@@smartjunayd what I wrote means that Agust D or at least this song it falls under the category of hip hop. What would be the genre if not hip hop? And whats 'real hip hop' anyways?
@@smartjunayd i think it's really pointless to say "real something" in the music world. Music changes and evolves continuisly. There's not real anything, there's just music and it's infinite shapes. It's like saying Einaudi is not real classical music because classical music died with Mozart, and that's not true.
@@sensitivethug7 real Hip hop still exists nowadays, you just gotta look for it. Dreamville , TDE , Eminem , Royce , NF, Tech etc etc but nowadays what’s popular is garbage like 6ix9ine and Lil Pump who really can’t rap, all they rap about is drugs money sex jewelry etc on good beats and that sells Them, but real Hip-hip still exists and yeah this is also in the genre. As you said., hip hops downfall started after the 2010s, that’s when these SoundCloud rappers got big cuz children would make anyone popular easily, from Ricegum and Logan Paul to 6ix9ine, Lil Pump , Lil Xan lol, and I’m from this generation and I don’t get it, atleast we still have some artists making actual music that requires skill and talent
@@smartjunayd okay I see what you mean. I may not agree with it entirely cus as the other commenter said.. Would that mean classical music created these days wouldnt be called classical music? But yea as far as the mumble rap goes Im not fond of that trend. Definately it can be separeted even by subgenre. What I also meant is that many haters calls Agust D kpop when its not because the music falls in the hip hop genre. I recommend you to listen to his full album and check the lyrics out while he will never be OLD hip hop. Its still is hip hop and he mixes in some songs with others genres but he spits fire and truths. I recommend you to listen to Strange and check the lyrics out if you havent heard it.
RIGHT?!?! Yoongi and of the boys in fact are super amazing and i cant wait for KTH1 and JJK1 as well that is what they are calling their mixtapes right?
Fr! I was never a fan of rap until I first became an ARMY back in 2016. BTS' rap line, but especially yoongi made me appreciate rap. Just one day and yoongis rap at the start to this day is one of my faves, and the song that got me into BTS.
Daechwita (대취타) is a group of traditional instruments that are played during the king's ceremonial processions. it was performed during military marches or when the army won the war. only the military was allowed to play it at the time. but here 대취타 itself is turned on its head as a symbol of rebellion against the severe king. the executioner is on the rebellion side to, you can see him and Yoongi's character meeting eyes in the village in the beginning of the mv. and also notice that all that black clothed people which were kneeling to the king (but were still humiliated) in the end shaking their heads to the rebellion leader singing Daechwita. they support him out of choice, not fear or force. they don't want their king too the king is aka Agust D: he is blond like Yoongi was during his first mixtape "Agust D", that got him an immense fame. a quote from the song "The Last": "And Min Yoongi? I killed him" - this is Agust D words about getting through the hardships and use them to fire the greed that was a weapon to get to the point he is today. he had to create a persona that could take it and shrug everything off. so Agust D is the persona that gave him power and fame, took him to the heights he's at. The king is full of himself, he is rough, doesn't care about those who's below him, killing people if he doesn't like them (execution scene, boxes with heads). That's the representation of what he could have become under the industry and success / what he is turning in to / what people have made him out to be the rebellious one is Min Yoongi, his commoner self who's there to take the control back and kill the king and to over the throne, to force his real self to remember where he came from. he is the "reality check" to "put my feet on the ground", show that he still values his roots and his journey more on the cultural references : 4:58 /Il wol o bong do/ behind the king's chair in Joseon era has Moon on the left side, Sun on the right side, waterfalls & pine trees on both sides, mountain with 5 peaks and waves in the front. This painting is usually done when the king sits on the throne, it means prosperity of royal family under gods' protection and king's dignity MV was shot in Daejanggeum Park in Yongin, Gyeonggido the gun in Yoongi's hand is actually colt model 1860 ARMY. i don't know if it was on purpose, but hehe (p.s: ARMY is a BTS' fandom name) both characters share the same scar to signal that they are one. that's why one of them is hiding under the hat at the market place, bc he looks like the king. also in Korea a man with a scar couldn't become a king. though Yoongi said he wanted a scar bc it just looks cool 😄
The thing about the scar preventing a man from the throne is only from kdrama and not supported by historical evidence. Heirs to the throne were required to undergo combat training (archery, swordsmanship, horse-riding, etc.) and there are princes who've gone to war before ascending the throne (such as the one mentioned in the MV). Plus, the amount of assassinations wouldn't be as high if a person only needed to scar a prince to get them out from the throne. So, yeah. The scars were only for aesthetics, as Yoongi stated.
