J-Hope’s ‘Hope on the Street Vol. 1’ Is Here: Stream It Now

J-Hope keeps on spreading the hope. The BTS superstar unveiled his long awaited album, Hope on the Street Vol. 1, on Friday (March 29).

The six-track mini-album was described in a press release as spanning a “diverse array of sounds and moods that showcase j-hope’s musical prowess and depth.” It also features a number of special guests, including bandmate Jung Kook on “i wonder,” as well as Benny Blanco and Chic’s Nile Rodgers on “lock/ unlock,” a dance mix of “what if” with Jinbo the SuperFreak and “NEURON” featuring South Korean hip-hop vet Gaeko of Dynamic Duo and yoonmirae.

“NEURON” represents the name of J-Hope’s old dance crew from Kwangju. As the title track, it depicts the musician's journey told through his documentary series, 'Hope On The Street'.

The project follows J-Hope’s 2022 solo album, Jack in the Box, which peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. A newly expanded HOPE Edition of the album was released in August 2023. It features the original album tracks, along with three live recordings from J-Hope’s history-making performance at Lollapalooza in 2022 in Chicago, plus two instrumental tracks.
