Musical style
Of the two studio albums and two singles Super Junior has released since 2005, the majority of their music is marked within the mainstream K-pop label. Songs from this genre are usually a mixture of other genres such as rock and R&B. Their debut single, "TWINS (Knock Out)" was a cover song, the original being called "Knockout" by the British boy band Triple Eight that was released in 2003. Unlike the original piece, "TWINS (Knock Out)" was reproduced to a heavier rap rock song, with quicker rap and more emphasis on the bass instruments. Their follow-up single, "Miracle", is a light-hearted, bubblegum pop love song. "U" is more focused on urban contemporary, having a more R&B approach to the group's mainstream music. Their 2007 comeback release, "Don't Don" however, is the group's first SMP project.[56] Unlike "Marry U", which is a medium-tempo, R&B ballad, "Don't Don" includes an infusion of rock, R&B, and rap, combining its musical elements with a violin segment. Super Junior also released hip hop-inspired tracks such as "A Man In Love", which incorporated traditional percussion instruments such as the African djemba and the Indian tabla.[57]
Heechul, Shindong, and Eunhyuk were credited for their rap lyrics in their co-single with TVXQ, "Show Me Your Love". Eunhyuk was also the main contributor for the rap lyrics in the group's single, "U". After the release of their second album, Don't Don, more members began to contribute in writing. Leeteuk, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, and Donghae wrote the lyrics to the pop track, "I am," a song talking about the ordinary man in a celebrity's life.[3] Eunhyuk remains as one of the main writers for most of Super Junior's rap performances in the second album.
