Girl group TRI.BE has released its fourth single 'Diamond' on Feb. 20 through various music streaming sites, its agency TR Entertainment said. 

'Diamond' compares the process of overcoming hardships and finding one's true self among six girls with different lifestyles, cultures, and personalities to an uncut gem that eventually shines like a perfect diamond just by existing.

The title track 'Diamond' features positive lyrics that seem to chant a spell to lift oneself up when feeling like giving up, a catchy chorus that everyone can sing along to, and a relaxed atmosphere characteristic of Afrobeats, blending well with TRI.BE's vocals to create diverse charms.

In particular, Noop, the leader of the street dance crew LADYBOUNCE, participated in choreographing this song, adding TRI.BE's unique expression to the performance with the prominent rhythm of Afrobeats, enhancing the immersion.

The B-side track 'Run' depicts TRI.BE's relentless pursuit of their dreams, with members directly participating in songwriting and composition to convey their own wishes to each other or to their fans.

During the approximately one-year hiatus, TRI.BE polished their individual talents like their own gemstones. They are expected to kick off their 2024 activities with even more relaxed and mature charms, shining like self-luminous diamonds.

With outstanding vocal harmony, performance skills, six diverse and stylish visuals, and mainstream yet unique music, TRI.BE, who sets a career high with each album, raises expectations for what musical transformation they will achieve and how they will communicate with the public in this album.

Meanwhile, TRI.BE's fourth single 'Diamond' music and music video were released on Feb. 20 on various music streaming sites. Additionally, a TRI.BE comeback commemorative pop-up store will be operated at On the Move on Seongdong-gu Yeonmujang-gil from Feb. 21 to 25.
