[@cindylepo6784]

Some fun notes: Festa is an annual week long celebration of the anniversary date of their debut. They hold huge fan meetings. (Like in stadiums) where there perform songs, play games, perform skits and gift ARMY with a new song. DDAENG was a free gift to ARMY uploaded to Soundcloud. Thousands of ARMYs attend. They also release fun stuff for a wolle week for their fans...lots of content. The costuming here was also a dig at haters who were saying they were losing their Korean roots because they had become so popular over seas. So they wore traditional handboks and fired shots. 🤣 I think the hard thing is sometimes when reading lyrics, we miss korean references. So if you run into a song you dont understand, there is probably an explained video. Look at the rapline like this: Suga will tell you to fuck off Rm will explain exactly how they would like you to fuck off Jhope will convince you its cool for you to fuck off. 🤣 React to Outro Tear: live at Wembley ...its one of my favorites. Cyphers 1-4 will give you a chance to hear very early BTS and how they grow over a few years. Then react to Cypher Medley Live! I'm 56. I've been ARMY since late 2017 and have seen them several times in concert. They are ridiculously amazing both the rappers and vocalists. Wait to you find the vocal line!

[@Mimi-ii4zk]

You’re by far my favourite reactor sir. I swear you saying real recognizes real is the truth because before I became a BTS army, I definitely was a fan of other artists rather than listening solely to them. I have diversified songs I listen to and BTS is my top 1. I’ve been to many concerts and their professionalism is crazy. Their set list is crazy and they perform back to back to back with full performances. Not to mention the meaning they put to every songs, there’s legit substance. I get why people hate, people hate because they don’t understand or there’s just that unconscious bias. But hey! People will recognize them more, the more they put out their music. It’s only a matter of time.

Overtime the real ones will recognize bro…in due time💯🫡

[@kiaraj6459]

Hey! Thanks for reacting to BTS rap line again! We honestly appreciate your appreciation for our boys! 🫶🏾 8:11 The third dude that went that the other man described as the “apex” of the song is RM. I know other Army recommended RM’s solo song , Joke to you, but it shows more of his charisma and more of an aggressive side of him. Joke was made before Ddaeng (I could be wrong, sorry army 😅), but Joke was definitely his “fuck y’all” song and I lived.

[@dysmissme7343]

Oh yeah- Joke is from his first mixtape

[@noniLaus]

Yep, Joke is from 2015, Ddaeng from 2018. The title Joke refers to the lyrics being somewhat non-sensical because it's mainly a song to show off his incredible flow.

I usually avoid reaction videos because they're often cheap cash-ins on BTS's popularity, but I literally just watched your Arson video, clicked on Ugh and saw you just uploaded Ddaeng - it's a hell of a rabbit hole huh? That was me, 9 months ago. I can't wait for you to get to Mic Drop, Fire, On...Mic Drop remains my fave, most epic track. You HAVE to check out their live performances, the energy is wild. Their MVs are pieces of art, but their live performances are NEXT LEVEL insane. edit: wait I forgot to say what I came to say! That it's DELIGHTFUL to watch you fall for these boys in real time. I think every army will relate to the sense of pride we feel when we watch someone realise these guys are FIRE and it's not mindless hype.

[@msmoses9502]

Absolutely, it's been really fun to watch and cheer him on, while being so full of humble pride and gratitude to know who these boys are ... at some point you're going to have to watch "A Guide to BTS" by Taylor Mari just so you see what talents each of them have and bring to BTS. It's very true, at this stage we can tell who is genuine and who's not. So from those of us, who are enjoying watching you fall for them too ... welcome to the rabbithole and the famz 😆🤣😂😳☺️😀😂

@@susie_gnaY On is also in my top 3 (10? 100?) all time faves, but what you like is subjective and dependent on your taste. We're each one of us one of like, at least 100 million people who would say 'as an army'! I stand by Mic Drop being my fave, along with On and Run BTS, and...I'll stop at three or we'll be here all day ha. Honestly? I've never been into hiphop or R&B, and have liked some rap under very specific conditions (mainly re content/artist and type of language used), but as a genre it hasn't been what lights me up. I gravitate to rock/pop rock, emo indie stuff. But BTS has thrown everything I thought about what I liked and didn't like out of the window. Right now I live in a world where music exists in two categories: BTS, and Not BTS 🤣 - and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

