He officially left the group in 2010 and returned to the United States, which then marked the start of his solo career.
He created his own YouTube channel and uploaded his own version of Bruno Mars and B.o.B's "Nothing on You," which went viral and gained more than 2 million views in less than 24 hours. Since then, he has made four studio albums and became the recipient of various music awards, including the Korean Music Awards' Musician of the Year.
Recently, Jay Bum Park became the first Asian-American artist signed to Jay Z's label Roc Nation. His 2 Chainz-assisted song, "Soju," is his first song released under the label.
Upcoming Projects
"Soju" will appear on Park's upcoming EP "Ask 'Bout Me," due out on July 20. It's expected that "FSU" will be a part of the album as well under Roc Nation. Park remains one of the key people of the independent urban/hip-hop record label, AOMG.
