scream” features lyrics by SKY-HI that proclaims the dawn of a new era, perfectly fitting for the lead single from BE: FIRST’S album “BE:1”. The song’s music video is based on the idea of returning to the new normal in a world where self-restraint and other limitations still continue.

The “Scream” music video interprets the title as a thirst for liberation and energy with visuals that show the catharsis of loudly screaming one’s desires. It features the story of the BE:FIRST members overcoming the oppressive world of walls, rules and fear to face the future and advance to the highest stage.

s**t kingz member Kazuki choreographed the dance elements for the music video. He took first place in the leading U.S. dance contest BODY ROCK in 2010 and 2011.