61 young ARMY here. Grew up on 80-90 Hip Hop n Rap. BTS Mic Drop (Steve Aoki remix) popped up in my search looking for the show Drop the Mic back in 2017. I have been hooked on their music ever since. They actually flew to the states for a few weeks and were on American Hustle Life with Warren G and Coolio. It was a life changing show for them. To this day they still use what they learned from that show. Including giving back to the community. They are extremely humble. While they may be at the top of their game they don’t act it. It’s was so funny to see Jhope meet JCole his idol for the first time. Jhope totally fan boy. He was so excited. I am so happy Jhope got to fulfill his dream and do the collab with JCole. I am even more happy to see more people from the States be introduced to Jhope and now BTS because of the Collab. These guys are amazing artists that have been heaven sent. 7 meaning complete, perfection. Thank you so much for giving them a chance and being respectful & genuine with your reactions.

YESSSS Outro Tear absolutely blew me awayyyyy. But it is important to mention Suga made Outro Tear when they were considering disbanding and that they all cried when they listened to it. It’s an important part of understanding the song otherwise ppl think it’s generally about a romantic relationship when it’s so much deeper than that, and deeply personal to them.

The flow,the bars, the wordplay, the trap that reals you in... it's a virtuoso class in rap that holds up against ANY western rap royalty:Lil Wayne,J Cole, Kendrick, Jay Z, old skool gangster(this is by no means a complete list)...what is so crazy is that SO MANY reactors are clout chasers cashing in on ARMY as the biggest fandom in the world and a built in demographic. ARMY can smell the fakes like a fart in church. But you are a real one. You see their passion,work, talent, struggle and dedication the their craft and to ARMY.

[@arlenediaz1023]

Rm can put you in your place and look like a calm cool collected classy individual doing it. DAENG!

[@letygr]

I knew you'd like RM. This song unfortunately is not on spotify (yet) and was basically a gift for their 2018 FESTA (FESTA is a period around their debut anniversary where they basically celebrate their debut) and this performance as you read is from a "party" they did that year to celebrate with us ARMYs so it's not really considered a concert. They also performed this song in 2019 with all 7 members and Jungkook (the main vocalist) did RM's iconic part and did him justice. Now if you want to continue reacting here are some suggestions I think you'd like: - If you want to get introduced to all 7 of them I'd suggest you do "Black Swan" (trap song, from the same album as UGH! but don't let that fool you, they're nothing alike) and Run BTS who are newer. - If you want early BTS I just want to warn you bc it's different. Most of the songs from the albums "2 Cool 4 Skool", "O!RUL8,2?" and "Skool Luv Affair" would do - If you want more rap line you could do the 4 cyphers - Also hardcore rap fans always love Agust D's (aka SUGA) "Agust D" and "Dachwita" songs if you'd like to get into any other rap line member

[@specialk5376]

One of the reasons for 'Ddaeng' only being available to listen to on SoundCloud is because this song was created by the rap line as a gift song for Armies. This song is not officially released on a BTS album. This song was created for a yearly BTS X ARMY get-together celebration week named Festa. This celebration marks the day, month, and year that BTS debut. 6-13-2013

[@sheilayulo7728]

RM, the one in glasses is BTS leader. He used to be an underground rapper named Runch Randa. He was the first one casted to be BTS. His first stage name was Rap Monster. And that’s because as you see he is a monster in rapping. The 3 of them are 🔥🔥🔥

[@TaeChiKook]

If you’re open for recommendations my favorite BTS rapline songs are “outro :Tear” and “cypher pt.3 : Killer” Outro: Tear has a deeper meaning. As they were writing and recording the song while thinking of disbanding.(which they didn’t but it’s raw emotions and hits deep) ‘Cypher pt.3: killer’ .. u just gotta take it as it comes.

