Guess who’s back? If you guessed SEVENTEEN, then you are correct. The performance kings are back with SEVENTEEN BEST ALBUM ’17 IS RIGHT HERE.’ And we gotta agree with the album name because it is their best album yet. Not only because it gave us four new bangers but also because it has a lot of our older faves on the track list as well. Such as ‘Home,’ ‘Don’t Wanna Cry,’ and ‘Fallin’ Flower.’ But speaking of the track list, this album has 33 freaking songs on it! At first, we couldn’t believe it, but then we thought about it, and if we had picked the track list, it would’ve been a lot longer.
“Who is the real Maestro?”
Okay, so as we mentioned, the album has some new tracks that include the leading track, ‘MAESTRO,’ and y’all, this was the perfect track to feature for this new era of SEVENTEEN. This track is phenomenal, from the beginning piano to the heavy metronome beat. The track celebrates a new sound while not forgetting about their older tracks. As a matter of fact, right from the beginning, you can hear some of their past tracks, such as the others on the track list. You have to keep an ear out for the instrumentals; some of the tracks jump right out of you, and some are mixed in with other tracks. Woozi and SEVENTEEN are simply geniuses when it comes to music. This is why we also love the idea of ‘MAESTRO’ being their leading track because we wholeheartedly believe they are some of the best when it comes to making music. And if you know anything about SVT, you know they’ve always had a hand in making their own music.
We highly recommend checking out the MV, as we think it’s probably their coolest to date. They have such cool hairstyles, outfits, dance moves, and, honestly, the coolest backgrounds. From the MV, our favorite part has to be the dance break with both the metronome in the track and the big one behind them while they are dancing. Look, as former band kids ourselves, we can’t help but geek out anytime we see a metronome. But SEVENTEEN also gets to show off the incredible dance skills that they are well known for.
Apart from ‘MAESTRO,’ we also got three other new tracks, ‘LALALI,’ from the Hip-Hop Unit, ‘Spell’ from the Performance Unit, and ‘Cheers to youth’ from the Vocal Unit. And in usual SEVENTEEN fashion, they smashed each of them. ‘LALALI’ perfectly follows the fast beat of ‘MAESTRO,’ ‘Spell’ reminds us so much of ‘MOONWALKER‘ and ‘Cheers to youth’ reminds us of every soft and sweet SVT track we love. We also have some new versions of all of our and your older faves; don’t forget to check those out as well!
SVT IS RIGHT HERE has to be one of our favorite K-POP albums so far this year, and ‘MAESTRO’ is most definitely in the lead for SOTY, it’s literally so addicting. We can’t wait to see it live, so we are crossing our fingers that there will be a tour in the future, specifically with our city as one of the stops. Make sure you stream 17 IS RIGHT HERE in its entirety…right here.
