## Background

[edit]

After the group's contract was renewed with JYP Entertainment in July 2022, they released Between 1&2 in August of the same year, which served as a celebration of Twice's eighth year as a group.[1] It received generally positive reviews from contemporary critics and was their first album to sell one million copies.[2] In December 2022, it was announced on the group's SNS that they would release an English single and a mini album in January and March 2023.[3] The announcement was accompanied by a poster with the date and the phrase "Twice Our Youth", which led internet users to assume that the phrase would be the title of their new album.[4] In January 2023, Twice released "Moonlight Sunrise", their second English single after "The Feels.[5] In the following month, they confirmed the title of the mini album, Ready to Be, and its lead single, "Set Me Free".[6]

## Composition

[edit]

Ready to Be is twenty minutes long and consists of seven songs. It is a primarily a pop record that heavily incorporates retro sounds. It features genres such as disco, pop-rock, blues, Miami bass, R&B, and dance-pop, with heavy influences from house, dream-pop, latin, and balearic beats.[7][8] Lyrically, the album revolves around the themes of maturity, confidence, love, and heartbreak.[8] Member Dahyun wrote the lyrics for "Blame It on Me" and "Crazy Stupid Love". A variety of songwriters and producers also participated, including Melanie Fontana, LDN Noise, Tayla Parx, Lindgren, Lostboy, Earattack, and Lee Woo-min "Collapsedone".[9]

### Songs

[edit]

The opening track "Set Me Free" is a disco track characterized by a groovy bass line, a "common yet powerful sound", and liberating lyrics.[10][11] The lyrics revolve around the protagonists finding the courage to confess their love to a crush, with lines such as "I've been hiding how I feel for you forever" and "Now that it's off my chest there's room for you and me".[12] The second track is pre-release single "Moonlight Sunrise", an upbeat Miami bass, R&B, and pop song.[13][14] The track incorporates a synth-pop arrangement with house influences, a dreamy melody, and lyrics that "explore the urgency of love."[15] "Got the Thrills" is a Balearic beat-influenced dance-pop song.[7] Some critics noted that "Got the Thrills" could be considered a sequel to "Talk That Talk" due to its similar synths and chord progression.[8] "Got the Thrills" is followed by a rock and blues-inspired track, "Blame It on Me," whose lyrics were written by Twice member Dahyun. It is characterized by a "loud strum" of electric guitar, and a consistent chord progression throughout the track. Its lyrics talk about one-sided obsession with "a subtle touch of lust."[8] Some critics described the song as an "ode to unrequited love and the consequences of not being reciprocated."[8] The fifth song, "Wallflower," is a Latin-influenced track.[8] Lyrically, it is about "confidently suggesting an intimate night and sharing a dance with one another."[8] Dahyun also wrote the lyrics for the closing track, "Crazy Stupid Love." It is a pop-rock song describing a break-up and the "raging emotions of not wanting to deal with trivial lies and the toxicity that love can carry."[8]

NME| [7]

Rolling Stone's Tim Chan gave the album a positive review, stating that Twice "blows up the tired stereotypes and smashes through barriers with a seven-song set that’s as brash and compelling as anything in the pop music landscape today".[12] Rhian Daly of NME gave the album a rating of four out of five stars, noting that it further refines Twice's sophisticated and retro-inspired sound, despite some "awkward junctures".[7] Lai Frances, writing for Uproxx, praised the group's "newfound image of bringing sophisticated pop with mature themes."[8] AllMusic's Neil Z. Yeung concluded his review by saying Ready to Be keeps "the energy and euphoria at a peak" and "is another serving of addictive pop moments from the confident and stylish nine-piece".[24] Han Seong-hyun from IZM wrote that "while the impressions left by 'Set Me Free' and 'Moonlight Sunrise' are somewhat flat, the rest of the tracks that follow succeed in immediately engaging and immersing the ear". Han nevertheless felt that while Ready to Be "may not be the best", it is "the best result that a 7-year-old group can show."[25]

In June, Time included the album on their list of the best albums of 2023 so far, calling it a "confident comeback," praising its clever and earworm production, writing "twice blow up the tired stereotypes and smashes [sic] through barriers with a seven-song set that’s as brash and compelling as anything in the pop music landscape today. Ready to Be is a confident comeback from one of K-pop’s most exciting groups, chock full of high-octane bangers and clever earworms that command your attention from the very first note."[26] Uproxx included the EP on a similar list, complimenting its production, versatility, as well as the group's live performances.[27] Paste ranked it the 8th best K-pop album of the year, who called it "more sophisticated and mature than ever before with assertive claims of control and defiance made throughout the lyrics".[28] Kim Do-heon of Zenerate ranked the album at number 13 for their list of The 15 Best K-pop Albums of 2023.[29]
