First Time Hearing: BTS - Born Singer HOLY S****

[@jordyn29]

What a perfect song to check out to see their talent. One of my favorites. You're right, Jhope is more on the melodic side in comparison to the other rappers. You also have to keep in mind that they released this song shortly after their debut in 2013. Jhope had only learned rap whilst being a trainee (they all were trainees before debuting as bts). The other two, Suga & RM had been rapping since long before bts. Jhope had to learn and develop is own style over time. Just a FYI, Jhope actually just headlined Lollapalooza by himself and completely crushed it and caused his day to sell out (I was there and it was a 10/10 experience). I grew up on rap, r&b etc. and I appreciate all the rappers for what they uniquely bring to the table. I'm glad that the response to the first video was pretty positive. We strive to be kind, but some people can get a little carried away. Thanks for being open to giving them a fair chance.

After each song you'll listen your opinion of who's the best rapper will change. So in a nutshell all 3 are fucking dope. We do not compare them because all 3 have very distinctive style of rapping. It's all about what you prefer.

[@namjooningOT7]

True like at the end it's personal because all are amazing on their own

[@faithjolley6034]

The BTS rapline is just so versatile. I have a highlight for every song, and it's never the same. Trying to compare them gets harder the more you listen to them and see their range, because they truly can do anything and everything the others can. But I think RM is the most creative when it comes to wordplay/metaphors/rhyme scheme, Suga has the most versatility in where he places his voice and pitch, and J-hope's voice blends between genres the best. Suga's voice often has a lot of nasal resonance, but he's also really good at singing/rapping from his chest voice and head voice and anywhere in between. Suga just plays around with pitch the most out of the 3, but J-hope is a really close second. No matter what genre RM and Suga do, their voices and cadences always have a hip-hop/rap/underground vibe to it, even when they sing. J-hope probably is the hardest to pin down because he trained with Suga and RM, so he reads as an in between of their two styles when you try to compare the three of them together.

[@mintgi4136]

Haha don’t be afraid of the fandom, you’ll realize we’re a really nice community! We’re protective of the boys, yes, but we remain respectful as long as others are. You can dislike songs and content, sure, we don’t get angry because of that. It’s just that we’ve seen too many people who brush them off and neglect their talent just because they’re Asian/Korean, labeling them without giving them a listen. I think it’s not a shock that our fandom’s constantly against racism and xenophobia, that’s what Bts is destined to face in their career. They are insanely talented in lots of areas, really influential in a good way, and are very genuine people. You’ll understand what we mean by that down the road.

[@sandydebord8153]

Wow! Just found you guys and I can’t wait for you to hear more BTS. You’re going to be floored once you realize just how hard these rappers can go and how incredible the vocalists are. j-hope just headlined Lallapalooza in Chicago on July 31st. He sold more tickets than any artist in Lalla’s 32 year history. 105,000 people were there! Suga (aka August D) is one of the most passionate and fastest rappers you’ll ever here. RM is crazy good and is the one that will have the most English overall in his rap lines. Note: You need to always look for their live performances because they are incredible live. They just did a live performance of Born Singer in June. There are also “Explained” videos for lots of BTS songs because they are deep with their lyrics. Last, to really appreciate BTS, you need to watch “Introduction to BTS: The Bangtan 7” by Taylor. It’s long, but we ARMYs will stick with you if you have a genuine interest. My best advice is to either watch it all at one time or split it into two. My suggestions to get you started are the Cyphers 1-4, HipHop Lover and Mic Drop (Steve Aioki remix). They have over 300 tracks/songs in their back catalogue which includes the whole group, various combinations of members, individual songs, mix tapes and now one official album from j-hope “Jack in the Box” released on 7/15/22. All of the members are working on solo projects right now. We expect at least one more release this year. Have fun on your journey! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@jessicapierce3027]

There are people who prefer the styles of one member over another. But there really isn't a "best one" in BTS for ARMY. Each member has a style of their own but they all blend so well together. I recommend songs like Hip-Hop Lover, Rain, Am I Wrong, Whalien 52, Dis-ease. They have a lot of B-sides that get overshadowed by their "pop" songs. And also don't judge then by one song, J-hope does do melodic rap very well, but he cab go hard too. Each member has solo work, so if you want to get an idea of each of their styles listen to those as well.

