Bang Yongguk co-wrote on lyrics for What the Hell, 전부 거짓 (It's All Lies) and title track Power.

Power peaked at No.2 on the Circle Albums Chart.
Circle Sales = 38,650+
*YouTube views correct at time of writing post*
The M/V for Power has so far gained 17,689,586 million views, with the views still slowly increasing.

Power is set out as a hardback book case with a clear slipcase and comes with the Cd and photobook.

Track List:
Fight For Freedom (Intro)
Power
What the Hell
전부 거짓 (It's All Lies)


























I love the design of the album, and the photo book shows a different side to them compared to their debut, while still trying to keep that cold exterior. Like their debut it's still a pretty simple album concept, which I think allows you to focus more on the actual songs on the album.
The album itself continues to show the potential B.A.P had to make it to new heights that no other group had reached.

Fight For Freedom (Intro) is another great album intro. I love how everything flows throughout, showing how versatile of a group they are.

I love the intro to Power, in fact I love everything about the track itself, the track just flows perfectly from start to finish. This is a song that has stood the test of time and still sounds fresh and new 10 years after it's release. Which shows how unique B.A.P were.

There's certain songs I listen to that make me realise how much I miss B.A.P and What the Hell is one of those songs. I love the music, the vocals and the raps. It's songs like this one that make me wish I found B.A.P when they debuted.
What the Hell

B.A.P have amazing vocalists and rappers within their team and 전부 거짓 (It's All Lies) proves that. This is the perfect song to end the album with as it shows how versatile they really are.

Yet again, even 10 years after release, B.A.P have another release that's aged well and has stood the test of time. The more I listen to their older releases, the more I miss them releasing new music as a group.
The members recently hung out together just before Youngjae enlisted, and it was nice to see the 5 of them together having fun. Now that Yongguk has own own agency/company, I'm hoping he will use it to have B.A.P come back together at some point in the future and release something new, and I hope if that time comes, it allows them to shine more than they did in the past.
