Can Each

[@anitaherbert1037]

I saw multiple times RM talked to Jimin about claiming the credits he was due. Jimin always said something along the lines of he would be embarrassed to take credit for so little. He has given many melodic hooks.

[@DarkLight-yn3ol]

It's so funny how some of the "Army's" goes out of their way to downplay Jimin and his success inorder to level up other members. Jimin has the most actual solo achievements and records, not just collabs. Forbes called Jimin the most successful and popular k soloist and listed him higher than JK, because he generated more revenue, with way less expenses. Jimin's unpromoted bsides does better than Jhope's collabs with artists like JCole. Calling Who a fandom push song is insane, when it's still doing more numbers than other members' biggest releases. I genuinely believe every single member of BTS has great potential to become mainstream as solo artists, and all of them pretty much are, Numbers and charts don't dictate everything but people need to stop leveling down Jimin and his ground breaking success because they want the same for their biases. Jimin is dominating the charts, globally all by himself, without collabs and industry push, with his songs, telling his stories. He released two self-written, composed, produced, critically acclaimed, chart topping conceptual albums in two years. Hybe/Geffen need to gets their bs together and give Jimin the proper promotion he deserves, the charts will get real funny for everyone. From national to international media, including BBC, Billboard, Forbes, actual producers and musicians are talking about the lack of promotion and sabotage Jimin gets.

[@lizettesoriano2072]

Hi on Jimin, I am confident that he will succeed as a solo artist and that is where eventually he will be. He is just patiently taking his time and putting the groups inte🎉rest first before his. His fan base are silent, yet devoted, appealing to any gender or age. Everythinf he does is preparing him to be truly a global artist! 🎉

Idk if army's have always been this way or now it has changed but seeing the their judgment on jin is sad man.He has his own pace , ik he loves doing side gigs but completely discreditng on his musical career is such a shame. A guy who can go from Ballad to rock... He loves experimenting he loves performing don't let him down by saying "he's just best as tv and business".

[@ohlookakitty911]

I actually agree that Jimin and JK would be the most likely to make it as big as bts is now, simply cuz they prefer the more mainstream genres of the group. I think if it was getting huge inside their prefered genre they all could, but rap or r&b are simply not as popular worldwide. And I agree with lots of the comments that they will continue as a group for a long time and that as long as they are truly active they will not be bigger than bts but not because their solo careers will suffer. Only because them getting huge as solos only boosts bts more, and because I think while they are fully active as a group(no hiatus, break to focus on solo projects or retirement from putting out content but they still perform together from time to time) they will prioritize the group. I think all of them are at a point in their career that they can do anything artistic and continue to thrive. Especially after their military enlistment is done they will be beholden to no one(except the current contract) so they get to do whatever they want. And they wanted to stay together. I know that we only know them from what they put out and things could be different in private but I trully believe that they are not only good firends, but that they are very in tune with eachother artistically and that they enjoy eachother.

[@gemmahernandezdelatorre9223]

BTS as 7 will always be more popular than Solo. They can be successful absolutely but it will be relative, but you only need to see their Spotify tallies for each individual to know who is more likely to have that kind of Global success on their own.

[@9e55somya3]

This fandom is very judgey type. Jin has been very vocal about not having enough time last year+all the other members releases back to back. He said he doesn't pre-plan things rather do on spot that's why he couldn't release anything for an year. But the way he's excited to always perform be on stage, release another album, on station head party he clearly said during my time off I'll be working on my music. Stop discrediting him as a musician. He might be not upto your status but *He is a musician*.

[@LostNTranslations]

Technicaly he IS already in the tuna industry. Dongwon acquired Starkist so his family's company is actually now the parent company of the most popular canned tuna company in the world. So if you know any h8ers that bought any starkist products in the past couple years, tell them they've indirectly funded the longevity of BTS cause Jin hyung always buys meals for the maknaes.🎉

[@bereasonable8018]

And I truly believe his on camera personality gives him the potential to be the next Jae Suk. Jin is friendly, funny, humble, generous. I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t like him.

