[Videos] Jay Park Keeps It Real: Free To Be Bad And Bold With Newest Music

Jay Park Keeps It Real
Though Jay Park has been busy tending to his SNL funny man duties, the 26-year-old hasn't forgotten about his musical responsbilities. The ex-boybander just dropped the MVs for his singles, "Joah," and "Welcome," and the comeback has fans in a complete frenzy. Aside from the body thrusts and shirtless shots, it seems to be more and more apparent that Jay Park is well on his way to giving K-pop a much needed facelift.

Since leaving his boyband days behind, the crooner has showed fans that not only does he possess the body of a Greek god, but he is a force to be reckoned with in a world where pretty boys and guyliner reign. From break-dancing the hell out of a dance floor, rapping, crooning out sensual R&B tracks, and seducing the pants off of his fans with a single verse, Jay is the fresh new breath of air to K-pop we all didn't know we needed.

What sets Jay apart from the handful of other artists out there is his artistic freedom to do the projects he wants. This advantage alone gives him enough room to wiggle around and create the career that he wants for himself. Fortunately, for him, his fans have shown nothing but undying support and love for their once bubblegum pop leader. Park's career has definitely been one for the books and aside from the controversy he's faced in the past, Jay's handle on his newfound fresh start has been an interesting one. For starters, he keeps it raw and real for his fans. "JAY PARK TV" is a true realistic look into his life as a mid-twenties dude who loves girls, hanging with his boys, and making his dreams come true. None of it is censored nor scripted and this is what sets Park a million miles apart from his fellow K-pop comrades in the battlefield. Who else in K-pop can have their own reality show and say whatever their heart desires without getting severely penalized for it? That's the freedom you get from having the "bad boy" reputation at the get go.

 Park's "Welcome," was essentially a 3 minute and 53 second video of him showing the world that he's here to rough up the K-pop game. Whether it's the risqué lyrics or the sexual physical gestures, Park's artistic statement was made loud and clear-he ain't here to play no petty boyband game. His music career has been slowly building up and with his recent track releases, it now looks like Park has finally found his niche and comfort zone.

With so many new groups popping up at every corner, it's up to each artist to make sure they stand apart from the line of identical toy soldiers; something tells me Jay Park will do just fine standing out amongst the crowd.

Since we're also the type to not censor good music and good videos, watch Jay Park's videos here:
