Changes in JYP, 'No More JYP Intro in Songs?'



"It is a JYP song but it is not written by JYP?"
JYP, one of the premiere record labels, is famous for putting out songs that are written and composed by JYP, Park Jin Young the CEO himself. That unique model of production, as it turns out, is currently being phased out.
Starting from Baek Ak Yeon's "Slow Song" from last year and 15&'s "I Dream" and "Sombebody," there was no signature intro that goes "J.Y.P" at the beginning of the song. That is because the songs were composed by someone other than JYP himself. Still, they were written by those within the company. Now, JYP is beginning to embrace those outside the company when it comes to song selection. Baek Ah Yeon's new song "A Good Boy" was written by E.One who has no affiliation with JYP.
The real change began taking place last year. JYP opened its doors to composers to the 'outsiders' who are not contracted with the company.
An associate from JYP commented, "During song selection, if there comes along a song that is better than JYP's song, we go with it. We started employing the method since Baek Ah Yeon's debut last year."
