Their first single album "Do U Wanna B?", along with the title's track MV '그대로 멈춰라!' (Freeze), were released on April 14th, 2011.
Previously known in the underground hip-hop scene by Blockbuster (블록버스터), the group had several changes until their current formation: Zico (leader, group's producer and rapper), Jaehyo/안재효 (sub-vocal), B-Bomb (main dancer and sub-vocal), Taeil/이태일 (main vocal), Park Kyung/박경 (rapper), U-Kwon (dancer and lead vocal) and P.O (rapper).
The members were trained by Cho PD to work on writing and composing about 100 songs over the course of their training period. Training them to become a singer-songwriters, he hoped to expand their experience and competence level, as well as promote "expert ease".
In 2018, leader Zico did not resign with Seven Seasons, leaving to start an independent music label, KOZ Entertainment. The remaining six members resigned.
In the statement released by Seven Seasons, discussions are still being made about how the group can continue with all seven members. In the meantime, the group will be focusing on sub-units and solo activities as compulsory military enlistment approaches for the members. The members have also mentioned in their solo schedules that the Block B will continue as seven.
빛이 되어줘
Block B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
손 뻗었지만 바람만 부딪혀와
왠지 모르게 낯선 이곳
초라함에 익숙해지네
그림자처럼 지내
한번쯤 날 봐줄 거란
부질없는 기대와
상상 속의 너와 밤새 나누는 대화
I can't get over
오직 너만이
내 주변을 밝혀
빛이 되어줘
까맣게 가려진
맘을 너로 밝혀줘 oh
얼어붙은 날 녹여
지나치게 눈이 부셔서
딴 놈들 쳐다보지 못하게
빛이 되어줘
Shine your light on me baby
빛이 되어줘
Uh uh oh
빛이 되어줘
Shine your light on me baby
살짝 스치기만 해도
모든걸 빼앗긴 기분이야
놓치고 싶지 않아
숨처럼 내 곁에 늘 머물지만
만질 수 없어서
갈수록 더 애절해져
낮엔 태양이 되어
날 따사롭게 해 주며
밤엔 달로 변해서
황홀한 낭만을 줘
저 멀리 반짝거리는
무언 갈 쫓아
I can see in the dark
비가 그치고 너가 날 비추는 날
우리 사랑은 다시 피어나
빛이 되어줘
까맣게 가려진
맘을 너로 밝혀줘 oh
얼어붙은 날 녹여
지나치게 눈이 부셔서
딴 놈들 쳐다보지 못하게
빛이 되어줘
Shine your light on me baby
빛이 되어줘
Oh oh oh
빛이 되어줘
Shine your light on me baby
You always by my side look
짙은 암흑 속에서
더 선명해지는
네 모습 날 눈 멀게 해
네 숨이 닿는 곳에 서성이며
빈 자리를 채워
나란 놈이 추억되게
제자리서 지켜 보는 것만이
상처 없이 너를 소유하는 방식
You're all I see
And you're all I need
지금처럼만 있어줘
Please
빛이 되어줘 ho ho
두 손으로 눈앞을 가려도
널 지울 수는 없어
빛이 되어줘
까맣게 가려진
맘을 너로 밝혀줘 oh
얼어붙은 날 녹여
지나치게 눈이 부셔서
딴 놈들 쳐다보지 못하게
The song "빛이 되어줘" (Shine, Be a Light) by Block B speaks about darkness and the desire for the presence of a loved one to illuminate one's life. The opening lines paint a picture of darkness that seems impenetrable, and the singer's efforts to reach out to someone they love (presumably the person addressed in the song) prove futile. They find themselves in a strange place and become used to a sense of helplessness. The chorus repeats the plea for the loved one to shine their light and brighten up their world. The singer feels like they have lost everything when the person is not around, and they want their light to make everything better.
The lyrics also portray a sense of longing for the person addressed in the song. The singer yearns for them to stay by their side always, and even a fleeting touch from them feels like taking everything away from the singer. The lyrics suggest that the relationship between the singer and the person addressed is a deeply profound and beautiful one. Even when the singer feels lost and alone, they find solace in the thought of the person and the memories they have shared. The song urges the person addressed to be there for the singer through thick and thin, much like how the sun provides warmth during the day and the moon brings in romance at night.
Overall, "빛이 되어줘" is a heartfelt love song that conveys a sense of yearning and longing for the presence of a loved one to brighten up the singer's life. The lyrics are a beautiful description of how one person can transform the world of another through their presence, their light.
