(THERE IS NOTHING THEY CANNOT DO!) FIRST EVER REACTION TO "BTS" AIRPLANE PT 2 

Us South Africans claim IDOL as the African song lol because the choreography is heavily influenced by a African dance called Gwara Gwara

The song "Idol" has some african influence in the beat and the choreo

This is actually in Japanese and they also sing this song in Korean. With of course some Spanish, they also have a song with French lyrics as well. They are amazing and yes, you’re right there is nothing they can’t sing.

I am Mexican, so I can verify that this is NOT a Mariachi song hahahaha is not because is not by Mexicans, not at all; that would be dumb, but simply the music is not Mariachi music, they say “el Mariachi” in the lyrics but that’s it. The rhythm and general vibe of the song is very much Latin tho, for sure. So yes, Airplane pt. 2 is a Latin music influenced BTS track, yet another lane they had not been shy about exploring, so it counts. Btw, to tell the rappers apart it sometimes helps, if you see one of the rappers absolutely murdering the dance moves, then more than likely it is J-Hope. Of course all of the members are amazing dancers, but from the three rappers J-Hope is the one more prone to dancing and having solo dance parts, since he is the group’s Dance Leader.

yes, Korean guys singing in japanese a mariachi song Lol ! It's BTS, man ! They owned the world as a stage and deserve it !

“El Mariachi” translates to the word “musician.” It originally came from the movie “El Mariachi” which was about a guy who sang romance but nobody liked that about him-but he never cared and continued to sing romance wherever he went and whenever he sang. In Airplane Pt. 2 I think it compares that to the old days of BTS and how they continued to sing their songs wherever they went and didn’t care that people didn’t like them or their songs. In the lyrics it says “Wherever in the world, I will sing” which connects that they won’t care and don’t care about who dislikes their music. That they will continue to share their music and passion with the world.

Whenever I hear this song I just hear Jin in my head singing “el maria-JIN el maria-JIN” 😆

Toney, I keep recommending you. ARMY is tired of people reacting to BTS without even liking them because it brings many people. Your honesty is fresh, because oc you know how to make your thing but you also pay attention to lyrics, enjoy the music and respect them. The fact that you didn't stop reacting to hip-hop, new artists and the things you love is a great sign too. Thank you!

The african inspired song is actually "idol" lmao😂it's our anthem here in South Africa🇿🇦💜

Actually, this is a Korean group, Singing in Japanese, To a Latin beat in Moroccan setting

Jhope sang the original Airplane on his mixed tape Hope World. The group liked it so much they took a part from the original and made Airplane pt 2.

NOW you see why we fussed at you on day1 when you called them just a boy band lmfao!!!! Welcome down the rabbit hole baby ARMY 💜💜💜 borahae

Well.. Idol has some african influences, the beat for example..😆 They can do it all 💜

Hahaha today they sung in Spanish....BTS is like Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory, a lifetime of supply of sweet music and a whole lot of entertainment and excitement

I can never not hear El mariajin anymore 💜😂😂😂😂😂 PS. Dont try to remember them by their hair or fashion styles because they switch it up very often, just have to try remember their faces...it will come in time

African inspired moves and style are in Idol!

The funnest thing about watching people become ARMY (and, by no coincidence, the thing that separates new ARMYs from the guys just reacting to BTS for the clicks) is seeing fine folks like yourself listen to a new song or watch a new video and slowly (or not so slowly) be overtaken by delight :D I think that's the real BTS experience, tbh. Anyways, great time seeing you have fun with this one, and stay safe and healthy!

I love this song so much! It was one of the first BTS songs that really made me fall for them! I love your reaction & break down too! A++! ... Fun fact this version of the song is actually being sung in Japanese not Korean (there is a Korean version but that doesn’t have a MV) ... And the whole song is based of J Hope’s solo track Airplane. His boss heard it and was like “this is so good it should be a BTS song!” So they made Airplane pt 2 & J Hope’s rap verse in the song is taken from his original solo song

This is why BTS are their own genre.

