The 'WE GO UP' music video is packed with elements that appeal to fans. It features BABYMONSTER members using their unique abilities to defeat armed forces, resembling a sci-fi action movie. The members' dynamic action performances add to the visual appeal.

The song's quality is also noteworthy. 'WE GO UP' is an electronic hip-hop track that strongly reflects YG Entertainment's signature style. Despite its intense electronic sound, the song's central riff is driven by an electric guitar, giving it a band-like arrangement that sets it apart from BABYMONSTER's other tracks.

A standout feature of the track is Ahyeon's impressive vocal range. She delivers powerful high notes during the song's climax, showcasing her remarkable vocal abilities in the final chorus and the preceding bridge.

Ahyeon effortlessly hits both full voice high notes, such as E5, and whistle tones, reaching up to E6. The whistle tone is a vocal range achieved by only a few artists, including pop stars like Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande.

Meanwhile, BABYMONSTER's debut album 'DRIP', released last November, saw its title track 'DRIP' climb to 85th place on Melon's 'TOP 100' chart on the morning of October 14, 11 months post-release. However, 'WE GO UP' has yet to make its debut on the chart. With the music video's popularity, it remains to be seen if the track will gain momentum and achieve long-term success on the charts.