RM and Suga were underground rappers so they were pilloried by the Korean Hip Hop community for selling out to become idols. A lot of their lyrics are aimed at the Korean Hip Hop community for looking down on them. RM used to be Rap Monster until he changed it to RM a few years later. If J Hope's idol is J Cole, RM's idol is Nas.

Solo rm go away mf&

[@dinaarmymom9145]

I want you to react to them twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening 🤣 I need to watch you while I'm working. Also, Army can smell a FRAUD REAL QUICK, so until then, we are enjoying your content. Keep doing you. I have to say I am amazed at the number of views for your BTS videos. Even newbies don't get these many views in the beginning. I've been watching reactors to BTS for 5 years and only a few have gotten this many comments and views off rip. Keep doin you! I love your enthusiasm. 💜💜💜

[@G.Rudi.B]

😂😂 thank you love‼️💪🏾

[@ecruflowerfields]

what you said at the start of the video, that's the mark of a true music fan. we armys appreciate you!

[@daffudil]

“ Outro tear” the best song by the rap line

[@firstlast1855]

Shout out to JHOPE for featuring J Cole and reaching new people, in sharing how brilliant BTS truly is. After many years of haters and doubts these 7 men are finally receiving their flowers.

[@chickiemolala]

Thank you for your reaction & genuine comments. Their lyricism is the what made me go down the rabbit hole particularly “i wish love was as perfect as love itself” & “i grew a flower that cant be bloomed in a dream that cant come true” from Fake Love. I cant wait to see what else you get to discover.

[@indianagirl00]

You've been shared in several big groups and we are all loving watching you fall down the rabbit hole. We enjoy watching your true reactions and your words as well. We as Armys appreciate you!

[@coolcoolname]

React to whoever you want. We are here for it. It's your personality and honesty that counts. I am guessing Mic Drop might be coming up soon. It's one of their response to haters. In Korea, Suga and RM got so much flak for leaving the underground scene to go mainstream. The group as a whole get crap as a "boyband" even though they write their melodies, lyrics AND beats. Their label's CEO is a former songwriter himself who lets them create. If you are ready to see the other members shine, maybe Born Singer, House of Cards and Truth Untold. EDIT: Whoops just reached the end of your video. Glad you enjoyed Mic Drop.

[@alura4067]

He said at the end that he already watched mic drop on his free time. It’s actually refreshing to see a reactor get so excited to check out more of their music that he doesn’t focus on making all of them reactions lol

[@coolcoolname]

​@@alura4067 absolutely, glad he is not here to milk everything. Just enjoying music.

[@22_NS_101]

The introduction you made... one word: respect !!! Of course, anyone with talent deserves recognition, regardless of whether we personally like their music or style or not. And if you really listen to BTS you can't help but love them.. their lyrics, their style, their voices... absolutely wonderful. So don't apologize, just keep going!! 👍

[@adeleneliu1179]

Every time the rap line performs, all 3 are great in their own ways. But, Suga is the one I look forward to the most. His rapping flow, tone, emotion, and straight-up kill is second to none. He is brilliant.

[@f3era]

Hey, hi, first of all, thanks for keeping it real, we appreciate it, and for stage presence, you might wanna check out J-hope at lollapalooza, that stage blew my mind (fun fact: thats where Hobi got the chance to meet J-Cole) or for a group presentantion you could watch cypher 3: killer in the "yet to come busan concert" that was really explosive, anyways love the reactions

[@zeligarta]

THIS!💜 I totally agree you have to see J-hope in Lollapalooza and Cypher Pt 3 Killer. AMAZING!

[@BoraNabiCeleste]

The ENERGY They bring to their performances, damn.

[@BoraNabiCeleste]

I missed an opportunity, Ddaeng!

