The "Golden Maknae" Jung Kook of BTS collaboration with Usher, Kid Laroi, Charlie Puth, and Jack Harlow
Hello dear Hivers and music lovers around the world, how are you doing? Hopefully, you are all doing great. I once mentioned that I would make music content about Jung Kook BTS, especially his debut album entitled Golden. I'm very excited to discuss it with you. Jung Kook, a singer from South Korea who started his career with the group BTS, brings a different nuance to the world of music.
I love Jung Kook the first time I knew he was a member of the famous Korean boy band BTS, he is the most prominent of all the BTS members, that’s why he has nickname “Golden Maknae” which means the youngest golden boy because of his endless talent, only his handsome face but his golden voice, and he is good at dancing. He is truly a multitalented artist, he can perform perfectly, sings stably on stage while dancing perfectly, he shines like a star on stage.
As the center of the group, for 10 years since his debut, he has continued to prove his abilities with various performances in groups and solo. However, not only that, Jungkook is actually also talented in rap, you know. At the beginning of his debut, Jungkook often showed his rap skills on several BTS songs such as "No More Dream”. Apart from that, during his promotion for the single "Seven", he also included Latto's rap several times in his live performances.
Jungkook continues to make brilliant achievements in his Western collaborations. Starting from collaborating with Latto, Jack Harlow, Kid Laroi, Major Lazer, DJ Snake, Charlie Puth and most recently with Usher to dominating global music charts. These are some of the songs that have been made and are on YouTube in collaboration with Jungkook with extraordinary singers from abroad.
Standing Next to You is the first song from Jungkook's first solo album. Only Jung Kook sang the original song and then it was made into a collaboration with Usher which makes this song cool and sounds different. Jungkook and Usher performed optimally with synchronized singing and dancing. Usher begins his catchy verse with the lyrics, "Stop, can you feel that." I think this version is smoother and fresher music than the original song. Standing Next You is a song with a retro funk rhythm. The song tells the story of someone who is committed to staying with his lover in any situation, even the most difficult times.
What's interesting about this collaboration between Jung Kook and Usher is that it carries a song theme like Michael Jackson's songs. When I heard this song for the first time, I was like oh this music kinda remind me of Michael Jackson! Then I saw the music video, the dance moves also look alike Michael Jackson's. That’s why one of the reason Usher glanced at him and excited to collaborate with Jung Kook. The music video for Usher's remix version of the energetic song "Standing Next to You" has also been shared via the Bangtan TV YouTube channel since a month ago and has received 26 million views. Wow!
Next song, is 3D by Jung Kook feat Jack Harlow. I want to little bit discuss about the lyrics because it is interesting. This song is about expressing the desire to have a real physical relationship with someone because they have been in a long distance relationship for a long time or can only connect virtually. So, he wants this relationship to be more than that because a long distance relationship cannot overcome the longing that has been suppressed or feeling dissatisfied.
In the first verse, the singer says he is in contact with someone who is limited by distance. The lyrics also say two dimensions, which means their relationship is only virtual and not real, and the singer wants the relationship to be physical
In the chorus, the singer is ready and willing to do something more real and physical. "3D" means something that is real or direct and face to face in 3 dimensions. he would love to meet her in person and it would be an unforgettable experience and he can guarantee that there will be no regrets.
In the second verse, the singer feels strong chemistry with the girl. He uses several metaphorical or figurative sentences to convey the intoxicating and exciting nature of the relationship. In the rap part, Jack Harlow conveys his perspective that it is very easy for him to get women with all his fame, but he is looking for something more than that.
The title of this song is Left and Right, Charlie Puth feat Jung Kook. This music video has 394 millions views and it proves that the song was incredible. There is one cool thing here, Charlie Puth said that Jung Kook can only speak a little English while he can't speak Korean at all. However, Charlie admitted that the language barrier between them could be resolved and was not a problem because of the music. Music is extraordinary because through the language of music everything becomes easy.
The song and music video Too Much involves three talented young musicians across countries, The Kid LAROI, Jungkook and Central Cee. This energetic collaboration enlivened the international music world. So, what do you think about this song and music video? :)
So that's my music content about Jung Kook collaboration, who is extraordinary at being able to collaborate with musicians from abroad and he is very well accepted in the world of international music. As a fan, I also feel very proud of his achievements and it's not in vain to be a fan of him.
I hope you like the songs from Jung Kook that I recommend and thank you also to everyone who always supports me in this community.
Have a nice day!
