Red Velvet - Peek-A-Boo
Red Velvet revisited their "velvet" image by releasing their second full-length album Perfect Velvet on November 17 with the lead single "Peek-A-Boo". Critics opined that the group finally managed to make that side of their concept and music appeal more to the public and unlike their first "velvet" release, the album and single were both commercially successful. It peaked atop Billboard's World Album Chart which once again set the record for most number-ones on the chart by a K-pop girl group but also tied with most number-ones among all K-pop acts. "Peek-A-Boo" peaked at #2 on Billboard's World Digital Songs chart, tying with their 2016 single "Russian Roulette".In South Korea, the album charted at #2 on the Gaon Album Chart
"Peek-A-Boo" was described as an up-tempo pop dance song with trop house elements. The song and the album received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the group for their transition from their brighter and bubblier image from their last two singles "Rookie" and "Red Flevor" (both released in the same year), to a more mature sound.
