I think it’s quite incredible to realize that this album was released exactly 10 years ago and it’s still banging! Their music is timeless and even though they have a lot of genres and everyone have their own preferences, we can say objectively that they have no skips.
I'm crying...these boys had 5 dollars and a big ass dream(and lots and lots of potential) and they never looked back and look how far they've come...now everything they said makes so much more sense but at that time it sounded insane to even themselves
@@taes actually it was 4 dollars! haha. "sa" in 4 whereas "sam" is 3 in korean! (we're referring to the "sa dollar" joke the tannies always use right?)
Couple of things The fact that they are so relatable so real is largely thanks to pd bang believing that relevance was needed and only possible if he let the boys write about their lives not force feed canned manufactured to be “popular” beats and lyrics like other K-pop companies And secondly Why no MV for bulletproof pt 2 You made me sadmad 💜
@@tribeloui2023 along with the MV, i hope u watch their FIRST debut stage performance (it was at a show called Melon showcase) before any other stage performances! it’ll be so magical to see the first time they perform live to an audience!! They performed We are Bulletproof Pt2 and No More Dream. Ask Ryker to point u to a video of that with subtitles bcos they also made speeches introducing themselves for the 1st time!😍🤩
@@tribeloui2023 ah cool np! yes watch their debut show case and live performances - maybe even their 2019-2020 versions too! and sooo much behind content! Let's start Bangtan bombs pleeeassseee!!!!
just a warning for your sanity: each album is better than the last. I'm not joking. they get BETTER with each album. That is if you enjoy all types of music, which it seems you do. you nice, keep going
right! even if someone enjoys their early music the most, it's undeniable that the quality, the production, the vocals, everything just kept getting better
the transition from your intro “so if you’re watching this-“ to “we’re now going to progress to some steps” gave me goosebumps lmao, so glad you finally made it to their albums!
Tribe Assemble its ot7 time!! This whole journey has been so amazing up to this point and I know it’s only going to keep getting better and better !! 💜
34:13 RM has one of the best speaking voices in the world. I could listen to it for hours. It's so textured and warm and emotive. And his words, his mind is just beautiful.
Tribe Loui crumbling to the floor for the first interlude of the first album is on brand and something i didn’t know I needed! I’m so happy we are finally here and I can imagine your excitement at starting this OT7 journey!
3:50 I LOVE how Seokjin used a very rough side of his voice when singing WABPt2!! Hahaha! the rebel fierce image they had when they debuted! It's not often to hear that side of seokjin's voice! 🤩🤩
Everytime “we’re now gonna progress to some steps which are a bit more difficult” and the “Bighit exclusive” come on, i get goosebumps. transported back to when i first listened to their debut!!!
Each album is their story, their feelings and what they were going through at that time, everything they have conveyed to us through these albums. Get ready for an emotional ride.
Oh my god this is the best reaction so far, I spit my coffee for real when I saw your reaction to Jimin's abs. Your reaction to this album is everything, knowing you've essentially fallen in love with them individually, I knew that when the OT7 reactions finally came you still weren't ready. BTS individually are amazing, but together? Bulletproof!
The quality was there since day one, bts is one of the best desicions in my life, I SWEAR IF I HAD HEARD THIS ALBUM WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL, MY LYFE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO DIFFERENT. IT WAS SO HARD AND THIS YOUNG BOYS HAD SO MUCH TO SAY. THIS IS WHY I LOVE THEM, BC THEIR MUSIC MATTER AND HELPS U, MY BELOVED TANNIES😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜Happy 10th anniversary, so happy to be part of the tribe members too. This journey has been nothing but enjoyment, fun and respect
Your hype was so relatable! It's literally so wild to me that there are these seven people who are FANTASTIC solo artists who could take over the world individually but somehow they all got together and now we get albums with ALL OF THEM ON EVERY SINGLE TRACK!!! I'm living in the right century. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it! Bangtan has been slaying the sound, performance, and message since the very beginning. 💜
The excitement is so real!!! Production goes wilddddddd. BTS was the first time I ever checked out full albums and I love the structures of intros/outros/skits/interludes. Like it has always been about them and the music, always. They were such fun and funny kids from the beginning to the now, it has just been them. Yes they have a certain style in this era that seems over the top a bit but we have to remember the time and competition and need to stand out. But the hilariousness of their personalities has been there from jump. They made sure to make music with a message, they wanted their voices to be heard. Idol industry was the best chance for them to reach a lot more people and I respect them for all the choices they made. But they also just made music for their age, good songs that always feel nostalgic to me for some reason. Listen, the desert and ocean references .... will forever be as important as the colour purple in Bangtan World and when you get it you just get. They had so much wisdom even back then to question the world around them and to write about it so eloquently and poetically. They knew how to relay the message too, soft/sweet if needed and angry as all hell if thats what it called for, they were VERSATILE (why am I screaming at my labtop). I cant thank their company/label enough for allowing them to write about these topics no matter how unconventional they were, they took such a big risk approaching it this way with the amount of money invested and not knowing how it will come back to them in the future. I will forever love Bangtan's story because its real and its still going. Thank you for this. I love that you started this during FESTA and on the anniversary. Its so much fun.
I had the biggest smile plastered on my face the entire video. Thank you for all the hard work you put in and your authenticity-you are the REALEST. Your excitement is contagious, and I’m getting so much joy just from your enjoyment alone. I thought I couldn’t love these guys anymore than I already do but watching you go down this rabbit hole is making me fall in love with BTS all over again. I feel so lucky to reexperience the excitement of discovering them for the first time and it’s all thanks to you. Soooo so hype to follow your journey! BORAHAE 💜💜💜
We are finally here!! 🎉 this album is so short but SO GOOD! They were so different from what I knew about korean bg and I was so surprised by their concepts, lyrics, sound and TALENT! So glad you are now able to enjoy this too 🥰 I'm happy too that you are gonna watch live performances, and dont forget we are bulletproof pt.2 MV!! Is fiiire!
