Global group BTS member Jimin has unveiled on Friday, July 19, his highly anticipated sophomore solo album, “MUSE”, alongside a music video for its lead single, “WHO”.
Featuring songs with the collaboration of artists Loco and Sofia Carson, “MUSE” is described to be a concept album, meticulously crafted to explore the complexities of love and self-discovery. The album reportedly follows a specific emotional journey, with each track building upon the last.
Opening track “Rebirth (Intro)” seamlessly connects to Jimin’s debut solo album, “FACE”, while setting the stage for a new chapter in his artistic exploration.
The album’s centerpiece, “WHO”, on the other hand, is a hip-hop R&B ballad that delves into the yearning for a love yet to be found. The song masterfully blends a beat with heartfelt lyrics expressing a desire for true connection. Its accompanying music video gave a captivating dance performance from the Korean idol.
Other tracks from the album include the track “Slow Dance” and pre-release singles “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” and “Closer Than This”.
Jilin is also set to debut a special performance of “WHO” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”.