Tony's smile is so full of joy when he's vibing haha I bloody love how genuine his reactions are

Pick a genre and they have a song. Even country music if you count RM’s collab with Lil Nas X on “Seoul Town Road”.

anybody else think of “i’M So AfRaiD” when he said opera lmao

"you know when people say stay in your lane,they in all lanes" LMAO YES BTS IS THE GENRE

Bts Perfect Dance Perfect Vocal Perfect Everything

No Russian, but RM and Jimin rapped in Spanish at their concert. Chicken Noodle soup the J Hope and Becky G version. Also, I believe this version of Airplane is in Japanese. They can sing and rap in Korean, English, Japanese, and Spanish. This is definitely one of my favorites of theirs.

Dimple/Pied piper live performance is literally iconic

You should check out their first ever song/mv No More Dream. You’ll see how much they’ve evolved and how much they’ve diversified musically since then! 💜💜💜💜 Thanks for the awesome breakdowns fam!

Toney 😂😂😂 You kill me with your reactions. I love how you’re blown away every time just like we are. This is part 2 as the first Airplane is a solo song from Jhope (the one dancing on the bar) off his mixtape Hope World. Fun fact: jhope’s verse in this song is the exact same lyrics from one of his verses from Airplane but completely rearranged composition wise. Airplane is a lot slower and totally different feel so the skill to rearrange how he sings the lyrics to fit this song’s style is SO cool to me.

I literally screamed laughed when you said “a mariachi song now..where’s the Russian song…the African song…” OMG. I’m still laughing. Had to tell u man. 😭🤣🤣

I love Airplane 2,and Hobi dancing on the bar is always such a joy to watch.

V is the member walking up to the bar at the beginning of the MV, he frequently wears glasses with the fancy eyeglass chain (literal Gucci Model). He's a baritone and has the deepest voice of all the members. He can ALSO sing in 3 octaves and it's mind blowing 🤯(PLEASE watch Stigma live. It's so bluesy and deep, and Taehyung's voice is absolutely inhuman.)If like R&B this is for you sir. Jungkook is the one who V walks up to, who is already sitting at the bar. He is the most stable vocalist and is frequently in the center of the choreography.(ALSO, have you not watched Euphoria live yet!?! Omg.) He's ALSO the one drinking milk at the beginning of Dynamite, has the AMAZING solo with the killer high note in ON Kinetic Manifesto, and the member with long purple hair in Butter. You already know Jimin, RM, and Suga. J-Hope is the one with the sing songy rap who dances on top of the bar. He's also the king of chereography. Many people also don't realize he sings many backing vocals for the group. He's so flexible with his body AND skillset. He's also always upbeat and quick to laugh. One of his nicknames is Sunshine. Jin is the vocalist (with the light blonde hair) who was lighting the match and singing the high pitched "and STIIILLLL" part you enjoyed with RM. (WATCH EPIPHANY LIVE!! That song made me think twice and take the gun out of my mouth. It's literally saved my life. I'm so grateful for the hope they've given me for the future. Or at least shining their light on my path so I could find my own way.) I hope this helps a little! I hope you're having an amazing day! Borahae💜

You will get who’s who. It took me a bit in the beginning. I’m a 62 yr old new Army from the beginning of COVID and I’m discovering new/old shit all the time. Thanks for posting this I hadn’t heard/seen this. My mom sang opera , had perfect pitch and loved David Bowie so I get eclectic taste.

I've never questioned the purpose of the rain, but I think it does have meaning. If you see Jin's face when it starts raining and then see them continue to sing and dance to, I think it's a very subtle way of saying that it doesn't matter what the world throws at them, they will just keep on doing their thing. I love that the things you point out make me see things more clearly or in a new light. 😀💜

Something I love about BTS is that they show respect to other cultures in their videos and songs without trying to appropriate it. They're giving a shout out to every corner of the world and at the same time, letting us into theirs.

I love when Tony mention the “bag” in every reaction since Mic drop onward 🤣

Ohhhh I never understood the “you’re a singing star You’re a singing star But I see no star” verse even though I’ve heard this song at least 100 times. Now today I finally know

the original version of Airplane was released on J-Hope's mixtape "Hope World"! I have to recommend the three rappers' mixtapes. RM has two out, the first one is "RM" and the second one is "mono."; Suga's first one is called "AGUST D" and his second one is "D-2". Thank you for reacting to BTS!

