The EP Riizing, described as an "emotional-pop album", opens with the title track "Boom Boom Bass", a dance-pop song featuring a "funky disco beat", "groovy bass lines", and lyrics about "youth freely expressing their excitement for each other by playing the bass guitar". [7] The second track, "Siren", incorporates 90's hip-hop elements like " boom bap drums" and "strong bass riffs". [3] The third track, "Impossible", features "rhythmic house beats" and "mysterious synthesizers", with lyrics suggesting that "anything is possible when pursued collectively". [4] The fourth track, "9 Days", is a dance song characterized by "energetic synthesizers and drums", and "infectious melodies", convey that "weeks feel like nine days, but they (Riize) keep pursuing their dreams". The fifth track, "Honestly", is an R&B-pop song combining "dreamy synth pads", " trap drum beats" and "soothing vocals". The sixth track, "One Kiss", is a mid-tempo song featuring "majestic strings" and "powerful drums". [5] The album closes with previously released singles "Talk Saxy" and "Love 119"; [8] "Talk Saxy" features saxophone riffs and 808 bass, while "Love 119" incorporates "sweet piano riffs" and samples "Emergency Room" by South Korean band Izi.
