First off, we have to start by giving some flowers to the one, the only, Junkuk, as he just broke a massive record not only for Spotify when regarding streaming, but also in general. Because if you don't know, Junkuk is out here breaking all type of records becoming the first South Korean solo artists to land three top 10 singles. And of course, you could put the UK tag on it as far as the UK top 10 singles. But at the end of that day, this man is the first South Korean solo artist to land three top 10 singles. So with that being said, everybody and their mom is trying to get track with Junkook.

I mean, you see him with Lotto. I mean, you've been seeing him with Jack Harlow, of course. and then there was Central C and there's many more to come I believe as I believe he dropped two new remixes featuring David Guetta and M.K., if I'm not mistaken.

But the purpose of this segment is to talk about his latest or his upcoming release titled, Standing Next to You, as this will be the precursor to his solo debut on the Tonight Show

starring Jimmy Fallon, of course, on November 6th. So, Junkuk is gearing up for that. And also he's gearing up for his first solo album titled Golden, which if you don't know, is put out under big hit music entertainment, which is based out of Korea. But at the end of day, when you have a count managed by Big Hit, as you see right here, I think it comes to a sort of, certain understanding that if you blew up under this major label, sometimes you want to stay

under the mentorship that got you to this point. And when it comes to music, that ideology is non-existent, just to put it plain and simple. It's non-existent. People get hot, and then they realize that, oh, I could get this more acclaim of major label instead of staying with you, that got me here in the first place because obviously you don't know what you're doing because this major label has been on the top but you're the one who got me here but I don't understand how that type of logic plays out

but it happens often in the music industry so I'm very interested to see Junkh Cook being handled by big hit and I will wonder if any American major labels will step in to try to take Junk Cook away from them. The reason I'm saying that is because you don't get a Jack Harlow you don't get a lotto without some type of brand acknowledgement happening, right?

Whoever manages Lotto, whoever manages Jack Harlow, they probably are also sending, you know, things to Junk Cook for letting their artists be on one of his singles as that's a huge look for a Jack Harlow and for a lotto. I don't care what y'all think. Just because we're in the States doesn't mean we have the biggest musicians. Junk Cook by far. is one of the best performing artists of 2023. And that goes back to my point of him having the top three,

the first South Korean solo artist to land three singles in the top 10. All right. So with that being said, he's rolling out to his album title Golden, set to be released tonight at midnight. also his previous collaborations with Lotto, which is called 7. Broke records, of course, becoming the fastest song ever on Spotify

to reach one billion streams. I know. The fastest song ever to reach one billion streams on Spotify. And then Junk Cook's collaboration, including 3D with Jack Hollow, and Too Much with Central C and the Kila Roy, have also been or had significant impact on the charts as it makes him the first Korean

artists to have three singles in the top 10 of the official UK singles chart and I keep reiterating that fact because that is insane. Like that's literally paving the way as a pioneer. Like imagine the first hip-hop artist to ever start competing with the country and huge rock musicians. That's the same lane that we should look at Junk Cook when it comes to K-pop.

And with that being said, Click my link tree in my bio. Let me know in one of my social medias. What do you think about John Cook putting out his track title standing next to you at midnight? And will you be giving it a listen?