[@m.c.m.k.9848]

[@bearcubgag]

The most popular music is pop music - music for those, who prefer smth simple. That's why we have to look at the expected achievements of the part of the group, who are just singers, not creators. The best creator and the person who sacrificed himself and partly his creativity to BTS is Kim Namjoon. He's the only one who is able to be an unsurpassed star, but to be a star and to be the most successful are different things. That is why the group BTS will always be much more successful than a member, never mind who he is.

[@mariainesperez6869]

Why wouldn't they try and pursue both their group and their solo careers?

[@crystalsnow1138]

I agree, I'm sure they'll try to manage both. But like RM said at Festa it became too hard for him to do both at the same time. So I think after BTS release a new album and have a world tour they might do more solos before doing more BTS stuff. I guess we shall see.

[@user-ql2dg6yf8q]

Agree that JHope is quadruple threat+discipline+efficiency=success. But JHope needs to grow his star power to be more popular. Better English skills will likely launch his US career. Jim is the tycoon in waiting. He will own farmlands, food producing companies, restaurants, hotels, fashion brands, movie studios etc…Suga is going to be Hybe’s next star producer and composer, Jimin has all the potential for international stardom, but he is unsure of himself which is why he and everyone are surprised by his chart success! V will likely find big success in fashion and movies. He seems very comfortable in his own skin and is blessed with amazing visuals. RM has already achieved critical successes and has not peaked yet as lyricist, poet, creative thinker, future national leader. JK is on his way to international megastardom. He is not looking back!

[@Виктория-д5ж]

Jimin cool and confident guy

[@LoveWins-c5u]

You minimize Tae to only visuals. lol Typical Tae anti-behavior! Stop degrading him as only a model and an actor. Even this company stan lady here said that Tae can surpass many jazz singers and even R&B. Tae is the most hardworking member, giving your fandom the most content during this solo era but fake Army don't appreciate him! Tae can write songs and even direct his own MVs. He is a versatile artist but so many fake Armys purposely underrate him! PS: I know there are many Tae antis on this page. If any of you disgree with me, it's fine. Tae is now supported by his biggest solo fandom. He doesn't need fake armys, company stans and of course antis!

[@mplahke]

RM has been an amazing leader, but after his Minimoni discussion with Jimin I would be very surprised if he opted for a political leadership role. He recognizes his own tendency to overthink and hates that he has to guard his speech so closely -- I think politics would totally wreak him.

I don’t thinks so because even though ARMY supports all 7 , most ARMY’s have BIAS and to give that full support to each I don’t know but I m sure they will be Russel on their own just not at the level as group

[@beckyheywood1706]

[@anitaherbert1037]

Pop is always the most popular. But its how you measure success RMs album RP WP has received the most critical success by far both with critics and proffessional musicians artists and producers. However with the general public its JK , Jimin and V. Agust D actually benefitted from his scandal though it must have been incredibly personally traumatic for him. He had a lengthy incredibly successful tour. J Hope is only now having a proper opportunity to strut his solo stuff, Same with Jin. So we cannot judge. However each in their own lane can equal BTS content wise but BTS is the OT7 fandom plus 7 solo stan fandoms so numbers game no. V really liked RMs COME BACK TO ME, so he may be open to being more experimental. He said he wished he'd made it.

[@alipotter0613]

It depends on how you measure success. BTS have already proved themselves both domestically and internationally, for ARMY they have nothing else to prove. So this all depends on what they each see as success in their preferred niches/genres and things they want to prove to themselves. I think they have all had great achievements and met many personal goals with their solos in chapter 2. I am not sure if they could ever be bigger than BTS, but as we have seen with chapter 2, ARMY will 100% support the members as soloists and as a group. APO BANGPO.💜

[@geekyreader34]

Considering each member is considered a member of bts even during solo projects i would say each member of bts is already as successful as bts, since they still are bts. Once people start going this member is more popular and this member is better so they are more successful we start wars within the fandom

[@crystalsnow1138]

I really don't know how a solo stan works when it comes to BTS. Like they do they just avoid everything BTS OT7 related? Like for instance do solo stans just not go to BTS concerts, buy BTS albums/merchandise, or watch their content even if the member they love and support is a part of that content?

