In 2011, B.I began his career as a trainee at YG Entertainment, one of the leading entertainment agencies in the K-pop industry. Two years later, in 2013, he officially debuted as a full-time artist.

After that, he continued his career as the lead rapper and leader of the K-pop group iKON, which gained widespread recognition with their first album, Welcome Back. The album was launched on October 1, 2015, and reached number 3 on the Billboard World Album chart.

After departing from iKON in 2020, B.I launched his solo career by releasing his first EP, Cosmos, in July 2021. He then continued to make waves in the music industry with his debut studio album, Waterfall, which was released in October of the same year.

Following that, on November 18, 2022, the singer unveiled his second solo EP, Love or Loved Part.1. During an exclusive interview with the Grammy Awards website on November 21, 2022, the singer discussed the EP in detail, saying:

“Loved or Loved Pt. 1 is more so about youthful love rather than my life in particular. I almost wanted to understand or share the different types of ways to express love and some of the situations being in love can put you in.”

The singer went on to say:

“Some of the words that came to mind when I thought about those situations could be: passionate, cold, fluttering, lonely, bold and cautious. It’s interesting how many different types of emotions are associated with the world of love.”

B.I’s second studio album, To Die For, was released on June 1, 2023, followed by his third EP, Love or Loved Part.2, on November 10, 2023. This EP marked the completion of the Love or Loved project and reached number 18 on the Korean album chart.
