Youngjae The 1st Mini Album [COLORS from Ars]

Youngjae, the main vocalist of GOT7, announced his solo debut with his first mini-album [COLORS from Ars].

This album [COLORS from Ars] contains a total of 7 songs, including the title song 'Vibin'.

'Ars' in the album title is the name of the artist Youngjae uses when composing and writing lyrics. It was quoted from the Latin proverb 'Ars longa, vita brevis', which means 'art is long and life is short', and it contains the meaning of gifted people, 'I want to be a wonderful person who does art'.

Youngjae showed off his talent as an artist generously by participating in the writing, composing, and producing of all songs in this album filled with sweet yet powerful vocals. After a long period of thought and work, he successfully took his first step as a solo artist by creating an album with a high level of perfection that is hard to believe is his first self-produced album.

영재(Youngjae) The 1st Mini Album [COLORS from Ars]

갓세븐(GOT7)의 메인보컬 영재가 첫 미니앨범 [COLORS from Ars]로 솔로 데뷔를 알렸다.

갓세븐 멤버 영재로 보여줬던 모습과는 또 다른, 새로운 색깔들을 가득 담아낸 이번 앨범 [COLORS from Ars]에는 타이틀곡 'Vibin'을 포함해 총 7곡이 수록되어 있다.

앨범 타이틀 속 'Ars'는 영재가 작사, 작곡 시에 사용하는 작가명이다. '예술은 길고 인생은 짧다'는 뜻의 라틴어 명언 'Ars longa, vita brevis'에서 인용했으며, '예술을 하는 멋진 사람이 되고 싶다.'는 영재의 뜻이 담겨있다.

영재는 감미로우면서도 힘 있는 보컬로 채워낸 이번 앨범 전곡의 작사, 작곡과 프로듀싱에 참여하며 아티스트로서의 역량을 아낌없이 발휘했다. 오랜 고민과 작업 끝에 첫 셀프 프로듀싱 앨범이라고는 믿기지 않는 완성도 높은 앨범을 만들어 내며 솔로 아티스트로서의 첫발을 성공적으로 내디뎠다.
