The group's debut single was "Playboy".

2010

The group was formed by friends from three big cities in Indonesia:

  • Surabaya- PJ, Natly
  • Malang- GC
  • Bandung- Mezty

  • Members of the group come from, and previously have come from, various related professions: modeling, fashion designer, dancer, presenter, teacher, college student, and disc jockey. After the initial idea for the group was suggested by A.Tee, they decided to move to Jakarta and bought a small apartment to act as their headquarters. Whilst searching for a music label, 7icons hired a personal dance coach and took vocal lessons, all of which were self-financed. As the group had large expenditure (for coaches, studio, etc.) and no income, Mezty sold her car to help them cover costs. After 7icons signed a contract with Keci Music in Indonesia, they prepared for their debut and started promoting their single track Playboy.
