BTS member J-Hope has just become the first member of the K-Pop supergroup to achieve a solo entry in the Official Singles Chart Top 40.
J-Hope (real name Jung Ho-seok) reaches the impressive achievement with his newest single On The Street, a collaboration with the American rapper J Cole (who gains his ninth Top 40 career entry in the process today).
A lo-fi hip-hop song, On The Street serves as an ode to J-Hope's love for both the genre of hip-hop and street dance, taking him away from the pop idol status and back to his roots, back to (literally) on the street.
On The Street serves as J-Hope's first solo single of 2023, he previously released two standalone singles, More and Arson, in 2022 and has also collaborated with US-Latin pop princess Becky G and South Korean rapper Crush in other material. His debut solo album, Jack in the Box, was issued in 2022 and reached Number 67 on the UK's Official Albums Chart.
As far as the solo careers of the other members go, they have all committed to solo releases. So far, though, only three others have managed to chart within the wider Official Singles Chart Top 100; Jungkook's Stay Alive (89), Jin's The Astronaut (61) and RM's Indigo (45).
