Back then RM got comments from underground artists that he's not a rapper and he can't keep the flow. Dude basically made a song "Joke" to make fun of his haters, proving he can rap to any flow (the rap's speed gets faster as song progresses). And there is a line that basically sums the whole song up: "this is a meaningless wordplay". RM basically just made a song in a style that many rappers at the time made songs - without any deep meaning. So he's in a way proving - no matter what lyrics I write, I'm still better than y'all haters. Lastly the "HIT ME" is him challenging his haters (esp those in the industry mocking him) to respond to him in rap. And NO ONE EVER RESPONDED.
Namjoon does ask a lot of questions and still carries on in mono but when Indigo comes then he somewhat finds himself and his purpose that he has been searching for
RM has 148 IQ that man is a genius, lyrics are flowing music is vibring and resonate in his blood and that makes great masterpiece. Love your reactions
Literally my favorite reactor literally so glad you found bts and I found you just wanted to say that rm is so amazing love his way with his lyrics he’s so poetic you will have to do some research when it comes to his lyrics to get the full grasp of what he’s saying and feeling but truly hope you enjoy loved your jimin and JHOPE reaction as well 💗💗
joon has implied he isn’t as proud of this mixtape but i think he should be. this was his feelings and work from over 10 years ago. his style has changed a lot but i think this is a great reminder of his beginnings and the fire that fueled him then :’)
namjoon’s duality is INSANE. the lyrics that he writes for army and bts are so gentle and sweet but when it comes to anyone against them, he doesnt show any mercy 😭😭
I'm so happy you go in chronological order because RM is literally a poet telling us his story in the most beautiful way. Once you get to know BTS history a little better and put the music in the context of what they went through it will be mindblowing, heartbreaking, and hopeful. I mean, every time i go back to older content the whole story gets more solid shape and I love each of BTS members more for sticking with music, sticking with BTS and sticking with ARMY because they created something precious and beautiful through the years, even though it was not easy.
This was the very first time that anyone in bts tried a solo project at all. Back in 2015, when their future was still so so so uncertain and all the members seemed to be struggling with a lot of personal shit....RM did something mad brave, and I adore this mixtape, it was a great project
I dislike how some ppl are trying to cast RM, Rm/nAMJOONS first project, as a project to quickly move on from or as something to simply showcase his growth. TF, RM released this brilliant work WHEN HE WAS FUXING 21. RM is a fuxing masterpiece, and then take into account that this was his frist project and it was this good? No wonder he is the brain and core of the BTS legacy
The main purpose of Bang PD (creator of BTS) was always to debut RM, either solo or with a group, as he saw enormous potential in him. And this is just his first mixtape years ago, today he has changed, grown even more as a person and as an artist, has improved as a composer, writer and producer.
Namjoon is actually a POET. I think that's why most of the time I relate to his lyrics the most. He's so smart and in touch with his feelings. Expresses things in a way most artist don't.
RM has alot of questions -- that hits the nail on the head. he's very introspective and hungers for answers, hungers to understand life. in that way i relate to him so much, literally went thru periods of torment trying to figure out the purpose of life, and what i should do next, to the point of paralysis (that's an unhealthy way) but i feel namjoon so much.
When i see you using the doolset translations i cheer! With joon’s lyricism doolset’s page just look green cause there’s an explanation for every line 😆 Also nice butterfly necklace
