Houston-born singer-songwriter d4vd is set to release “Always Love,” a long-rumored collaboration with Hyunjin of Stray Kids, this Friday, June 27, via Darkroom Records.
Blending d4vd’s signature melancholic sound with Hyunjin’s smooth, expressive vocals, the track unfurls like a cinematic love story, one laced with longing, hope, and resolution.
The collaboration has been a source of excitement for fans of both artists since early clues surfaced online. Hyunjin first expressed admiration for d4vd in a Teen Vogue interview, sparking buzz among fans. Not long after, d4vd returned the favor during a Korean radio interview, praising Hyunjin and hinting at the possibility of working together.
Since then, the two artists have maintained a supportive public friendship, frequently promoting each other’s music on social media and teasing fans with mutual shoutouts and behind-the-scenes glimpses. Their growing rapport, both online and off, has only heightened anticipation for “Always Love.”
A full timeline of their interactions leading up to the release can be found on X (former Twitter).
“Always Love” marks an exciting cross-cultural moment in pop and K-Pop collaborations, and fans won’t have to wait much longer to experience it—June 27 is right around the corner.