[@mintgi4136]

Yes! I totally agree with checking out the B-sides, especially for people who are deep into rap and love lyricism. It truly showcases Bts authentic styles as artists. Their title tracks are legendary but they are meant to cater to the mainstream crowd. The real gems are hidden in their B-sides

[@sharonlahaye5803]

RM is my guy too. Suga seems to be most people’s favorite rapper of the 3, because he’s aggressive and super fast. RM is very lyrical (You gotta learn to read the lyrics!) and has great flow.

Oh you havent even scratched the surface for jhope yet. He headlined lollapalooza and his new album is fire This song was released very early in their career. As you explore more songs you'll see their growth as artists

[@kpatoine]

Lol loved the surprise! Thanks for checking it out! BTS surprises many with their versatility and the Western media pigeon holes them into NSync or Backstreet Boys lol There are Cyphers 1-4 color coded lyric videos and a live Cypher Medley w subtitles which are a staple for rapline stans. I Personally like Hip Hop Lover (live with subtitles) as they name drop their rap inspirations like Notorious Big, Rakim, J Cole, Em Nas etc. First time reactors have called Suga the Korean Em for some of his solos. Daechwita isn't one he speed raps in but the mv is one of my favorite mvs ever produced as it uses traditional historic Korean settings, instrumentation, and his swag is unmatched. RM has been likened to Busta and Em on his solo tracks one of the most popular is "Joke" you will want a lyric video for that one he has 9 flows and never breathes. For an English track "Change ft Wale" is great. He's the only member fluent in English and will weave English wordplay into his Korean lyrics. Cypher #2 he uses a lot of English as well. J-Hope - it's been said is the easiest to digest as his rap flow is very melodic. He let's things breathe as he started out as a street dancer. He recently headlined at Lollapalooza to promote his solo album. "Hangsang" live at Lolla has been one of Army's favorites recently. An mv of his I like is "Airplane" it's a chill vibe 😌 ✨ if your up for it there's an intro video by Taylor Nakamoto called introduction to the Members of Bangtan 7. Their discography is overwhelming at first and this video is the most well rounded introduction as it will answer almost every question a new listener wants to know. There's a lot here and you'll have many more suggestions 🤔 just grab whatever peaks your interest and enjoy the ride 😆

[@taetaeshoe434]

Also, as people mentioned already J-Hope headlined Lollapalooza. I was there in person and let me tell you him live is an almost out of body experience, he literally has the best stage presence in all of BTS, and it shows. Also he can definitely rap, rap...after all he was trained by RM & Suga lol. I mean for his first time doing a solo performance by himself he did pretty incredible since he is obviously used to relying on six other people to carry him through a show yet he did so well. Especially, considering they actually added ten extra minutes to his performance last minute so definitely check out his Hobipalooza. Also one more thing Jungkook's (BTS youngest member) Birthday is coming up on September 1st so you should check out his solo song "My Time" which is an R&B track about his life growing up in the spotlight since he literally joined BTS when he was only 13 and debut when he was 15 years old, and now is turning the big 25 this year. The song is even Beyoncé approved lol

This was a great reaction! I enjoyed your commentary about the different rappers in BTS. This is a pretty old song of theirs which was released in the beginning of their careers (BTS debuted in 2013) so they have come very far with their style of rapping & singing. - RM (leader of BTS) & Suga used to be underground rappers before joining BTS and J-hope learned rapping after joining their company so he used to practice with the other rappers and has now developed his own style. - All the three rappers have now released 2 solo albums each, the most recent being J-hope who released 'Jack in the Box' in July. - I personally love Suga's style and songs the most and his second album D-2 has some of my favorite songs on it, but J-hope's albums are just amazing and very artistic with a LOT of fun and crazy vibes mixed. RM's second mixtape 'Mono' hit me quite hard with everything he talks about in it, plus his lyricism is just *chef's kiss* and his first album has some HEAVY and crazy beats (correct me if I am wrong, but I think he used a lot of samples of western rap or hip hop artists for his first mixtape so you guys might be able to identify some of them). To sum it all up I appreciate all their rap styles and songs for varying reasons and they all bring something different to the table. Some song recommendations I think you guys might like- Mic Drop On (Kinetic Manifesto Film) Black Swan Idol Fire Fake Love BTS Room Live Festa 2021 (Its a medley of their B-sides. You can easily identify their versatility and fun stage presence)- kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIPLm5ePqLOqd80 Ps.

