Jackson Wang has once again proven himself a global force in the music industry with the release of his second full-length album, MAGIC MAN 2. Released on July 18, 2025, the album debuted at No. 13 on the Billboard 200—the highest chart position of his solo career to date, surpassing the peak of MAGIC MAN (2022), which previously reached No. 15.
Selling over 32,000 copies in its first week, MAGIC MAN 2 also dominated various charts, landing at No. 4 on Top Album Sales, No. 3 on Vinyl Albums, and No. 2 on Indie Store Album Sales. On Spotify, it debuted at No. 9 on the Top Album Debut US chart, further cementing its global presence.
What makes this album particularly remarkable is that every track was written, composed, and produced by Jackson himself. He described the project as a deeply personal reflection on the music industry, society, family, and his own reality. “This is a record of how I ask and answer myself about finding balance in the highs and lows of life,” he shared in an interview.
Music critics also praised the album. Zane Lowe of Apple Music called it “a project that captures the essence of humanity in modern pop music,” while Zach Sang of Amazon Music applauded its thoughtful craftsmanship.

“Thank you for giving me the opportunity to express myself.
Thank you being patient with me.

And one of the most touching responses read:
“Congratulations, Jackson! This isn’t just a number on the Billboard 200, it’s solid proof that a true Magic Man like you has poured his heart, soul, and everything he’s got into every song, every performance, every moment. You’ve truly earned this, without a doubt.”
Jackson’s influence extends far beyond music. He has graced the global covers of L’Officiel in 10 countries—including the U.S., China, Italy, and France—and has been featured in top-tier outlets like Billboard, Hypebeast, WWD, and NME. His song “Made Me a Man” quickly went viral on TikTok, while the single “GBAD” has been used in over 55,000 videos and amassed more than 32 million views on YouTube.
In 2023, he made headlines by performing three times as a solo artist at Coachella—an exceptional feat that even led him to top X (formerly Twitter)’s global trending list. Today, Jackson is more than just a musician. He’s the creative director for Nike and Jordan Brand, and a global ambassador for luxury powerhouses like Louis Vuitton, Cartier, and Hennessy.
With unwavering integrity, honest artistry, and the love of fans worldwide, Jackson Wang is not just a performer—he’s the embodiment of a Magic Man who’s found his way to shine.
