‘Mic ON’ will mark MAMAMOO’s first release as a full group in over a year, their last music together being September 2021’s compilation album ‘I Say MAMAMOO: The Best’. That record had only included two new tracks, its lead single ’mumumumuch’ and the song ‘Happier Than Ever’.

The group’s four members – Solar, Moonbyul, Wheein and Hwasa – have spent the past year focusing on their solo endeavours. Members Solar and Moonbyul also teamed up last month to form the act’s first-ever subunit MAMAMOO+, and released the single ‘Better’ featuring rapper BIG Naughty.

In NME’s interview with leader and vocalist Solar about her debut mini-album ‘容: Face’, the idol shared that she struggled to process the group’s popularity. “We were so busy just trying to live and focused on working hard that back then, I wasn’t able to process the feelings,” she said.

“Now, thinking back on it all, I’m so grateful for all those times and I’m thankful for everything now.”

RBW Entertainment first confirmed in June that the quartet were working on new music to commemorate their eighth anniversary as an act. At the time, the agency also shared that MAMAMOO were planning to hold a concert later in 2022.