[@magleneayala4142]

Same here. He's the real deal. Thank you for reacting to bts and your support 💜

[@eddencheezee]

The part where RM is stuttering while rapping - he's basically making fun of people who at first insulted them when they were small then suddenly when BTS became big, they want to apologize and be all nice to them. They're calling out all the fakes in the companies and entertainment industry. He's making fun of how they apologize, stuttering and shit. RM's not even raising his voice in the song because he doesn’t have anything to prove to anyone, it’s like “I’ll just give you this real quick, don’t even worry about it” 😂😂

[@KMHSeattle]

Another song with MANY levels of meaning. Triple entendres? RM said, hold my beer. 💞💜💞

[@macairamanu]

Really nice that you said you aren't trying to take advantage of their hype and fans, but don't worry! We ALWAYS know who are the ones that genuinely like and appreciate them and the ones that are doing just to get some attention. Just do your thing, we already know you're a nice guy

[@n_l19]

So glad to see more people recognizing the boys talents. You are not late for knowing them only now. "Don't worry for not being with us in the beginning, the day you found us is the day we debuted for you" (Suga). I love all your reaction videos abt BTS. Keep on discovering them. I am a new sub.

[@haifayassin2842]

Suga once said the day you find them is the day they debuted to you ,never too late but glad that we found them.

[@levillainous]

i need him to react to if i ruled the world!!! grew up on west coast rap and seeing bts try it got me in a chokehold

[@bequinhaize]

Love that song!

[@YULuvThatHipHopShit]

Most underrated BTS song every. That shit is my jam! That whole era just has a chokehold on me.

[@levillainous]

@@YULuvThatHipHopShit frr i bought that album SO FAST. early bts really needs more attention. you could just feel their passion and soul to make their dream a reality

[@pearlsssn]

BTS Rap line is very underated, it makes me so happy seeing people appreciate them for who they actually are. I really enjoy your reactions, keep them coming!!!

[@estochoa]

Cheguei ao teu canal por acaso e...obrigada!!!! Obrigada por respeitar o BTS, tratar eles como ele merecem, reconhecendo os grandes artistas que eles são! Eles sofrem tanto preconceito sem ao menos terem a chance de mostrar seu trabalho, mas você ouviu e entendeu a musica deles!!!! 🎶💜

[@MJ_1013]

Writing and producing a song about haters and it being so well thought out is one of the thing the BTS rapline is so good at!

[@mar4762]

Seriously appreciate the beginning of the video. We know that ARMY may be a little intense sometimes but it's because we see and love BTS artistry, their passion, their talents and their love for music and we wish more people saw past the kpop label and actually heard them from what they are. Sadly many use Army for the clout we inevitably bring so it has been nice to see you are genuinely passionate about their lyricism and rhythm and are open-minded to listen to them. So thank you. Don't feel pressure to keep on reacting to them but if you look for suggestions you should listen Outro:Tear, their live presentation at Wembley. It is a heartbreaking song that Suga wrote when they were considering disbanding after a really emotionally hard year. Also I am sure you will love the Cyphers presentations, there are 4 of them and they will completely show you more of the rap line side. Also if you want to check out the other members aka the vocal line, and how well the 7 complement each other, I may recommend you: Mic Drop, Black Swan, Silver Spoon, Born Singer (a cover they did of JCole's Born Sinner), Young Forever, Pied Piper and Run BTS, just to name a few 😅 And if you wish to explore more of their story, how they went from underdogs to what they are today there are some good videos explaining it or you can ask us, we are always eager to share them with the world because they deserve all the love and respect. 💜

[@kyiahloveshobi]

your genuine reactions and the way you actually take your time to realize the meanings behind their lyrics is the best! army appreciates you💜

[@vonh.7077]

They have it! Been a fan since 2017, I'm 42 and obsessed with BTS! They are true artists with talent and BigHit leading them to who they have become. Love being an ARMY!

[@margo9670]

🫰🍊😽👑PERFECT SONG OF OUR BEAUTIFUL KITTEN OUR KING MIN YOONGI!!! BEAUTIFUL TO LISTEN TO HER LIVE IN HER CONCERT. HE IS A BEAUTIFUL GENIUS. 10 YEARS LOVING YOU, MIN YOONGI SARANGHAE!! 🍊👑😽🫰

[@bbvistas7596]

That hanbok RM wore in Ddaeng now sits in a museum beside the treasured hanbok of a king from 200 years ago. It's like the highest honor. DKDKtv and others doing explained vids are precisely for this purpose to react and spread understanding of their lyrics.