@@jonzgurl4ever I think he means he seems soft (the way he looks) but he obviously can't express it properly. Personally I agree with you, it's annoying but I don't think he said it in the sense of 'it's a girl' plus I didn't expect with his appearance to have this wild flow, even if in my opinion the two have nothing to do with it. The hip-hop mentality ...
@@imreallllyboreddd4607 there’s nothing wrong with it but most musc men make it sound like there is.like its something to be ashamed of …kinda like how he did…
Look up DKDKTV explanation of this song, covers the Korean references and stuff, is way better than you'll think. Also, while BTS songs are more "mild" with language, they can do whatever they want on their solo stuff. He's Suga/Min Yoongi from BTS, he's solo stuff is under the Agust D name
This video was Suga's idea, as every professional who respects himself was aware of every detail, meeting with the production team, he even learned the sword dance in just 2 days. To top it all, Suga is a descendant of the famous and important Min clan or better known as Yeoheung Min who belongs to the Joseon dynasty and one of the most admired Empresses of this family is Myeongseong.The Yeoheung Min were rulers in 242 senior positions within the royal court and 4 queens were also in power. Suga aka Agust D is a well known producer and songwriter in south korea, he even won a award. Suga released their second mixtape 'D-2' and his songs quickly positioned in the most important places of music charts worldwide. Suga has become the first South Korean solo artist to enter both the Billboard album and single charts at the same time, following the release of the "mixtape" "D-2" with his title track "Daechwita" Inspired by traditional Korean music used for the military march and royal parade, "Daechwita" combines the sound of traditional Korean wind and percussion instruments with the hiphop musical sub-genre "trap". Agust D 2, Suga's second mixtape has received a lot of support from fans and his music has positioned himself in the best places on the music charts, breaking several records. Suga's second solo record material, 'D-2' is in seventh place on the official album chart in the UK, the country's music list is considered one of the most important in the world. Suga has become the first South Korean soloist to have record material on the UK music chart and place his work in such an important position on the chart. Suga is one of the most influential Korean producers and musicians in the music industry. entertainment, thanks to the talent of the rapper from the company Big Hit, many artists seek to collaborate with him.
Min Yoongi !!! I'm so happy to see you check out one of our 7 kings. ARMY appreciates you sir. There is a rap line in BTS he is one of three. RM, J-Hope,Suga ( aka Agust D) all members of BTS. All amazingly talented. Thank you for checking this out. 💜
Agust D is one of the most influential rapper, singer, writer, producers in South Korea. He's the King! He's the Boss! He's got amazing control and flow. I imagine hearing this song Daechwita, in Concert, in a stadium, with 90 thousand ARMY's bobbin' our heads, yelling Daechwita! Daechwita!
