j-hope of BTS has dropped his latest new solo single, 'Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel)'.
The single marks j-hope’s highly-anticipated first solo project in a year since the release of his special album HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1 in March 2024.
j-hope commented, “With this single having such a clear goal and direction, I feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. After much thought and effort, the song has finally come to life, and I truly hope many people will enjoy it.” Regarding his collaboration with Miguel, j-hope stated, “He is one of the artists I grew up listening to since I was young. I believed that Miguel's distinctive, and rich voice along with his unique artistry would blend seamlessly with the song, and as expected, it turned out amazing.”
Miguel added, “'Sweet Dreams' is really a nice reprieve, and I'm happy I got to pair with j-hope on his track.”
A soulful blend of pop and R&B, 'Sweet Dreams' expresses the desire to love and be loved. On the track, j-hope teams up with Grammy-award winning artist Miguel, further expanding his diverse portfolio of collaborators across numerous genres. The two artists showcase effortless chemistry with their smooth, groovy vocal performances blending seamlessly to perfect a chart-ready global hit.
The song's mesmerizing music video brings to life the fluttering thrill of falling in love through the whimsical imagery of a floating house in the sky that expands as love grows. j-hope is seen walking down the street as the floating house follows him. While the street feels more grounded in reality, the people he encounters on the street also seem to exude an otherworldly and ethereal aura. The alternating shots between the spaces symbolizing dream (the house in the sky) and reality (the street) blur the boundaries between the two. This concept is a visual ode to the track’s theme of a dreamlike love, fully enveloping viewers in its surreal, alluring ambiance.
j-hope is in the midst of his first-ever solo world tour, HOPE ON THE STAGE, which will feature a total of 31 shows in 15 cities across the world. Check his his Asia dates here.