One song will not show you their skill set. All 3 rappers are brilliant as you'll soon come to see. I simply cannot any of them above the other. Pure brilliance! I highly recommend reading their lyrics even if it takes a little longer coz their words are a huge reason for why ARMY is this strong. You cannot miss Jhope's solo album Jack in the Box. He headlined Lollapalooza and absolutely crushed it! But again don't skip on the lyrics. Since you asked for English rap tracks by RM, I suggest: Change (a collab with Wale) Champion - Fall Out Boys For rap-centric tracks: Ugh Outro Tear Cypher 1 to 4 Run BTS Disease Baepsae Once you find things if theirs that you really like, you'll find yourself exploring so many incredible tracks. They've really broadened my horizons.

[@bright-eyed5830]

Outro: Tear (live) might be up your alley. It’s deep and has a context that you might not get this early listening to them, BUT the passion and frustration in the performance is unreal. Glad you enjoyed this one! It’s so good. One where he does English is mic drop Steve aoki remix MV. Also, I know there’s a stereotype that army flames people over anything, while there may be some “fans” that act that absurd, the majority do not.

After that, if you're interested, you can also watch the 2022 Proof Live (it's the first song in the 3-song video), and you'll see how much more confident and assured they are as performers.

I have seen all the best recommendations already in the comments so you've got plenty to keep you going for awhile! Also, their music videos typically tell a story and are connected in many ways. Lots of breakdowns out there if you're into that kind of thing. One suggestion I have is do not feel like you have to choose a fav or a "bias". Mine literally changes daily depending on what I am listening to and what mood I'm in. Once you know them better, someone may rise to the top but for now, just take it all in and enjoy the ride.

[@B16pal]

My favorite song with RM rapping in English is BTS' "Cypher Pt. 2" -- he doesn't rap 100% in English, I'd say it's about 60-40 Korean/English, but it's just flipping impressive how quickly he switches between the two languages and kills it in both! It happens to be a diss track, too, which are always really fun.... It's primarily RM and Suga, clapping back at their former underground rap associates, who had immediately turned on them when they left underground and formed BTS. Since J-Hope wasn't a part of underground originally, he mostly serves as a kind of MC during the song, setting up and introducing RM & Suga as they slay their haters. I hope you give it (and all the Cyphers; there are 4) a listen!

[@organiccookie1306]

This track is from 2013, you have a lot of songs to get through… The rappers are extremely versatile and they always complement each other on the tracks, which makes them better. So j-hope’s melodic rap gives the track a special dynamic, which also goes with the lyrics (which you really need to check out). He has different styles as well. I suggest Outro Tear next, which is just the rappers. Watch a live performance with English subtitles, please. Have fun!

As a general note, RM's lyrics tend to be the *most* difficult to translate because he is trilingual and loves to play with language in his lyrics.

There's nothing better than finding people with one opinion of BTS slowly start to see the other sides of them. And most of Army is going to be nice about it. That's the culture BTS I stills in us as their fans. And all of the rappers have their own unique style that somehow works together in their songs. But each of them is a force to be reckoned with on their own. You'll se them throw some English in, and that's just normal in K-Pop. RM is the only one who is actually fluent in English, so he usually has the most. But it's nice seeing you guys try it with open minds after the last video. And don't worry about "catering" to us, we want to see your real thoughts. If you like it, you can say it. But also, if you don't like something, don't be afraid to mention it.