They were way beyond their time, like you said, their material, level of skill at their age, their approach towards some of the topics they talk about. This then translates to their music and how it seems to transcend beyond time - it's timeless. Their stuff are unskippable. Anyways, happy you're finally here!! Gonna keep staying for more ^^ Edit: additionally, please take rest when you need to okay! stay hydrated, stay safe ~
OMG IT'S HAPPENING EVERYBODY CALM DOWN IT'S HAPPENING 😭 But I can't,I am so excited and happy right now,good luck Tribe Loui for this rollercoaster ride, you'll love it,promise 💜💜
Their style has changed a lot over the years but the impressive thing is they absolutely excelled at every single genre they ever tried. Theres a reason theyre still going strong at 10+ years when the average "lifespan" of kpop groups is 7-8 years
It's so funny to see you recognise their look and voice immediately. That's not a common reaction upon watching and hearing it for the first time🤣🤣🤣🤣This way you really catch all the detail they are doing and that's just so great!!!! You are one of the best reactor😆😆
It means a lot to us, that even after ten years people are going back in time to get to know them from the BEGINNING like, the roots. I'm so glad. I think you're gonna just fall in love with them even more from now on. Love you and take care💜
The reason maths is still important in school is because it teaches people a certain way of thinking, a more numeric / analytical type that we do use in real life. Especially since it's a part of chemistry and physics. Most of us obviously don't use the exact maths we were taught in school but literally everything we use has some pretty high level of maths included in it - this screen you're looking at would not exist without maths and so would millions upon millions of other things. People don't realise the benefits schools and the knowledge you are exposed to has on yourself and communities. BUT is there room for improvement? HELL YES.
7:43 Jimin started out with street dance, hip hop, popping winning competitions etc dancing those styles, he continued dancing that too outside of school years later when he started dancing contemporary dance + in school while majoring in contemporary dance he also learnt lots of other forms of dance. Jimin is an extremely well rounded dancer but lots of new army who came in the last 4 years don't really seem to know that and only mention his contemporary dance as if it's his one dance style. I think they are confused because that is one thing Jimin been very much alone with as an idol and in Bangtan, the only one who does contemporary. + he has his many years of multiple forms of martial arts and does flips and tricks easily.
OT7! This was worth the wait - your reactions were priceless, and I'm eager to hear your thoughts tomorrow. The albums just keep getting better because their music grows with them. They are incapable of writing bad songs--even if you don't like them all (which is natural - we all have different tastes), they're still objectively great songs, and I can't say that about too many artists. ARMYs buy albums on faith - pre-ordered, no tracklist needed. We don't know what we're going to get, but we know it'll be something we haven't heard before, and it will be music of the highest quality. Looking forward to your future reviews! 💜💜💜
The way BTS literally came out the womb swinging is so crazy to me😂 They were serious and had something to say, and they were going hard against the grain by saying it. To come from such a small company and not even knowing if they would actually be able to debut as a group, the amount of manifestation and foreshadowing they were able to put into their early music about taking over the music industry blows my entire mind to this day. There’s no way anyone could’ve known what they would become. BTS’s whole discography, their existence and road to success really feels written in the stars. It’s going to be so cool seeing you go through all of this and react to these while already knowing so much about them individually!! Thank you for giving me an excuse to reminisce and remember how cool they’ve been from the jump.
11:41 "Yo, my neck could make money!" one of the best misheard lyrics I've seen. It's up there with Jimin's "b*ch you gonna die!" in 'Fire' ^^, I just can't help but singing it when I listen to them.
Tribe listen... My 1 year Army-versery is today (the 14th) and so not only am I blessed with Festa but you and your FIVE VIDEOS TOO!!??! Crazy. Anyway, I just wanna say thank you for making these videos so special and taking so much time to really give these guys the careful consideration they deserve. I hope you have a great day and please promise me to take a few days off at least to chill and relax after all this content you've made the last few days! I cannot put into words how excited I was to watch you hear and see these songs!
@@haesoognzg I actually only heard of that like 2 days after becoming a fan and you know all the fake news saying they were breaking up I was like, "Great! I finally find my favorite band and they break up after 2 days of finding them!!" But obviously, after I looked into it more I realized the media just wanted clickbait and I became a little salty lol
@@jesskb it was fine! i binge watched most of their songs in like a week and was knee-deep in ITS by the time i heard of it so i was like "huh?!" but i soon realized it was less drastic than the media was portraying it as and that is how i learned to trust the boys over the media faster than any army ever.
waiiittt it'll be cute if you react to live performances but also interviews from that time, i think their debut interviews are very important cause they introduce what the group is all about
It really is crazy how Bangtan came out the gate with immediate FIRE and just dropped it on the world like, "Here you go. You're welcome." But they legit worked their asses off to debut, and you can tell how much it meant (and still means) to them. I'm a fairly new BTS fan myself, I just discovered them about seven months ago, but it now feels like they've always been a part of my life. I'm really enjoying your unique and authentic enjoyment as you navigate your BTS journey. Thank you for all the amazing content!
Tribe Loui, I just wanted to say thank you very much, I enjoy your content a lot. You are a source of fun, joy and realness, and I’m excited about your journey with BTS. Keep being such an awesome and cool person. Have a great week!💜
I agree with you, the fact that they had decided to write stuff that matters right off the bat and make it sound so good already. It says a lot about the potential they had collectively and I'm so glad they found Bang PD-nim and so glad he realized that letting them basically speak heir truth was the only way. I'm so glad for that. It's really quite adorable to see you go through this cause it reminds me of my own initial reactions. It blew you away same way it blew me away. And I know the boys are having a hard time watching their 2013 selves now but man the music is G O O D and the lyrics are fresh still. Anyway. I'll be following your journey. Have a good day Loui!!
Im very curious, i know i listened i think to 95% of BTS songs, but i do want to heart part 1 I do know that the next bulletproof song was the one eternal
@@AiBkomachi they have performed we are bulletproof part 1 several times at their 2015 concerts.. You should check it out. The original was rapmon and 2 of his trainees from their original rap crew. Later they changed it to include all of the bangtan members.
I'm so elated at the way you're so so endeared by and invested in the debut album - knowing all you know about each individual Tannie now! Also, I truly appreciate how you're able to distinguish between an initial impression and an in-depth review of their whole album and lyrics. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Happiest first FESTA, Jonathan! 💜🎉 #APOBANGPO10
26:14 - 도깨비 (Dokkaebi - “dough-kay-bee”) is usually translated into English as “goblin” but they’re more like nature spirits who are tricksters. The myths describe them having several forms, so there’s an implication that they’re shapeshifters, and they can either prank you or help you out. They also have magical items (like their invisibility hat). They’re supposed to be quite powerful, too. There’s a good k-drama called Goblin/도깨비 as well!
