Steadily climbing the charts since the late 2010s, K-pop group
ITZY
made a big splash with their fifth EP
Checkmate
. Their fourth Korean number one and the first to break into the U.S. Top Ten, the set was also their best-selling effort in their home country to date. The bubble-pop lead single "Sneakers" blended breezy cuteness with a rousing, stadium-sized singalong chorus;
even included an English version of the track. Elsewhere, the edgy, trap-influenced "Racer," "Free Fall," and "365" add some danger to the mix. The closest they come to a ballad is on "Domino," but the track is so swelling and feel-good that it never seems sleepy.
may only be seven tracks long, but it's packed with enough energy and charm for a full LP. ~ Neil Z. Yeung
