Hip-hop/R&B-inspired group XG has unveiled the key visual for their second world tour, “XG WORLD TOUR: THE CORE.”
In May 2024, XG launched their first world tour, “XG 1st WORLD TOUR ‘The first HOWL,’” starting with their Japan shows at K-Arena Yokohama. Over the course of roughly a year, they held 47 shows across 35 cities worldwide. The tour culminated in a finale at Tokyo Dome that sent around 50,000 fans into a frenzy, and the tour drew approximately 400,000 attendees in total, firmly establishing XG as a global artist.
This second tour will dive into the “core” of the unique world and identity XG has built to date. Revealed today, the key visual brings the tour title “THE CORE” to life, capturing XG’s intense presence and energy in striking form. The newly released tour logo, like the artwork for the full album, is rendered in calligraphy, resulting in a design that conveys the group’s convictions and their global scale.
Having recently reframed the meaning behind their name as “Xtraordinary Genes,” XG is now entering a new phase. With their full album “THE CORE – 核” set to drop in just one week, anticipation is continuing to build for the tour that follows.
A dedicated tour website has also launched today, so be sure to check it out.

XG’s first full album, “THE CORE – 核,” is a declaration that captures the group’s deepest essence. It goes beyond trends and surface embellishment to focus on the source of their music and their very being.
The album moves freely across genre boundaries, tracing a journey that connects different eras and spaces. Yet at the heart of every shift is XG’s unwavering identity and distinctive energy.
“THE CORE – 核” is also a statement of the new genre XG is creating, X-POP. Grounded in the belief that good music holds value on its own, it expresses a true musical journey that transcends time, space, and era.
This is the most honest reflection of XG as they are today, and a powerful starting point toward the limitless possibilities ahead.