In the Black Swan behind the scenes, when they are on the theater stage during break, V belts out opera and it is *chef's kiss*. Totally mind blowing and he was just messing around. I actually looked around myself afterwards 👀 and was like, excuse me sir, you can't just do that.

In Mexico we have a song by the singer Juan Gabriel who is famous for saying that "Mariachi" means "party day" in Otomí, a language in Mexico. I want to think that they took that reference to say that wherever they go it will be a party, but speaking of mariachi this is not mariachi music but it does have a Latin vibe ^^

BTS is becoming more and more GLOBAL...Its wild!!!

I love that you notice the colors, because as you noted, they use color very purposefully. BTS does nothing by accident, at least, that's how it seems, so you always find such awesome details in all the videos. The level of detail and attention to detail is astounding, and adds so much to the experience. love your reactions, you're always wonderful to see.

They're not boy band, not K-Pop...they are BTS, the multi-facets super talented performers. 👍👍💪🔥🔥🔥

I'm a huge fan of artists bringing fusion to their fans. There's something special about bringing so many elements together (plus, they, and Big Hit, are beyond smart -- they know their fans are all over the world).😊

Last time I was this early Tony was calling BTS a boy band. Lol love you man thanks for your fun and thoughtful reactions.

I’m a simple ARMY-I see Airplane Pt. 2, I hit play, LOL. Great reaction. 🤗 I feel like the part with the rain is saying that no matter if it’s sunshine or rain, joy or pain, they’re going to keep singing, dancing, and making music. Nothing is going to stop them from doing what they were meant to do. 😄

LOL "They in ALL lanes... pulling things outta the bag in all lanes!" 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Jhope dancing on the bar, Suga with the killer rap. Eventually you'll know them just by the way they walk or turn their head.

I think the rain is to be about how nobody can rain on their parade!

Idol has African influence in it. They also just had a live show where RM and Jimin rapped in Spanish (Becky G part) in Chicken Noodle Soup. They can do everything.

The fact is, you're learning the members (one by one). We appreciate the hell out of you even taking the time to try. As for Jimin, his voice is kinda hard to miss, with his siren bell voice.

I love your channel - SUGA is a rapper (D and D-2 and Daewichta. SUGA is a composer and he had been recognized by the Korea Government for his compositions. RM is the rapper but he has become a singer and a dancer as well. JIN (in my opinion) is the most amazing! He is the oldest member. When he joined BTS as a trainee he had never danced or sung - look at him now. Jimin had professional dancing experience but hadn't sung before. J-Hope was a well known underground dancer (he had never sung or rapped before). Pretty amazing! V did not have dancing and singing experience when he became a trainee. Jungkook was only 13 when he became a trainee. I think each and every member of BTS is fanastic!

Chicken Noodle Soup! That one with JHope and then they all performed it live. Still can't stop watching them.

One thing you need to know about Airplane Pt2, is that it takes up a verse from JHope’s song (Airplane) from his solo mixtape because the boys liked it so much. JHope is the 3rd rapper, the one who dances on the bar top. He’s a great street dancer (his background). You’re right, they can do anything they set their mind to, beyond your wildest imagination! Check out their Festa stage segment for a performance of Chicken Noodle Soup.

4:40 I can't stop laughing at you throwing your headphones off, just fed up with these talented kings LMAO don't worry Toney, we all are. They've wrecked us all in the best possible way. ETA: That's Jin singing the "We still" part. He has the voice of an angel, you should check out his song Epiphany, it's beautiful!

You're the best reaction channel I've come across! Love hearing your introspections. It's obvious you're enjoying yourself because you don't hesitate to rewind and re-watch, and I think viewers pick up on that. Regarding recognizing the members - you pointed out Jimin, RM, and Suga in this vid, almost halfway there lol. Seriously, soon you'll be surprised you ever had trouble deciphering them. For recommendations, "Blood, Sweat and Tears" is a visual materpiece. Or "Daechwita" to be floored by Suga's rapping (it's under the name of his alter-ego, Agust D). Keep on doing what you're doing!!

I can't wait for him to discover Jimin and RM rapping their hearts out in Spanish (originally Becky G's verse) during the Sowoozoo 'Chicken Noodle Soup' performance!

