A futuristic post-apocalyptic world. A city in flames. This is what Jackson Wang offers us, emerging from the rubble, in his new clip “Cruel”.
We knew Jackson Wang on his catchy solo love songs like “Pretty Please”. We now discover a more rock Jackson Wang, with a slower track. He said in a BT PR brand press release regarding the track that it “really set a precedent for the path the narrative of the album was going to take, the way it was going to sound. We were working on many files before this one, but we had trouble finding a clear direction. “Cruel” is like a manifestation of the environments and the obstacles that we had to overcome at the time. »
The lyrics are in English, since the artist is bilingual because he is from Hong Kong and now that his joint contract with Got7 is over, he can easily adopt an international strategy, where he is enjoying growing success.
Remember that the singer is inscribed in history as the first Chinese soloist to have performed at one of the most cult festivals in the United States, Coachella!
The album “Magic Man”, produced in part by the artist will include 10 titles. It will be released on September 9, with a series of goodies such as a silver vinyl record, two collector’s editions of the album, clothing, boxes…
