To commemorate the 10th anniversary of his groundbreaking, hit single, “MOMMAE,” global R&B icon, Jay Park, delivers “Keep It Sexy (MOMMAE 2),” a bold new rendition featuring K-pop star, JEON SOMI. Out today via MORE VISION, the track captures Jay Park’s signature sensuality and his global presence in the R&B genre over the last decade.
The original’s striking synth-driven sound is reimagined through a tech house lens, bringing a fresh, modern twist. JEON SOMI, known for standout performances on “Fast Forward” and “DUMB DUMB,” adds a captivating, sleek vocal touch. Paired with Jay Park’s undeniable charisma, the result is a track that embraces the original’s DNA, while giving it a cool, new attitude.
With 180 million views on YouTube, “MOMMAE,” which was released on Jay Park’s 2015 album, WORLDWIDE, broke industry standards and cemented the Korean American star as a powerhouse hitmaker. The track has grown into a nostalgic, party number and continues to be one of Jay Park’s most viral songs, including on TikTok.
“Keep It Sexy” comes ahead of Jay Park’s upcoming, two sold-out, arena shows in Seoul on May 24 and 25, 2025. Later this summer, he’ll be touring Asia and Oceania, including dates in Sydney, Melbourne, Manila, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Jakarta and more. 2025 proves to be another momentous year for Jay Park, which includes last week’s official music video release for “Mayday,” featuring Ty Dolla $ign.
As one of the biggest global names in entertainment, Jay Park has established an illustrious career as a recording artist/performer, entrepreneur and CEO of renowned Korean music labels. He's worked his way into the upper echelons of the music industry, both in the US, where he became the first Asian artist signed to Jay-Z’s label, Roc Nation, and in South Korea, where he is a top 1% streaming artist. He helped define the Korean hip-hop scene and ushered in the mainstream acceptance of the genre, especially through the success of AOMG and H1GHR MUSIC, two labels he founded in 2013 and 2017, respectively.
With his latest label venture, MORE VISION, launched in 2022, Jay hopes to explore new avenues and shift the industry with unconventional approaches. Jay’s knowledge of how to build a career from the ground up is second to none, having engineered his own success through the release of hit songs like “MOMMAE,” featuring Ugly Duck, and “All I Wanna Do,” featuring Hoody and Loco, which together have well over 200 million views on YouTube. He was honoured with the “Game Changer” Award by the Smithsonian at its Celebration of Asian Pacific Americans in 2019 for his impact. His accolades include revitalising the spirits industry with his top of the line soju brand, WON SOJU, which sold out at a record rate and is establishing itself as a global brand and he has continued to make waves in the fashion world, being named a Gucci Global Ambassador in 2023. The busy multi-hyphenate excelled in his business endeavours while remaining one of the highest streaming artists in Asia. With nearly 16 years under his belt, Jay Park has proven time and time again that he’s the best at what he does and 2024-2025 sets a new chapter for the trailblazer.