BTS ft. Burna Boy would make me unbelievably happy 😊

Toney!!! it’s so funny watching ppl just throw their headphones down when reacting to BTS It’s the best 😂

That rain at the end is total fanservice but I have no complaints :)

About the rain that comes down... I see it as people raining on their parade, but they just ignore it and carry-on.

This is one of my favorite of your reactions of BTS’s music. I’m not sure why but I actually searched specifically for this reaction and I have seen it probably 8 times already. I think part of is how well you describe the breadth of their talents. No one else describes BTS’s work as well as you do, has even close to the level of insight you do and the knowledge base from which you react from, such as symbolism, literature, etc., and you have acknowledged thee likely use of color and I have no doubt you are are spot on. Thank you so much for shining the light into every nook and cranny of talent they bring to the table. I am not sure yet if you have gotten into how they are equally as astounding human beings it their impact on our world, use of their platform to forward connections, eradicate hate and prejudice and …

There a couple of lives of this song which are awesome, particularly MAMA 2018 performance.

Ok, starting a petition for a song with the lyric "Stay in your lane? Where's my bag, we're in every lane"

This is J Hope's dream from "Airplane" on his Hope World Mixtape, my bias wrecker Hobi dreams, came true, lol 💜

Their day 2 Muster concert last week. Watch their Chicken Noodle Soup. RM raps in Spanish. It was amazing!

That's the thing about BTS and what differentiates them from what we think of as a boy band in western culture (beyond the fact that they write and produce their own music)...there is no "star"..there are 7 stars and they are equally talented. Trust me, ARMY can tell the members apart by the smallest feature, like a pinky finger or shape of their lips. I was like you at first...I thought I would figure out who was who by the colour of their hair...which is the funniest line in K-Pop because it changes almost with each song and for each member. You will get there..thanks for reacting.

The struggle is real! It took me a while to get their names straight! Doesn’t help when their hair color and style changes all the time🤣. You’ll get there!

"I know the bag thick.. *stare*" lol

I LOVE your reactions! I would watch any kpop groups you wanted to explore 💛 your exasperation with their talent is me daily! Stay safe and thanks for joining us down the rabbit hole, ARMY loves having you here 🙏

I appreciate the water affect, I believe it symbolizes crossing oceans, or them seeing the seashores of different coastlines

Airplane ✈️ Jhope .... Airplane part 1 Toney?!!! Just do it!’ That shit is 🔥 fire!! AIRPLANE NEXT!!!!!!!!

I adore your reactions! Your energy and smile are great, and you really dig into the lyrics and almost always bring some fresh perspective for me. Thank you! Also, one of the writers for this song also worked on Camilla Cabello's Havana, bringing that Latin vibe to this song.

Actually the song "Idol" was made with African beats that they later transposed Korean instruments on top of so that it would satisfy the complainers that said that they were not wanting to be Korea. But this song was made during their World Stadium Tour and people were telling them that they were selling out going to different countries. So both of these songs were written to those who felt they were suppose to stay in their Kpop lane. They are famous and have a big fan base not only in the USA but also in Southern American countries like Mexico, Colobia, Brazil. A little help on recognizing them without looking at their hair (they change colors ALL the time) Jin is the oldest, funniest, Worldwide Handsome and he has crooked fingers (that he hates) he is the singer that sings middle tenor and naturally skinny, wears funky clothes. Suga second oldest, the straight face of the group if he does smile it is a very toothy grin so much that you can see his gums he is also almost as short as Jimin he is second rapper next to RM. RM the leader usually wearing a different color that the rest of the group to tell him apart, and also the largest of the group (not that any are large), he Jin and V are practically the same height but RM looks taller, bigger, RM speaks English fluently and free style dances with gusto if not talent (shhh) . J-Hope is the Dance Leader and he dances hip hop/b boy, because of that he is super skinny and he is the third rapper but he has the most rythemic style to his rap (I think because of his dance). Jimin is your guy you know him he is the contemporary dancer and sings the highest notes. V he sings the lowest parts he is also known for his CGI looks (looks like someone drew him) he also wears clothes that are bigger than he is because of a skin condition. JK is the baby (not so baby) he is the only one with visible tattoes and an eyebrow piercing but for older videos look for the youngest in the group and he is also the lead singer and dancer so he is usually the one that is in the middle during the chourus, JK can sing, rap, dance so beautifully.

