KANGDANIEL makes an explosive return with Upside Down on May 24, part of his current album, The Story, with over 12 million views. Following the success of his Color mini-album trilogy, The Story is his first full-length album, with 10 tunes that take listeners on a trip and help them relax. With The Story, the multi-faceted artist has gone all out, with four title songs featuring collaborations with similarly accomplished K-pop musicians. Loser, How We Live, Don’t Tell, and Mad all include Dbo, sokodomo, Jessi, and Chancellor.

The Story is a watershed moment in the artist’s career since it is his first full-length album after almost six years in the business. Furthermore, it comes 13 months after his last release, Yellow, from his Color trilogy, signifying his return to album releases.

With his debut full-length album, The Story, KANGDANIEL hopes to flip the world upside down.

On May 24, CEO, singer-songwriter, MC, and actor KANGDANIEL released his debut full-length album, The Story. The primary title single, Upside Down, was co-written by the Street Woman Fighter host and artists Chancellor and Knave. It’s a medium-tempo song about the challenges of everyday living, produced by Sean Kennedy and MZMC.

When asked about The Story, the 25-year-old soloist said,

“My new album ‘The Story’ has a variety of tales to which you may connect, and I want to convey the stories like a storyteller.” I’d appreciate it if you simply relaxed and enjoyed ‘The Story.’ “I hope you like it!”

The Story is made up of 10 songs, with several artist collaborations serving as title tracks. The Story, Upside Down, Loser (feat. Dbo), Parade, Don’t Tell (feat. Jessi), Ride 4 U, How We Live (feat. sokodomo), Mad (feat. Chancellor), 1000x, and Moment are some of the songs on the album. The 25-year-old even contributed to the composition of all 10 tracks.

Meanwhile, in an interview with MTV News, the idol-host-songwriter discussed the motivation for the full-length album. “This time, it actually seemed like everyone’s tales and all of the stories combined came together via my songs, and it really just blossomed into music, and I guess that simply culminated in the title, The Story.”
