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.

Block B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
눈 뜨고 꿈꾸는 기분일까
괜히 가슴이 소란스러워지고
그리움도 경험해본다
내게 짓던 웃음이 참 예뻤지만
네 맘은 항상 표정을 짓지 않아
치유 받길 거절하는 널 보며
내가 할 게 못 되는구나 힘들다
시간 지나면 다 없었던 일
잠시 미쳤다 생각했는데
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
이제 와 보니 사랑한 거였다
나답지 않던 말과 행동이
멋대로 굴고 있는 심장이
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
언제쯤 넌 내 이름 불러줄까
널 꺾는다고 그 향기가 내 게 될까
넌 쓸쓸함에 대해 얘기하면서
안아주려는 내 손을 밀쳤어
체념할 자격도 없는 나 괴롭다
시간 지나면 다 없었던 일
잠시 미쳤다 생각했는데
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
이제 와 보니 사랑한 거였다
나답지 않던 말과 행동이
멋대로 굴고 있는 심장이
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
이제 더 이상은 특별함을 찾지 않아
널 쫓느라 두고 간 원래의 나를 찾아
혼자 한 사랑은 스스로 이별해야 되네
시간 지나면 다 없었던 일
잠시 미쳤다 생각했는데
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
이제 와 보니 사랑한 거였다
나답지 않던 말과 행동이
멋대로 굴고 있는 심장이
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
The lyrics of Block B's song "It Was Love" express the confusion and mixed emotions that arise from falling in love. The opening lines suggest uncertainty, questioning whether the feelings experienced are real or just a dream. The singer mentions how their heart becomes restless and overwhelmed, and they also experience longing and nostalgia.
The next lines talk about how the laughing expression directed towards the singer by their love interest seemed beautiful. However, they also acknowledge that their partner's true feelings are not always revealed through their facial expressions. This could imply a lack of transparency or emotional vulnerability in the relationship.
The following verses depict the singer's frustration with their inability to heal their partner's wounds. They observe their partner refusing to receive their help and realize their limitations in providing support. This realization is disheartening and challenging for them.
As time passes, the singer reflects on the past and realizes that they had mistaken their feeling as temporary madness or infatuation. They come to the realization that what they experienced was indeed love. They regret their past words and actions that were inconsistent with their true feelings and find it distressing that their heart acts independently.
The lyrics also touch upon the yearning for their love interest to call their name, but the person never does. The singer expresses the desire for their scent to be associated solely with them and recalls a moment when their love interest rejected their attempt at intimacy. This rejection leaves the singer feeling undeserving and tormented, even though they believe they have no right to give up or resign themselves.
In the bridge of the song, the lyrics convey that the singer no longer seeks something extraordinary or special. They express the need to let go of pursuing their love interest and regain their original self that they left behind. They conclude that they must be the one to end a love that they have experienced alone.
The final repetition of the line "나보다 소중한 게 있었다" (There was something more precious than me) suggests that the singer eventually discovers that their love interest had someone or something that was more important to them than the singer themselves. It conveys a sense of acceptance and resignation, acknowledging that they are not the most cherished person in their love interest's life.

알 수 없다
I can't understand
눈 뜨고 꿈꾸는 기분일까
Is it like waking up from a dream?
괜히 가슴이 소란스러워지고
My heart is needlessly restless
그리움도 경험해본다
I also experience longing
내게 짓던 웃음이 참 예뻤지만
The smiles you gave me were truly beautiful
네 맘은 항상 표정을 짓지 않아
But your heart never reveals its emotions
상처 난 것들을 보여주면서
While showing your wounded self
치유 받길 거절하는 널 보며
I see you rejecting healing
내가 할 게 못 되는구나 힘들다
It's difficult for me to not be able to do anything
시간 지나면 다 없었던 일
If time passes, it will all be gone
잠시 미쳤다 생각했는데
I thought I was crazy for a moment
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
It was love, it was love
이제 와 보니 사랑한 거였다
Now I realize I was in love
나답지 않던 말과 행동이
My words and actions that were unlike me
멋대로 굴고 있는 심장이
My heart that is acting on its own
사랑이었다 사랑이었다
It was love, it was love
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
There was something more precious than me
언제쯤 넌 내 이름 불러줄까
When will you call my name?
널 꺾는다고 그 향기가 내 게 될까
If I break you, will that scent become mine?
넌 쓸쓸함에 대해 얘기하면서
While talking about loneliness
안아주려는 내 손을 밀쳤어
You pushed away my hand that wanted to hold you
체념할 자격도 없는 나 괴롭다
I'm tormented by not having the right to resign myself
이제 더 이상은 특별함을 찾지 않아
Now I no longer search for specialness
널 쫓느라 두고 간 원래의 나를 찾아
I'm trying to find my original self that I left behind while chasing after you
혼자 한 사랑은 스스로 이별해야 되네
A love alone must say goodbye to itself
나보다 소중한 게 있었다
There was something more precious than me

This song came on shuffle yesterday after I spoke to the man of my unrequited love. I was crying during the drive home. It'll be okay.

가사 하나하나에 감정 전달력이 소름 돋을정도로 완벽해서 어느새 나도 몰입돼 있고 고음지르는 것도 깔끔하게 질러서 홀리는 기분...진짜 이 노래 많은 사람들이 알아줬음 좋겠다...숨어있기엔 너무 아까울 정도로 명곡이다
