In the realm of music, artists from different corners of the world occasionally come together to create something truly special. Such is the case with the latest electrifying partnership between Filipino-Australian actor-singer James Reid and South Korean artist B.I.
Their collaborative track ‘Jacuzzi’ has been making waves and is now available on various music streaming platforms.
“I initially became a fan when I heard his song “Love Scenario” with his band iKON,” says Reid. “All of his music videos are so great and B.I has some great moves, so I was thrilled to meet him.’
‘Jacuzzi’ isn’t just a song though; it’s a cross-cultural celebration of joy, togetherness, and the exhilaration of spending time in an opulent atmosphere.
The infectious track pulsates with energy, encouraging listeners to embrace the carefree moments in life.
Reid’s contribution to ‘Jacuzzi’ showcases his versatility as an artist. His career in the international music scene has been characterized by continuous evolution and innovation. While he has made a name for himself as an actor and singer, this collaboration further showcases his ability to adapt and flourish in a rapidly changing musical landscape.
B.I, whose real name is Kim Han-bin, is a South Korean artist known for his versatile talents. He first gained prominence as the leader of the K-pop boy band iKON. In addition to his memorable performances, he has consistently honed his craft as a songwriter and executive producer on his albums and solo releases.
‘Jacuzzi’ was born through a collaboration with DJ Flict, a Grammy-winning producer renowned for his work with artists such as Cypress Hill, Wiz Khalifa, Meghan Trainor, and Fifth Harmony.
Most of the song was recorded in Los Angeles, with B.I contributing his verse remotely. This seamless blend of different cultural influences in music production is a testament to the boundless possibilities of cross-border collaborations.
