    This whole album gives great singles but also builds a whole story that will only be appreciated while listening top to bottom. The story telling is truly unmatched, paired with great production and exquisite ad-libs. Even more amazing is the fact that J-hope performs this all at lollapalooza flawlessly. A breathtaking body of work from an amazing singer, rapper and performer.

    the criticism along with its position on the charts matches very well how this album was produced in the most professional and unique way possible! the vocals and creativity of j-hope and his team related to songs that are so different from each other and with such an important message do deserve more recognition and love, cause that's exactly what this album is about. love.the criticism along with its position on the charts matches very well how this album was produced in the most professional and unique way possible! the vocals and creativity of j-hope and his team related to songs that are so different from each other and with such an important message do deserve more recognition and love, cause that's exactly what this album is about. love. congratulations j-hope and his team for doing an amazing job and for having an unparalleled stage presence and performance!… Expand

    Jack in the box is not your ordinary album. You know that the songs were carefully chosen, even the order of arrangement is amazing. I love all of the songs. It is my playlist when I'm travelling or waiting for a friend in a date. Bought 5 digi albums and gifted to friends and they were all happy. Good job, j-hope!

    This album has very good songs, if you listen to "equal sign =l" and "future" they are songs that convey a positive message of respect

    I LOVE JACK IN THE BOX!! The darker and rockier style was a pleasant surprise, after all I loved this style since long before. I find that JHope's voice matches the style very well (especially on Arson), I really love his voice. Regarding the lyrics, JHope is always very personal and tries to explain his feelings through his music! To avoid spoilers, I recommend you to compare between JITBI LOVE JACK IN THE BOX!!

    Definitivamente este álbum es tan magnífico, es una esperanza hacia el futuro. La lírica compuesta por rap y Hip Hop es tan magnífica y ni hablar de la letra. No me gusta el género, pero este álbum me hizo amarlo. Es un complemento hermoso

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Este álbum contiene no sólo un sonido nuevo y único a través de mezclas del hiphop de antes de los 200, sino que es capaz de producir una sensación tan genial, cada vez que lo escucho. Amo este álbum, aunque haya sido estrenado el año pasado, no es música que pueda pasar de moda, porque sus ritmos y letras son permanentes. Sus letras y el crecimiento del compositor, para mí son un consuelo, de que todos somos iguales, tenemos los mismos conflictos o miedos, las mismas incertidumbres y certezas. A través de su relato reconforta mi alma y eso no cualquier álbum lo produce, sino que un álbum que fue hecho desde la sinceridad como es Jack in the box. Gracias j-hope por tremenda joya!… Expand

    Este álbum no tiene ningún “skip”, me encanta escucharlo de inicio a fin, para ser sincera mi canción favorita y la que más me sorprendió fue “What if…” pero siempre me gusta escuchar “Equal Sign =“ a la gente que conozco como recomendación, ¡y siempre a todos les gusta! muy buen álbum, es diferente a sus anteriores mixtapes, pero toda su discografía es muy buena.

    Despite what troll reviews are saying, this was a fresh album and I loved each song, particularly 'Equal Sign', 'Arson', and 'Future'. Not only does the album carry good and personal messages, it's sure to get you up and moving, whether it's to jam out or to give you motivation to be productive! I love that it's so different and not at all what was expected from him (in a good way).

    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.”
