New single drops March 3rd
BTS’ J-Hope will release a new single “On The Street” and an accompanied video on March 3rd via BigHit Music. The K-pop superstar made the surprise announcement on the official social media channels today (Sun, Feb 26th).
“On The Street” is a lo-fi hip hop track with easy-listening melody and warm-hearted lyrics. J-Hope participated in the songwriting of the song which delivers a hopeful message and warmth that reminds listeners of his positive and bright energy.
The key motif of the track comes from the word “street” which can be interpreted as a place where many people’s everyday lives pass by—a metaphor for life. It comes from ‘street dance,’ the genre that represents J-Hope’s roots as an artist, and it also symbolizes the path that he will continue to take with his fans around the world.
Last summer, J-Hope became the first BTS member to release a solo project with Jack In The Box. In February, Hybe released J-Hope In The Box, a documentary that sheds light on his journey as a solo artist. It captures the creative process of making his first solo album and unreleased behind-the-scenes of every footstep he took during approximately 200 days of his journey. Through the film, the global audience will be taken to his private listening party, Lollapalooza headliner stage as the first Korean artist and more.
