Jackson Wang's Hate To Love OUT: Singer goes for no dance, just darkness and deep emotion ahead of MAGIC MAN 2 drop
Unlike his usual performance-heavy visuals, the music video for Hate To Love strips everything down to the essentials. It features Jackson seated alone in a shadowy space, dressed in dark-toned attire, and delivering emotionally charged lyrics. There is no choreography or grand visual effects. Instead it highlights the stillness of sorrow and the weight of vulnerability.
MAGIC MAN 2: An album in four parts
MAGIC MAN 2 will feature 11 tracks in total, with a strong thematic focus on grief, loss, and healing. Jackson has confirmed that the album will be divided into four distinct sections. Each part will represent a different stage of emotional reckoning, from denial to acceptance.
The pre-release journey began in February with High Alone followed by the bold, experimental GBAD and its trio of remixes. Jackson then surprised fans by collaborating with Indian superstar Diljit Dosanjh for BUCK, a vibrant fusion of East and West. Now, with Hate To Love, the tone has shifted dramatically, reflecting melancholy and emotional struggle.
Full tracklist of MAGIC MAN 2
Here is the complete list of songs confirmed for Jackson Wang's third studio album:
High Alone
Not For Me
Access
BUCK (featuring Diljit Dosanjh)

About Jackson's solo career
Jackson Wang first rose to fame as a member of GOT7 in 2014. However, his solo career quickly carved a unique space in the global music scene. In 2017, he founded his own label, Team Wang, to have full creative control over his artistic direction.
His debut English album, Mirrors (2019), topped Billboard's Independent Albums chart and received wide international acclaim. His second album, MAGIC MAN (2022), introduced fans to a darker, cinematic rock aesthetic.
Jackson described MAGIC MAN as a mirror to his inner chaos, a record born out of his personal emotional turbulence. Now, with MAGIC MAN 2, he's continuing that journey. This time unmasking layers of sorrow with even deeper emotional clarity.

Veteran actor Paresh Rawal faced online trolling after revealing that he consumed his own urine in an attempt to recover from a fractured leg. The revelation triggered a wave of reactions on social media, with many users mocking the actor and calling his actions 'dangerous.' Rawal has now addressed the controversy. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, the actor said, 'I haven't offered them (urine), right? Or are they having a problem because I didn't offer them? Are they feeling, 'Yaar yeh akele pee gaye aur humko nahin diya?!'' He added, 'It's an incident of my life which took place 40 years ago. Woh maine bol diya. Usme kya ho gaya? People enjoy making a mountain out of a molehill. Karne do unko mazaa!' Rawal claimed that a lot of people approached him after his statement about drinking urine. 'A lot of people have, but I don't want to get into it.' In the same interview, Paresh Rawal also addressed his earlier statement in which he referred to Akshay Kumar as a colleague rather than a friend. ALSO READ | Farah Khan says she has shifted cook Dilip's kids to English medium with one of them even learning culinary skills: 'Show chal pada toh maine shift kar diya…' He shared, 'I simply said that he's a colleague. When you say 'friend', it means those whom you meet 5-6 times a month and whom you talk to several times a week. Moreover, neither Akshay nor I are social. So, there's no question of us bumping into each other at any party. Hence, I called him a colleague. And this resulted in (speculations). People are asking, 'Kya ho gaya (aap dono ke beech)?' Arre bhai, kuch nahin hua.' Paresh Rawal's controversial urine statement Speaking to The Lallantop, Paresh Rawal said, 'Veeru Devgan had come to visit when I was in Nanavati (hospital). When he got to know I was there, he came up to me and asked what happened to me? I told him about my leg injury. He told me to drink my own urine first thing in the morning,' Veeru Devgan also recommended that Paresh Rawal should avoid alcohol, red meat, and smoking during the healing process. Rawal added, 'I had decided if I had to drink my own urine, I'll not have it at one go; I'll sip it like beer. Because I want to do it properly. I did this for 15 days. Fifteen days later, when the doctor took my x-ray, he was shocked. The doctor asked me, 'How did this cementing happen?' He could see a white line forming. I was supposed to be discharged in 2-2.5 months, but I was discharged in 1.5 months. It was like magic.'
