V of BTS announces ‘Layover’ solo album

V of K-Pop super group BTS will release his first solo album “Layover” on September 8. The album “Layover” comprises a total of six tracks: “Rainy Days,” “Blue,” “Love Me Again,” “Slow Dancing,” “For Us” and a bonus track. BIGHIT MUSIC recommended fans listen to the album in order from tracks 1 through 5.

The lead single “Love Me Again” is a captivating R&B track that is based on 1970s soul sound with gospel and jazz elements. V’s low-pitch voice enhances a dreamy vibe that lingers long throughout. V’s first official music video for “Love Me Again” on HYBE LABELS’ YouTube channel. Shot inside a cave in Majorca, Spain, the music video exudes a mysterious mood and highlights V’s voice as if it’s resounding inside the cave. The overall set up including the lighting and minimal cut transitions of the video make it look like a live performance piece. The retro camcorder shots amplify the emotions depicted in the song, the nostalgia for a past love.

The album’s first track “Rainy Days” is an alternative pop R&B track. A perfect mix of vintage percussion and modern drum sounds gives off a unique vibe. The music video for “Rainy Days,” also unveiled at the same time as the music, depicts V spending a calm ordinary day. Everyday moments, such as waking up, making a meal, working, and napping, naturally meld in with V’s distinct timbre.

V’s first solo album Layover is set to be released at midnight ET on September 8.
