Album Details and Track Highlights
The new album, scheduled for release on September 5 at 1 PM KST across major music platforms, includes six tracks. Ahead of the release, the group shared previews of key songs.
"Drift" is a hip-hop dance track featuring a catchy whistle motif. The lyrics and rapid tempo create an addictive, high-energy vibe that reflects the album's theme of unstoppable momentum.
"Bubble" is another dance track that humorously compares a person's insincerity to a bubble, ready to be burst. The song's melodic balance enhances its playful storytelling.

SM Entertainment released teaser images showing Winter wielding an electric guitar and Giselle on bass, hinting at the group's band positions. Karina will take on vocals and drums, while Ningning handles the synthesizer, signaling a bold and dynamic image shift.
The title track, "Rich Man," combines aggressive electric guitar riffs with dance rhythms. Its addictive topline blends seamlessly with the members' vocals to deliver a powerful performance energy.
