˗ˏˋ  SORA SOLO DEBUT ALBUM !  ‘ 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 ’ ♡ ˚◞

april 4th 2022 angelico ent released CHERRY SORA of VIVID’s breakout debut album. the debut was considered the most anticipated and most successful solo debut of the year , with her title track TIE A CHERRY being a smash hit. every track on the album was written and produced by SORA alongside production partner DAYNA under their duo production name SODA. with tracks XAI and VELVET made with ex group mate and well known industry producer BLU. the title track was promoted alongside her intro for the album RAW ! and the b side RED MIND. the quality of production on each track is a characteristic which SODA and BLU have become known for.

-ˏˋ  ABOUT ! 𝐑𝐀𝐖 & 𝐓𝐈𝐄 𝐀 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘. ♡ ˚◞

the intro track RAW opens the album with fierceness. although it may be the shortest of the tracks it still leaves an impact with its message “i just wanna be raw” as the opening track it lets the listener know who sora is as an artist; raw. which ties in perfectly with her title track TIE A CHERRY

the title track TIE A CHERRY is a song that displays sora unapologetic individualism and self-love: not only praising herself visually but also as an artist as she boldly claims that there is no one beating her. the track is written by sora but produced by vivid subunit soda. it builds an atmosphere of freedom with a musical blend of hip-hop and bass to create a fun and engaging sound that leaves the listener feeling good and wanting to shake ass along to it. the instrumental is impressive, to say the least. with catchy filtered vocals and harmonies to exciting synths that compliment the songs bouncy and hard hitting 808’s and bass on the bottom end.

˗ˏˋ  ABOUT !  ‘ 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 ’ ♡ ˚◞

CHERRY is a hip-hop-centered album that showcases sora’s multiple skills along with her expert lyricism. lee manages to mix her powerful raps with sharp digs which we see in BITCHY and NOT FRIENDLY with her signature effortlessly cool yet hard-hitting style , along side her soulful introspective track BETTER which explores how sora hopes that a lover feels better having given up on their relationship suddenly . another slower and sensitive vocal driven track is MY PROBLEM which speaks on a codependent relationship that was almost doomed from the start. tracks such as NEED TO KNOW and XAI mix both her vocals and rap perfectly with a subtle sex appeal and swag. sora herself explained she wanted the album to embody herself ; fun - seen in RED MIND- and sexy- seen in VELVET- with a hint of seriousness as she explores herself.

we see this serious side in the outro FUN GIRL. it is a stripped one take track where sora is playing the guitar and singing about how she struggles to view herself as someone worth love but also acknowledges that she shouldn’t internalize rejection and understanding that it’s could also come from the other persons flaws and not purely her own. her confidence may come across as cocky and undesirable due to societies expectations of woman. she has faced backlash in korean media for being openly feminist and speaking out of gender equality. lee ends the album repeating “life’s unfair’’. this sentiment reflects the overall message of the album, life is hard yet it’s fun. as her melody and lyrics highlight what a painful reality it is.it as a deeply raw and honest track that exposes sora’s inner most worries and thoughts.

there are multiple tracks that are definite anthems and fun listens as well as sexier tracks , every single one deserves just as much attention as the next. soras authentic style and fun energy that she brings on her debut album cannot go unnoticed. with her being album to create this on her debut it definitely definitely provides a framework for her upcoming releases leaving us all excited for what’s to come.

˗ˏˋ  ERA HIGHLIGHTS !  ‘ 𝐓𝐈𝐄 𝐀 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 ! ’ ♡ ˚◞

𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 ! got a lot of praise for it’s musicality and lyricism. with critics saying it was an album to be remembered and aspired to by future generations.

𝐓𝐈𝐄 𝐀 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 mv got 20 million views in 24 hours which is almost double the views DAYNA received on her debut

SORA did a special promotional solo press concert where she performed every track

𝐓𝐈𝐄 𝐀 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 received 5 music show wins in its 3 weeks of promotion which is beyond impressive for a debut single.

at her first win other VIVID members came out and celebrated with her just like they did for DAYNA the year before ! sora was crying as the members mainly sang along and did the choreography. SISI and LEO picked her up during the bridge as she rapped along and wiped her tears. it was a fun and emotional moment that went viral

SORA’S visuals and aesthetic for the era was a hit not only among brites but among the general public as well. her skunk hair sparked a trend amongst idols that hair with many sporting the look later on. although she was not the first to wear it, she definitely popularized it.

a clip of sora and her back up dancer arin tweaking and sling ass during an encore went viral with good and bad reviews. fans were happy to see sora happy and couldn’t deny her skills but others called it tasteless and trashy labeling her as a whore. she didn’t care lmao.

speculation about who her tracks were about was a huge talking point with many noticing how fin was featured less on her instagram in recent months.

sora filmed multiple Vtalk episodes during her promotions which aired weekly on the groups youtube. it documented silly backstage moments and rehearsals. the other members also recorded some clips when they came to watch her performances. because she was on her own her personality was able to shine more and fans posted clips and edits on social media which gained a lot of attention from non fans.

a total of 4 music videos were released for the tracks on the album : TIE A CHERRY , RED MIND , NOT FRIENDLY and NEED TO KNOW.

Silly Kingdom Hearts AU where the Destiny Trio are actually part of the OG FF7 world/Midgar, with Sora and Riku ending up as part of the Shinra SOLDIER program because their propaganda is insane. I wouldn’t put it past Shinra employing literal child soldiers…