I love that you don't just immediately label an album and then move on to the next!! From their very first album BTS give you something substantial to think about, to the point that I still find myself realizing new things even though I've heard the songs hundreds of times at this point. And they just get more intricate as they go lol! Welcome to OT7, I'm so excited to follow along on your journey with you. 💜
The BTS story is the real David & Goliath story in the Korean Music Industry. It is an underdog story that is not uncommon for small labels outside the big 3 in SK's massive Kpop Industry. However, Bangtan Sonyeondan is the only group that succeeded beyond any one's expectations even those of BTS themselves. The magic lies in how these 7 scrappy and fierce young men who 10 years ago most of them were still in their teens defied the odds, believed in themselves, trusted their mentor & boss Bang PD, shook off all the arrows pointed their way, weathered every mistreatment, every calculated sabotage by the powerful music companies that monopolized Kpop, how they rose above all the negative publicity from a controlled media and withstood a collective targeted multiple social media attack by other fandoms. Truly disheartening. Yet these 7 kids circumvented that prejudiced judgmental kpop system and broke that proverbial glass ceiling over and over again thru sheer grit, discipline and an indefatigable work ethic. BTS created and developed their own strategy to reach their fans because they were shunned by established TV variety shows. So they started personal blogs, Vlives, their own variety show Run BTS and other media content. They realized early on how Army was also affected by their hardships and vowed that they would always do their best and work extremely hard so that their fans would not be embarassed to be called BTS A.R.M.Y They saw Army as their true friends who like them experienced all the horrible stuff that they experienced. They recognized that Army protected them and when Army grew in numbers globally, they saw Army's massive power and reach. To this day, BTS still asks "Why them?" They know that there are other kpop groups who are hardworking and talented too. What is it that gained them such a loyal following of people from toddlers to the elderly from nearly every country on this planet? That is the true magic of these courageous, intelligent, extremely talented, honest and humble young men. Those big 3 companies have tried to replicate it. They will never succeed because there is no formula. There will only be one Bangtan Sonyeondan. Let the other kpop groups make their own unique path to success. Only then will they be able to see if they have what it takes to write their own history.
Look where doing the work and not look back can get you??? To every ARMY and Tribe Loui dreaming just do the work ( its going to be hard for darkness exist every where but don't give up) .....to ever 3 dollar and a dream like Bangtan lots not only listen but lets put in the work to accomplish our dreams and you can have no dream, one dream or several dreams just let actively work on our dreams....and just DREAM.
It's so crazy how your discovery of BTS and your journey has lead you perfectly up to their 10 year anniversary. In real time you got to see Jin's goodbye song, Hobi's collab with J. Cole, Jimin's album release, Suga's album release, and now at the 10 year anniversary, their debut album. The journey has literally only JUST begun with 'BTS' music lol Let's Goo!!!!!
Yess! Considering it was their first ever album, it really is so good! They’ve always been talking about real things, from the very beginning. “On the starting line” is so underrated, I only found out about its existence a few months ago… it made me think of namjoon’s letter he wrote us for the 10th anniversary where he talked about how different he is now compared to the beginning, but that the worries of his 17 year old self and his 20 year old self are still valid. I love his introspection and the eloquence with which he shares it with us. Also…… did you notice j-hope’s outro ego started with intro: 2 cool 4 skool?? They LOVE callbacks to earlier lyrics/beats/metaphors in their music, it’s gonna be so fun for you to go in chronological order and catch all the easter eggs and self-references coming up!
the thing about Bangtan is that their love for their music and their craft just overflows. they don’t put out things without their heart and soul to it which only shows how you can go back to their debut and pre debut music in 2023 and it’ll still be a banger. I’m so happy for your journey, tribe loui. borahae 💜
You can see why they've succeeded, they've done nothing but hone their art. You can see how much they care and have wanted to make good music from the start! Loved the reaction
I really like your videos. You show a refreshing maturity for a young man and a zany quality that I find equally fun. Keep doing you, you’re fun to watch.
6:42 it's really hard to overstate how unusual BTS was in the kpop scene of back then and what a lasting effect they had on it. simply by being actual musicians actual rappers sharing their actual thoughts and calling the actual shit going on around them out. all of this was unprecedented. they turned kpop upside down and all the big kpop companies feared them for it and started first sabotaging them and when that didn't stick and only resulted in more powerful disstracks by BTS they started copying everything they do. kpop today is basically a cheap BTS copy.
Yes; you are exploring BTS from the beginning. 😭 you are one of the very few on YT I appreciate when it comes to reacting to BTS. You seem so genuine & ARMY appreciates the care and respect you give OT7. 💜
They have hidden tracks and extended versions of songs that are only available on CDs. For example, PROOF has disc 3 that is only their demos and is not available online. On BE, the track Telepathy is 1 min longer on the CD vs the AM/Spotify versions. Boy with love has heavier Halsey participation on the CD than what's on streaming platforms. Plus the CD versions sound way crisper, and the layers of music are just that right level of spicy. Not listening to the CD is missing out on another experience. They make it worth your money to buy their albums since the physical is different enough that you want to pop it in your cd player. I always extract the CD tracks and download them to my phone to listen. SEA is also a hidden track only available on their CD. There's lots of other ones, and extended versions.
The day we’ve been waiting 3 months for is finally here!!!!!!!!!! I didn’t make a loud random noise when I saw this posted…🤓 So excited for this next chapter in the journey! You da best! Seriously…truly. Thank you for making me smile on the daily.
Es gratificante ver a alguien disfrutar tanto de nuestros amados BANGTAN. Te agradezco la honesta reacción y tu alegría. Feliz Festa 2023 para ti también. 💜💜💜 PD. A alguien más le pasa que escucha la canción y mentalmente ve la coreografía? ✌💜✌💜✌ Gracias, gracias.
IT'S FINALLY OT7 TIME I'M SO EXCITED 😭 I'm so looking forward to your rollercoaster ride to their journey 🤗 Ngl, we are bulletproof was the song that dragged me through this rabbit hole back in 2014 and it's still a banger even after these many years. All they had was their dream and they were so good at what they do from the start and look where they are right now, dominating the world 😭 I'm so proud of them. Happy 10 years together everyone 💜
That was like reading their personal diary. No real knowledge of what their future would bring. Only dreams and hard, hard work for the dreams of a future. It’s so moving and do vulnerable. This is why thru are so adored and cherished . What a gift. Thanks Bulletproof, 45:30
So the only hidden tracks according to my quick google are on 2 kool 4 skool (the album you just listened to) and love yourself : her. Specifically love yourself her as an amazing track called "sea" and its so fucking good I ripped a WAV quality version from the cd and put it on my phone (along with their entire discography) Other then that there is a special edition version of School love affair which has two extra tracks over the base version which I THINK isn't available digitally (could be wrong). And finally their anthology album proof is 3 discs and I believe almost the entire 3rd disc isn't on spotify (except for the song For Youth). Reason being is the 3rd disc with the exception of the one song are all "demo" versions of earlier releases so it's almost like a bonus content cd for those truly interested in the DNA of some awesome tracks
They click clicked bang banged their way into so many hearts ... its so heartwarming to see so many new people getting into BTS and enjoying their music!! I hope you have a lot of fun diving into their albums!!
