Los Angeles, CA – November 28, 2017 — Superstar Jackson Wang’s last single, “Papillon,” climbed to second place on the iTunes and Apple Music charts for the second place in Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia, second only to Taylor Swift.
Jackson’s latest single, which he’s releasing on November 30th, “Okay,” follows the themes outlined in “Papillon,” and finding freedom in expressing your individuality. “Okay” explores what happens when we stop settling by accepting an average life and become who we truly are.
“Okay” opens with Jackson laying down a laid back, dreamy flow. From there, he builds to bigger, bolder beats, as if he’s discovering his true identity along with his listeners. At the end of the song, Jackson authoritatively declares that he is “feeling good right now”. “Okay” is the truest expression of Jackson’s belief that “No matter how frustrating and challenging life will be, I have to stand up and fight for my goals.”
“Okay” delivers Jackson’s unique style of Hip Hop that his fans have come to expect. As a hard-working artist and performer, Jackson is the primary creative force behind the new single as the lyricist and composer. He also arranged the track and was involved in planning the release, down to the last detail. Jackson takes his art seriously, and it shows.
The lyrics that Jackson wrote for “Okay” express all the doubts, confusion, and helplessness we feel when the divide between our inner hopes and the compromises that we are forced to make every day becomes too wide. By expressing this universal truth, Jackson has positioned himself to continue to create music that is not only catchy and fun to listen to but has the potential to help listeners all over the world become the best they can be.
His last single, “Papillon” triggered a lot of attention from fans and media across the internet. Jackson got over 1 million views on his latest YouTube video “Papillon” within 24 hours of release. On Weibo, the microblogging topic # Jackson Wang Papillon # attracted more than 59 million discussions and more than 27 million views within two days, and landed Jackson on the “Weibo hot topic list” and “Weibo hot topic Music.”
