    Realmente me fascinó el álbum porque hay muchos sonidos nuevos, desde la creación de Arson y More, hasta Stop y el más calmado Music Box. Lo recomendaría ya que es muy singular y eso me gusta mucho. Felicidades al artista que he escuchado trabajo mucho para lograrlo y en serio lo logró

    J-Hope is a Maverick and you never know what to expect from him. He is constantly trying new musical forms and complex arrangements without in any way feeling over produced. This album is his journey through life, with all the fears and questions it has. Something beautiful.

    Este es sin duda alguna, uno de los mejores álbums de Hip hop. Es una introspección a lo que es Hoseok y además también está su preocupación sobre en lo que se está convirtiendo el mundo. Cada una de sus letras tiene un significado profundo. Y lo mejor es que Hobi participó en cada detalle de este álbum.

    There is no more accurate way to describe this album than a masterpiece. It is disruptive, eclectic yet cohesive at the same time, philosophical, experimental, intimate, bold. With this album, j-hope confirmed that he is an artist and not just a K-pop product. An album that has no song to skip and that will remain a must even with the passage of time. Bravo!

    This album deals with a person's inner battle, full of passion and ambition, very honest lyrics from j-hope.

I would've liked to have seen Hoseok explore new lyrical themes as a lot of the songs are lyrical concepts we have heard him and BTS explore numerous times. The only tracks that stood out to me were MORE, Equal Sign, and Safety Zone, so I find the lengths of all of them disappointing (equal sign is 1:54?). A 10 song 21 minute album with two tracks that aren't songs-- one of which is just an instrumental that doesn't add anything to the album--saddens me. The production is clean as you would expect from a BTS release. I just unfortunately couldn't connect with it like I had hoped to. Expand

    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.”
