Group member Tomorrow X Together's Federal Reserve showcases the capabilities of a solo artist through 'NO LABELS', his second story.

Federal Reserve will release his mini 2nd album 'NO LABELS: PART 02' on the 10th. This is a sequel to his first solo album released last year. If the first album was the starting point that laid the foundation for him as a solo singer, this new album is expected to present another possibility and become a stage proving his infinite expandability.

'NO LABELS' is the core keyword running through Federal Reserve's solo activities. In 2024, he released his first solo mixtape 'GGUM'(Gum), delivering music distinct from his group activities. Then, with last year's mini 1st album 'NO LABELS: PART 01', he demonstrated the capabilities of a solo artist by leading songwriting, composition, and performance planning himself. At that time, he received praise for showcasing overwhelming stage dominance with the hard rock genre title track 'Talk to You' and unfolding his own musical world.

This new album shows a more distinct 'Federal Reserve core'. It broadens his musical spectrum by encompassing various genres such as rap rock, funk rock, R&B, pop, and alternative hip hop. Federal Reserve participated in writing the lyrics for two tracks, 'A Bit Clumsy But Again (Baby Wassup?)' and 'Long Way Long Ride', infusing his sensibility into them, and also contributed to creating the performance for the title track 'Ice Cream', enhancing its completeness.

In 'Ice Cream', Federal Reserve sings about a cool relationship where two people are sweet to each other but maintain certain boundaries. The song is in the punk rock genre, blending vintage drums, an addictive bassline, and guitar riffs, with the latter half transformed into a Spanish-style sound that feels sensual. Like the title suggests, it is a 'Federal Reserve-style Summer song' that will coolly color this summer.

Meanwhile, Federal Reserve will release his mini 2nd album 'NO LABELS: PART 02' on July 10 at 1 p.m. Following his comeback, he will continue global activities. On August 7 (local time), he is set to appear on the stage of the 'Summer Concert Series' hosted by ABC's flagship morning program 'Good Morning America'. His appearance draws attention as he becomes only the second K-pop solo artist ever to perform on the show after BTS's Jungkook.