[@malviacosta6094]

Soy tan feliz cuando veo a alguien que nunca ha escuchado de ellos y reaccionan a bts y reconocen su talento 💜✨

[@BrittniNicole]

DKDTV also has a video explaining UGH! too! And I'm glad you are checking them out and having an open mind.

[@mamacitaOT7]

Love watching your genuine reactions! Welcome down the rabbit hole. DKDKTV did such a great video explaining the Korean language nuances in this song…it’s even more powerful than you realize at first listen. Glad Army got you covered! 💜

[@priyanjugoswami9083]

Namjoon has a honey voice and when he rapps he is fire

[@Kdria3]

They did version of jcole born sinner it’s called born singer I think you would really enjoy it

[@ss-ee8ky]

The one who was wearing glasses and you found really cool was RM. He's the leader of BTS, he's all about poetry and Rhythm. We also call him the back bone of BTS as most of the songs have been written by him, in fact the song with which BTS debuted (No more Dream which you will enjoy I'm sure) was a song he wrote during (i think) high school time, in a park. Man is CRAZY for word plays, he's seriously crazy. His songs always have many interpretation so you can take it like any way you want. He's absolutely amazing for it. Since you saw the explanation video, you can see how much of a genius he is since he used 7 meanings in a single verse. He plays with his lyrics so since you appreciate lyrics you'll absolutely love his songs. If you need rap than Monster and Change is the one you can check out. I personally love his songs like Seoul, wild flower, closer, Tokyo, etc. He recently had an album out named indigo (title track wild flower), and an album named mono from before. A new song of his is coming tomorrow (14th Match) in collaboration with an indie singer. The song name is "Smoke Sprite" Hope you'll like them

[@Newyrnewme]

Love the real recognize real! See how easy it is to fall in love of their music, the lyrical ability and they do their own beats, compose and produce all their own shit but they stay humble but proud. Their is a reason that their fan base, ARMY, is estimated to be over 60 million strong. I am a 47yr old mom of 3 girls in their early 20’s. There is a saying that BTS finds you when you need them most. Their music and their love of their fans is what helped me through a very dark and painful part of my life. Welcome to ARMY 💜💜💜. Thank you for taking the time and going the extra mile for understanding the meaning and behind the meaning of their lyrics. 💜

[@phyndalynn]

almost a year later he's kept his word! lots of bts reactions bc he genuinely fell for them, but keeps doing all the other stuff he likes!! Rudi, you should react to XG Tape #1, GALZ XYPHER. they also truely love hip hop, and i think you would fall for them too!

[@le0xx]

2:46 i really appreciate that you give them a chance because you know that they had to struggle with acknowledgment, they did and they still do. You should definitely check out more of their stuff they have a lot of different sounds!

[@sunsetsnpurple7008]

Doolset bangtan wordpress gives a good explanation to the meanings of Ddaeng. There's also a Behind Video in their Memories of 2018 DVD. The thought and creative process is so awesome.

[@yessismiles]

This song is not a streaming sites like spotify or Apple music (army cries about it still 😭) but it is on soundcloud! Thanks for another great reaction and taking time to understand their lyrics

[@katen542]

Thanks for the great reaction and for appreciating their lyricism and artistry. RM has said that he doesn’t have interest in creating “easy” music, but rather music that has enough depth for a listener to continue getting more from it each time they hear the song. I enjoy most of their songs on first or second listen, but one of the things I love most about BTS is that if I put in the work to explore the lyrics and listen attentively to the music, I constantly find new components to appreciate. I’m never bored with their music because there’s always something new to discover, even if I’ve heard a song a gozillion times! 💜💜

[@glossaria2]

Love your reactions! RM's part in Ddaeng is one of my favorite bits of wordplay EVER. I mean, seriously, the man's creating a counterrhythm out of a stutter and making bilingual puns. LOVE. 💜

[@lttwinergy]

PURE GENIUS! Lard of mercy their good. It's already in my playlist

[@egordillo55]

Ddeang is one of their most amazing lyrically complex songs.

