"Nineteen" is a song that conveys the struggles or resistance of the careless youth who sometimes wants to be irresponsible and want to be nineteen, an age that can still be forgiven even if they just look at the world lightly and continue living.
B.I wrote and composed the lyrics to capture his youth. The Grammy introduced B.I as a Korean musician, singer-songwriter, and producer, saying, "He always has a clear vision of the impact he wants to make with his music. This is to push the boundaries of Korean singers in K-pop into a more global platform. It includes broadening his concepts."
