Ladies and gentlemen, the one and only, John Cook is back again to bless our ears with his latest track titled Never Let Go.
Now, of course, this is being released a week before Festa, BTS's annual celebration.
And basically, John Cook promised and he delivered as he wanted to give a gift to his fan base called the Army after being moved by a fan written song.
during the 2023 weverse live so that being said this track is co-written by
John Cook and seven others now as far as the cover art features paper
impressions unfolding into the BTS logo with handwritten hand writing resembling
John Cook's and then the opening because if you look at the overall cover of
their track never let go you can kind of see what i'm talking about anyways and then follows into the
bt s logo with handwriting resembling junk cooks and then people who wonder what type of style
you are here with this particular song because they definitely switch it up if there's one thing that
bt s is great at and as a group and individually is switching up to style so it doesn't sound monotonous
as far as when you get into it anyways this specific track opens up with them more of a robotic sound and
transitions to Junk Cook's bread and butter when it comes to falsettos and adverbs.
So as far as lyrics, Junk Cook portrays the army as far as his fan base, as his guardian angel
and expresses a lot of vulnerability, gratitude, and, you know, of course, a deep connection
with the fans.
And when you get into the bond that BTS and their fan base army has,
It's honestly one of the most loyal connections that's not seen too often in other genres.
Because if you go away for a certain amount of time, fan bases are usually fickle and they will dwindle as far as the overall count of them.
So for BTS to have individual members still being able to come out, put out music, and have it have the full support of the army.
Because everybody knows when you're with a group and you branch off,
sometimes the fan base don't really like how you are trying to separate yourself.
You're trying to separate yourself from the group and they won't support you as much.
For BTS, all of the individual members who have came out, granted, is because, you know,
most, well, I think all of the members have to serve mandatory military service.
and I think most of them are almost done with it.
I think Jen is the latest one to be discharged on June 12th.
But yeah, at some point, they all will be done with the mandatory military service,
but they have to serve it.
You know, it's not like something you can get around.
So that is why they're coming out individually to put out musical offerings.
But even keeping that mind, people are still coming out in droves to enjoy what
Junk Cook is offering the masses as with their previous with Junk Cook's previous album Golden.
It was released all the way back in 2023 and definitely had a lot of hard hitting tracks on there.
I mean, had the likes of Jack Harlow, Lotto.
I mean, Lotto 7 to the day, which was a Junk Cook track is still on the top of her profile list.
So that should tell you something.
That track put up significant numbers when it come to the chart.
So if there's one thing about Junk Cook is that he's going to be coveted by other popular artists during this rollout because he's shown that he can impact the masses solely by himself.
So just guess what will happen when the entire group of BTS come back in 2025, which is what is slated to happen.
That's the date for when everybody will be done with the military, the mandatory military service.
So, you know, as far as the emotional connection with Junk Cook and his army, I think it's something to behold because a lot of fan bases nowadays are very fickle to the point where Junkook's commitment to Army and vice versa continue just to show the bond of
BTS and their fan base,
but really just the overall K-pop community
shows how loyal they can be
when it comes to this musical creation.
So with that being said,
click my link to your in my bio.
Let me know on one of my social media is,
what do you think about John Cook's track?
Never Let It Go.
And also, if you've listened to the track
and listen to other individual tracks
from the BTS members,
which BTS members?
is your favorite.
