Updated: 4 days ago
⋆ Korean Title: A little clumsy, but again (Baby wassup?)
⋆ Genre: Contemporary R&B
⋆ Producing Credits: Ojivolta, Pdogg
⋆ Writing/Composing Credits: Raul Cubina, Mark Williams, Pdogg, Beau Nox, Yeonjun
ABOUT/MEANING: “Baby Wassup?” captures the vulnerable moment before expressing feelings to someone you like. Yeonjun conceived the song by imagining himself approaching someone he was interested in, only to fumble over something as simple as saying “baby wassup?” Rather than rushing towards a confession, the song stays within those uncertain moments beforehand - nervous thoughts, stolen glances, awkward greetings and the excitement of suddenly finding yourself thrown off by another person.
Much of its charm comes from the gap between intention and reality. He wants to appear cool and make a good impression, but caring about how he is perceived only makes every stumble more noticeable. Yet embarrassment does not stop him from trying again. The courage lies less in delivering the perfect line than in allowing himself to risk looking awkward because the feeling is genuine.
Within NO LABELS: PART 02, that vulnerability gently complicates Yeonjun’s familiar confidence. The charismatic performer who can command attention without hesitation can also be shy, clumsy and uncertain when approaching someone he genuinely likes. Neither side contradicts the other - both can simply be Yeonjun.

OK, OK, OK, OK
Baby when you're walking towards me from afar
Even if I try to act like it's nothing,
I can't stop stealing glances
These feelings are a first for me
What is this feeling?
OK, OK, OK, OK
Because of the nerves, I'm thirsty
I awkwardly say hi to you
Why am I like this? It's absurd
You walked in my life like you own it
I'm hooked, I can't breathe
Without a warning, on my heart you knockin'
You got it, you got it, you got it, you got it bad
You really got it bad
You really got it like that, like that, like that
Even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Ideal type, taste, MBTI
I already know it all but I ask anyway
Baby say some (to me)
Really want you, baby say some (to me)
In my heart, today is day 1
You walked in my life like you own it
I'm hooked, I can't breathe
Without a warning, on my heart you knockin'
You got it, you got it, you got it, you got it bad
You really got it bad
You really got it like that, like that, like that
Even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby, even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Baby wassup?
So sweet like cream
I ain't gotta sleep, you already my dream
You're candy in my ears
If you listen you'll melt
That you like, like, like me
So sweet like cream
I ain't gotta sleep, you already my dream
Can't hide it even if I try, it's obvious
If you already know, hurry up and
Tell me that you like me
(Yeah you really)
You walked in my life like you own it
I'm hooked, I can't breathe
Without a warning, on my heart you knockin'
You got it, you got it, you got it, you got it bad
You really got it bad
You really got it like that, like that, like that
Even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby wassup?
(So sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)
Baby, even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Baby wassup?
Baby wassup?
Baby wassup?
Even if I'm a little clumsy, again
Baby wassup?
OK, OK, OK, OK
Baby when you're walking towards me from afar
Even if I try to act like it's nothing,
I can't stop stealing glances
These feelings are a first for me
What is this feeling?
OK, OK, OK, OK
Because of the nerves, I'm thirsty
I awkwardly say hi to you
OK, OK, OK, OK
