XG is out with new music. On November 6, 2026, the seven-member group released the single 'DEPENDS,' pairing the title track with B-side 'S.A.D,' and posted the official music video on the XG Official YouTube channel.
XG's official site had already locked the November 6 Friday release and the two-track lineup, along with a U.S.-only digipak CD. ORICON NEWS, covering the drop the same day, said the title song blends late-2000s/early-2010s-leaning electro-pop with R&B and layered harmonies, and described the MV as a playful, surreal chase through four sets with seven colorful fictional creatures tied to each member.
Brush Music, citing XG's official materials, also reported midnight rollouts by country and release-week events in Shanghai, Taipei, and Tokyo (including Tower Records Shibuya from November 6).