I love No More Dream. Bangtan really trying to 'wake' their peers up by asking them 'what really is your dream? u want big house, big cars but u don't have any big dreams?'. it's a huge invitation for self-reflection and introspection. youth are just being told they need to study from morning till night but they don't know what they are studying for. are they working towards a goal they really want? have they figured out what they want their life to be? Bangtan is also criticising adults in society for raising up the youth this way, in a system where they feel a despair and fear about being able to dream / chase their own path and passion
in many ways i wish i heard this message when i was a teen. it wasn't to the extent to most korean kids then but i was never sure what my efforts were for -- i just knew i needed to do well at school and i believed the lie that if i did ok at school, my life would be set. i honestly only did real self-reflection much later in life... well into my adulthood.
Suga's first words (I wanna big house, big cars and big rings) have been used in other songs and each one has a different meaning, it's quite a journey. Also at the beginning of the No More Dream MV, the song that is heard when each of the boys is introduced is We are bulletproof Pt 1 (the album only has part 2) and if I'm not mistaken they did it when they were still trainees and it's not included in any album
ohhh at last we're here, I am so glad to be here with you and it is quite monumental that you released your OT7 reaction on the day they debuted. Very ingenious indeed, I guess RM has influenced you a lot when it comes to creating good content/s. Anyway, I am just too happy that we are here and no more limiting ourselves to spoiling any OT7 songs or performances. You will def. love this journey as we did...borahae~
I loved that you are starting off with their beginning discography - there is something about their early work that is very comforting and relatable. I think you hit it on the nail with them being genuine. Thank you!
People don't actually believe me when I say there are no bad BTS songs. People have their favourites or their favourite eras but there is nothing that is bad. It is actually amazing and kudos to them and their in-house team. 💜
It was a joy to watch your joy. You made it! Happy debut day!! I look forward to you checking out the live performances and for your review once you've had time to listen to the album again. :)
you’re gonna find that as you go through bts’ discography, despite their sound evolving, certain motifs are consistent and are present even in their most recent music. for example, the ocean and desert is referenced manyyy times. it’s really cool
Bangtan really debuted strong and ready to change the world with their messages and music. They have an strong artistic identity since the beginning and you can tell they were different from the rest. The fact these songs still slaps it says a lot! BTS really has an everlasting discography and full of bangers. 🛐🔥
I'm so happy we're finally on ot7! 😭 I never got to geek over these albums with anyone in my life, so I feel like I'm vicariously doing it through you 🤣
Love how BTS' very first album blew you away! Remember Namjoon and Yoongi were working on this album for 3 years since 2010. There is a documentary where the rest of the team are so worried about Namjoon and Yoongi because they get home at dawn after working whole nights ie writing, composing songs etc. Sleep for a bit and then get ready for classes as trainees. The grind pre-debut was already tough and got even tougher once BTS had their debut. I think Hobi even said that he wishes he could help them and lift the burden but he was still learning how to rap. Same with the other members - they were still learning. It probably weighed a lot on Jin especially; that's why in their early years, Jin was quiet. BTS started as a hiphop group. Appreciate your unique journey, intelligent reflections, hilarious commentary and how much you are enjoying BTS discography, Run BTS episodes and other video clips like Bangtan bombs, interviews, Suchwita episodes, sketches, behind the scenes or the making of music videos, mini concert clips etc Keep up the great work! Thank you!
its so unique how you choose to listen to their solo and latest pieces first. because i've listen to them chronically since 2015, i can see their progression and how they matured thru all those years. but watching your reaction is funny too, bc i understand how *shocked* people are when they found out bts started HARD lol. No More Dream is a STRONG debut song, like the message they deliver in that song is HEAVY for their age, yet they ATE!! and that they self-wrote too!!!! i love bts for their genius lyric and deep meanings they told me. like,,, i literally learned a lot from them, not my teachers lmao. SO, please enjoy your discovery on the group's albums. i promise it'll get better, wont dissapoint. every album they made is MASTERPIECE. musically genius, and heavy with substances. i learned you like reading their lyrics, so thank you for that. bc many reactors just simple ignore it, smh. and bc you like substance too, you DEFINITELY will love how they show progression of thinking, like how they mature, how they get perspective about life on the way they grow up. journey with bts and their music is fun :) enjoy! looking forward for your COMPLETE reactions for all albums and singles 🥰
Crazy to think how far they've come and how much they've grown........still feel like crying looking at their progress over all these years. We're so proud of them
theyre so insane for releasing these absolute BANGERS on their debut
G DRAGON KING
@@himaririku9254💀
I think it’s quite incredible to realize that this album was released exactly 10 years ago and it’s still banging! Their music is timeless and even though they have a lot of genres and everyone have their own preferences, we can say objectively that they have no skips.
About twice a year, I find myself listening to their old albums for weeks... they all are so timeless 💜
Yes true
Like i still listen to all of these 😂
doesn't matter how many times i listen to. it always sounds fresh and inspiring.
and they make us choose top 5 with their unskippable discography? 🥲
I'm crying...these boys had 5 dollars and a big ass dream(and lots and lots of potential) and they never looked back and look how far they've come...now everything they said makes so much more sense but at that time it sounded insane to even themselves
3 dollars 😂
@@taes that was my first thought 🤣
@@taes Fck this caught me off guard🤣🤣🤣
@@taes actually it was 4 dollars! haha. "sa" in 4 whereas "sam" is 3 in korean! (we're referring to the "sa dollar" joke the tannies always use right?)
@@Garnishes I was talking about the chain was 3 dollars in AHL. 😅
Couple of things
The fact that they are so relatable so real is largely thanks to pd bang believing that relevance was needed and only possible if he let the boys write about their lives not force feed canned manufactured to be “popular” beats and lyrics like other K-pop companies
And secondly
Why no MV for bulletproof pt 2
You made me sadmad
💜
I’m sorry I’m sorry it’s coming in the morning😭😭
@@tribeloui2023 along with the MV, i hope u watch their FIRST debut stage performance (it was at a show called Melon showcase) before any other stage performances! it’ll be so magical to see the first time they perform live to an audience!! They performed We are Bulletproof Pt2 and No More Dream. Ask Ryker to point u to a video of that with subtitles bcos they also made speeches introducing themselves for the 1st time!😍🤩
@@tribeloui2023 ah cool np! yes watch their debut show case and live performances - maybe even their 2019-2020 versions too! and sooo much behind content! Let's start Bangtan bombs pleeeassseee!!!!
We want you to react to everything. But, please, take your time. Rest, be healthy.
