Concept

The teasers have hinted at a cinematic masterpiece. Jackson has gone all out for it and if we didn’t know better it could look like the music video is a part of some action film. Full of fight scenes, fast sports cars, romance, explosion and melodramatic accidents, 'Drive You Home' has garnered high expectations.

Teasers and music video

Jackson released short music video teasers in which we get an idea of what the music video and the song will be like. With several scenes packed into the short 15 second clips, we see Jackson go through a myriad of emotions which is unlike his historical or 90s upbeat music videos that he has released before.

Watch the music video below.

First English album

‘Drive You Home’ is being released after the news of his second album dropping in November. It will be Jackson Wang’s first physical album, as well as his first English album. Previously, he’d released his first studio album ‘Mirrors’ which was in a digital format. Known for dropping several pre-released singles, this information might help us guess a part of the tracklist for his second album. ‘100 Ways’, ‘Pretty Please’ and ‘LMLY’ are all English singles that he has been releasing since 2020 and might be a part of his English album along with 'Drive You Home'. The album will have 12 songs.
