(Isstories Editorial):- Seoul, South Korea Jan 15, 2026 (Issuewire.com) – Rookie KPOP powerhouse idntt launched their debut EP on January 5, 2026, with the ambitious lead single “Pretty Boy Swag.” The track arrives as the second major release from the innovative 24-member boy band project and marks the unit’s introduction to global audiences.

“Pretty Boy Swag” is a mid-tempo funk track driven by old-school hip-hop beats and splashes of brass. The production, layers R&B influences with pop-rock energy to create a maximalist sound that feels fresh yet rooted in classic hip-hop aesthetics.

The song anchors itself in a chant-hook structure that builds throughout the track. Rather than relying on traditional melodies, yesweare delivers rhythmic vocal assertions that create momentum and swagger. The chorus refrain “Pretty Boy Swag, we move like that” becomes an infectious, street-battle-ready hook that dominates the production.
