24/Seven is the third studio album released by American boy band Big Time Rush, released on June 11, 2013 by Columbia Records before the group's indefinite hiatus. The album experiments with a dance-rock and R&B sound.[2] It also serves as the follow-up to their second studio album Elevate. The band worked with producers Matt Squire and Damon Sharpe, as they had done in the past, in an effort to mature their sound yet not stray away from their well-known qualities. The four members co-wrote thirteen songs (including five deluxe edition bonus tracks) with several hired songwriters.

'24/Seven', the album's title track, was released as the lead single on June 19, 2013 along with its music video. The album received mixed to positive reviews from critics, and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 becoming their second top 10 album following their debut album BTR in 2010. The album was a worldwide success going gold and multi-platinum in many countries such as Mexico, Venezuela, Greece and Colombia as well as becoming their fastest selling album to date. 24/Seven became the band's third consecutive album to sell in excess of 1 million copies worldwide.

Background[edit]

Beginning on April 26, 2013, Big Time Rush began releasing photos for various songs on the album via Instagram and Google Plus. The band revealed the final track listing for the album on April 29, 2013 via Entertainment Weekly.[6][7]

Composition[edit]

Musically, 24/Seven marks a shift on the band's signature sound showcasing a more mature, organic and 'down-to-earth pop' direction than their previous two albums, BTR and Elevate.[8] In contrast with their past releases, the songs were written primarily by the band,[9] with the exception of the songs 'Like Nobody's Around' and 'Song for You', each song on the album was either written or co-written by a member of the band. The album features duo Karmin, which appears on the track 'Song for You', and rapper Jake Miller on deluxe edition bonus track 'Lost in Love'. The first version of the song 'Love Me Again' was written by Big Time Rush, but Nickelodeon altered the song to be more 'kid-friendly'.

'Like Nobody's Around' was released on March 23, 2013. The video references other successful boy bands in past decades as The Ink Spots (1940s/1950s), The Osmonds (1960s), The Jackson 5 (1970s), New Kids on the Block (1980s), Backstreet Boys (1990s) and NSYNC (2000s). The video was premiere on Nickelodeon during the 2013 Kids' Choice Awards.

'24/Seven' was released on June 19, 2013 along with its music video. The song was written by Damon Sharpe, Logan Henderson, Carlos Pena Jr, James Maslow, Kendall Schmidt, Jeremy Skaller, Jamil 'Digi' Chammas, Justin Lucas, and Ameerah Roelants; it was produced by OFM and Sharpe.

The third and final single, and final song to ever be released by Big Time Rush, was 'We Are', which was released on August 3, 2013 to Vevo and iTunes, and aired on the finale episode of Nickelodeon television series Big Time Rush.
