J-Pop continues to evolve, and one of the names gaining momentum is PG, a Japanese vocal and dance group that has quickly captured the attention of young audiences both in Japan and abroad. Their latest music video, Banabana, has already surpassed 5 million views on YouTube, becoming their biggest hit to date.
🎤 Who Are PG?
PG is a co-ed Japanese group (made up of both boys and girls) that officially debuted in November 2024 under Avex, one of the most influential music labels in Japan. The group consists of 14 members — 7 boys and 7 girls, all of them very young, which gives the project a fresh energy clearly aimed at new generations.
From the very beginning, PG was designed as a high-performance vocal and dance group, combining polished choreography with a colorful, modern aesthetic aligned with current pop trends.
🌈 A Concept for the New Generation
Unlike more traditional groups, PG embraces a flexible unit format, meaning not all members necessarily take the same roles in every release. This approach allows the group to experiment with different combinations, styles, and spotlights, keeping their content dynamic and visually engaging.
Musically, PG blends J-Pop, EDM, and dance-oriented sounds, creating tracks that work both on stage and across digital platforms, where viral potential plays a key role.
🚀 From TikTok to the Spotlight
Even before their official debut, several PG members were already gaining attention on TikTok, where dance videos began circulating among young users. That early exposure helped the group build an initial fanbase before debuting — a major advantage in today’s music industry.
After their official launch, PG continued to grow rapidly, releasing a steady stream of digital singles, each accompanied by carefully produced performances or music videos.
🎵 “Banabana”: Their Breakthrough Moment
Released in 2025, “Banabana” quickly became PG’s most recognizable track so far. With its catchy rhythm, upbeat summer vibe, and memorable choreography, the song found its way into youth playlists and social media content.
The official music video has now surpassed 5 million views on YouTube, an impressive milestone for a group with less than a year of activity — and a clear sign of their growing international reach.
