The album consists of six tracks, including "Neuron," "I Wonder...," "I Don't Know," "On the Street (Solo Version)," and a dance remix of "What If...," originally featured on J-Hope's solo album from 2022. He participated in writing and composing all the tracks.
The lead track, "Neuron," pays homage to a dance crew where J-Hope was involved before joining BTS. It features Dynamic Duo's Gaeko and Yoonmirae and is influenced by old-school hip-hop from the 2000s, reflecting J-Hope's musical roots and aspirations for a fresh start.
Collaborations on the album include BTS bandmate Jungkook, K-pop girl group Le Sserafim's Huh Yun-jin, and American producers Benny Blanco and Nile Rodgers.
J-Hope, currently serving in his mandatory military service, is set to be discharged in October. Despite his busy schedule, he expressed dedication to the album, which he prepared diligently before enlistment, and gratitude for the support received throughout the process.
