While not a full-out banger, iKON’s second video for their debut is much more in line with what a lot of people expected from them to begin with.  Sampling the YG Family classic Hip Hop Gentlemen (or Fly Gentlemen as we came to know it back in the day), the new track takes on some of the “why are so many other idols so lame” beats from the original and repurposes it with some #humblebrag for a new generation.  There’s not a lot of hip-hop posturing in the lyrics (which, admittedly, can be hard to buy from some of K-rappers who don’t have the life experiences to back that up) and are pretty basic, but they make up for it in flow and delivery.  While we wanted some more up-tempo, this will do until the next half of the album comes out.

The video also takes some visual cues from Hip Hop Gentlemen, which gives those on the know a nostalgic feeling when watching.

Lyrics:
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
This is just a song so get on the rhythm
(Bounce) get on the rhythm
(Bounce) get on the rhythm
(Bounce) get on the rhythm
This is just a song so get on the rhythm

What’re you doing? Hurry and nod your head
Hurry and twist your chest and waist
We’re not picky, for example, a time and place
We don’t try to act cool, for example, idols these days
We’re having fun, what other reason do you need?
This is just a good, typical song to get on the rhythm
If you wanna put on a title on it, it’ll be a compliment
Cuz once this song is on, even the whales dance

yeah come and get it, gather round, men, women, old and young
The music is playing, everyone is humming along ladi dadi
Tonight, get ready to die yeah die yeah

Time is like looking at gold like it’s a valueless stone
Don’t act like you’re a hotshot, I know you wanna play
woo, hum along ladi dadi, everyone move your body

Rhythm ta, rhythm ta, rhythm ta
This is just a song so get on the rhythm

We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
This is just a song so get on the rhythm

What’re you doing? Hurry and nod your head
This isn’t a chance that comes every day
If you miss it, you might regret it
You’ll regret regretting it
If you don’t wanna regret
Don’t regret the things you’re gonna regret before you regret it

Oh yeah right? Get on the rhythm
Come on, jump around with me, get on the rhythm
Put it up on UCC, your shaking body
Eight measures so it’s perfect to dance to
There’s no meaning, just like a summer vacation plan

yeah come and get it, gather round, men, women, old and young
The music is playing, everyone is humming along ladi dadi
Tonight, get ready to die yeah die yeah

Time is like looking at gold like it’s a valueless stone
Don’t act like you’re a hotshot, I know you wanna play
woo, hum along ladi dadi, everyone move your body

Rhythm ta, rhythm ta, rhythm ta
This is just a song so get on the rhythm

We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
This is just a song so get on the rhythm

Everyone nod your head
Link arms and shake it
Everyone shake it together
We’re a bit delinquent

Turn up the volume
Put your body into the rhythm
Everyone shake it together
We’re a bit delinquent

Rhythm ta

Da na na na na na na
Da na na na na na na
Da na na na na na na

This is just a song so get on the rhythm

We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it
We gon get it pop it
we gon we gon get it pop it

This is just a song so get on the rhythm
