Mamamoo (Korean: 마마무; Japanese: ママム; commonly stylized in all caps) is a South Korean girl group formed and managed by RBW. The group is composed of four members: Solar, Moonbyul, Wheein, and Hwasa. Known for their strong live vocals, harmonies, and writing much of their material, they are recognized as one of the premier girl groups in K-pop.[2][3] They are highly regarded in the industry for their talent and ability to cross multiple genres with their music; from retro, jazz, and R&B concepts in their early years[4] to more contemporary hip-hop,[5] as well as emotional ballads.[6][7] Since their debut in 2014, they have been noted for challenging conventional beauty standards, breaking gender stereotypes, and conducting themselves in ways that most typical K-pop stars do not.[8][9][10][11]

Mamamoo officially debuted on June 18, 2014, with their first extended play (EP) Hello, featuring the lead single "Mr. Ambiguous". Their debut was considered by critics as one of the best K-pop debuts of 2014.[12][13] Mamamoo rose to domestic fame in 2015 with their single "Um Oh Ah Yeah" which became a sleeper hit and peaked at number three on South Korea's Gaon Digital Chart. Combined with their many appearances and victories in the popular music competition program Immortal Songs, this launched them into mainstream recognition with the public.[14] Their following release of "You're the Best" (2016) from their debut studio album Melting, proved to be a commercial success, and dominated at least eight major music sites upon release,[15] further cementing their popularity and growing momentum. In 2017, they made a splash on the international scene with their fifth EP, Purple. Its lead single "Yes I Am," earned them their first number one on the Billboard World Albums chart.[16]

The quartet went on to achieve consecutive hits with the high-charting singles "Starry Night" (2018), "Egotistic" (2018), "Gogobebe" (2019), from their "Four Seasons, Four Colors" project whereby every member took turns in becoming the focus for each album.[17] This culminated in their biggest international success to date, "HIP" from their second studio album Reality in Black becoming a number-one hit on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart.[18] In November 2020, the song was certified platinum by the Korea Music & Content Association (KMCA) for surpassing 100 million streams, making it their third time achieving this feat.[19] They also earned a gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ), indicating their breakthrough in the Japanese music scene.[20]

Mamamoo has received numerous accolades, most notably the Golden Disc Award for Best Group, the Mnet Asian Music Award for Best Vocal Group, multiple honors at the Seoul Music Awards, as well as the Gaon Chart Music Award for New Artist of the Year in their rookie year.

History

[edit]

2014–2015: Formation, debut and rising popularity

[edit]

The group's name "Mamamoo" is intended to symbolise a baby babbling for the first time. This is because they aim to make music that would be familiar to everyone around the world like the word "mama" that babies would commonly first learn and speak of, as well as the added meaning of approaching their listeners instinctively with their music.[21]

Prior to their official debut, Mamamoo collaborated with several artists. Their first collaboration, titled "Don't Be Happy" with Bumkey was released on January 8, 2014.[22][23][unreliable source?] A second collaboration with K.Will titled "Peppermint Chocolate" featuring Wheesung was released on February 11, 2014.[24] "Peppermint Chocolate" debuted at number 11 on the Gaon Digital Chart in its first week.[25][26] On May 30, 2014, Mamamoo released a collaboration single called "HeeHeeHaHeHo" with rap duo Geeks.[27]

The group made their official debut on June 18, 2014, with the lead single "Mr. Ambiguous" from their first extended play (EP) Hello. The music video for "Mr. Ambiguous" contained cameo appearances from many well-known K-pop industry figures such as CNBLUE's Jonghyun, Baek Ji-young, Wheesung, Jung Joon-young, Bumkey, K.Will, and Rhymer of Brand New Music.[28][29] The album contained three previously released collaborations and four new songs.[30][unreliable source?] The group made their first live appearance on the June 19 episode of M Countdown.[31] In July 2014, Mamamoo released their first original soundtrack contribution titled "Love Lane" for the Korean drama Marriage, Not Dating.[32]

On August 29, 2015, Mamamoo returned to Immortal Song 2 with a rendition of Jo Young-nam's "Delilah".[44][unreliable source?] On October 31, 2015, Mamamoo returned to the Immortal Song 2, singing a rendition of Korean trot singer Bae Ho's song "Backwood's Mountain" (두메산골).

2020: Focus on members' solo activities and Travel

[edit]

He reflected on the successes of Mamamoo's participation on Queendom and their second Korean studio album Reality in Black and confirmed that the members would begin to focus on solo projects, with each member hoping to showcase their individualities that they had previously shown in the "Four Seasons, Four Colors" project series.[134][135] Moonbyul became the first member to release a solo project in 2020, releasing her debut EP Dark Side of the Moon on February 14.[136] On April 23, Solar released her debut single "Spit It Out" and its accompanying single album.[137] Following the single's debut at number 12 (and subsequent peak at number six), Mamamoo became the second Korean group in which every member had a solo song chart on the Billboard's World Digital Song Sales chart.[138]

The full EP, titled Travel, and its second single, "Aya", were released on November 3.[146][147] Travel received mixed receptions for its lack of cohesion,[148] and it peaked at number two on the Gaon Album Chart.[149] The EP broke the group's personal sales records, selling a reported 100,000 copies in its first day and over 128,000 copies in its first week,[150][unreliable source?] and additionally topped iTunes charts in 29 countries.[151][unreliable source?] Described as a "180-degree flip" from the retro-pop style of "Dingga," the second single from Travel, "Aya," was described by critics as being "alluring" and "captivating"[152][unreliable source?] and peaked within the top 40 of the Gaon Digital Chart.[153]