Ahhhhhh niiiiiiiice !! Glad you reacted this song, it’s a great introduction to them and what they’re about ! (BTS is originally a Hip-Hop group so you’ll often hear their influence in their songs and them giving credits to said influence). I don’t wanna talk too much and I’m sure other Army’s will give you more detailed informations. But I have to add a little more : RM is actually the leader of the group and one of the main songwriter (all of them are but especially the rappers). His verses often has both Korean and English wordplays, but for full verses in English here are a few collab he did : Champion -Fall out Boy ft RM (remix) Change - Wale ft RM Crying over you - Honne ft BEKA, RM Thank you !!! Keep it up 💜

bts has solo songs within their albums that can show you some of their styles. But the thing Some of them have story lines or running themes which is why people don't usually recommend them, but if you do it in order you will get it. Rapline for example in the love Yourself albums: 1. Trivia Just dance ( JHOPE) Love at first sight 2. Trivia Love (RM) Falling in love 3. Trivia Seesaw (SUGA) Breakup, questioning relationship? Another trilogy of rapline work from the map of the soul 7 album based on Carl jungs philosophy. 1. Intro Persona (RM) The social mask rm wears in bts. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2q4qmOlpbt5adU 2. Interlude Shadow (SUGA) Suga's fears he faces being in bts. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoeUmHasr9WGr5I 3. Outro Ego (JHOPE) Jhope's identity as member of bts. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gp6koXeYq7N2jsk

I'm curious why you were almost mad that you liked it. Also, a little confused why you didn't know what they were saying? Did you not see the English subs? Being new to BTS can feel a little overwhelming at first, there is A LOT of content out there. They are each individually talented and amazing people. Different styles and unique voices. Put them together and you get legendary entertainers. There is so much back story and meaning to BTS and songs that you really just have to dive down the rabbit hole and find it all out. It's worth your time if your open minded and obviously interested. Before long you'll get better at reading the subtitles and following along. ARMY will be here to help guide the way. Please love, respect and protect all 7 BTS members. If you open your mind this will be an amazing journey!

[@eclipse4257]

Omg, yes. Why were they mad? 🤣

[@faithjolley6034]

I'm not sure about them, but a couple of years ago my friend told me to listen to BTS but I was going through the 'I can't like anything traditionally feminine-I hate pink and flowers and makeup' phase, and the idea of liking a boyband, and one that was getting really popular at that, made me feel a lot of shame. But I got over that and accidentally stumbled into a dance practice video and here I am. I'm sure other people experience something similar; they don't want to like something that everyone else likes, they don't want to hop on the bandwagon, etc. Also, I think that people who have a lot of respect for language-based art like writing and rap are hesitant to trust translations because we understand how much nuance and context falls between the cracks. They were mentioning that those translations probably aren't entirely accurate, and while they're right, I actually think it's super helpful to get the translation like that and then to do a deep dive into the translations and meanings via doolset/dkdktv. It's always better to start off with a translation that's flawed, but is tied to the rhythm of the song, and then make the small corrections as you research.

I think that him saying I’m “mad” it’s almost saying I’m surprised that I liked it. Especially for people of a whole genre of music going in having only a couple of pop songs they heard as reference. Just surprised that they did a different genre of music and was good at it. A lot of other artist venture out from what their “genre” is and when you hear it, your not really impressed or it’s not their sound and they go back to their own original type of music. So, when people talk about BTS having different types of genre in their music, they are skeptical about it. But then, they listen to it and realize that what you said was true and they are actually really good at it, and it still fits them. That’s why most peope can find songs that they like from BTS even if they don’t like all of them. Which I respect greatly.💜

[@ayy_yo6619]

I got goosebumps when you said you actually like them. Thank you for having an open mind. I’m following your journey.

[@led_by_pied_pipers1530]

please dont watch lyric videos through Jaeguchi channel. They're infamous for being lazy and inaccurate in their translations. That's because they prioritize speed and upload videos within minutes of a new song's release. This is why they always have the most views, because they always show up first when searching lyric videos. i'd honestly recommend any other lyric video, even those with few views cause they tend to be more accurate in their translations. having said that, the best translations are done by doolset's webpage (unfortunately they're not on youtube).