@@angelicar2901 yes plz
just a warning for your sanity: each album is better than the last. I'm not joking. they get BETTER with each album. That is if you enjoy all types of music, which it seems you do. you nice, keep going
right! even if someone enjoys their early music the most, it's undeniable that the quality, the production, the vocals, everything just kept getting better
This is so true, I love that you can hear them getting more in tune with themselves and each other as they all polish their talents
"we are now going to progress so some steps which are a bit more difficult" and they weren't joking
the transition from your intro “so if you’re watching this-“ to “we’re now going to progress to some steps” gave me goosebumps lmao, so glad you finally made it to their albums!
Same omgggg😮💨👌🏾
the transition was FIRE!
Dude same. Perfect 🤌🏽
OT7 let’s go!!!
Tribe Assemble its ot7 time!!
This whole journey has been so amazing up to this point and I know it’s only going to keep getting better and better !! 💜
34:13 RM has one of the best speaking voices in the world. I could listen to it for hours. It's so textured and warm and emotive.
And his words, his mind is just beautiful.
I agree 100%.. His voice carries such weight and substance.. And his words are so profound..
Tribe Loui crumbling to the floor for the first interlude of the first album is on brand and something i didn’t know I needed! I’m so happy we are finally here and I can imagine your excitement at starting this OT7 journey!
Why am I this excited to listen to an album I've already listened to many times 😂
I know right??😂😂 i just realize the same thing bcs of your comment😂😂😂
i actually literally listened to 2Cool4Skool again before Loui dropped this video bc i knew it was coming up!
3:50 I LOVE how Seokjin used a very rough side of his voice when singing WABPt2!! Hahaha! the rebel fierce image they had when they debuted! It's not often to hear that side of seokjin's voice! 🤩🤩
Exactly ! 😭 i love that side of him 🤧
Everytime “we’re now gonna progress to some steps which are a bit more difficult” and the “Bighit exclusive” come on, i get goosebumps. transported back to when i first listened to their debut!!!
Each album is their story, their feelings and what they were going through at that time, everything they have conveyed to us through these albums. Get ready for an emotional ride.
Oh my god this is the best reaction so far, I spit my coffee for real when I saw your reaction to Jimin's abs. Your reaction to this album is everything, knowing you've essentially fallen in love with them individually, I knew that when the OT7 reactions finally came you still weren't ready. BTS individually are amazing, but together? Bulletproof!
The quality was there since day one, bts is one of the best desicions in my life, I SWEAR IF I HAD HEARD THIS ALBUM WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL, MY LYFE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO DIFFERENT. IT WAS SO HARD AND THIS YOUNG BOYS HAD SO MUCH TO SAY. THIS IS WHY I LOVE THEM, BC THEIR MUSIC MATTER AND HELPS U, MY BELOVED TANNIES😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜Happy 10th anniversary, so happy to be part of the tribe members too. This journey has been nothing but enjoyment, fun and respect
They really did their best for the debut album. So proud of Bangtan
Your hype was so relatable! It's literally so wild to me that there are these seven people who are FANTASTIC solo artists who could take over the world individually but somehow they all got together and now we get albums with ALL OF THEM ON EVERY SINGLE TRACK!!! I'm living in the right century. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it! Bangtan has been slaying the sound, performance, and message since the very beginning. 💜
The excitement is so real!!!
Production goes wilddddddd. BTS was the first time I ever checked out full albums and I love the structures of intros/outros/skits/interludes. Like it has always been about them and the music, always.
They were such fun and funny kids from the beginning to the now, it has just been them. Yes they have a certain style in this era that seems over the top a bit but we have to remember the time and competition and need to stand out. But the hilariousness of their personalities has been there from jump.
They made sure to make music with a message, they wanted their voices to be heard. Idol industry was the best chance for them to reach a lot more people and I respect them for all the choices they made. But they also just made music for their age, good songs that always feel nostalgic to me for some reason.
Listen, the desert and ocean references .... will forever be as important as the colour purple in Bangtan World and when you get it you just get.
They had so much wisdom even back then to question the world around them and to write about it so eloquently and poetically. They knew how to relay the message too, soft/sweet if needed and angry as all hell if thats what it called for, they were VERSATILE (why am I screaming at my labtop).
I cant thank their company/label enough for allowing them to write about these topics no matter how unconventional they were, they took such a big risk approaching it this way with the amount of money invested and not knowing how it will come back to them in the future.
I will forever love Bangtan's story because its real and its still going.
Thank you for this. I love that you started this during FESTA and on the anniversary. Its so much fun.
I had the biggest smile plastered on my face the entire video. Thank you for all the hard work you put in and your authenticity-you are the REALEST. Your excitement is contagious, and I’m getting so much joy just from your enjoyment alone. I thought I couldn’t love these guys anymore than I already do but watching you go down this rabbit hole is making me fall in love with BTS all over again. I feel so lucky to reexperience the excitement of discovering them for the first time and it’s all thanks to you. Soooo so hype to follow your journey! BORAHAE 💜💜💜
No more dream as a debut will never cease to amaze me ! Iconic from day 1
We are finally here!! 🎉 this album is so short but SO GOOD! They were so different from what I knew about korean bg and I was so surprised by their concepts, lyrics, sound and TALENT! So glad you are now able to enjoy this too 🥰 I'm happy too that you are gonna watch live performances, and dont forget we are bulletproof pt.2 MV!! Is fiiire!
right?? lol
They were way beyond their time, like you said, their material, level of skill at their age, their approach towards some of the topics they talk about.
This then translates to their music and how it seems to transcend beyond time - it's timeless. Their stuff are unskippable.
Anyways, happy you're finally here!! Gonna keep staying for more ^^
Edit: additionally, please take rest when you need to okay! stay hydrated, stay safe ~
They are successful as soloists but as a group they are godly insane and untouchable 🎉😂
OMG IT'S HAPPENING EVERYBODY CALM DOWN IT'S HAPPENING 😭
But I can't,I am so excited and happy right now,good luck Tribe Loui for this rollercoaster ride, you'll love it,promise 💜💜
they really made 15 yo jk start their debut album with "name is jungkook, scale is worldwide" lmao LEGENDS
Their style has changed a lot over the years but the impressive thing is they absolutely excelled at every single genre they ever tried.
Theres a reason theyre still going strong at 10+ years when the average "lifespan" of kpop groups is 7-8 years
It's so funny to see you recognise their look and voice immediately. That's not a common reaction upon watching and hearing it for the first time🤣🤣🤣🤣This way you really catch all the detail they are doing and that's just so great!!!! You are one of the best reactor😆😆
they were called monster rookies for a reason cause why does this 10 yo album still hit
It means a lot to us, that even after ten years people are going back in time to get to know them from the BEGINNING like, the roots. I'm so glad. I think you're gonna just fall in love with them even more from now on. Love you and take care💜
congrats on making your deadline!! super excited to watch (been waiting all day 😄)
Seeing where they started out without much money or resources but with SO much talent. I’m proud!
