[TV Daily reporter Kim Jin-seok] Taeyang has finally unveiled his new music.

The Black Label released a sampler video on its official social channels on the 16th for Taeyang’s fourth full-length album, Quintessence.

The roughly three-minute clip features snippets of the lead single, LIVE FAST DIE SLOW, alongside excerpts from the album’s ten tracks, paired with striking visual sequences.

The sampler highlights Taeyang’s distinctive vocals as he shifts effortlessly across genres, and it underscores the album’s organic pacing—from hard-hitting beats to smooth R&B—across its ten tracks.

Taeyang has scheduled his fourth studio album, Quintessence, and its lead single, LIVE FAST DIE SLOW, for release on the 18th, and he’s been rolling out a steady stream of teaser material. A music-video teaser that channels intense performance and kinetic energy is expected to reaffirm his standing as a consummate, all‑around artist.

A previously released comeback documentary explained why the team chose Quintessence—a word meaning “essence”—as the album’s title and central concept.

Taeyang’s fourth studio album, Quintessence, and the title track LIVE FAST DIE SLOW will be available on music platforms at 6 p.m. on the 18th.