I was around 34 and my daughter showed me the band who had saved her life - therefore my life has never been the same either. They saved my life, too. (I'm 38 now)
Daechwita (day-chwee-ta) was the type of music that used to be played in ancient times in Korea to let the villagers know that the Emperor/King or his army were marching through... hence "Play it Loud". Agust D (August D) is also known as Suga (Shoe-ga) from BTS. He goes by Agust D (Suga backwards + D T for Daegu Town... which is the city he's from and the name of the rap crew he was part of before BTS) when he releases his solo work, this is off of his second mix-tape, D-2. He explained this video as a battle between his former greedy/petty self (the King) and his current more humble/grateful self (the peasant). The executioner was the butcher from the opening scene in the alley. They make a pact to kill the King, which is why he cuts him loose and pulls a gun out of the box that he was supposed to put Suga's head in... Fun Fact... that antique gun is actually called "Army" which is the name of the fanbase for BTS. So basically, he uses ARMY (us) to help him overcome his old self and live in the present. Fun Fact #2... the two that start fighting in the alley are Jin and Jungkook, the oldest and youngest members of BTS. :)
i still dont understand whats the problem if a man is feminine or his music and attire is like that, it's the 21st century men can be the way they want and we have to stop judging..
I was listening to him say that as I read this, and I'm ngl it pissed me off for a second. I swear the toxic Western masculinity is absolutely brain washing them all-
In Korea there was a lot of social hierarchy from nobility to slaves. And tigers are one of the largest predator in Korea. And kings are considered sons of dragons. There's a lot of cultural and historical reference in this song. The boxes you see him holding while dancing is usually filled with a decapitated head filled with salt to preserve it, it's usually sent as a warning to heads of enemy clans or warring countries. This song is a celebration of him getting back to his roots, of him finding the need to ground himself, and fighting against the greed, and darkside of himself presented by the mad king.
Hell yess Stevie 💪💪💪 Agust D is Suga from BTS. Yess BTS the boyband... they have a rapline 3 dopest rappers ever, no cap!!!!! Thanks for this reaction bro to 💜💜💜 Also check out the other rappers off BTS RM and J-Hope 🤯🤯🤯🤯 you'll appriciate it 👍👍💯💯🔥🔥
Genuine reactions like these really make our days.. 15 seconds into the song, my man here totally forgot, stopped caring what august d looks like and was all about his rap.. More people like this please.. music has no place for hate.. we united in music!
Thank you for your reaction! BTS is the most unexpected group--their genre is BTS; songs range from neo-soul to edm, pop and more. I never listened to pop in my life the 3 rappers of the group brought me in but it didn’t take long to change my style to match theirs. They’re all really incredible humans.
Are you kidding... From the Stevie Knight reactions I've seen & I've seen a lot. He seems to have very little tolerance for the singing portion wanting to get to the rap lines.
@@lauralrobison at least its a genuine reaction unlike brisxlife, fo squad kpop, deacs, all those fake ones that pretend to like the song. Thats one reason I dont watch kpop reactions that much anymore. Even though I dont like his personailty alot, but at least he does provide criticism and is genuine about the things he likes and he does not like.
@@lauralrobison I don't want to speak for him, but if he ever reacted to the whole band I think it'd be the day that Hell froze over. It's just not Stevie. And I don't want him to. I like that he stays true to himself
𝕊𝕌𝔾𝔸 has just surpassed 1 Billion Streams on Spotify across all credits (inclusive of BTS solo songs). He is the first Korean soloist and only member of BTS to accomplish this milestone! Thank you for appreciating his passion and talent!
My older brother had the same reaction but then I showed him BTS rap line and he took back his words, I don’t think it’s necessarily bad to say as long as they’re not stubborn to change their opinion
I sometimes turn on the subtitles, no matter if it's the rap line or the whole group - but more often I like to just listen and watch. The emotions translate the song for me. But then I look up the lyrics and dive into what others think and realize I'm totally off and feel like a dumbass. So that's the biggest reason I stay off the lyrics😉
@@-Manda_SKnight_BeastMoD yeah you should definitely look into lyrics more, how can you understand fully the message they are trying to send without looking at lyrics? rm has literally said that he hopes people look up lyrics
@@kabazinga If I feel so inclined than I do. A lot of their music is soothing to me bc I DON'T know what they are saying. Just the music and how their voices flow with it. Helps me get through my anxiety attacks. My daughter and I have been listening to these fellers for years now. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, most times I foreget
OMG!! I did not see this comingggg!!! I always watch your Eminem's reactions because he is one of my favorite hip hop artists, but I happen to be a BTS fan as well!! This is awesome!!! Love your reactions!!!