The reason maths is still important in school is because it teaches people a certain way of thinking, a more numeric / analytical type that we do use in real life. Especially since it's a part of chemistry and physics. Most of us obviously don't use the exact maths we were taught in school but literally everything we use has some pretty high level of maths included in it - this screen you're looking at would not exist without maths and so would millions upon millions of other things.
People don't realise the benefits schools and the knowledge you are exposed to has on yourself and communities. BUT is there room for improvement? HELL YES.
7:43 Jimin started out with street dance, hip hop, popping winning competitions etc dancing those styles, he continued dancing that too outside of school years later when he started dancing contemporary dance + in school while majoring in contemporary dance he also learnt lots of other forms of dance.
Jimin is an extremely well rounded dancer but lots of new army who came in the last 4 years don't really seem to know that and only mention his contemporary dance as if it's his one dance style.
I think they are confused because that is one thing Jimin been very much alone with as an idol and in Bangtan, the only one who does contemporary.
+ he has his many years of multiple forms of martial arts and does flips and tricks easily.
This album is timeless for real!
GOD circle room cypher really takes me back to how refreshing bts were when they debuted. There really was no one out there in kpop like them.
OT7! This was worth the wait - your reactions were priceless, and I'm eager to hear your thoughts tomorrow. The albums just keep getting better because their music grows with them. They are incapable of writing bad songs--even if you don't like them all (which is natural - we all have different tastes), they're still objectively great songs, and I can't say that about too many artists. ARMYs buy albums on faith - pre-ordered, no tracklist needed. We don't know what we're going to get, but we know it'll be something we haven't heard before, and it will be music of the highest quality. Looking forward to your future reviews! 💜💜💜
The way BTS literally came out the womb swinging is so crazy to me😂 They were serious and had something to say, and they were going hard against the grain by saying it. To come from such a small company and not even knowing if they would actually be able to debut as a group, the amount of manifestation and foreshadowing they were able to put into their early music about taking over the music industry blows my entire mind to this day. There’s no way anyone could’ve known what they would become. BTS’s whole discography, their existence and road to success really feels written in the stars. It’s going to be so cool seeing you go through all of this and react to these while already knowing so much about them individually!! Thank you for giving me an excuse to reminisce and remember how cool they’ve been from the jump.
11:41 "Yo, my neck could make money!"
one of the best misheard lyrics I've seen. It's up there with Jimin's "b*ch you gonna die!" in 'Fire' ^^, I just can't help but singing it when I listen to them.
Tribe listen... My 1 year Army-versery is today (the 14th) and so not only am I blessed with Festa but you and your FIVE VIDEOS TOO!!??! Crazy. Anyway, I just wanna say thank you for making these videos so special and taking so much time to really give these guys the careful consideration they deserve. I hope you have a great day and please promise me to take a few days off at least to chill and relax after all this content you've made the last few days! I cannot put into words how excited I was to watch you hear and see these songs!
HAPPY 1 YEAR ARMYversary dear 🎉💜🔥
@@jesskb thank you so much!
@@haesoognzg Right???!!!! I wonder what they must have gone through at that time 🥹
@@haesoognzg I actually only heard of that like 2 days after becoming a fan and you know all the fake news saying they were breaking up I was like, "Great! I finally find my favorite band and they break up after 2 days of finding them!!" But obviously, after I looked into it more I realized the media just wanted clickbait and I became a little salty lol
@@jesskb it was fine! i binge watched most of their songs in like a week and was knee-deep in ITS by the time i heard of it so i was like "huh?!" but i soon realized it was less drastic than the media was portraying it as and that is how i learned to trust the boys over the media faster than any army ever.
Everyone always skips the skit’s because they don’t want to read the conversation.. but the skits are hilarious. So thank you😂
waiiittt it'll be cute if you react to live performances but also interviews from that time, i think their debut interviews are very important cause they introduce what the group is all about
debut interviews yessss!!!
It really is crazy how Bangtan came out the gate with immediate FIRE and just dropped it on the world like, "Here you go. You're welcome." But they legit worked their asses off to debut, and you can tell how much it meant (and still means) to them. I'm a fairly new BTS fan myself, I just discovered them about seven months ago, but it now feels like they've always been a part of my life. I'm really enjoying your unique and authentic enjoyment as you navigate your BTS journey. Thank you for all the amazing content!
They were so young and already so good 😭
It’s crazy that their songs are still such bangers after all this time 🔥💜
Tribe Loui, I just wanted to say thank you very much, I enjoy your content a lot. You are a source of fun, joy and realness, and I’m excited about your journey with BTS. Keep being such an awesome and cool person. Have a great week!💜
I agree with you, the fact that they had decided to write stuff that matters right off the bat and make it sound so good already. It says a lot about the potential they had collectively and I'm so glad they found Bang PD-nim and so glad he realized that letting them basically speak heir truth was the only way. I'm so glad for that. It's really quite adorable to see you go through this cause it reminds me of my own initial reactions. It blew you away same way it blew me away. And I know the boys are having a hard time watching their 2013 selves now but man the music is G O O D and the lyrics are fresh still. Anyway. I'll be following your journey. Have a good day Loui!!
He got me acting like I’m listening to Bulletproof pt2 for the first time😂😂😂 also are u gonna be including dance practices??
Im very curious, i know i listened i think to 95% of BTS songs, but i do want to heart part 1
I do know that the next bulletproof song was the one eternal
@@AiBkomachi they have performed we are bulletproof part 1 several times at their 2015 concerts..
You should check it out.
The original was rapmon and 2 of his trainees from their original rap crew.
Later they changed it to include all of the bangtan members.
I'm so elated at the way you're so so endeared by and invested in the debut album - knowing all you know about each individual Tannie now!
Also, I truly appreciate how you're able to distinguish between an initial impression and an in-depth review of their whole album and lyrics. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Happiest first FESTA, Jonathan! 💜🎉 #APOBANGPO10
Omg I feel like I’ve been waiting for this my whole lmaoo😭 I’m so excitedd thank youu!💜
26:14 - 도깨비 (Dokkaebi - “dough-kay-bee”) is usually translated into English as “goblin” but they’re more like nature spirits who are tricksters. The myths describe them having several forms, so there’s an implication that they’re shapeshifters, and they can either prank you or help you out. They also have magical items (like their invisibility hat). They’re supposed to be quite powerful, too. There’s a good k-drama called Goblin/도깨비 as well!
