Girl group MEOVV go into beast mode with their second mini-album, ‘BITE NOW.’
The strikingly bold five-song set is unlike anything we’ve heard yet from the quintet, embodying reinvention and ascension as MEOVV evolve into their true form driven by unyielding grit and unwavering resolve. That awakening is especially clear in the dramatic single “DDI RO RI” and its eye-popping music video.
The title of “DDI RO RI” is an onomatopoeic nod to one of the track’s most stunning features: the iconic organ blast of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor. That timeless explosion of gothic grandeur is paired with a Brooklyn drill beat and MEOVV’s enthralling vocals to create a moment that’s both high class and high impact.
When they declare “You know I’m the blueprint, I be on that new sh*t,” there’s no room for doubt. The opulence of the classical music juxtaposed against modern sounds and situations builds relentless tension, underscoring the group’s visceral ambition. As they sing in the cut’s opening bars, “What’s the deal? This is the start, I feel arenas / Shout my name from Korea out to Ibiza.”
“DDI RO RI” was co-written by MEOVV members NARIN, ELLA, and GAWON alongside THEBLACKLABEL founder TEDDY with Kaine, lil aaron, KUSH, Vince, Dominsuk, Zikai, and DCF, and writer-producers 24 and Dominsuk. NARIN, ELLA, and GAWON also co-wrote “In My Hands,” while NARIN and GAWON co-wrote “Favorite Song” and “Revenge.”
On ‘BITE NOW,’ MEOVV sink their teeth into fans with an array of moods and modes that combine to form the group’s utterly unique musical universe. “Hit ’Em” is dark and propulsive, unable to be ignored. “In My Hands” combines a huge EDM sound with emotive vocals and an ecstatic hook: “Got the world in my hands.” The aptly titled “Favorite Song” finds strength in restraint, carving out a guitar-led soul-pop groove. And the closer “Revenge” is a lush and eerily dreamy expression of alt-R&B that captures the conflict of a relationship that can’t be escaped even when all parties know it’s not going to end well.
Meanwhile, MEOVV closed out 2025 with the fiery banger “BURNING UP,” capturing their relentless determination following a string of early milestones. Shortly after dropping “MY EYES OPEN VVIDE,” the multinational group released their first Japanese single, “ME ME ME,” in partnership with cosmetic brand KAO.
