Golden, the solo debut from Jungkook of the K-pop group BTS, features some long-anticipated collaborations.
Artists like Jack Harlow, Latto, DJ Snake, and Major Lazer are featured in some of the songs, giving the tracks more diversity and excitement. Among the 11 songs on the album, electronic, R&B, soul, pop, and rap are all covered.
Not only do the sounds vary, but so do the emotions. Songs cover topics like breakup, love, and hatred.
“Shot Glass of Tears” focuses on the burden of feeling numb to emotions, making it one of the more heartfelt songs on the album. “Standing Next to You,” meanwhile, presents a jazzy upbeat song that has matching choreography in the accompanying video, giving the song a more interesting rhythm.
The album portrays relatable emotions to the audience with the perfect beats to go with the lyrics, which should allow many listeners to relate.