This is Min Yoongi. He’s a rapper, producer, and songwriter in the group BTS. His stage name in BTS is ‘Suga’ for the first two syllables of his favorite basketball position, shooting guard. Aside from BTS he also produces mixtapes and solo work under the name Agust D, and he does some producing and songwriting for other singers (he has collaborations with Halsey, IU, RM, Suran, Lee Sora, Heike, Epik High, Max, and others). Daechwita was the single from his last mixtape, D2. A disclaimer: You seem to really like rapping and hip-hop and Yoongi does a lot of that. But with BTS and his solo work there’s a fair bit of pop mixed in so if you’re trying to keep to hip-hop I would recommend: - Shadow: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PV1gCvzpSy0.html - Agust D: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3Y_Eiyg4bfk.html - Cypher Live (with other BTS rappers): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yE-4gjtKjyY.html - Ddaeng (with other BTS rappers): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JuZwvYDQ92E.html - Just One Day (with BTS - note this is more of an R&B song with some rapping): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-29t0eRf8OPQ.html - No More Dream (with BTS): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BFqF-3qTzRg.html
Some people only judge them by their looks and their fans and dont give them a chance but they're so talented music is supposed to break barriers and thats why bts wants to do
agust d is known to be very expressive with his voice and his members of the group called him a chamelion for his ability to ride every beat. he never wanted to be a associated with kpop since his grounds are in hip-hop and hip-hop and rap were what inspired him to make music. because of that he even wanted to quit when the direction of the group that was supposed to be more focused on hip-hop started implementing pop sound. right now BTS as a group and yoongi (agust d/suga) both don't cage themselves into a specific genre or tag (they don't consider themselves kpop, they just say that they're bts and just do music in whatever genre fits to express their emotions better). though agust d is still more of a rapper now he is experimenting with vocals and tries new directions even in his solo music. just wanted to give you a little background on him in case you are interected)
YAAASSSS Stevie is onto BTS! They takin over the WORLD! Agust D is also Suga of BTS. You need react to the rap line of BTS... J-Hope and RM are fire too!! I love all their music, but you might think the entire group songs are too pop! For the rap line, react to Ddang or the cyphers, to get a feel for the whole group, Mic Drop is a great song to listen to! They are so diverse and talented - it’s unbelievable!! The singers can SANG, the rappers are SICK, and they all dance their ASSES off!! Individually they’re amazing, and as a group it’s just synergy!!! Not to mention the amazing work they do, with Army (fan base), to end discrimination and break down the barriers that separate us! Their message is all about self love and spreading positivity!! Just an amazingly talented group of good people!! 💜💜💜
you should check out more of bts or the rap line songs they got that banging beats and flows that would literally make you look at other music differently...they know how to make great music and knowing how u feel about hopsin i'm 100% sure u gonna love their stuff they both got that passion and understanding of how to make great music that dont miss! hope we will ever get hopsin song with bts rap line geez that would be insane
Wow after watching your channel for years I’m very surprised to see BTS but I’m happy (: fair warning, you are going to be getting hella views, don’t taken the fan base for granted please
@R.I.P THE GREAT DMX yeah as TeamEddings said I watched this on Patreon a while back. I can really appreciate the talent Agust D has even though I can't understand half of what he says. His flows and cadences are unreal.
Stevie Knight, I've been following you for a long time because I'm an Eminem stan. But I'm also an ARMY and it makes me so happy to see you give Agust D a chance. I fuck with it too.
