In this episode of Anatomy of a Song, I'm breaking down two of the biggest 5th-gen boy group releases: BOYNEXTDOOR’s “Hollywood Action” and RIIZE’s “FAME.”

Even though neither song made my Top 30 list last year, both are important pieces of the 5th-gen puzzle sonically, visually, and conceptually. I’ll dig into what each track tries to do, what works, what doesn’t, and how they reflect the musical identities these groups are building.
