The lead single ‘singasong’ was co-composed by German DJ and producer Mechatok alongside Vernon and The8. The track blends bubblegum pop, hyperpop, and dance-pop elements, with future bass tones at its climax. The music video for ‘singasong’ features Vernon and The8 performing choreography and is set against futuristic visuals including flying cars, exploding colours, running horses, and video game sequences.

The V8 album features eight tracks: ‘singasong’, ‘Friend’, ‘Beat’, ‘Mia’, ‘Coloring’, ‘girlsnboys’, ‘8DM’, and the digital-only track ‘rat race’. The track ‘girlsnboys’ is written, composed, and produced by 14-time Grammy Award winner Pharrell Williams, with longtime Seventeen collaborator and producer Bumzu also contributing.

V8 will hold standalone concerts on July 11 and 12 at the KINTEX convention center in Goyang, South Korea, marking the first Seventeen unit show to adopt a standing format. The pair will also perform in Hong Kong from July 17 to 19.