I love that you don't just immediately label an album and then move on to the next!! From their very first album BTS give you something substantial to think about, to the point that I still find myself realizing new things even though I've heard the songs hundreds of times at this point. And they just get more intricate as they go lol! Welcome to OT7, I'm so excited to follow along on your journey with you. 💜
The BTS story is the real David & Goliath story in the Korean Music Industry. It is an underdog story that is not uncommon for small labels outside the big 3 in SK's massive Kpop Industry. However, Bangtan Sonyeondan is the only group that succeeded beyond any one's expectations even those of BTS themselves. The magic lies in how these 7 scrappy and fierce young men who 10 years ago most of them were still in their teens defied the odds, believed in themselves, trusted their mentor & boss Bang PD, shook off all the arrows pointed their way, weathered every mistreatment, every calculated sabotage by the powerful music companies that monopolized Kpop, how they rose above all the negative publicity from a controlled media and withstood a collective targeted multiple social media attack by other fandoms. Truly disheartening. Yet these 7 kids circumvented that prejudiced judgmental kpop system and broke that proverbial glass ceiling over and over again thru sheer grit, discipline and an indefatigable work ethic.
BTS created and developed their own strategy to reach their fans because they were shunned by established TV variety shows. So they started personal blogs, Vlives, their own variety show Run BTS and other media content. They realized early on how Army was also affected by their hardships and vowed that they would always do their best and work extremely hard so that their fans would not be embarassed to be called BTS A.R.M.Y They saw Army as their true friends who like them experienced all the horrible stuff that they experienced. They recognized that Army protected them and when Army grew in numbers globally, they saw Army's massive power and reach. To this day, BTS still asks "Why them?" They know that there are other kpop groups who are hardworking and talented too. What is it that gained them such a loyal following of people from toddlers to the elderly from nearly every country on this planet?
That is the true magic of these courageous, intelligent, extremely talented, honest and humble young men. Those big 3 companies have tried to replicate it. They will never succeed because there is no formula. There will only be one Bangtan Sonyeondan.
Let the other kpop groups make their own unique path to success. Only then will they be able to see if they have what it takes to write their own history.
I CAN'T BELIEVED IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING 😭😭😭
Look where doing the work and not look back can get you??? To every ARMY and Tribe Loui dreaming just do the work ( its going to be hard for darkness exist every where but don't give up) .....to ever 3 dollar and a dream like Bangtan lots not only listen but lets put in the work to accomplish our dreams and you can have no dream, one dream or several dreams just let actively work on our dreams....and just DREAM.
The 2019 live versions during award season for N.O, WAB and No More Dream..were gold! They were so good
It's so crazy how your discovery of BTS and your journey has lead you perfectly up to their 10 year anniversary. In real time you got to see Jin's goodbye song, Hobi's collab with J. Cole, Jimin's album release, Suga's album release, and now at the 10 year anniversary, their debut album. The journey has literally only JUST begun with 'BTS' music lol Let's Goo!!!!!
Yess! Considering it was their first ever album, it really is so good! They’ve always been talking about real things, from the very beginning. “On the starting line” is so underrated, I only found out about its existence a few months ago… it made me think of namjoon’s letter he wrote us for the 10th anniversary where he talked about how different he is now compared to the beginning, but that the worries of his 17 year old self and his 20 year old self are still valid. I love his introspection and the eloquence with which he shares it with us.
Also…… did you notice j-hope’s outro ego started with intro: 2 cool 4 skool?? They LOVE callbacks to earlier lyrics/beats/metaphors in their music, it’s gonna be so fun for you to go in chronological order and catch all the easter eggs and self-references coming up!
the thing about Bangtan is that their love for their music and their craft just overflows. they don’t put out things without their heart and soul to it which only shows how you can go back to their debut and pre debut music in 2023 and it’ll still be a banger. I’m so happy for your journey, tribe loui. borahae 💜
2 cool 4 school is a teenager theme album but still so valid even if you're not in school anymore.
You can see why they've succeeded, they've done nothing but hone their art. You can see how much they care and have wanted to make good music from the start! Loved the reaction
I really like your videos. You show a refreshing maturity for a young man and a zany quality that I find equally fun. Keep doing you, you’re fun to watch.
6:42 it's really hard to overstate how unusual BTS was in the kpop scene of back then and what a lasting effect they had on it. simply by being actual musicians actual rappers sharing their actual thoughts and calling the actual shit going on around them out. all of this was unprecedented. they turned kpop upside down and all the big kpop companies feared them for it and started first sabotaging them and when that didn't stick and only resulted in more powerful disstracks by BTS they started copying everything they do. kpop today is basically a cheap BTS copy.
Yes; you are exploring BTS from the beginning. 😭 you are one of the very few on YT I appreciate when it comes to reacting to BTS. You seem so genuine & ARMY appreciates the care and respect you give OT7. 💜
the way i knew this boy was about to talk about his ex after listening to Like LMAOO
I think you're gonna absolutely LOOOOVE the dark and wild album
They have hidden tracks and extended versions of songs that are only available on CDs.
For example, PROOF has disc 3 that is only their demos and is not available online. On BE, the track Telepathy is 1 min longer on the CD vs the AM/Spotify versions. Boy with love has heavier Halsey participation on the CD than what's on streaming platforms. Plus the CD versions sound way crisper, and the layers of music are just that right level of spicy. Not listening to the CD is missing out on another experience. They make it worth your money to buy their albums since the physical is different enough that you want to pop it in your cd player. I always extract the CD tracks and download them to my phone to listen.
SEA is also a hidden track only available on their CD. There's lots of other ones, and extended versions.
The day we’ve been waiting 3 months for is finally here!!!!!!!!!! I didn’t make a loud random noise when I saw this posted…🤓
So excited for this next chapter in the journey! You da best! Seriously…truly. Thank you for making me smile on the daily.
I’m so happy you can recognize their voices now haha
Es gratificante ver a alguien disfrutar tanto de nuestros amados BANGTAN. Te agradezco la honesta reacción y tu alegría. Feliz Festa 2023 para ti también. 💜💜💜
PD.
A alguien más le pasa que escucha la canción y mentalmente ve la coreografía? ✌💜✌💜✌
Gracias, gracias.
