Two members of BTS has joined forces on a new song, “I Wonder.” The track is officially J-Hope’s and finds the rapper teaming up with Jungkook. The track appears on his Hope on the Street Vol. 1 album, which was released on Friday.
The tune features a funky, Eighties R&B-influenced backing track, built with Stratocaster-like bluesy guitar licks and thick synths, as the artists sing about all the things they wonder. Throughout the tune, they sing about love, trust, and togetherness, all with a little Autotune. “I wonder, wonder, wonder where we go, ’cause I want to, want to, want to keep you close,” goes one of the hooks.
J-Hope’s label, HYBE, previously released a statement explaining the idea behind the album and its song, “On the Street.” “The key motif of the track comes from the word ‘street,’ which can be interpreted as a place where many people’s everyday lives pass by — a metaphor for life,” it says. “It comes from ‘street dance,’ the genre that represents J-Hope’s roots as an artist, and it also symbolizes the path that he will continue to take with his fans around the world.”
The release coincides with a new six-part docuseries
