Jay Park. AOMG

Popular hip-hop artist, B-boy star and TV entertainer Jay Park, also known as Park Jae-beom, will be releasing his second full studio album next month titled “Evolution,” according to an announcement by SidusHQ entertainment agency.

Despite his packed schedule, with regular appearances on TV programs such as SNL Korea and the second season of “Dancing 9,” Park has managed to consistently release a slew of EPs over the past few years. However, the upcoming album will mark the star’s first full album release in more than two years since he unveiled his first solo album “New Breed” in 2012.

On July 25 the artist released his most recent self-composed single “Na Na” featuring Loco.

Park recently wrapped up his first concert performances in Shanghai and Cheongdo, China. In commemoration of his soon-to-be released “Evolution” album, he will also be holding a showcase in Seoul on Sept. 2 at the Mecenatpolis Lotte Card Art Center.
