“Should've Let Go” is Jackson's third single for the year following the success of his tracks “100 Ways” and “Pretty Please” back in March and September, respectively.

Take a look at the emotional music video below:

Yesterday, Jackson took to Instagram to share more about the song and thanked JJ Lin for collaborating with him on the released track.

He said, “I am thankful for what happened in the past and am grateful for the process. This is our story. I hope you guys like it."

Addressing JJ Lin, he added, “Besides music, I am thankful for what you've taught me in this journey of life.”

For his part, JJ Lin also thanked Jackson and even shared a piece of advice to their fans who could relate to the message of the track.

“Though shot separately, we wanted to capture the same feeling of regret,” he wrote on Instagram.

“I'm sure we all have things that we 'Should've Let Go,' but eventually the fond old memories we hold dearly in our hearts today.”

Besides his new single, the Hong Kong performer also released his latest merch under his company Team Wang, which breaks away from his previous fashion releases as it forays into the lifestyle department.

Named “The Cart,” Jackson introduces his version of a chic drinks cabinet that features a crocodile-effect leather finish, a metal logo, and a traditional lion head door buckle that is a nod to the singer's Chinese heritage.

A set of custom glassware accompanies the cabinet, including six red wine glasses, three champagne glasses, nine beer glasses, and a bottle opener that feature the Team Wang logo.

According to his company, the limited edition wine cabinet draws inspiration from airline bar carts as a symbol of his “inexhaustible pursuit of freedom and unlimited imagination.”

It added, “The design of the wine cabinet is inspired by the cart on the plane. It is always reminiscent of the time when we are flying in the air. Traveling in the vast sky without borders, without bondage, you can have endless inspiration and creativity.”

In a press release, it stated that only 50 pieces of “The Cart” were produced.
