Baba debuted in March of 2015 with a remake song, basically had a whole new lineup for each comeback, and then disbanded with an (officially) unreleased track at some point in June 2020. There’s a bit of talk that they may be re-debuting, but right now that just seems like rumors. While I’d like to see something more come out of this as I like half of their songs (an official release of their last track would be amazing), but to be honest, I really don’t know what this group was supposed to be aside from just another example of the revolving door of members and “try everything and see what sticks!” company cash grab world that is the vast majority of the KPop industry. In the end, unless they manage to “strike it rich”, only the company and the group name are important; and, several of the members (6 of the 21 total members), were previously in or later went on to join other “nugu”/failed groups thus further showing not only how hard these “idols” try to escape “Hell Korea” but also just how completely unimportant the actual idols are in the grand scheme of the KPop idol industry (most ultimately fail miserably, only making money for their bosses) - I mean, for god’s sake, three members of this group had the exact same stage name! If that doesn’t prove to you just how completely replaceable these idols are to these companies I don’t know what will.
