The Magic Man tour will mark the Cruel singer’s first performance in front of fans since parting ways with the K-pop group GOT7.
While Wang is best known for being a member of GOT7, he has achieved solo success, becoming the highest-charting Chinese artist on the Billboard 200 with his first solo album Mirrors, which was released in 2019.
Magic Man is Wang's sophomore album, which reached the Top 15 on the Billboard 200 and the Top 13 on the Billboard Artist 100 in 2022. The highly successful 10-track album includes hits such as "Blue," which was recently released. The high-voltage album is heavily influenced by '70s rock and delves into the realms of toxic love and self-discovery.
More about the singer
Jackson Wang is the first Chinese solo artist to perform on the Coachella main stage in 2022. In August, he also performed at the HITC Festival's grand finale. Today, his large and growing fan base spans the globe, as he is dedicated to putting Chinese culture and music traditions on the map.
Wang founded Team Wang Records and Team Wang Design and has established an eponymous recording label and is involved in the entire music production process, including songwriting, arrangement, and music video production.
Earlier in the week, the singer was caught in mayhem. When the K-pop idol arrived in Malaysia for his appearance at 'We The Fest,' he was greeted by hundreds of fans at the airport.
As captured by the cameras that documented his arrival, people crowded around the former GOT7 rapper, making it difficult for him to even move. Apart from the artist, the guards also faced difficulty approaching the gate. Despite this, the MAGIC MAN singer politely asked the guards to "calm down" and not push the fans.
