Background and release

[edit]

On April 19, 2016 BANANA Culture announced that EXID would have a comeback of first week in June with their first studio album. The album was named the third best K-pop album of 2016 by Billboard. The article noted, "The strongest girl-group output of 2016, EXID finally got the chance to show what they were capable of with a full-length album of offbeat-yet-trendy dance tracks that delivered on the promise they showed so early in the career. 'L.I.E' is an aggressive pop banger, but slick songs like "Cream," "Don't Want a Drive" and "No Way" rival it for best and most accessible song on the album."[2]
