I can hear u/50Shadesof_brown busting a lung over this
Also! I will be doing my part by NOT listening to Beyoncé’s country album. Gonna be a yeehaw filled Hot 100 but we’ll try to get Hobi a great debut regardless.
Realising hits while ✨serving ✨ in the military is a different flex.
Halfway through the album, lock/unlock is 🔥🔥🔥 and JK’s vocals in I Wonder are so gorgeous 💜
I WONDERRRR 🤩🥰🥲😭💜
This album is a BOP. I love it so much, hobi sounds incredible.
Lock / unlock is sooooo groovy!!!! I’m obsessed! 😍
**i wonder…** – those are my boys 🙁 they know each other 🙁
**lock/unlock** – giving me disco vibes and I’m into it? And while I was typing this the guitar came in oh shiiiiit
**i don’t know** – starting off with French okay multicultural king! Oh shit deep register oh no it’s sexy oh noooo
**what if…(dance mix)** – well dang I think I like this more than the original
**NEURON** – listening without the MV and whew you can tell he put his whole heart into this one
‘i don’t know’ is mine I claim her sorry not sorry he made it for me specifically
Absolutely love Neuron, OMG
This is about to be blasting on repeat!! I need the weather to be nice and I need to acquire a car so I can bop to this with the window down!!
I FEEL ALIVE AGAIN ❤️🔥
– Started so strong I have to say on the street solo version is my favorite sorry J.Cole!
– I Wonder is a fcking BOP i could listen to that baseline for 10 minutes straight and hobi and JK sound so good 😭
– lock/unlock has me dancing in my room. the groove, that funky guitar, hobi’s falsetto AHHH just good vibes!!
– i swear you cannot listen to this album and stay still, that chorus of I Don’t Know??! The harmonies?! VIBES ✨
– “what if” brings me immediately to hobipalooza and this version was sosooo fire
– Hobi did it once again this album is so fresh, so him, so full of good energy. Neuron is THAT song and a perfect way to close. Yoon Mirae killed it in her verse.
I enjoyed listening to this so much! 💜
what an incredibly satisfying listening experience from start to finish. the 3 song run of i wonder…, lock / unlock, and i don’t know is all the chef’s kisses in the world
Such an amazing album! I think my favorite is his song with Yunjin but they are all great.
Yoon Mirae, what a queen.
This makes missing him a bit easier.
Haha hey what if he performed these live on tour
This is even more cohesive than JITB!
Like, the amount of artistry that this guy has is amazing
And he’s siiiiiiiiiiiiinging
I know where I’m going in the morning.
Target exclusive postcard

I have desperately wanted a solo of On the street, I’m so happy to have it finally.
Ok this EP is 🔥
I’m so happy
Also it’s super early my time and in my sleepy state I accidentally played What if (dance mix) on all the speakers in my house. No one but me was happy.
about to listen now and ugh can i just have this feeling of new bangtan music anticipation forever
excited for new road trip music ahead of the long weekend like i can tell this is going to be groovy af and go so hard live
y’all [if you wanna cry](https://x.com/eternalhyyh/status/1773575752182571231?s=46)
> “It’s a fansong containing j-hope’s sincerity stating that let’s continue to trust and love each other just like now, and enjoy every moment together.”
the lyrics of ‘i wonder’ is about him imagining the days where ARMY and BTS will be together again
Another 10/10 album from J-hope every song was just as good as the one before. I think my personal faves are lock/unlock and What if. I already liked the original version of what if, but the remix is even better in my opinion. All of the features of the album were great too I especially liked Yoon Mirae’s feature, that was definitely a highlight of the album for me.
J-hope really is just so special, he’s incredibly talented and releases such heartfelt and inspiring music that always puts me in a good mood. I NEED to see this man on a solo tour pleaseeee kpop gods 🙏🙏🙏.
Love every track, hard to say what my favorite is. Whole album is going to be on repeat ad nauseum for the foreseeable future.
it’s a nice listen. I enjoyed it 🙂
I haven’t made up my mind about my favorites yet, but based on initial impression after a few repeat listens, I genuinely like every track! No skips!
Another no skip from j-hope 🔥
I don’t know why my brain didn’t make the connection between “You just ordered an album” and “It’s going to be available online before you get your physical copy.” So glad to have seen the notification!
🥳🥳🥳🥳
Of course, love it! I haven’t given it my full 3 listens, but love hearing Hobi sing. Hell, just love his voice and hearing something he is passionate about and committed to.🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Glad to have a solo version of OTS! Just pure Hobi talking to us.
*Insert .gif of Jimin screaming “JEON JUNGKOOK!!”* Something extra tugged on my heartstrings when I heard our bunny’s voice! Love when they support each other on solo projects.
😭😭😭😭😭
I know nothing about Yoon Mirae other than that she’s a rapper and who her husband is, but the second she opened her mouth it was instant love–need to check out more of her.
I was also impressed by Yunjin–I heard LSF’s debut, and nothing since then, so I wasn’t sure what to expect
Love that my baby Pdogg is ALL OVER THIS ALBUM. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Need to go watch the video too!
HOBI ALWAYS COOKS. i love everything he puts out!
