No matter what he’s called, the renowned BTS member has proven that he’s able to produce chart-topping tracks time and time again, amassing over 100 songs credited to his name. This includes songs he’s produced for his group, along with ones he’s made for other artists. Each one has been a certified banger and has gained much love and praise from the public. Now, the list might be long, but let’s take a look at some of these tracks produced by Suga that you definitely need to add onto your playlist.
1. PSY - ‘That That’
One of Suga’s latest produced tracks, PSY’s ‘That That’ took this summer by storm. Aside from being the post-pandemic party anthem, it gained much attention for featuring the BTS producing superstar himself! The song was catchy and addictive, able to make anyone get up and dance to the beat.
2. SuRan - ‘WINE (feat. CHANGMO)’
Pair SuRan’s sultry voice with CHANGMO’s vibey rap lines, on top of a SUGA produced song, then you get a certified hit. ‘Wine’ is a groovy hip hop and R&B track which talks about reminiscing about a previous relationship while drinking wine. The song brings forth a relaxed, laid-back vibe, making you feel as if you’ve had a few sips of wine.
3. Halsey - ‘SUGA’s Interlude’
American singer Halsey is known to be a big fan of BTS, on top of having a close friendship with the idol group. She’s collaborated with them, visited their office in Seoul, and has even defended them on Twitter. So it only makes sense that Suga was invited to take part in her ‘Manic’ album, which released in 2020. Featuring Halsey’s soulful vocals and Suga’s captivating rap verse, this soothing ballad track is a must have on any playlist.
4. Heize - ‘We Don’t Talk Together (feat. GIRIBOY)’
Amazing vocals? Check. Fire rap verse? Also check. Talented producer? Double check. ‘We Don’t Talk Together’ is filled with an undeniable yearning—and looking at the lyrics, it makes sense why. The addictive R&B track talks about a former couple that has grown apart. Now, when they meet, they no longer have anything to say. We definitely wouldn’t mind more collaborations of these three talented artists.
5. Epik High - ‘Eternal Sunshine’
Epik High is legendary in the hip hop scene. They’ve amassed numerous chart-topping tracks, went on multiple tours across the globe, and became an inspiration for many. In fact, the rap trio inspired Suga himself to pursue music and become an artist. ‘Eternal Sunshine’ is laid-back and smooth, but carries meaningful lyrics which talks about the struggles of life. At the same time, it is also filled with optimism and hope for a better tomorrow. Suga is the definition of a successful fan.
6. IU - ’eight’
When two top artists meet, a hit song is sure to be born. That’s definitely the case for IU’s ’eight’ which became an international megahit. The track is soulful and bright, but talks about the worries and struggles that come with the age 28. The song definitely brings on the need for self-reflection and sentimentality, but is worth listening to over and over again. Are these Suga produced songs already on your playlist?
