After years of building a world that’s larger than life, #JacksonWang (@JacksonWang852) is ready to begin anew.
With two albums and two impressive world tours, MAGIC MAN — a world built from darkness, chaos, and theatrical madness — is coming to a close and Jackson is stepping forward with a new sense of clarity and purpose.
In his latest Philippine cover, global star Jackson Wang sits down with Billboard Philippines to talk about slowing down and reconnecting with himself, exploring the truths he’s long avoided, and the creative freedom that comes with finally letting go of expectations.
“One of the things I realized [is that] a lot of songs that I sang in the past as Jackson Wang, I don't even know what it means. I started to realize a lot of those songs have nothing to do with me as a human, I just didn't want to live like that anymore,” reveals Jackson.