J-Hope made history by headlining Lollapalooza this year, with his new solo album (Jack In The Box) and a few of the BTS songs. Even the event people were calling it Hobipalloza (Hobi being one of his nicknames). You've GOT to check it out!

[@abbiec3687]

Hey guys, I loved your reaction. I'm a J Cole fan too, so I was so happy when they released this song. J-Hope didn't really have as long to showcase his style in this song but he really does go in on other songs. I recommend you watch " A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7" just so you can get somemore background on the members and their individual styles, here's the link ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqa5kKx_md2Nhrs ) As for songs if you like RM and want to hear him rap in English, he did a song with Wale called change, you should check it out. I think you should listen to Agust D "Daechitwa" and "Agust D" (Agust D is Suga, but he goes by Agust D in his solo music) and for J-Hope "Arson" and "More".

[@aylablue669]

I recommend you to watch the BTS FESTA LIVE ROOM 2021 (with cc), you will hear several different songs of theirs and you will know what to expect when you continue reacting to them

[@sabahathfathima7750]

Randomly came across this video and I'm glad :) Thank you for such a genuine reaction I thoroughly enjoyed it. BTS' discography is very vast and each time they have brought something very new and fresh to the table. The rapline as well as the vocal line shine through all of their songs equally so I'm really looking forward to more of your reactions on them. Do check out "2021 BTS festa room live" you will enjoy it.

[@some_Phreak]

The live version kills this. You miss the intensity from J-Hope because of the studio production.

[@sc33h3o3]

Yeah that live concert version was great, also recently the Proof Live session version of this is great, followed by the two other amazing songs featuring Anderson Paak of Silk Sonic

[@itsbonniefay2417]

you haven't seen the jhope we've seen, he just headlined Lollapalooza with heavy rock and grunge songs as his new singles, he incorporated rap and singing too. His moves on stage too, it was a masterful hour long preformance. He's very versatile. I actually recommend the preformance to you guys if you want to check it out, you will not regret it believe me. It will also let you dive deeper into each individual member of the group!

[@hiddenpsyche]

Nice, you should definitely watch them perf this live...BTS live performances are absolutely spectacular

[@FranKa6]

Hi! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your reactions to BTS and maybe their solo stuff. While none of them write full rap verses in English (as far as I know), RM has some lines in English in BTS' cyphers (there are four of them and they only feature the 3 rappers), especially in "Cypher pt. 2: Killer". I would recommend checking out each of the rappers' solo stuff as well, like RM's "Joke", Suga/Agust D's "Daechwita" (remember to turn the captions on please!) or any of J-Hope's songs from his latest album. Anyway, I hope you'll have a good week! 💜

Music is the true language here...you will get over the language barrier very quickly with BTS since their talent stack is so incredibly high. Yes, ARMY is crazy but in a good way. I am a 49 year old in CT who has been lucky to see them in LA & Vegas. I have met ARMY in their 70s from Japan & college age ARMY from the UK. ARMY spans all ages, races, walks of life, & personal experiences--yet we are all family.

[@itsbonniefay2417]

the rappers incorporate English into their lyrics but they mainly rap in Korean and Japanese, which is a language I believe they're all fluent in. RM, Suga and j-hope (the rappers) write their lyrics precisely how they should be with intricate details and their bars are fire. I especially recommend their song Ddaeng. Totally fire. Make sure you react to lyrics explanation vid right after to blow you away haha. The rapline also releases solo projects so I recommend: RM: Joke Suga (aka Agust D): AgustD (the song) j-hope: Arson all fire songs, they have so many more but these are great onrs

NIce reaction! there are lot of songs that i would like to recommend but for now i decided to provide you a little information about the rap line and yeah about english songs RM did a collab with wale on a rap song "CHANGE" and that's in English u can check that out. RM is one of the best rapper in the Industry. His wordplay is amazing, he wrote lyrics for many BTS's songs. he is also the leader of BTS. SUGA is the fastest rapper in the industry (kinda savage) a writer and best producer also. J HOPE has his own unique style. He is the rapper, sub vocal and Dance leader of the group. All seven of them have their solo songs. u should also check their recent song "RUN BTS".