It's just incredible to me how hard these songs still hit, they were really rookie kings
you always have the most iconic yt video titles
IT'S FINALLY OT7 TIME I'M SO EXCITED 😭 I'm so looking forward to your rollercoaster ride to their journey 🤗
Ngl, we are bulletproof was the song that dragged me through this rabbit hole back in 2014 and it's still a banger even after these many years. All they had was their dream and they were so good at what they do from the start and look where they are right now, dominating the world 😭 I'm so proud of them. Happy 10 years together everyone 💜
JUNGKOOK RAPPER ERA DURING THE DEBUT TIMES STILL GETS ME SCREAMING!!! :D :D :D I LOVE ITTTTTTT
That was like reading their personal diary. No real knowledge of what their future would bring. Only dreams and hard, hard work for the dreams of a future. It’s so moving and do vulnerable. This is why thru are so adored and cherished . What a gift. Thanks Bulletproof, 45:30
So the only hidden tracks according to my quick google are on 2 kool 4 skool (the album you just listened to) and love yourself : her. Specifically love yourself her as an amazing track called "sea" and its so fucking good I ripped a WAV quality version from the cd and put it on my phone (along with their entire discography)
Other then that there is a special edition version of School love affair which has two extra tracks over the base version which I THINK isn't available digitally (could be wrong).
And finally their anthology album proof is 3 discs and I believe almost the entire 3rd disc isn't on spotify (except for the song For Youth). Reason being is the 3rd disc with the exception of the one song are all "demo" versions of earlier releases so it's almost like a bonus content cd for those truly interested in the DNA of some awesome tracks
They click clicked bang banged their way into so many hearts ... its so heartwarming to see so many new people getting into BTS and enjoying their music!! I hope you have a lot of fun diving into their albums!!
I love No More Dream. Bangtan really trying to 'wake' their peers up by asking them 'what really is your dream? u want big house, big cars but u don't have any big dreams?'. it's a huge invitation for self-reflection and introspection. youth are just being told they need to study from morning till night but they don't know what they are studying for. are they working towards a goal they really want? have they figured out what they want their life to be? Bangtan is also criticising adults in society for raising up the youth this way, in a system where they feel a despair and fear about being able to dream / chase their own path and passion
in many ways i wish i heard this message when i was a teen. it wasn't to the extent to most korean kids then but i was never sure what my efforts were for -- i just knew i needed to do well at school and i believed the lie that if i did ok at school, my life would be set. i honestly only did real self-reflection much later in life... well into my adulthood.
Suga's first words (I wanna big house, big cars and big rings) have been used in other songs and each one has a different meaning, it's quite a journey. Also at the beginning of the No More Dream MV, the song that is heard when each of the boys is introduced is We are bulletproof Pt 1 (the album only has part 2) and if I'm not mistaken they did it when they were still trainees and it's not included in any album
ITS HEREEEEEE ITS HEREEEEE
WHO ELSE IS HERE SINCE THE ON THE STREET REACTION AND WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THIS VIDEO 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
🙋♀️
🙋🏻
Yesssss!!! OT7!!! It only keeps on getting better from here! You made it!!! 💜
ohhh at last we're here, I am so glad to be here with you and it is quite monumental that you released your OT7 reaction on the day they debuted. Very ingenious indeed, I guess RM has influenced you a lot when it comes to creating good content/s. Anyway, I am just too happy that we are here and no more limiting ourselves to spoiling any OT7 songs or performances. You will def. love this journey as we did...borahae~
listening to path/road on their 10th anniversary... so proud of my seven and everything they have accomplished
I loved that you are starting off with their beginning discography - there is something about their early work that is very comforting and relatable. I think you hit it on the nail with them being genuine. Thank you!
People don't actually believe me when I say there are no bad BTS songs. People have their favourites or their favourite eras but there is nothing that is bad. It is actually amazing and kudos to them and their in-house team. 💜
The Armypedia performance!! It has three songs from this album. You’ll see the line distribution. It’s too good.
I have waited THIRTEEN YEARS for this video
each album is better than the last i promise. they were way ahead of their time, people just didn’t know it yet. bangtan forever 💜
It was a joy to watch your joy. You made it! Happy debut day!! I look forward to you checking out the live performances and for your review once you've had time to listen to the album again. :)
you’re gonna find that as you go through bts’ discography, despite their sound evolving, certain motifs are consistent and are present even in their most recent music. for example, the ocean and desert is referenced manyyy times. it’s really cool
Even in their army love track take two just released hobi references the sea and whalien52… I love the sea and flowers metaphors most of all
I can't believe I never list"ened to some of these tracks. And I love them. I have been missing out...
Bangtan really debuted strong and ready to change the world with their messages and music. They have an strong artistic identity since the beginning and you can tell they were different from the rest. The fact these songs still slaps it says a lot! BTS really has an everlasting discography and full of bangers. 🛐🔥
I'm so happy we're finally on ot7! 😭 I never got to geek over these albums with anyone in my life, so I feel like I'm vicariously doing it through you 🤣
Love how BTS' very first album blew you away! Remember Namjoon and Yoongi were working on this album for 3 years since 2010. There is a documentary where the rest of the team are so worried about Namjoon and Yoongi because they get home at dawn after working whole nights ie writing, composing songs etc. Sleep for a bit and then get ready for classes as trainees. The grind pre-debut was already tough and got even tougher once BTS had their debut.
I think Hobi even said that he wishes he could help them and lift the burden but he was still learning how to rap. Same with the other members - they were still learning. It probably weighed a lot on Jin especially; that's why in their early years, Jin was quiet. BTS started as a hiphop group.
Appreciate your unique journey, intelligent reflections, hilarious commentary and how much you are enjoying BTS discography, Run BTS episodes and other video clips like Bangtan bombs, interviews, Suchwita episodes, sketches, behind the scenes or the making of music videos, mini concert clips etc
Keep up the great work! Thank you!
its so unique how you choose to listen to their solo and latest pieces first. because i've listen to them chronically since 2015, i can see their progression and how they matured thru all those years. but watching your reaction is funny too, bc i understand how *shocked* people are when they found out bts started HARD lol. No More Dream is a STRONG debut song, like the message they deliver in that song is HEAVY for their age, yet they ATE!! and that they self-wrote too!!!! i love bts for their genius lyric and deep meanings they told me. like,,, i literally learned a lot from them, not my teachers lmao.
SO, please enjoy your discovery on the group's albums. i promise it'll get better, wont dissapoint. every album they made is MASTERPIECE. musically genius, and heavy with substances. i learned you like reading their lyrics, so thank you for that. bc many reactors just simple ignore it, smh. and bc you like substance too, you DEFINITELY will love how they show progression of thinking, like how they mature, how they get perspective about life on the way they grow up.
journey with bts and their music is fun :) enjoy! looking forward for your COMPLETE reactions for all albums and singles 🥰
Crazy to think how far they've come and how much they've grown........still feel like crying looking at their progress over all these years. We're so proud of them
It’s so awesome to hear Vocal Line sing with such ROUGH voices for We Are Bulletproof Pt2! They were GROWLING! 🔥🔥🔥
thats exactly how i feel about bts and percy jackson
Path/Road !!!! I love this song way too much ❤
I clicked faster than Jin's rap
hehhehe lol same