Love your reactions to the boys and how open minded you’ve been from the very beginning. You should check out “Who is BTS: the 7 members of Bangtan”, you’ll really get to see how far they’ve come and learn more about each member individually!

What you said about how people note your gift of seeing even he smallest detail and explaining the meaning snd it’s spot on but not at all what we thought, if we thought of it at all is exactly what I really dig about you as well as your expressions and sense of humor.

Their song "IDOL" is heavily influenced by african music and korean traditional instruments....they even used gwara gwara in their choreo ....they also have a version where the Queen NICKI MINAJ is featuring🔥🔥🔥

Your reaction at 4:40 has me donneee. You literally threw hands..... Now you Army.... When you throw hands like that, you emotionally invested in being OT7 wrecked by BTS 😂😂😂😅😅😅😩😩😩😩

Airplane pt 2 has a Latin pop rhythm, but it is not a mariachi song, the mariachi has specific acoustic instruments, different rhythms, etc ... When it is mentioned in the chorus, in some translations I've seen it says something like "... and at any party we go to, the mariachi accompanies us" using it as a reference to Mexican fans instead of the genere of the song, I suppose. And yes, that have a little bit of everything in the bag 😂😂

It's not a mariachi song but definitely Latin Pop! I read somewhere that "El Mariachi" was a reference to a movie about a musician that gets chased around (by a drug cartel because he gets mistaken for a hitman but that's beside the point haha). I don't know if this was ever confirmed but I think it fits really well. Plus most of the movie takes place at a Mexican bar, much like the music video! Us Mexicans for sure claim this song!!

I love how they linked in J-Hope’s verse from part 1. So cool.

I love hownyou are enjoying BTS 💜💜💜

If you want BTS to blow your mind again, watch the recent SOWOOZOO concert performance where they actually sing in Spanish for Chicken Noodle Soup. BTW, do you know that song from back in the day ?????😆💜💜💜

You got it right with Jimin, RM and Suga :) once again, great reaction! Until the next one Wolf leader! haha

Toney finna be the 8th BTS member with em dance moves lol

Also El Mariachi is a kick ass cult film from the early 90's about a traveling singer who has to gun fight himself to safety against a bunch of hitmen. Infer what you will. 😘💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Keep doing what you’re doing…..you’re the best reactor in my opinion. You notice so much, are genuinely interested and you’re funny without trying too hard.

IDOL actually has African influence :) African dance: Gwara Gwara African beat: Gqom African suits: Ankara style print 😊

I enjoy your reaction👏 😍. And yes, l know / watched all your evolution of BTS 😅. Big hug from Spain🇪🇸😊

Yay 2 videos in one day!!!! React to Idol next! It has African beats and choreo

Love your personality and BTS reactions. I still crack up when I think about you swinging your head around to see if Armies about to bust through the door. Lol.

One way to figure out J Hope - if someone is rapping AND dancing, it’s probably him 🤣

Lmaaaoo I think every army has that same reaction at one point, like shiiiiiiet, BTS really got everything in the bag

- IDOL song has African influence - This is a Japanese song sang by Koreans - This is Airplane Pt 2, a spin off of Airplane Pt 1 from JHope’s mixtape Hope World

He right though 🤣 that sudden rain bit did EXACTLY what it was designed to do. If you didn't feel something seeing that.. (ok, Ace ppl, you are exempt. Do you). Rest of you, if you know ... you know .. Hobi especially.... 😫

Hi Toney, BTS never cease to amaze us. From 2013 to the Present to the Future, they actually "Earned" the Title "Biggest Boy Band in the World!" PURE FACTS!

So fun to watch! You catch on so quick! You are correct that was Suga lol

I love this song! When I first got into BTS I saw clips of this performance, but I misheard the lyrics and thought they were singing "my reaction" instead of "el mariachi." Don't ask me how lol! Please react to DNA and Idol. Thank you for the great reactions!

Lol, I love that you mentioned opera. Tae like opera and there are several videos of him singing opera or operatic style.

They are coming! Zimbabwe, I love it!😁

J Hope was up on the bar rapping about being in the clouds, Suga was in the hallway dancing with Jimin. You got him right! You're doing great! Love your reaction videos, they're so sincere and unlike others who use them for views.
