The wait is almost over! Don Toliver and Speedy, featuring BTS’ J-Hope and Pharrell Williams, are set to unveil their electrifying collaboration, ‘LV Bag,‘ this Friday, marking a thrilling fusion of hip-hop and K-pop under the creative brilliance of Pharrell Williams. The track, which was first teased during Louis Vuitton’s Men’s Fall-Winter 2025 Fashion Show in Paris, has already stirred massive excitement across the internet.
Fashion and music collided in spectacular fashion when ‘LV Bag’ made its surprise debut on January 21, 2025, as part of the Louis Vuitton Men’s FW25 showcase. Curated by none other than Pharrell Williams–Louis Vuitton’s Men’s Creative Director–the runway soundtrack featured a stellar lineup, including the track ‘Bad Influence‘ by SEVENTEEN, ‘Timeless’ by The Weeknd and Playboi Carti, and even ‘One-Winged Angel’ from Final Fantasy VII.
However, it was ‘LV Bag’ that stole the spotlight. As Pharrell and designer Nigo took their final bow on the runway, the track resonated through the venue, setting off a chain reaction of anticipation among fans worldwide.
Don Toliver, known for his hypnotic melodies and genre-bending style, teams up with J-Hope, whose versatility as a rapper, dancer, and global icon makes him the perfect partner for this high-energy track. J-Hope’s role as a Louis Vuitton global ambassador added another layer of significance to the collaboration. Speedy, by all indications, refers to the Louis Vuitton Speedy bag, a fashion staple that has recently resurged in popularity, especially in menswear.
Pharrell Williams, beyond his role as the curator of Louis Vuitton’s fashion show, played a direct role in shaping ‘LV Bag.’ As a producer and featured artist, his signature sonic influence is expected to add an extra layer of richness to the song’s already dynamic soundscape.
Ever since its first play at the Paris fashion event, fans have been clamoring for an official release date. The song’s snippet quickly spread like wildfire across social media, with listeners dissecting every beat and lyric. Speculation reached a fever pitch when Don Toliver himself teased the track’s imminent release, finally confirming that ‘LV Bag’ drops this Friday.
This announcement has only intensified the excitement, with fans from both camps–BTS’ ARMY and Don Toliver’s loyal supporters–gearing up for what promises to be one of the most dynamic cross-genre collaborations of the year.
The release of ‘LV Bag‘ also sets the stage for an even bigger moment in J-Hope’s career. The BTS superstar is gearing up for his first solo world tour, ‘Hope on the Stage,’ kicking off in Seoul this March. This will mark his grand return to the music scene after completing military service in October 2024, making his involvement in ‘LV Bag‘ even more significant.
Don Toliver is showing no signs of slowing down either. Following the release of ‘LV Bag,’ the Houston-born artist is expected to roll out new music as he gears up for his next major project. With a track record of delivering hits like ‘After Party,’ ‘No Idea,’ and ‘Do It Right,’ Toliver continues to solidify his place as a dominant force in the hip-hop and R&B landscape. Additionally, rumors suggest that he may embark on a tour later this year, further fueling anticipation for what’s to come.
With its luxurious aesthetic, star-studded production, and boundary-pushing sound, ‘LV Bag’ is certainly shaping up to be a sonic masterpiece. Whether you first heard it on the Louis Vuitton runway or caught snippets online, one thing is clear–this is a release you don’t want to miss!