[@MixutiniPark]

So many lowkey shady comments towards several members. Stop underestimating V and Jin. "Jimin does not have gp, but only fandom push" Girl what?! The denial is real. Fake fans and antis be gone.

[@bereasonable8018]

It depends on their individual goals. Jungkook already said he wants to be once in 10,000 years kind of singer. He will try new things and not be tied down by other people’s ideals. Jimin has the potential too but he will need to break out of the pop genres, which he is very capable of, and sing more English only songs. Who did so well because it is mainstream English. Jhope is very focused and ambitious and talented so he is also capable of it. The other 4 don’t seem to want that level of fame. Edit: I should have mentioned that I do think Tae could also be superstar solo. He could be the next Michael Buble, but I hate to say it, he will have to put out songs in all-English. Like it or not, the songs that had the most commercial success were all in English. It reaches the largest audience

[@withjmtilltheend]

Jimin is doing great in pop genres even though he's not doing all the promotions pop singers usually do, and he definitely has the biggest potential to break out of it given his classical dance background and unisex vocals and one of kind stage performance. All he needs is to appear and speak English (he even got to the same level of success without any company push). Hobi is an amazing performer at the same time creative song writer. He is the most balanced of all the BTS members and he is going to be a much-respected musician in the US.

With exception to V & Jin, I believe each member has already been successful in their solo endeavors in the global market, including the US. As to the question posed: JK can possibly surpass BTS as a solo artist as several of the US musical legends have acknowledged his talent and accepted him. Jimin and J-HOPE may match. Suga and RM will probably do more songwriting /producer work.

My opinions are just that...opinions. JK is the best bet. Next would be Jhope... triple threat. Jimin does not appear to have GP outside of Army. His #1 was carried by unlimited d2c digitals on the artist store. Had there been limits like now, he would not have gotten #1. Even with his current song, the monthly listeners barely go up... signaling it is a fandom push song. I agree Suga is more into producing. V is into a genre that is not as big, Jin is more into business and tv shows. RM is also in a genre that is smaller.

[@stargazing2628]

Jimin does have GP, he's the most popular and successful member in the US and has been since forever. He's the one who's part of the actual pop culture conversations, even before they all had their solo debuts.what he doesn't have is the level of promotion, collabs, playlisting, radioplay that other mainstream artists has, as well as JK. Stop sabotaging Jimin and give him the bare minimum and watch the charts. Promise did 8m in the first 24 hours back in 2018, he surpassed Drake and became the biggest artist on Souncloud, this is just one of the examples. Y'all love to bring up D2C sales, but they existed even before Jimin released LC, yet no one was able to get a hot100 before LC. Who is doing more number than even Seven by JK and Latto did on their respective days, it's the longest charting song by a k soloist this decade and had beyond minimal promotion, poor playlisting, was sent to the radio a month later and is already out of the radio despite their being a massive demand for it.

With all due respect, Jimin wouldn't have this kind of longevity on the charts worldwide (US, UK, Canada, Russia, Japan, Brazil, Mexico etc.) if he did not have some GP recognition. If it's all fans then doesn't that mean that Jimin's fandom would be enormous? There are differences between the members so it cannot be all armys. Also, monthly listeners are not a direct reflection of popularity or virality, but playlisting. We all know that many labels and artists pay to get their songs autoplay, playlisting and radio and that's far from organic popularity. "The hype is only inside the fandom", "it's thanks to d2c store" Literally repeating what antis say about the members. You are acting like d2c was the cheat code for success when it was not. Muse was released when there was no d2c and it has had great longevity. Don't make it too obvious that you don't like some of the boys.