[@YULuvThatHipHopShit]

Another awesome reaction. It’s so exciting to fall down the rabbit hole with you. As you say, real knows real and you can just see it in your eyes and smile that you feel what we all felt when we first listened to and watched BTS for the first time. Almost all of ARMY can probably share a story of that hate we got from friends/family when we found them, got excited and wanted to shout to the world how amazing they are. BTS themselves got so much hate over the years, but the real you see IS really there. They are art in every sense of the word and I’m so here for it. So if it makes you happy, you definitely don’t have to explain it to anyone else. Can’t wait for your other reaction videos. I’m sure you’re getting tons of requests/suggestions - just have fun discovering them YOUR WAY. There’s no right way to fall down the rabbit hole 💜 Hip-Hop Phile is freaking amazing and they were so young! But they pay homage to hip hop culture and tell their own stories of how they came to love hip hop. So I highly recommend that one, plus it’s a freakin bop. And I can’t wait to see you lose it on Daeschiwta by Agust D (aka SUGA). If that shit had been Western, it would a won a Grammy AND an Oscar 😂. DKDTV has a explainer video on that one too. Love your true love for our universal language - music 💜

[@dzieckoziemi]

Ddaeng is sth else, musically and lyrically. One of fav track in the fandom. I think it's time to do some cyphers 😏 *whispers* "listen to Cypher 2"

[@PJ6342]

Thank you for respecting BTS, also RM and Pharrell has interview together it is awesome. RM talks about the process and how he makes a rap song.

[@MSOLER1970294]

I love ur words! People needs to knows BTS they are real artists, producers, composer, writtets, dancers, performances..etc...and still humbles ...

[@MummaLlama]

I like to write myself, so I absolutely LOVE the wordplay in this song (actually it's not limited to this song) but RMs stutter-verse is absolutely insane and fkn genius. He always impresses me, because he's doing all this rap, rhyme & wordplay in two languages. I can say this - I LOVE a lot of different music & bands, but never have I geeked out so much on lyrics. I pay SO much attention to them after figuring out how intricately they weave their words - they all have a talent for lyrics but RM is on another level. Dead ass I'd love to write something with him someday. I'm more a fiction writer than lyrics but just to be able to pick his brain, and understand how he views the world, would be amazing. There is a version of this done by the vocal line, that's worth seeing too - it's more on the unserious side, and it really showcases the vocalists talents to go into a different form of vocalization than they're used too. They do a pretty solid job, some more than others but they all have the potential for rap if they just continue to practice

[@geniancatarinaferro5564]

You killed me about Ramen making your face swelling 😂😂😂 Also, RM is a really good lyricist. He wrote most of BTS songs. He’s the guy with sunglasses.

[@georgiaewing9768]

I came because of one bts reaction video but I'm staying because you are a good person with the right attitude towards other people and I respect that 🙏 so I'm sticking around because of who you are and what you put out into the world. There's plenty of people who use bts to boost their views but army knows who they are and eventually their views drop because they're toxic and hateful and we avoid them. You're one of the good ones and I think alot of army will stick around and support your channel regardless of bts content

[@sugaholic9431]

I liked seeing your eyes sparkle while listening to the boys🥳💜I feel your genuine reaction💜bts is deep af😂😂😂welcome to Army💜💜💜

[@parkjiminismylight6441]

I've been watching BTS reaction videos since 2016. Let me tell you, I know when a reactor is doing it for cloud and when they really enjoy it. It's quite easy in fact, they just focus on the visuals, they "vibe" with the music, but don't pay attention to the lyrics, they don't care to focus so they don't pause and talk over the video clearly missing a lot of things. THAT'S why I know you are being for real, because one don't put all that effort if one don't care. Takes time and energy, if you are not interested you can't engage like that. Believe me, ARMY will watch videos that are over an HOUR just to share the experience of discovering BTS and enjoy the happiness being spread, so don't worry about negative comments, real ARMYs know best, we will join you through this journey.

[@mvh1274]

RM es más que un rapero, es un poeta. La rap line de BTS es una pasada, su talento es auténtico.
