MONSTA X’s Shownu, Kihyun, and Hyungwon renew their contract with Starship Entertainment; Still in discussion

Nova K. Williams May 9, 2022 2 min read

According to music industry officials on May 9, MONSTA XStarship Entertainment’s contract will end this week. Currently, only Shownu, Kihyun, and Hyungwon have renewed their contracts with Starship Entertainment while Minhyuk, Joohoney, and IM are still in talks.

Considering that unlike actors, singers usually renew their contracts six months in advance, the discussion with MONSTA X is going to last longer. Additionally, album activities and tours are expected to continue regardless of whether the contract is renewed or not, as it is currently ongoing following their recent comeback.

MONSTA X was formed through Starship Entertainment’s “No.Mercy” reality survival program. The group currently consists of six members: Shownu, Minhyuk, Kihyun, Hyungwon, Joohoney, and IM, with former member Wonho leaving the group in October 2019.

Since 2019, seven of their Korean albums have been certified platinum by the Korea Music Content Association. In February 2020, MONSTA X’s debut English album ‘All About Luv’ charted at number five on the US Billboard 200 and number seven on the US Rolling Stone Top 200.

Since their debut, MONSTA X have been known for their aggressive style, combining elements of hip hop, EDM and pop. This aggressive style with tracks centering on loud, slamming electronic instrumentals, vicious rap verses and striking vocals was an influence on the fourth generation of K-pop.

Their latest comeback, “Shape of Love,” is the eleventh extended play with the title track “Love,” which is a modern take on the catchy R&B guitar sound with an old school feel and the raw yet groovy hip-hop bass, exuding the strong colors and energy unique to MONSTA X. It’s also a song that wanted to send a message of pure feelings of being loved and cherished.

We also hope to see them all together in the near future!
