Group Curtis (Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Sung-hyun, Geon-ho) has released a surprise new song in collaboration with hip-hop legend Juicy J.

Curtis announced the digital single 'MOTION (feat. Juicy J)', featuring hip-hop artist Juicy J, on July 31 at 1 p.m. This track, released after their mini 2nd album 'GREENGREEN', comes ahead of their North American tour next month and performances at U.S. music festivals.

'MOTION (feat. Juicy J)' was created through a collaboration between Curtis and Juicy J, reinterpreting the 'Memphis' sound, one of the major subgenres of 1990s Southern hip-hop in the United States. The song is characterized by its repeating beats, hooks, and rap flow, with Curtis participating in both lyrics and composition.

The title 'MOTION' signifies the first step onto a larger stage. The lyrics convey a message of venturing into an unfamiliar world beyond generational and cultural boundaries. Curtis is set to embark on their North American tour, '2026 CORTIS TOUR <PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN> IN NORTH AMERICA', from August 4 to 16 (local time).

Martin listened to Juicy J and his hip-hop group Three 6 Mafia's music during his childhood, and later became a member of Curtis, eventually performing songs with Juicy J. Curtis stated, "Working with Juicy J was not merely a meeting but a process of understanding and respecting each other's music over a long period, building deep trust." They added, "This song is presented with affection within a relationship that has been consistently maintained since before their debut."

Curtis will also take the stage at the U.S. music festival 'Lollapalooza Chicago' on August 1 (local time). The performance will be available for live streaming via global superfan platform Weverse and other channels starting at 5:05 a.m. Korean time on the following day, the 2nd, lasting for 50 minutes. Curtis is the only K-pop boy group to be included in this year's Lollapalooza Chicago lineup.
