Taken from their new album, Take.2 We Are Here, the Alligator MV is the first single from the 10-track LP. Take.2 is the follow up album to October’s Take.1, Are You There? album by MONSTA X, which peaked at No. 7 on the World Albums chart.

The Take.2 We Are Here album is fronted by the fierce dance track “Alligator,” which uses the reptilian metaphor to depict the intentions of someone aiming for the attentions of a romantic interest.

The South Korean/Mexican boy band was created by Starship Entertainment through the 2015 reality show No.Mercy.

Synopsis:
“The title track uses the animal as a concept to metaphorically talk about making someone fall for them the way an alligator takes hold of its prey. The music video reflects the concept well, giving off a wild yet sophisticated vibe that meshes well with MONSTA X’s powerful vocals.”