AgustD (I have to listen to the song in my head to spell it correctly😂😂😂) goes so fucking hard! And I love who he arranged the James Brown sample! So creative
@@-Manda_SKnight_BeastMoD he writes all his solo and his parts in BTS songs and yes, he produced almost all solo songs, his first mixtape was fully produced by him, he also produces for other artists
Nailed the name man. Look up his first album (also called August' D) and the track Tounge Technology. If you're trying to dive deeper check out RM from BTS (August' D is also apart of them) featured with Wale once
@@kylevaughn7679 Off his first mixtape years ago, assuming RM first built his pool of connections after BTS went on reality show AHL where met Warren G and others. For a cringe inducing show, it was actually fairly useful for their careers.
BTS is amazing! The 7 members are really talented. They all have solo music. The rap line is Suga (Agust D), RM and J-Hope. They all have mixtapes. Some solo work from the rap line: *Suga (Agust D): The Last, Shadow, Agust D *RM: Do you, Joke, Change *J-Hope: Daydream, Airplane Ddaeng, UGH, and the Cyphers are amazing!!!
*Oh. My. God.* I have cracked a couple of jokes on the YT channel that I was going to request BTS &/or AgustD...I thought there would be no way in HELL you would. My mouth has been hanging open for three mins and I haven't even started the video. I take it all back. All of it. I'm sorry. I KNEW I picked the right reactor to join their Patreon!!!
@@shanamoens822 I still watch him for entertainment every once in awhile, but you're right. For me it was more about him keeping his word. Don't say you are going to open to anything and then not be. Stevie keeps it 💯
Ddaeng is another song you have to check out it Suga Rm and J-Hope and you will start to understand why they are so Sensational....and that only 3 out of the 7 that make BTS.....J-Hope even remade Chicken Noodle Soup with Becky G and he bought all rights because he wanted people to enjoy listening to it without charging them....That’s How Amazing they are and I am not even an ARMY.....just am Obsessed with these Amazing Gifted Artistes...
I felt the same way the 1st time I saw this video. I'm a fairly new BTS fan and Suga/Agust D (Yoongi) blew me away with this when I 1st heard it and I will say that this song/video has been on my RU-vid playlist since I 1st heard it. Love how hard he goes, especially when you see how he is in real life.
oh yay! This reaction is finally out! was looking through your list to look for this video after I you mentioned this in your reaction videos to BTS cypher but couldn't find it. Love your honest reaction!
I loved your reaction and I bet you would love his latest mixtape called D-2 ... that album is pure gold, lyrically and musically. And by now I'm sure someone here told you he is from the group BTS and produces and write his own music, most of BTS' and also other artists.
This is such a great reaction. I love how open-minded you were about exploring this genre. If you've enjoyed the flow and the bars I highly suggest you react to the btc cyphers pt 1,2,3 and 4 where they diss their haters. You got my word, you won't regret it.
AgustD is the solo stage name of Suga of BTS. AgustD says the things that most peeps try to keep inside their head. He is stripped, savage, and takes no prisoners. He is a wordsmith and at times his work has to be viewed twice, once for the lyrics. You will enjoy his early savage diss track AgustD by AgustD. Get up close to his " tongue technology " stay well
loved that reaction Regarding the term kpop, kpop means Korean popular music. Not more not less. Term is pretty useless. It's a huge umbrella term that spans endless genres and artists just like the term "US American popular music" includes tons from Jojo Siwa to Eminem. It's a problem that Korean rappers are labeled as kpop in the west not as hip hop as they should be.
This was so fucking satisfying to watch. I had to keep pausing to yell YES!!! because everything you were saying was exactly how I feel haha. Daechwita is still one of the best music videos and songs I've found in the past couple years. The way Agust D/Yoongi raps is so fucking unique... the flow, the expressionism, the breath and hmms, the melodic quality of his voice... no one else does it like that. He's the fucking king and he knows it.
