On the 28th at 6 PM, Jay Park released his new single 'Jay Park Season 2' on various online music platforms.
'Jay Park Season 2' is the second album in the 'Jay Park Season' series, which chronicles Jay Park's musical journey. In this album, Jay Park showcases a more mature side as an artist, offering a unique appeal with music based on R&B sounds.
The title track 'Taxi Blurr' features a unique crossover of R&B and UK garage genres, highlighted by Jay Park's groovy vocals and addictive melody. The song was co-composed by SLO and Moon Sujin, with the trending girl group KISS OF LIFE's Natty adding synergy through her featuring. Natty's distinctive voice and captivating aura blend harmoniously with Jay Park's unique tone, enhancing the song's completeness.
The included track 'Chapter' is a down-tempo R&B song characterized by simple rhythmic piano playing, paired with sincere and straightforward lyrics and melody. This track offers an emotional impact with a sound quite different from Jay Park's usual style.
The music video released alongside the single has also captured the attention of music fans. The title 'Taxi Blurr' is a playful linguistic expression, implying both calling for a taxi and a dreamlike blur. The video presents a story where Jay Park and Natty appear to meet through a taxi, but it turns out to be a fantasy.
Additionally, the retro text and logo, yellow-toned colors, and split screens evoke nostalgia for the late 1990s and early 2000s. The choreography for Natty's part, featuring Honey J from the dance crew HolyBang, is of high quality and draws attention, while the pair dance between Jay Park and Natty adds a spectacular climax to 'Taxi Blurr', enhancing the visual enjoyment.
Jay Park's new single 'Jay Park Season 2' is available on various online music platforms. Jay Park will be performing 'Taxi Blurr' for the first time on Mnet’s 'M Countdown' on the 30th and KBS2’s 'Music Bank' on the 31st.