[@viktoriatoth5809]

I really enjoyed watching your reactions. And I laughed so hard when you were trying to "rate" the rappers. 😁 You can do that after every song, believe me, your opinion will change every time. 😂 I agree that J-hope is more of a "feel good" rapper as somebody said once but than you hear him on Base Line, 1Verse, Hangsang or their Cyphers and you'll see that he can hit brutal hard if he wants to. 😁

Thank you for your reactions to BTS. If you want to know more about them, you can watch Taylor’s introduction video and xCeleste’s intro to BTS video. They are a hip hop group that evolved to do different genres, and even their own genre. They are amazing performers and are amazing live. So if you can find a live version of the songs, watch those (but be careful of copyright blocks). If you want a sampling, watch BTS Live room, tiny desk, and proof live. For rap line only, please watch daeng, ugh, and Tear. For vocal line, truth untold and house of cards. If you guys are into rap and want to see individual works, watch RM’s Joke and Do you, Suga’s Agust D and Daechwita, and Jhope’s More and Arson. They’re all amazing, they have different styles.

Yo why are you yellinggggggg damn

[@skelly5045]

Glad that you enjoyed this. Maybe Let go of comparison based upon this one song. I might have understood incorrectly, so I apologise if that’s the case but you seemed to be suggesting that ARMY were mentioning JHope because his style based upon this is a bit less RAP and so more palatable for ARMY. This is not the case, but you will discover this as you go on.Watch Outro “Tear” live at Wembley featuring the rap line- RM, SUGA and JHOPE. It is breathtaking . Suga AK Agust D - “Daechwita “ MV is epic. JHope recently headlined solo at LOLLAPALOOZA and gave a masterclass in versatility. Check out “MORE”. I’m not so au fait with RM’s solo but I’m sure “Joke” came up. Re language, the songs they did in the pandemic were in English for a purpose but generally they intersperse some English but the core of the lyrics will be in Korean, naturally. It’s no biggie. Most of their stuff will have subtitles by now. The lyrics are important because aside from the 3 pandemic English songs Butter, Dynamite and Permission to dance, the lyrics are generally pretty deep. Also all 7 of these guys are super talented. Rap may be your thing but the whole band songs showcase their incredible range including the vocal line- Jungkook, V , Jimin and Jin. Lastly, the dynamic you mustn’t forget with BTS is choreography. For a song that encompasses everything-rap, vocal magnificence and stunning choreography , my top tip is - “ON” Kinetic Manifesto MV. It’s a blast!

you keep saying you can't understand what they are saying when the lyrics translations are RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU... The translators in our fandom (doolset, muish, wisha, colinsh3 ) work really hard to translate the korean lyrics to multiple languages for us. The least we can do is read the damn lyrics. BTS lyrics are why army exists. Please just read. Make the video longer, we don't care as long as we see you read??? Also Jhope just dropped a fire album, it's called jack in the box, the genre is old-school hiphop, you may wanna check that out. You can find the entire thing with lyrics on a channel called 'enjoy bts more'. He also performed the entire thing on his lollapalooza stage. RM, Suga and jhope have so many songs together as well as their own mixtapes, you can check those out too. rm and suga will soon be releasing their albums as well. Also rm does some rap in English but only because he is bilingual... They are korean... they will be mainly be rapping in their language. So dont expect much when you ask for rap in English... Map of the soul 7 is their best selling album... why don't you guys do a review? BUT PLEASE READ THE LYRICS... You can find the best ones on youtube in a channel called dial

[@DontSigh]

It's kinda pointless to read the "translation" from the lyric videos though, they're often wrong or oversimplify things. Probably better not to take them too seriously. It's better to use the fandom translators like the ones you mentioned and just catch the general subject matter from the lyric videos.

[@ralphy383]

@@DontSigh the one they reacted to in this video was not bad at all actually... The dial channel and enjoy bts more directly uses lyrics from doolset and the other translators so those have the best lyrics.