He just become the first Korean soloist to surpass 1 billion streams on Spotify I recommend you check out this song's explanation video since there are many references that non-Korean and average ppl can't understand Also listen to "Agust D", "What do you think", "The last" by him Also BTS started from the Korean underground hiphop and were ready to form a hiphop group before they changed the whole project to go with the Kpop format.However from the beginning BTS already separated themselves from the normal Kpop system, if you're truly interested in them and continue listening to their music you will gradually notice BTS's true color
To me Suga is the best member of BTS because he goes hard. His lyrics are real and he doesn’t hold back. He came up from being poor, like no lunch money poor. There’s something really gritty about Suga that I absolutely love.
Agust D aka Suga, real name MIn Yoongi. BTS rapper, producer, songwriter and so many more titles to list down. This ain't just Kpop but damn good music. As it was said so many times, BTS is a genre itself. And individually such talented artists that broke so many barriers. If you want more, check out their mixtapes as well as the BTS albums. I suggest DDAENG, Outro: Tear, UGH.
OMG!! I saw this and was so beyond happy!!! Suga/August D is just....beyond and so talented musically and as a person a true artist and humanitarian. Wait until youndig deeper and hear the other rappers JHope and RM maybe even learn their backstory as BTS. Much respect as always!!!
I've never seen you before but I respect that you can appreciate this even though the language and culture is foreign. Some aspects of musicality, like rap skill, singing skill, or playing an instrument for example, can be universally understood even without words. I respect you for being able to see past the language and appearances and see his skill and talent.
Hype reaction! I liked your confusion at first. Agust D, SUGA, Min Yoongi - whatever he chooses to call himself is an amazing songwriter/producer/rapper. If you enjoyed this, you would enjoy any of his other works. P.S. This rabbit hole has no bottom....
Best Daechwita reaction I've seen in a long time!!! You pay attention and understand the important parts. Please do more BTS. The rappers out of that group do a lot of solo work (Agust D (aka Suga), RM, and J-hope). BTS is very prolific and are more than just a boy band, most of their songs have deep meaning. And if you react to WHO is BTS by suga & spice, or other intro to BTS, you will understand more how they relate to kpop. Their fans, "ARMY" will stick with a good reactor like you! Thanks, excellent!
The group as a whole is more pop music with all kinds of different sounds but the three rappers in the group has done mixed tapes. It is worth a listen. Have fun falling down the BTS Rabbit hole. 😀
Even as a fan (with less incline to go towards ballad-y or overly pop tunes) I will say I don't like every track. Take Dynamite or a lot of their recent Japanese releases. With a large quantity of songs there's a good amount I don't vibe with as a consequence. But what I do like, I *like*. And they haven't crashed after a good 8 years. Disease on the same album as Dynamite is way more experimental and groovy, even with the jarring amount of autotune on the 'BE' album. That's just my opinion though - they can sing and dance well onstage, I don't know why their studio stuff is so heavy with that. Plus, they appear as just decent guys and that keeps me stuck around. The group members that do the rapping (RM,SUGA,JHOPE) release their solo projects on SoundCloud for free, as have the singers with some of theirs. Sorry for the unwarranted wall of text, just nice to see someone interested on this channel.
@@GudetamaSit i agree Bighit producers go overboard with their autotune but sometimes it's used as a stylistic feature.. For example, Dynamite, Dis-ease had autotune but songs like Blue & Grey, Life Goes On didn't have cuz it didn't need tuning.. I guess it's related to genre requirements and style..
He's Agust D also known as Suga of BTS, the biggest boy group in the world right now. If you listen to their music, read their lyrics and see their performances you'll get why they're getting so many achievements. Since you like Agust D, I'll tell you the achievement he reached today: for his solo name, Suga reached 1 BILLION streams by himself even tho he's using more than 1 pseudonym I recommend BTS's Mic Drop and Agust D's: The Last or for his Suga side: Shadow. Have a nice day 💜
Hey Stevie can you do a DMX week to honor his legend. He just passed like an hour ago and he deserves to have all the respect put on his name. Rest easy king!
