As mentioned, BigHit will release three tracks from the BTS World OST ahead of the official launch of the upcoming BTS mobile role-playing game, BTS World, on June 26. We got the first track, "Dream Glow," a collaboration between Charli XCX and Jungkook, Jimin, and Jin, a couple weeks ago. Then we got "A Brand New Day," a collaboration between Zara Larsson and V and J-Hope, last week. And today, we got the third track titled "All Night," a collaboration between American rapper, Juice WRLD, and RM and Suga. I stayed up until 5:00 AM to download it on Apple Music the moment it launched. Upon first listen, it has a very familiar vibe, a kind of '90s hip-hop feel that I love. Both RM and Suga have great timbre and flow in this song, with RM singing about his love of making music and Suga delivering lyrics about having to struggle to reach your dreams.
But the moment Juice WRLD appears on the song, it immediately brings us back to the current hip-hop scene, with lots of synth and AutoTune on the vocals. Quite frankly, the constant repetition of "All night" gets really annoying, and his verse has nothing to do with the original theme of the song or BTS World in general, which is about always having hope and never giving up on your dreams. (Kinda corny, I know, but the whole premise of the BTS World game is to become BTS' manager when they're trainees and get them to successfully debut.) Juice WRLD's verse is, randomly, about his relationship with a girl, and is essentially one big sexual innuendo ("Love the way you take it off, on my rocket, you takin' off"). I really feel like this song could have done without the collaboration aspect. No disrespect to Juice WRLD, of course. I just feel like his part is really out of place in this song and the soundtrack overall.
