Mamamoo’s Discography
Unlike regular idol groups who usually release a mini-album or digital single when they debut, Mamamoo had three pre-debut songs which were collaborations with other artists. The first song, Don’t Be Happy, which features rapper Bumkey, was released on January 8, 2014. A month later, their collaboration with K.Will and Wheesung Peppermint Chocolate was available on music sites and hit number 11 on the Gaon Digital Chart. Lastly, Mamamoo and Geeks’s collaboration HeeHeeHaHeHo was released in late May.
After introducing the public with their mindblowing vocals and harmonization, Mamamoo made their official debut with their first mini-album Hello. Notably, the music video of the title track, Mr. Ambiguous, includes various cameos by Baek Ji-young, K.Will, Jung Joon-young, CNBLUE’s Jonghyun, Wheesung, and Brand New Music’s CEO Rhymer.
Five months after their debut, Mamamoo released their second mini-album, Piano Man. The title track peaked at number 41 on the Gaon Digital Chart, whereas Mamamoo’s reputation for being a talented rookie girl-group became well established after their performance on Immortal Songs 2.
Slowly, but surely, Mamamoo’s popularity started to soar in 2015 as they released their third mini-album, Pink Funky. The group promoted Ahh Oop!, which was their second collaboration with female singer Esna, and Um Oh Ah Yeh, along with the release of the album in mid-June. After charting in in the top 100, Mamamoo was able to enter the top 10 as Um Oh Ah Yeh reached number three on the Gaon Chart
In 2016, Mamamoo released their first full album, Melting. Prior to their comeback, the girls pre-released I Miss You and 1cm/Taller than You, and the title track, You’re the Best, topped the various music streaming sites. The group also received their first music show win with this song.
After their first full album, Mamamoo released two more mini-albums, with the title tracks Decalcomanie and Yes I Am. Just like the previous releases, these tracks were able to further cement Mamamoo’s position in South Korea’s music industry.
In 2018, Mamamoo is undoubtedly busy, as they promote endlessly with Starry Night, Egotistic, and Wind Flower. These songs have different characteristics from each other, giving Mamamoo the ability to showcase their versatile charm: Starry Night has a chilling EDM vibe, Egotistic with its intense and fiery Latin feel, and Wind Flower with its deep lyrics accompanied by musical instruments in a relaxed manner.
