[Los Angeles, CA – October 10, 2024] Today, rising K-Pop sensation RIIZE, alongside renowned composer and producer KENZIE, releases their latest track “Memories (KENZIE RE:WORKS)” out now via SM Entertainment/RCA Records – listen here and watch here.
The new reinterpreted track, “Memories (KENZIE RE:WORKS),” takes on a dream pop vibe infused with a nostalgic, vintage feel. Its layered intro invites a deeper connection, evoking warmth through immersive sounds. The release comes a month after their anniversary of their debut and follows the release of “Combo” and RIIZING – The 1st Mini Album.
With over 132 million streams worldwide, RIIZE continues to take the industry by storm. In their first year, they signed with RCA Records ahead of their debut and became a ‘million-seller’ in their first week with the single “Get A Guitar.” Within three months, they were named house ambassadors for Louis Vuitton.
Since then, RIIZE has achieved several milestones: they became the first K-pop group to perform at Mexico City’s largest pop music festival, Tecate Emblema; performed at the Dodgers’ Korean Heritage Night; received a certification from LA City Hall; and completed their first US digital cover with Billboard in anticipation of their debut mini-album, RIIZING. Most recently, they wrapped up their first fan-con world tour, RIIZING DAY, with the finale streamed live in cinemas around the world.
Focusing on authenticity and relatability, RIIZE forges a deep connection with their ever-growing fanbase by sharing their down-to-earth personalities and humble moments at the start of their new journey. The group name RIIZE combines two words – “rise,” symbolizing growth, and “realize,” representing achievements – which together encapsulate the idea of a team that grows as one while achieving their dreams. The exceptional members all possess both talent and visual appeal. With each member bringing their own unique characteristics and strengths, they embark on a real-time odyssey as one team to make new history in the K-Pop industry.
Stay tuned for more from RIIZE as they continue to develop and craft a style of their own.
