Park Jimin is an artist whose vocals have often been described as unique, beautiful, emotive, and powerful, and they add flavor to BTS's songs. On the 23rd of August, the singer was selected as the star whose vocals best represented K-POP and took the lead with 53.7% of the votes (52,624).
The survey ran from the 15th to the 21st of August under DC Inside, one of South Korea's largest internet forums in conjunction with AI solution company, My Celebs. Based on My Celebs, Jimin was linked on the site with various keywords that include 'outstanding,' 'romantic,' 'attractive,' 'emotional,' 'unmatched,' etc.
To illustrate the impact of Jimin's vocals. As reported on the 25th of August, Jimin was mentioned on the Japanese TV show The world unknown to Matsuko by famous pop singer Ayaka Hirahara alongside other popular mainstream and established Japanese singers for his high vocal tone. Ayaka, who is a successful singer well-known for her whistle register technique, recognized Jimin as a star with angelic and enchanting vocals that make listeners want to pamper him.
Indeed Jimin has been pampered with countless praises for his vocals. Recently Jenna Andrews and Candace Sosa, who have worked as producers and songwriters on some of BTS' songs, expressed their affection for him with Andrews, in particular, confessing her obsession with Jimin's voice which reminds her of The Jackson 5's. Jimin's vocals have been compared to those of the legendary Michael Jackson by several music experts like Gota Nishidera, Journalist Alphonso Van Marsh, Music critic Kim Youngdae and several vocals coaches and producers in the industry for their similarities.
Along with these have been world-class singers, celebrities, and experts in the music industry who have fallen in love with Jimin's honey-laced vocals, including American singer-songwriter Khalid, English actor & TV personality James Corden, Shawn Stockman from Boyz 2 Men, American Singer-Songwriter & personality Nicole Sherzinger, British musician Olly Alexander, Korean-American singer Ailee, AKMU's Lee Suhyun, Popular Korean singer Kim Yeon Woo, U-KISS' Kevin Woo, Japanese Singer-songwriter Murata Tomoya, Grammy Award-Winning operatic Soprano Sumi Jo and operatic tenor Lim Hyung Joo among others. They have been moved by Jimin's vocal ability calling it a national treasure, as was the case with Murata Tomoya, while others like Khalid, Ailee, Nicole Sherzinger, and more have expressed a wish to work with him.
As a testament to his incredible vocal and singing abilities, his songs continue to shine, with Promise being the most streamed song on SoundCloud with 287 Million streams currently and Filter being the longest-charting Korean solo song of 2020 at #14 in its 74th week. He is also dominating other major streaming platforms like YouTube and Spotify as he recently achieved a billion streams with his 5 solo audio tracks. Fans can only wait in excitement for when Jimin releases his solo work.
Instantly recognizable. There are singers with great vocal ranges and tones, but Park Jimin is in a class of his own. His utilization of techniques--vocal fry, belting, measured airiness, note control, vibrato--is so widely appreciated by citizens and music critics alike. Notwithstanding his incredible dancing, he takes on the toughest of notes and turns them into a unique beauty that he and only he can pull off. Heaven, healing, truth and sincerity--the way it comes out so preciously from his voice is a feat only Park Jimin can accomplish.