JK is almost there! He just released just one solo album and went to military and his music is speaking for himself breaking all sort of records! Most importantly gp has acknowledged him! He's not a one hit wonder! He got plenty of hits in one album! It's crazy if you think about that! if he's ready to take a risky and a crucial decision to break down a full solo career we can't even imagine where he's gonna stop he got that much potential! Next I'd say Jhope! He's such a natural star! He sings dances raps last but not least PERFORMS!! Both of his album releases are bops! Specially HOTS! That album had so much potential but him not being here to promote it was such a negative point! He has a discography full of bops which he can perform anywhere without any doubt! Giving him a tour is one of the best decisions bighit has ever taken! Next definitely Suga/Yoongi/AgustD! As a rapper he got so much potential to be acknowledged as a solo artist! Adds his producing and composing skills! Daechwita is getting nearly 1M daily streams despite being almost 5 years old song! I'm pretty sure this is gp not only Armys! Next RM!! After RPWP released I have this one thing in my mind that album is gonna get bigger in the future like it's not for today it's for tomorrow! That genre fits him so much! It's already the most critically acclaimed album by a kpop artist! I think he got something to do with this type of raw, authentic indie pop genre Next I'd say Taehyung! He likes jazz and almost every song he's done is jazz only friends is an exception! Being the only member in BTS who follows this he got a big chance to be acknowledged by gp including jazz lovers! A lot of ppl might have liked his style of music and follow him! Next I'd say Jimin! Synth pop fits him so much! I'd choose like crazy over who any second as lc vibe is for him! Who got a heavy auto tune what makes the whole song feels weird! But be mine is so good Latin pop fits him too! One thing I'd say about his solo career he lacks gp support! Feels like everything is just fandom push! Yep Armys played a lot when it comes to BTS's success but if they wanna be a successful solo artist they should definitely have a gp support! Idk why but I feel like Jimin's songs are hardly acknowledged by gp! Next Jin! Ykw he got so much potential in soft rock and Brit rock! HAPPY is one of my favorite solo albums! RW is my favorite and another level is seriously on another level! Love how he broke the stereotypical way of thinking of some ppl like "he only do ballads" he showed ppl what can he do as a solo artist and I love it! Tracks like running wild, another level and heart by the window got that mainstem vibe!

[@LoveWins-c5u]

Lol. As usual, Army underrate Taehyung! He can be an actor, jazz & R&B singer, and even focus on musicals. He shouldn't renew his solo contract and sign with another company. That's it! Actually to most Army, 6 members is enough!

[@MixutiniPark]

I agree with a lot of your points, but there is one thing that really bothers me about your comment. "Jimin lacks gp support" more like "Jimin lacks promotions and support by the label". Jimin's longevity on the charts is proof of the fact that there is actual interest towards his music. It's been roughly 5-6 months and Who and Muse are still charting faily high I might add. Are you seriously suggesting that there is no gp? Armys support all the members so can you explain to me why Jimin is making such huge numbers on different platforms then?

No. As successful as they are, u have to think about how BTS garnered 100M ARMY over 12 yrs with great album after great album. There are far exponentially more ARMY than solo stans. They'd have to repeat #1 × 8 to come close.

[@kaz_72]

It's not just about solo stans. Real Army will support the guys solo work along with their solo stans and new GP they garner along the way. J-Hope drew in so much GP with his release of Hope on the Street with J-Cole. A vast amount of rappers and hip hop fans are invested in his work now. Then there is JK with his full English album breaking so many records and not just of the k-pop world. He is on a level with the top artists in the main stream music industry. He has also garnered an immense amount of GP along the way. Who knows how big each of their separate fandoms will reach. It's still the beginning for them. They will still do group projects but I do think chapter 2 has been a pre-cursor to lure us in slowly to them doing more solo projects.

[@mylantapi-wn6hn]

In terms of song style, I think JK has the best opportunity to break out from the group in Western countries. My only note is that he should continue working on his English enunciation while singing. It’s pretty good, but there is room for improvement because at times, the words are a bit slurred. And don’t come at me for that comment because here’s the ugly truth: there is a significant swath of Americans who are racist, so you need to mitigate reasons for them to knock you down. People who say “well, that’s not Jk’s problem; that’s their problem.” Look, if he wants to reach an audience beyond ARMY and kpop fans, he needs to continue working on his English enunciation. As a Korean-American, nothing irks me more than kpop singers who butcher the English language in their songs.
