B.I 'Cosmos': Release date, tracklist, and all about his upcoming mini-album
On October 22, rapper Kim Hanbin aka B.I held his first-ever online concert after embracing freedom from the charges against him in the court of law. Only 19 days after that, B.I announced the release of his second studio album ‘Cosmos’ which will release as a "half-album" in November 2021. B.I took to his social media handles to tease the release of his album.
Over the last few days, B.I has been releasing message posters for his comeback album. Each song teaser has a different message attached to it that serves as part of the lyrics of each song. For the album, B.I has transformed into someone who is angry and emotional at the same time while his message posters had phrases like, “This love doesn’t give me a chance,” and “I feel alive when the fire rages,” promising a fiery comeback.

Concept
In the short cinematic teaser, B.I is filmed with many people from various genders, age groups, and circles of life. The teaser has short video clips featuring these everyday people who are asked one question, ‘What is your Cosmos?’ To this question, all of them had different answers.
One said "family" was their Cosmos while others said it was their "pet" or "to be able to dance," among many other things. The camera then panned out to B.I who sat comfortably in a chair, looking ever so charming. When posed with the question, ‘What is your Cosmos?’, B.I begins to answer it by saying, “My…” as the camera cuts to black.
