Pre-released on their first album, “GALA” is a futuristic runway anthem unique to XG, transforming high fashion into a surreal spectacle with original synthesizer sounds. The track illustrates the group’s journey, deconstructing existing rules and conventions to create a new world through their distinctive artistic vision.
Opening like a grand epic, as if landing from space to Earth, “GALA” combines XG’s sharp raps, smooth bilingual flows, powerful house rhythms, and cinematic production, reinterpreting classic stages within the group’s unique universe. “GALA” is both a bold performance celebrating style, power, and galactic glamour, and an iconic track dramatically showcasing XG’s original world.
