song rambles: Blood Sweat and Tears
I wanted to express how ensnared this song has had me for going on 7 yrs this october. Like when i hear the opening "nae pi ttam nunmul" like I am there, everything else is drowned out. I am only focused on this for the next 3:36. (and probs longer because I'll probably play it again)
So I thought about what would be the best analogy/comparison from my life and this is what I came up with.
The year is 2015 and you're in college. Its the middle of the night on a thursday and you're on a bus going back to your house. Your friends had decided to go to the club because it was throwback hits night and cover was free. Its now 2 am, you and 45 other students are on a bus heading back to campus. Lights are low, some ppl have fallen asleep on their neighbours, conversations are had in whispers as you leave downtown.
Then it happens, the bus driver's playlist has been playing mellow songs, atmospheric almost for the kind of colour rush haze these kind of not - drunk, drunk nights ascribe to. And his next song has just begun. Only it opens like this:
"how can you see into my eyes like open doors?"
and the bus is now awake. The 19 - 24 yr olds have risen, long gone is the tired eyes and sore feet. They are now a mass of emo kids singing their hearts out. And when the chorus hits?
They are jumping.
"wake me up inside" will be sung on loop as the crowds leave the bus at their respective spots. With no care for noise to neighbours, because the weary 20 yr olds have been transported back to their angst.
Very few songs have a chokehold like this on me, its the transportive capability of bst that has never diminished no matter how many times I hear it. And for those moments I'm nothing but one with the song.

Jack in the Box (HOPE Edition)

Its been 1 year of Jack in the Box and I am not okay
Cannot believe its been a whole year since J-Hope released his official debut album Jack in the Box. I remember leading up to the release of the More mv I was telling my friend that I thought we were going to go through a Rocktan renaissance. And then Hobi gave us an album that just spoke grunge and old school hip hop. When I tell you those teaser images came out and I was like oh okay, this this is speaking to my angsty childhood.
I sadly didn’t get to appreciate this album as much as I wanted to because on July 11th we had to put down my cat of 15 yrs. But I tried to be tuned in for streaming and votes, and I was more with it by Hobipalooza.
So today we revisit J-Hope, sorry Jay’s, debut album 😂
First order of business, I’m glad that the promotion and release cycle went the way Hobi wanted it to. But I will forever be wanting a cd cover with that KAWS artwork, its just so good!
BTS Episode: Album Cover Shoot Sketch
Standout tracks from this album for me were:
More, = (Equal Sign), What If… and Safety Zone
The Singles
The first introduction we had to Jack in the Box was through the release of the More mv on July 1, 2022. And the concept was definitely expressed. Hobi talked a lot throughout the promos about wanting to remove himself from the box of J-Hope, and see if he could still make music that would draw in people (paraphrasing), and for me he definitely succeeded.
BTS Episode: More MV Sketch
The Arson mv released on July 15, 2022, along with the album. It was a good title track to choose because it really speaks to the old - school hip hop with the kick snare beat.
Both of the mvs for this album really invoked to me at least, mvs of the late 90s early 00s. Lots of muted dark colour palettes, close shots and enclosed spaces. For More specifically he’s always surrounded by stuff and contained within 4 walls, illustrating the claustrophobia of being contained. In More he’s still trapped in the box looking for more; whereas in Arson Jack has escaped and has burnt it all.
The choices for the two singles could not have been picked better. They bookend the album thematically and literally. Opening with More showcases the rock elements Hobi will be using, and ending with Arson calls back to his hip hop roots.
Just recently for festa we were treated to an Arson rock version, and oh boy does it slap. It’s less kick snare, more drum fills and guitar riffs. So if you’re not super into hip hop but love rock definitely check it out!
Bangtan Bomb: JITB Listening Party
lol does anyone remember when we started seeing all the celeb stories about this party? what a time 😂
Hobipalooza
“You can call me Jay”
J-Hope headlined Chicago’s Lollapalooza on Sunday, July 31, 2022. He made history as the first Korean artist to headline a major U.S. festival. He drew a crowd of 100k to his 70 minute set at Bud Light Seltzer stage. He was A M A Z I N G!
I tuned in on weverse to watch his set and from the moment he popped out of the box he owned that stage. I’ve rewatched it a couple times since and every time its just as good. Highly highly recommend.
BTS Episode: j-hope @ Lollapalooza
J - Hope in the Box
(Can be found on Disney+ for streaming or can be purchased on Weverse.)
I’ve always loved documentaries and behind the scenes looks at creation of art. Watching the inception of JITB and the triumphant conclusion with Lollaplooza, showcased how dedicated J - Hope is to his craft. The contrast between the quiet montage of Hobi staring at his computer in the studio to the boisterous prep meetings and rehearsals demonstrates how his art is not made in a vacuum. It may begin as introspection but it eventually has to be shared and he can not control the reception of others. I really loved the ending where there’s a final ITM of J - Hope in a park on a sunny day in Chicago, having finished his set the night before. He speaks on his thoughts about how JITB rollout went and how it felt to finally perform as a solo act. If you haven’t already seen it you should, BH has always been good at delivering behind the scenes content and the editing on this doc was some of their best.
For the first official solo debut of a BTS I couldn’t have asked for anything better. J - Hope gave us an album that demonstrated a new side to him as an artist. For those who already loved his music, you received more amazing music. And for those who were new to him, you were introduced to a musician who loves to try new things and push the boundaries of his talent when he is already at the top.
Here’s to 1 year of Jack in the Box, and here’s to J - Hope!
If you’re interested in behind the scenes production looks etc. I’ve also linked the relevant Bangtan Bombs/Episodes.
