    Un album conceptual en el que jhope analiza lo que a aprendido durante los 9 años de su carrera y como esto construye su personalidad y sus valores, mucho más experimental que su mixtape hope world pero sin olvidar las ritmos que lo caracterizan

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is such a gem for someone like me who grew up listening to boombap a lot. The instrumentation throughout the whole album was just tremendously good, and as usual Jhope killing it with his amazing vocal. The song 'Stop' really brought me back to my teenage years, and when I heard ODB sample in 'What If', it almost brought me to tears!! I will treasure this album so much, thank you Jhope for such a beautifully crafted album from start to finish! Expand

    JITB reminds me of Old School Hip hop, meaningful introspective lyrics, resonating bass, tributes to the legendary artists that created the sounds. Authentic, unique, both hopeful and wary.

    When Jack in the Box was announced I was ecstatic waiting in anticipation for its release. j-hope not only is an amazing performer (rapper, dancer, singer), but his creative work as a songwriter is just magnificent from the music to his lyrics to his artistic vision.

    J-hope como artista, rapero, bailarin y compositor me sorprendió muchísimo con su álbum Jack In The Box, todo su contenido expresa un lado oscuro (o de malo) que no conocía pero que al final termino por enamorarme y que te llega en lo profundo.

    A mi me encanta el estilo diferente que maneja y en si la dedicación, incluso lo mejor fue que te da una introducción como de una historia para luego pasar a una canción "oscura", varias son disfrutables y hasta dan ganas de crear pasos.

    As a still pretty fresh fan, Jack in the Box was my introduction to Korean music and BTS. And wow was it an opener for me! It flows beautifully from start to finish and delivers some important messages throughout its entirety. My only wish is that it would be a little longer, but I’m sure it’s not the last time we hear something this good from J-hope.

    Whether the music on Jack in the Box suits your taste or not, it’s hard to dismiss this album as an artistic statement rather than just chapter 1/7 of BTS proving they can also make money in ways beyond official group releases.

    The artist born Jung Ho-seok delivers emotional depth and irresistible energy. Backed by rowdy production, his aggression, raspy delivery, and tongue-twisting bars take center stage, showcasing the rap-focused perspective that he brings to the BTS formula.

    There’s an excellent three track run from “What if…,” an energetic song that samples Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “Shimmy Shimmy Ya,” into mid-tempo standout “Safety Zone” before a touch of Hope World familiarity returns in the optimistic “Future.”
