[Review] Lee Jin Hyuk – 5ight

Lee Jin Hyuk just dropped his fifth mini-album ‘5ight‘. It’s been a while since his last mini-album, and we were looking forward to listen to what he has prepared this time. Jin Hyuk always surprises us with every comeback, so, let’s start this off and listen to this EP.

5ight

Starting off with the title track ‘Crack‘, Jin Hyuk opens this release with rock/pop vibes, and an amazing composition. The mix of beats and instruments is super dope. His lyrical delivery for this title track is fantastic and super catchy. For the music video he serves with his outstanding visual and eye catching sets, we get to see performer, the rock star and the angsty side of him, and we are here for it. Watch it below.

Hip-Hop beats and an immaculate vibe follow up in ‘EXIT‘. This single is a total anthem, his rap delivery is amazing. The changes of speed and tone are beyond cool, and the beats drops make this song smooth and captivating.

On a more playful note we get ‘TOY‘ and its lovely guitar riff and super cute lyric flow. For this single we definitely get to listen Jin Hyuk’s cutesy side. This single had me smiling with its pure serotonin.

Next up

Acoustic guitar and a rather magical composition follow up ‘Morning Call‘. For this single we get a mix of vocals and singing that make this song super charming and adorable. The acoustics are insane, and I really want to watch this song live.

Rooftop‘ plays off with a more trendy style, and a lot of hip-hop beats. The electric guitar in this single was a nice addition, and along with the back vocals and full flow made this track an absolute vibe.

Closing this EP we get ‘Jungle‘ with a rather wild an unexpected style that took me by surprise. This single is hip-hop baed and he delivers in every second of it. I loved how creative and fun this song is. Listeners are in for a surprise. A legendary way to end this EP.

Lee Jin Hyuk delivered once again with a mini-album that shows how multitalented he is and how he can navigate across many genres. Make sure to listen to this release here.
